RB Gold is a quantitative, rule-based Session Range Breakout Expert Advisor engineered specifically for XAUUSD (Gold) and major volatility pairs.
Unlike 90% of Gold EAs that rely on risky grids, martingale, or averaging schemes that eventually blow accounts, RB Gold utilizes a 100% pure, single-shot price action approach. It identifies institutional liquidity consolidation during a customizable session window (default 00:00 to 05:00 GMT) and captures the high-momentum breakout that follows.
Every single trade is strictly protected by a physical Hard Stop Loss and a dynamic R-Multiple Take Profit target. The algorithm uses 100% Pure Single-Shot Execution — strictly No Grid, No Martingale, No Recovery, No Hedging, and No Overnight Swap.
Core Advantages & Features
-
Pure Price Action Breakout: Places precision Buy Stop and Sell Stop pending orders at a customizable percentage offset (default +5% of range width) outside the session high and low to filter out false tick pokes.
-
Smart Daily ATR(14) Volatility Filter: Measures yesterday's Daily ATR and automatically skips trading on days when the session range is abnormally flat/choppy (below 0.1x ATR) or already exhausted by news/pre-session spikes (above 0.8x ATR).
-
True OCO (One-Cancels-Other) Execution: As soon as one breakout direction triggers into an active position, the opposite pending order is immediately deleted to avoid dual-side exposure.
-
Dynamic R-Multiple Risk/Reward Engine: Calculates Stop Loss at the opposite range boundary and sets Take Profit dynamically in multiples of Risk (default 2.0 R = 1:2 Risk-to-Reward ratio).
-
Prop-Firm Friendly Risk Management: Choose between a Fixed Lot size or automatic % Balance Risk per Trade with built-in Free Margin and Broker Volume Limit protections.
-
Intraday Auto-Cancellation & Time Exit: Unfilled pending orders are automatically cancelled at your chosen GMT hour (default 15:00 GMT), and any remaining open trade is closed before the daily rollover (default 16:00 GMT) to avoid overnight swap fees, weekend risk, and widening spreads.
-
Visual On-Chart Blueprint & Status Dashboard: Draws the shaded Session Range Box, Buy/Sell Stop lines, and real-time broker/GMT timing status directly on your MT5 chart.
How the Strategy Works (The 4-Phase Daily Cycle)
-
Phase 1 — Session Range Mapping (00:00 – 05:00 GMT): The EA tracks the exact Highest High and Lowest Low of the session using M5 precision data, regardless of the timeframe you attach the chart to.
-
Phase 2 — ATR Volatility Validation (05:00 GMT): At the end of the session range, the EA compares the range width against the Daily ATR(14) filter. If the range is within 0.1x – 0.8x Daily ATR, the day is approved for trading.
-
Phase 3 — Pending Order Placement & OCO Management: Buy Stop and Sell Stop orders are placed with calculated lot sizes, SL, and TP. Once price breaks out and triggers one order, the opposite order is immediately cancelled.
-
Phase 4 — Intraday Cleanup (15:00 – 16:00 GMT): Unfilled orders are removed at 15:00 GMT, and open positions are closed cleanly at 16:00 GMT so your account starts fresh every trading day.
