      The purpose of the indicator is not to be backtested. It should be used in forward test after it has been optimized. Rossbot is suitable for backtests.

        I you would like to copy the signals of the indicator, use Rossbot expert advisor and make sure both Rossbot and SSBODynamicBreakoutBox have the same magic number and CopyIndicator setting of Rossbot is true.

              I am afraid it is not possible. Try to use high quality data to achieve the most reliable backtest results.

                There is the “ExcludedPairs” option. Type there all the other 27 pair names seperated by commas.

                        I have added a MaxEntryDistance option and updated the first post. It defines the maximum distance of entry price from breakout level.

                          StopLossType = BoxHeight. I guess I can leave this blank if I set OppositeBoxSideSL to true?

                          Yes.

                          TakeProfit1Type: If I set this to BoxHeight, should I leave TakeProfit1 empty..?

                          No, TakeProfit1 is a multiplier of BoxHeight value.

                          Is there a way to open 2 orders instead of 1 when price breaks outside the box? Most brokers do not efficiently handle partial closes…they close the complete trade and open a new (partial) one. So we’re paying spread twice.

                          There is no such option, only partial exits are possible.

                            I could not replicate this problem, which broker did you use? Make sure you have the latest Volceq version.

                                I have enabled the use of MoneyManagement of Rossbot when CopyIndicator is true.

                                    It is an option of the UpdateMode setting.

                                      UpdateEveryBars option is still valid. An optimization occurs when UpdateEveryBars bars have passed since previous optimization and a complete tradeset has been formed.

                                        I have corrected it and post it again.

                                            I have added the same martingale settings to the indicator and have updated the first post.

                                                Rossbot does not create a new CZ unless one of the following conditions is met:

                                                1. MaxTradeSetReversals is reached.
                                                2. A take profit occurs even if MaxTradeSetReversals is not reached.
                                                3. No trades have been opened during current CZ and a narrower CZ is formed.
                                                4. Price has moved away from the CZ.

                                                  Have the first breakout TP set to say 100 pips, then the following trades within the CZ set to 1:1. Is that possible?

                                                  No, it is not possible with any version of the indicator. The following trades will have a take profit equal to the maximium stop loss of the previous trades.

                                                    Set QuickTakeProfitType to SLMultiplier and QuickTakeProfit to 1. You can’t have a pips based QuickTakeProfit for the first trade and 1:1 ratio for the rest trades.

                                                      SSBODynamicBreakoutBox has an improved virtual trades management and therefore the results are different. Set ModifyTakeProfit to true so that QuickTakeProfit is applied to the first trade only.
