Hi igorad and newdigital,
is it also possible, to get highest high and lowest low + buffer of last specific time (for example of the last hour) for placing the pending orders instead of just pip distance from price?
This kind of range movement during the Bank of England Minutes news event made some small losses. And it is good that stop loss value is just 30 pips only:

I changed stop loss from 30 to 100 - it is very risky but I wwill monitor the trades during the 15 minutes after news event (and close them after 15 minutes).
Let's see how it will be going on

As you remember - the most tradable economic calendar was forex-factory calendar. I mean: if it is high impacted news event (red color on their calendar) so it will be good price movement (we can trade it). For now - dailyfx calendar is more tradable than ff one sorry.
Just my imagination
High impacted news event is going on for now (it is for EUR at 09:00 GMT):
