Aurus Breakout

Aurus Breakout is the flagship gold (XAUUSD) trading advisor for MetaTrader 5.

Aurus Breakout is a fully automated solution for trading gold (XAUUSD) on the MetaTrader 5 platform, built on a multi-strategy swing breakout system. The algorithm is based on intelligent analysis of key swing highs and lows on the hourly timeframe (H1), which the EA uses to calculate optimal entry points and place pending stop orders (Buy Stop / Sell Stop). This approach allows market entry only with confirmed momentum—simply touching the price level is not enough, significantly reducing the number of false positives and filtering out weak, uncertain movements.

Key operating principles

The advisor deliberately avoids aggressive and risky capital management methods: there are no martingales, grid strategies, or averaging of losing positions. Each trade is opened with a preset stop-loss and take-profit and is accompanied by a multi-level exit system, completely eliminating the need for manual intervention by the trader. Several independent strategies operate simultaneously on the H1 timeframe, each with its own stop-loss, take-profit, trailing system, unique magic number, and individual risk weight. This multifaceted approach allows it to cover a wide range of market conditions—from short intraday breakouts to multi-day swing setups.

Functional capabilities

The Expert Advisor features a sophisticated multi-level exit system, including a breakeven, trailing stop, trailing take-profit, and a step-by-step trail for gradual stop-loss adjustments. A virtual stop-loss closes positions programmatically, regardless of broker terms. A built-in time filter for each strategy individually blocks trading hours with a profit factor below 1.0 based on historical analysis. A news filter suspends trading before and after the release of US Non-Farm Payrolls data, and a clearing mechanism automatically deletes open pending orders before the daily market close. For traders working with proprietary firms, a maximum daily loss input parameter is provided. Risk control is implemented through mandatory stop-loss orders with a customizable risk level for each position.

Requirements for the trading environment

For stable operation of the Expert Advisor, you need the MetaTrader 5 platform, the XAUUSD trading symbol, a chart timeframe between M5 and H1, and a minimum balance of $250. We recommend using an ECN or RAW hedging account with leverage of at least 1:100. For uninterrupted 24/7 operation, we strongly recommend hosting the account on a VPS server.

Setup and launch

The setup process is extremely simple: attach the EA to a single XAUUSD chart, enable automated trading in the terminal, select the desired risk level and a suitable preset. Leave the chart open—the EA will handle the rest automatically.

Risk Warning

Gold trading carries a high level of risk. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Only trade with funds you can afford to lose without compromising your financial well-being.
