Session Range Breakout Pro

Session Range Breakout Pro identifies a price range during a configurable time window and places pending orders at the range boundaries. When one order is triggered, the opposite is automatically cancelled.

Key Features:

• Flexible range and session times — works on any session (Asian, London, New York)
• Advanced risk management — risk a fixed percentage, fixed amount, or fixed lot size per trade
• Accurate lot sizing — handles all instruments and account currencies (EUR, USD, GBP etc.)
• Take profit and stop loss — configurable as a factor of the range or fixed points
• Trailing stop and breakeven — automate trade management after entry
• Range filters — set minimum and maximum range size to avoid low-quality setups
• Auto-cancel opposite order — one cancels other (OCO) logic built in
• Fully configurable time settings — range start/end, order delete time and position close time all set independently
• Trade frequency control — set maximum long trades, short trades and total trades per day
• Close and delete times — automatically manage open positions and pending orders
• Works on any instrument — Forex, Gold, indices

How it works: The EA builds a high/low range during a defined time window. Once the window closes, a BuyStop is placed above the range high and a SellStop below the range low. Whichever order triggers first, the other is immediately cancelled.

Timeframe Range Calculation: Chart timeframe used for range calculation (always use PERIOD_M1 for live trading and only change in tester if you do not have enough M1 data)

(Trading Volume Modes):

VOLUME_FIXED > Uses a fixed lot size for every trade

VOLUME_MANAGED > Uses "Fixed Lots" per each „Fixed Lots Per x Money“ amount of money in your trading account

VOLUME_PERCENT > The lot size will be calculated so that the set percentage of your account will be lost if the inital SL is triggered

VOLUME_MONEY > The lot size will be calculated so that the set amount of money will be lost if the inital SL is triggered

Trading Volume: Mode for the calculation of the lot size for each trade

Fixed Lots: Lot size for VOLUME_FIXED and VOLUME_MANAGED

CALC_MODE_FACTOR > Distance is a multiple of the current range

CALC_MODE_PERCENT > Distance is a percentage of the current range high (for buy) or low (for sell)

CALC_MODE_POINTS > Distance is set in points. One point is always the smallest price change for the current symbol, e.g. EURUSD, 5 digits > 1 point = 0.00001 or US30, 2 digits > 1 point = 0.01

Target Calc Mode: Calculation mode for the TP distance (entry to TP)
