Break and Follow Trend

Break Trend is an automated Trendline Breakout Expert Advisor for MetaTrader 5, designed to identify confirmed ZigZag swing structures and trade breakouts from dynamic Support and Resistance trendlines.

The EA focuses on a simple concept:

Identify Swing Structure → Draw Trendline → Wait for Breakout → Confirm Candle Close → Execute Trade

Key Strategy

Break Trend uses confirmed ZigZag swing points to build two dynamic trendlines:

Resistance Trendline – HH → LH

The EA identifies a confirmed Higher High (HH) and Lower High (LH) and connects them to create a dynamic Resistance Trendline.

When price closes above the Resistance Trendline, the EA can generate a Buy signal.

Support Trendline – LL → HL

The EA identifies a confirmed Lower Low (LL) and Higher Low (HL) and connects them to create a dynamic Support Trendline.

When price closes below the Support Trendline, the EA can generate a Sell signal.

Confirmed ZigZag Structure

The EA is designed to use confirmed ZigZag swing points rather than relying on an unconfirmed current swing.

When a new confirmed ZigZag structure appears, Break Trend can update the active Support and Resistance trendlines and extend them into future price action.

This allows the EA to continuously adapt to new market structures.

Breakout Confirmation

Break Trend uses a closed candle to confirm a breakout.

BUY

Price closes above the Resistance Trendline.

HH → LH → Resistance Breakout → BUY

SELL

Price closes below the Support Trendline.

LL → HL → Support Breakout → SELL

The EA is designed to avoid repeatedly entering on the same breakout candle.

Designed for Different Market Conditions

Break Trend is designed around market structure and breakout behavior rather than relying on a large number of traditional indicators.

The objective is to identify important swing structures, establish dynamic trendlines, and automatically react when price breaks those levels.

Important Note

Trading results depend on the selected symbol, timeframe, broker conditions, spread, volatility, and input parameters.

Past backtest results do not guarantee future performance.

Break Trend is a trading automation tool and should be tested carefully in the MetaTrader 5 Strategy Tester and on a demo account before being used with real funds.
