Breakout Expert Advisor for VertexFX

The Breakout  Expert Advisor is a VertexFX client-side script that trades the breakouts based on Daily bars.

Rule Number 1. Entry rules are evaluated only between the configured times of the Expert Advisor, which is from MondayHour on Monday uptoFridayHouron Friday.

Rule Number 2. Entry rules are evaluated only if there is no open position.

Rule Number3. BUY trade is initiated if the current Ask price has crossed above the previous day’s High. The stop-loss is set to SL points, the take-profit is set to TP points. The lot-size is calculated based upon the UseMM parameter, either as fixed lot-size (Lots) or based on risk-per-trade (PercentMM).

Rule Number4. SELL trade is initiated if the current Bid price has crossed below the previous day’s Low. The stop-loss is set to SL points, the take-profit is set to TP points.
