Re: SSBO - The Stairstep Breakout System

Thanks for the kind response Popov.The strategy is a consolidation breakout strategy.And this is how it works:

A typical Consolidation Zone 22 pips tall by 37 bars in length.Trade the breakout.Buy at top of consildation zone and sell at the bottom of consolidation zone. The rules are simple but I dont know how to enter the rules into the Forex Strategy Builder.

I want to be able to set this up in the FOREX Strategy Builder and optimise the settings.How do I do that ?I will be very pleased if you can point me in the right direction.Thank you in advance

Re: SSBO - The Stairstep Breakout System

It is very interesting. Thank you for pointing that strategy. Currently we don't have a Consolidation Zone indicator (at least I don't find one with that name in the repo). Please request that indicator in the Custom Indicators topics and describe how it works with as many details as you have. some of our advanced users may help you with it.
