$22,744 in One Trade? Here's the ORB Strategy That Did It

https://www.quantcrawler.com One of my best trading days ever: $22,744 across 26 funded accounts using opening range breakout on MES. I'm showing the exact trade, complete strategy breakdown, and backtest results: 82% win rate over 30 days, 55% over 1 year. Discord:   / discord   This was nerve-wracking because I copy traded all 26 funded accounts on ONE trade. Plus TopStep Express accounts (29+ total accounts). Made over $30K when counting everything. THE TRADE (MES): Opening range broke below zone, entered short, ran to target. Trade Sinker shows $22,744 total profit across 26 accounts. Also made $1,377 on separate Express account that I let run longer. Transparency: Lost Silver Express account this morning ($2K blown on automation error with Ghost). I show wins AND losses - not just highlight reels. THE STRATEGY (2 STEPS): Step 1: Mark 9:30-9:45 opening range 15-minute chart on MES/MNQ (or any major ticker) Find 9:30 candle (busiest 15 minutes of entire trading day) Rectangle tool: top wick to bottom wick, drag across Step 2: Wait for 5-minute candle body close Drop to 5-minute timeframe Wait for candle BODY to close outside zone (not just wick) Enter in breakout direction (above or below) Today's execution: Candle body closed below zone, strategy fired short signal, entered immediately, ran down to TP, closed out. CRITICAL SETTINGS DISCOVERED: Session End: 11:00 AM ET Best PnL results occur when closing session at 11 AM Trade window: 9:50 AM earliest entry to 11:00 AM exit (~70 minutes) After 11 AM volume dies or slow painful losses occur This setting produces best results across entire year Don't Trade Tuesdays: Discovered through backtesting Tuesdays hurt performance Removing Tuesdays from 30-day results: Win rate 77% → 83%, profit factor 6.57 → 9.5+, drawdown improves Historically Tuesdays are not profitable for ORB Take Tuesdays off completely BACKTEST RESULTS (MES, 5 contracts, no Tuesdays): 7 Days: $2,618 profit $793 drawdown 5 trades 30 Days: $8,356 profit $1,075 drawdown 22 trades 82.61% win rate 9.571 profit factor (removing Tuesdays) 90 Days: $9,543 profit $2,300 drawdown 49 trades 67% win rate 2.89 profit factor 6 Months: $8,325 profit $2,768 drawdown 116 trades 56.9% win rate 1.534 profit factor 365 Days: $14,456 profit $6,068 drawdown 203 trades 55% win rate 1.44 profit factor HONEST ASSESSMENT: Equity curve isn't beautiful. You will lose prop firm accounts trading this over a year ($6K max drawdown violates most limits). Peaks and valleys throughout. This is reality of day trading. But payouts far outweigh occasional account resets. Markets go in cycles - ORB works great sometimes, struggles other times. Been on significant climb since January. I don't automate this strategy even though I built Ghost automation platform. Opening range size varies too much (today was 24-point range - large but warranted). Sometimes too small, sometimes too large. Requires discretion. WHY THIS WORKS: 9:30-9:45 captures busiest period of 23-hour trading window (unless major news event). Volume and volatility create clear directional moves. First 5-minute body close outside range confirms breakout conviction. Today easily top 5 trading days because I traded 29+ funded accounts on this one setup. Simple 2-step process, proven results over time, but requires accepting drawdown periods. You can replicate this without indicators - just rectangle tool and 5-minute chart. My coded strategy just automates the marking and signals. Disclaimer: Past performance doesn't guarantee future results. Drawdown will violate prop firm rules at times. Results shown are real but include losing periods. Not every day produces $22K. #$22kday #26accounts #orbstrategy #openingrangebreakout #82winrate #messstrategy #copytrading #propfirmtrading #tradesinker #orbtrading #930strategy #fundedaccounts #propfirmpayouts #mestrading #donttradetuesdays #sessionend11am #tradingresults #orbbacktest #55winrate1year #drawdownreality #propfirmstrategy #copytrading26accounts #bestdayever #orbresults #realtrading
