I Built a Profitable & Consistent NQ Futures Trading Bot – Results Inside!

[LivePropFirmTrading]

Developing a profitable trading bot has been a long and challenging journey for me, but after 9+ months of trial and error (and creating over 10 bots), I’m ready to share the results of my custom NQ trading bot.

How It Works:​

This bot trade with 1 NQ contract with a prop firm account ($50k-$150k funded account) and uses price action and volume analysis to identify high-probability setups, entering trades only when the market aligns with specific criteria. To maximize its effectiveness:

• Time-Based Execution: It operates during 10:30 AM–2:30 PM EST, avoiding volatile periods like news events or high-volume spikes.
• ADX-Driven Control: It’s only activated when the ADX is below 23, ensuring it performs best in slow-trending or consolidating markets - along with the highest probability to profit.
• Trailing Stop Mechanics: The bot trails stop losses dynamically and sets take-profit levels based on Renko box mechanics, ensuring calculated risk management.
• Renko Chart: Although Renko chart type is not a favorite of most of you - I found that the profitability and consistency is there. It goes based on price action, not time increments.
• Order type: Limit sell or limit buy orders 10 points (1 Renko box) above or below the pivot lines respectively)
