IMPORTANT — supported symbols only
This EA trades ONLY on: XAUUSD (Gold), US30 / DJ30 / DOW, USTEC / NAS100 / US100, DE40 / GER40 / DAX. Attach it to one of these charts. On any other symbol the EA stays idle by design (no panel, no trading) — this protects you from running it on an untuned instrument. If you see no panel, you are on an unsupported symbol: switch the chart to one of the four above.
Not another gold bot — a portfolio of four uncorrelated breakout edges
Most breakout EAs trade a single symbol (usually gold) with one setup. Sentinel Breakout Portfolio runs four independent opening-range breakout strategies — Gold, US30, US Tech 100 and Germany 40 — each tuned to its own market session, in one EA.
The idea is not one "holy grail" strategy. It is diversification: the four edges are near-zero correlated, so when one instrument draws down, the others tend to hold — the combined equity is smoother than any single instrument.
How it works
Each instrument trades the breakout of its opening range at the moment that matters for it:
- Gold — the London-to-New-York window.
- US30 / US Tech 100 / Germany 40 — the US cash-session open, where index momentum is cleanest.
The EA builds the range from tick data, places OCO stop orders on both sides, cancels the opposite side once one triggers, trails the stop and force-closes at a defined session end. No grid. No martingale. No averaging. Every trade has a real, defined stop from the first second.
Verified on 10+ years of real-tick data (Gold)
The gold engine was validated on 10+ years of real-tick history (2016-2026): Profit Factor 1.28 across roughly 2,000 trades, steady equity growth on 1% risk. The other three instruments use the same engine and method; because deep tick history for indices is broker-dependent, their live verification is provided through the monitoring signal.
How it was built
The presets were not curve-fitted to a pretty line. They were selected by scanning the full session-hour space to find where an edge actually exists, discarding windows and instruments where it does not, tuning the survivors, and validating out-of-sample. We also tell you the honest parts: US30 is the weakest of the four on its own, and the news filter is live-only, so real results already avoid news the historical curve does not.
What you get
