The main idea behind the trading strategy of RobotFX Stairsteps expert advisor is to trade breakouts of consolidation zones. It often happens that the price moves in a defined range (ie the price consolidates) for a while, and then breaks out of these consolidation zones. When this happens, many traders set pending orders above or below these zones - if they are following the trend, or at both ends if they are uncertain of the trend - in this case traders should consider using an OCO (one cancels other) approach. When the price breaks out of the CZ (consolidation zone) and hits the pending order(s), a trade will open.
