Short description

EdgeForge Breakout Pro MT5 is a professional breakout Expert Advisor for Gold / XAUUSD. It uses historical unbroken H1 swing levels, adaptive pending orders, break-even protection, trailing stop management and optional prop-firm friendly risk controls.

The EA is built around a swing-level breakout concept. Instead of using a simple high/low channel, EdgeForge Breakout Pro searches historical H1 price action for important unbroken swing levels and uses these areas for adaptive Buy Stop and Sell Stop order placement.

The strategy is designed to capture strong breakout movements while controlling risk with a fixed stop loss, break-even protection and a dynamic trailing stop.

EdgeForge Breakout Pro does **not** use martingale, grid averaging or recovery baskets.

Strategy concept

EdgeForge Breakout Pro identifies historically important unbroken swing levels on the H1 chart. These levels often behave as potential breakout zones.

When a valid level is found, the EA places adaptive pending orders around the level. Once the pending order is triggered, the position is managed with:

- initial stop loss,

- target profit,

- break-even logic,

- trailing stop logic,

- session and Friday protection.

The goal is to capture fast directional breakout moves while keeping drawdown controlled.
