Overview

Developed primarily for the EUR/USD pair on the daily timeframe, the robot identifies instances where a trading day price range is entirely contained within the previous day range. It executes trades using fixed lot sizing and provides configurable risk controls, including optional stop loss and take profit levels. The system can also automatically exit trades if the specific technical conditions are no longer met. Documentation is limited to code comments.
