Shauns Range Breaker EA
- Experts
- Shaun Mark Featherstone
- Versione: 1.0
Shaun’s Range Breaker EA (FREE) is a breakout‑based Expert Advisor designed to let traders test the core strategy safely and easily, with strict risk limitations. It automatically trades when the current candle’s range expands beyond an average‑bar threshold and can optionally use RSI, time and spread filters to refine entries.
This FREE version is ideal if you want to:
- See how the strategy behaves on your broker and symbols
- Forward‑test on demo or small live accounts
- Evaluate the entry/exit logic and dashboard interface
- Decide whether to upgrade to the Full Version for full control
The core trading logic in the FREE and FULL versions is the same.
The differences are in risk and configuration limits.
🔑 Key Features (FREE Version)

🔒 FREE Version Limitations
To keep this version safe and clearly “trial focused”, a few parameters are locked internally:
-
Fixed Lot Size – 0.01
- Lot size is always 0.01, regardless of account size.
- Inputs show “Lots & Risk”, but in the FREE version these are display only.
- Ideal for testing the logic without risking large volume.
-
Maximum Positions – 3 Trades
- The EA will never exceed 3 open positions (across buy/sell for its magic number).
- Great for understanding how the grid/expansion logic layers trades without large exposure.
-
Fixed Trading Session – 03:00 to 23:00 (Server Time)
- The time filter is always enabled internally.
- Inputs explain the schedule but cannot be changed in the FREE version.
- Prevents 24/7 over‑trading while still capturing the active market session.
-
Account Protection Removed
- Unlike the private/full account‑restricted versions, this FREE EA will run on any account number, so you can test it freely on any broker and any MT4 account.
All other features (RSI filter, spread filter, day filter, trailing stop, basket TP, dashboard, manual buttons, etc.) are fully available so you can experience how the EA behaves in real time.
🧪 Recommended Use of the FREE Version
- Attach it to demo charts first (for example, major FX pairs, gold, XAUUSD, indices).
- Leave the lot at 0.01 and observe:
- How often it enters
- How the grid builds up to 3 positions
- How basket profit behaves with different ProfitPips values
- Impact of turning RSI / spread / day filters on and off
- Once you are familiar with the behaviour and results, consider upgrading to the full version for complete control.
