Overview
RH Golden ORB is a range-breakout Expert Advisor for MetaTrader 5. It identifies a price range during a configurable session window, then places pending buy-stop and sell-stop orders just outside that range. When one order triggers, the opposite is cancelled automatically. An optional profit-lock mechanism trails the stop loss in fixed-point steps to protect open profit.

|---|---|---|
| LocalTimeZoneOffset | 0 | Your UTC offset (e.g. -4 for EDT, +1 for CET) |
| AutoDetectBrokerTime | true | Auto-detects broker offset every 6 hours. Keep true. |
v1.61 fix: No more INIT_FAILED on weekends. EA defaults to offset 0 when market is closed and corrects itself on Sunday open.

Lot Size
| Parameter | Default | Description |

| UseFixedLotSize | false | true = fixed lot / false = risk % (recommended) |
| FixedLotSize | 0.01 | Used only if UseFixedLotSize = true |
| RiskPercent | 1.0 | % of balance risked per trade |
Formula: Lot = (Balance × Risk%) ÷ (SL points × point value) Lot is capped automatically if margin is insufficient.
Start at 0.5% on live accounts. 1% is the recommended maximum.
Stop Loss & Take Profit
| Parameter | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| StopLossPoints | 4000 | SL distance in points. 0 = opposite range boundary |
| TakeProfitPips | 0 | TP in pips. 0 = disabled |
Points reference (5-digit broker): 50 pips = 500 pts | 100 pips = 1000 pts | 400 pips = 4000 pts
When StopLossPoints = 0: Buy SL → rangeLow, Sell SL → rangeHigh.
