Description
US100 Dual ORB combines two opening range breakout strategies in one automated cBot.
The Base strategy uses the 09:30–10:00 New York opening range on M5. It waits for a completed candle to close above the range and then opens a long position with the stop loss below the range.
The Scalp strategy runs on internal M15 data and trades faster breakouts in both directions. Its stop loss is based on the signal candle and the take profit is calculated from the selected reward-to-risk ratio.
Both strategies work independently, so you can run both or disable one of them.
Main features:
- Base M5 opening range breakout
- M15 scalp opening range breakout
- Long and short scalp trades
- Percentage-based risk sizing
- Automatic stop loss and take profit
- Adjustable reward-to-risk ratio

Trading involves risk. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
The cBot should be attached to an M5 US100 chart. The M15 data needed for the scalp strategy is loaded internally.
I mainly designed and tested it for US100_P. Different brokers can have different contract sizes, leverage, spreads, commissions and margin requirements, so always backtest it on your exact symbol before using it on a live or funded account.
Default settings are only a starting point. There are no guaranteed results and historical backtest performance does not guarantee future performance. Use reasonable risk and test the settings first.
Bot settings:
- Do not touch the base 5 min settings
- you can adjust the RR on the scalp 15min strategy i recommend 0,1-0,2 should work
- no need to touch any more settings
