How to create opening range break out strategy

4 replies

1 year ago #281306

Hello,

I want to create a fairly simple strategy based on a break out of a certain range near the open.

The range is the highest high and the lowest low in the period between 08:15 and 08:30 on the German DAX.

I want to enter long or short on a breakout of this range +- an offset of 2 points above or below this range.

I cant see how to specify this range in builder or Algo Wizard — can you help please?

Hi, what kind of entry order would you use? Stop above or wait for a bar close and then enter at market?

there is a template in Algo Wizard Range breakout. But I am new so I don’t know how to configure. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Risk Disclosure:
Futures and forex trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing ones’ financial security or life style. Only risk capital should be used for trading and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.

Hypothetical Performance Disclosure:
Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. no representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown; in fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk of actual trading. for example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all which can adversely affect trading results.
