UPDATED 15.10.2025 - Improvement to Prop Firm Module
Overview
White Rabbit is a professional time range breakout Expert Advisor developed from years of manual trading experience. Designed for traders who demand precision and flexibility, it captures high-probability breakout opportunities across any market and timeframe while providing advanced risk management tools specifically tailored for both retail and prop firm trading.
Core Breakout Strategy
White Rabbit identifies high and low ranges within customizable time periods and executes breakout trades when price decisively breaks these levels.
Visual Trading Zones
- Automatically draws breakout boxes on your chart
- Clear visualization of high/low ranges for each session
- Works on any single timeframe from M1 to H4
Dual Breakout Methods
- Box Size Method: Stop loss and take profit calculated from the high-low range of the breakout period with risk-reward ratios
- Fixed Pips Method: Traditional fixed pip-based stop loss and take profit for precise control
- Choose the method that matches your trading style and market conditions
Advanced Entry Management
Entry Buffers for False Breakout Protection
- Requires price to break beyond the high/low by a specified number of pips
- Prevents premature entries on minor level touches
- Adjustable buffer sizes allow conservative or aggressive entry approaches
- Ideal for volatile markets where false breakouts are common
Intelligent Order Placement
- Uses stop orders positioned above/below breakout levels with buffer distance
- Automatically converts stop orders to limit orders when trailing stop or breakeven is triggered
- Captures retracement entries after initial breakout using dynamic price levels
- Maximizes opportunity while protecting capital
Box Size Filters
- Maximum Box Size Filter: Prevents trades when the breakout range is too large, avoiding low probability setups in overly volatile conditions
- Minimum Box Size Filter: Ensures sufficient range exists for meaningful breakouts, filtering out consolidation periods with minimal movement
- Customizable thresholds allow adaptation to different instruments and market conditions
Slippage Control
- Set maximum acceptable slippage in pips
- Protects against poor execution during volatile market conditions

Flexible Risk Management
White Rabbit offers three distinct position sizing methods to match your trading approach:
Fixed Lot Size

- Simple and predictable position sizing
- Ideal for traders with strict position size requirements
Fixed Money Amount

Fixed Percent of Balance

- Lot size dynamically adjusts based on stop loss size and current balance
- Professional risk management that scales with account growth
- Recommended for long-term capital preservation and growth
All methods automatically calculate appropriate lot sizes based on your stop loss settings, ensuring precise risk control on every trade.
Session Time Management
Flexible Trading Windows
- Define breakout period (e.g., 8:00 AM to 9:00 AM broker time)
- Set session end time for order management (e.g., keep orders active until 6:00 PM)

- All times based on your broker's server time
Time to Close Feature

- Works regardless of profit or loss status

Important Notes
The EA requires optimization for each instrument due to differences in pip values, volatility, and market behavior. Take time to backtest and forward test before live trading. Start with the provided set files and adjust parameters based on your specific broker conditions, instrument characteristics, and risk tolerance.
Past performance does not guarantee future results. Proper optimization, risk management, and understanding of market conditions are essential for success. Always test on demo accounts before risking real capital.
