ZigZag Channel Breakouts with Pending Orders and Fibonacci Exits

Summary

This Expert Advisor uses a ZigZag custom indicator to identify a channel, then places Buy Stop and Sell Stop pending orders near its upper and lower boundaries. The listed controls include the ZigZag depth, deviation, and backstep, along with an entry offset and minimum and maximum channel sizes. Users can also define operating hours and choose lot or risk settings.

After an order activates, trailing can be enabled for the resulting position. Stop loss and take profit are specified using Fibonacci percentage levels, with choices ranging from 0% to 423.6%. The description also lists trailing distance and step settings and an option to display channel lines. It names EURUSD on M15 but gives no test period, trade records, or performance results. The text does not explain how ZigZag repainting or changing channel boundaries are handled, so its signals and pending order behavior cannot be evaluated from this description alone.
