Aurum Donchian Breakout

- Версия: 1.0
Aurum Donchian Breakout Free is a free breakout Expert Advisor for MetaTrader 5. It trades breakouts of the 55-bar H4 Donchian channel with stop orders, an ATR-based stop and a fixed ATR target.
Position size is a fixed percentage of the current balance, so the lot size grows and shrinks with the account.
Logic
- Builds the 55-bar H4 Donchian channel (highest high, lowest low).
- Places a buy stop above the channel and a sell stop below it.
- Initial stop is 0.8 x daily ATR from the entry.
- Take-profit target is 4.0 x daily ATR.
- Positions close after 120 hours if still open.
- Lot size = 1% of balance at risk, so it compounds.

The defaults were selected for BTCUSD. The EA runs on any symbol and chart, but other symbols need their own testing and settings. Attach it to one chart per symbol; the chart timeframe does not change the logic.

Important limits
Breakout systems have long flat or losing periods. Results depend on the broker's spread, swap, contract size and trading hours. Test on a demo account first and use risk you can afford to lose. Trading decisions remain with the user.
