Description

This Expert Advisor (EA) trades untested breakouts of variable periods when the market is calm and moving in a predictable way. It is designed for short-term trading and takes advantage of the sharp increase in volatility that occurs when price breaks through a previously untested level. This often leads to a quick profit or a small loss based on a time expiration.

The EA performs best in orderly, liquid markets and may underperform in very short timeframes or thinly traded instruments.

Frequently Asked Questions

The best-performing instruments for this EA are EURUSD and XAUUSD, using timeframes between D1 and H4. These combinations tend to offer more reliable breakout behavior and better liquidity, which supports the EA’s trading logic.

Setfiles are provided for major currency pairs and gold, covering timeframes from D1 down to H1. These configurations are optimized for specific market behaviors and serve as a reliable starting point, though you’re encouraged to experiment for best results.

No, the EA is a fully independent system and does not require any external indicators, including the Day Trading Indicator, to operate correctly or efficiently.

The EA trades using pending orders placed at bar closing, so slippage has minimal impact on execution. However, in volatile markets or with poor broker execution, occasional slippage may still occur.

Yes, higher spreads can reduce the frequency of trades, as they may cause the EA to skip breakout opportunities that no longer meet profitability criteria. Tight spreads are recommended for optimal results.

This is completely normal. The EA is designed to wait for high-quality breakout scenarios and will only act when conditions align with its strategy. Patience is key, as overtrading is intentionally avoided.

The EA places pending orders at the close of a bar when it detects a valid breakout range. It will not place trades in conditions lacking price structure or if gaps have not been closed.

Yes, all pending and open orders are automatically closed on Friday night to avoid holding positions over the weekend, reducing exposure to gap risk and illiquid markets.

This EA performs best in stable, orderly markets where price behaves predictably within technical ranges. It is not suitable for extremely small timeframes or thinly traded instruments, which often display erratic volatility.

Yes, the EA includes configurable filters to enable or disable trading during the Asian, European, or American sessions. You can tailor its operation to fit your preferred schedule or market conditions.

Gap protection prevents the EA from placing trades if a weekly or daily price gap remains unfilled. Enabling this filter increases trade quality and avoids risky entries during unstable conditions.

Once a trade is opened, the EA manages it with predefined stop-loss and take-profit levels, break-even logic, and an optional trailing stop. Trades that don’t hit TP or SL are closed based on a user-defined expiration period.

Yes, the EA is NFA and FIFO compliant. It can be safely used with US brokers and on netting accounts without violating trading restrictions.

Yes, experimenting is encouraged. Start with the provided setfiles and make incremental adjustments to fine-tune the EA for different symbols or trading behaviors. Always backtest and monitor performance before going live.
