XAUUSD daily-range breakout: trades the first break of the 20-day high or low, only in the direction of the trend, with a real stop loss on every trade.
Rules:
- The 20-day high/low is fixed from daily bars. The first break of the day gives the direction: above = BUY, below = SELL. One trade per day.
- The optional trend filter skips a break that goes against the 21-day trend (the classic turtle rule).
- Stop = 0.35% of price and target = 3% of price by default; ATR-based stop/target are available instead.
- Entry window 02:00–22:00 server time. Optional forced exit at a fixed hour; by default the stop or target decides (the target usually needs several days).
- Risk = % of the starting balance; optional equity target, daily loss limit and daily guard for prop accounts.
The numbers below are a backtest, real ticks, on the exact file that is sold (XAUUSD H1, 2025.05–2026.09, $100,000 deposit, default settings). Real trading will differ.
- Net profit +113,879 (about +113.9%) over 17 months, 100% real ticks (145 million ticks). 56 positions (112 deals).
- Max equity drawdown 9.26%; max balance drawdown 3.19%; profit factor 3.93.
- Best trade +8,569.55; worst trade -1,334.27.
What it does not do: no martingale, no grid, no averaging, no hedging. One position at a time. No hidden recovery after a loss.
Built and tested for XAUUSD. On other symbols the settings still run, but no edge has been found there. Hours are broker server time.
