Northvale Session Breakout
Most Expert Advisors on the Market look perfect on a chart and fall apart on a live account. They hide risk inside grids, averaging and martingale, or they’re tuned to a single symbol and a single year.
Session Breakout was built the other way round. It trades one of the most persistent behaviours in global markets, the way price breaks out of quiet sessions as liquidity changes hands between financial centres. It applies that behaviour mechanically, with fixed risk, across four uncorrelated markets.
What it does
- Trades GBPUSD, EURJPY, BTCUSD and ETHUSD from a single chart. Broker symbol names (suffixes like .r , m , .cash ) are detected automatically.
- Every breakout trade is placed with a stop-loss from the moment it opens, and is closed by the end of the trading day. No overnight surprises from the breakout engine.
- A second, independent engine trades Bitcoin pullbacks within an established trend, with a strictly capped position size.
- No grid, no martingale, no averaging into losers, no hidden recovery logic. What you see in the Strategy Tester is what it does.
