RangeBurst
Profit from breakout moves during your chosen trading hours automatically
RangeBurst is a custom time-range breakout Expert Advisor that captures breakouts from defined market ranges. You set the range hours — RangeBurst records the high and low, then places pending orders above and below the range. When price breaks out, the EA enters automatically and manages your position with an opposite-level stop, trailing stop, and time-based exit. Built for traders who want a structured, rules-based breakout strategy without manual monitoring.
Advantages
- Trade your schedule — Define the range hours that match your strategy, whether Asian session, London open, or New York close
- No manual chart watching — RangeBurst records range boundaries and places breakout orders automatically
- Clear risk management — Built-in opposite-level stop, trailing stop, spread filter, and daily trade limits
- Flexible trade direction — Choose single-direction, buy-only, sell-only, or both-direction breakout trading
- Works across markets — Suitable for forex, indices, and CFD instruments with time-based price behavior
Features
- Custom range timer — Set range start hour/minute and end hour/minute down to the exact minute
- Automatic breakout orders — Places Buy Stop at range high and Sell Stop at range low after range closes
- Opposite-level stop loss — Closes positions automatically if price retraces to the opposite range boundary
- Trailing stop protection — Locks in profits once a configurable profit threshold is reached
- Time-based profit exit — Closes all positions at your chosen daily exit time
- Volatility qualification filter — Skips ranges too narrow relative to ATR, avoiding false breakouts in quiet markets
- Pending order expiry — Auto-deletes unfilled orders after N bars to avoid stale entries
- Daily trade limit — Caps the number of trades per day for controlled exposure
- Risk-based or fixed lot sizing — Choose percentage risk per trade or a fixed lot size
- Spread filtering — Skips entries during high spread conditions
- Multi-day range support — Handles ranges that cross midnight seamlessly
- Visual chart elements — Displays range boxes, high/low lines, and hour markers for full visibility
How to Get Started
1. Attach RangeBurst to any MT5 chart and timeframe
2. Set your preferred range hours (e.g., start 00:00, end 07:30)
3. Choose your trade direction (single, buy-only, sell-only, or both)
4. Configure risk settings — fixed lot or percentage-based, trailing stop, and exit time
5. The EA automatically records the range, places breakout orders, and manages trades
Usage Tips
- For best results, choose range hours that match high-volatility sessions (London open, US open) or consistent intraday patterns
- Use the ATR volatility filter to avoid trading narrow, low-signal ranges
- For conservative trading, use Single direction mode — one breakout trigger per range
- Set the exit time after your target session ends to capture full moves while avoiding overnight gaps
- Start with the opposite-level stop enabled — it's the natural invalidation point for range breakouts
- Use daily trade limits to maintain consistency and avoid over-trading on volatile days
- Test on different instruments — range behavior varies between forex pairs, indices, and commodities

Risk Disclosure
Trading financial markets involves substantial risk of loss. Past performance does not guarantee future results. This product is not suitable for all investors. Never risk more than you can afford to lose. Results shown in backtests are hypothetical and may not reflect live trading conditions. RangeBurst uses a breakout strategy that may underperform in low-volatility or sideways markets. Pending orders may not trigger if the range is too narrow or the breakout never occurs.
