The Only EURUSD Trading Strategy You Need
I got the idea to this strategy from a youtube video uploaded by Trade Beta. It is designed to capture the early market move of major forex pair EURUSD at beginning of New York Stock Exchange (13:30 GMT). Trade Beta tested his strategy on the 5 minute chart. I have set all parameters to same values as shown in the video.

The strategy creates two pending orders at the recent swing high and low. Once the first pending order entered, the remaining one is cancelled. Latest at the end of market session all pending orders are cancelled and all open trade are closed as well.

In rare case that price at session opening is above swing high, only a pending sell stop order is created at swing high price. And in case price is below swing low, a pending buy stop order is created.

Settings

• Trading Time - default: New York Stock Exchange opening hours. Pending orders are created at the close of the first candle within the session.
  
• Swing High Source / Bars - default: High / 5 bars. Used to find the latest swing high within a range of 5 bars left and right. Price is used for buy stop order.
  
• Swing Low Source / Bars - default: Low / 5 bars. Used to find the latest swing low within a range of 5 bars left and right. Price is used for sell stop order.
  
• Stop Loss Type - default: ATR. You can switch between stop loss calculation based on Average True Range value or fixed value.
  
• ATR Length / Factor / TP Ratio - default: 14 / 2.0 / 2.0. Used to calculate the Stop Loss as ATR * Factor and Take Profit as Stop Loss * TP Ratio.
  
• FIX Stop Loss / Take Profit - default: 10 pips / 20 pips. In case you select Stop Loss Type = FIX, these value swill be used.
