Breakout Retest Pro EA MT5 – Breakout and Retest Strategy for XAUUSD with ATR-Based Risk Controls

Breakout Retest Pro EA MT5 is a price-action Expert Advisor for MetaTrader 5 that trades breakout-and-retest setups primarily on XAUUSD. The strategy uses ATR-based stops with a documented 1:2.67 risk-reward ratio and a 1% auto-lot risk model. No publicly accessible Myfxbook, FXBlue, or MQL5 Signal account was found — available proof consists of screenshots only and cannot be independently verified.

Key Highlights

• ✅ MT5 EA trading XAUUSD breakout-and-retest setups on M5, M15, and H1
• ✅ ATR-based SL and TP with 1.5× SL multiplier and 4.0× TP multiplier in default settings
• ✅ Five XAUUSD set files included: 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, and 5% auto-lot risk per trade
• ✅ Seller documentation states no grid and no martingale logic
• ⚠️ Screenshots show multi-position behavior inconsistent with the documented single-position limit — verify in demo before live use

Performance Results

The available results consist of screenshots showing short-session profits on XAUUSD and BTCUSD across several accounts dated April 2026. XAUUSD session figures show $407–$624 profit on accounts with balances in a similar range. These are image-based results only — no public Myfxbook, FXBlue, or MQL5 Signal link was accessible, so the figures cannot be independently confirmed.

One set of screenshots shows XAUUSD lot sizes ranging from 0.01 to 1.35 within a single 11-minute session. That lot range is inconsistent with a strict 1%-per-trade auto-lot model on a small account. A BTCUSD session shows multiple simultaneous sell positions open at the same time, which conflicts with the Max Open Positions: 1 setting in the documented input parameters. These discrepancies may reflect different configuration states, larger account balances not shown, or settings that differ from the documented defaults.

Drawdown data is not documented in any available source material. Worst-case drawdown is unknown. Control risk through strict lot sizing at 1% per trade, ECN broker selection to minimize spread impact on ATR-based stops, and a minimum 90-day demo period with close monitoring of position behavior against the documented single-position setting.

⚠️ All performance figures on this page are based on screenshots from available source materials and are not independently verified. Demo testing is required before risking live capital.

How It Works

Strategy: Price-action breakout-and-retest model. Waits for a swing-point breakout confirmed over 2 bars, then enters on a retest of the broken level within an ATR-defined zone.

Entry: Breakout confirmation requires a 1.5× ATR impulse move clearing a swing high or low over 2 bars. Entry triggers when price returns to the retest zone (0.5× ATR from breakout level) within 40 bars. SMA 50 trend filter must align with trade direction.

Exit: Primary exit: TP at 4.0× ATR from entry; SL at 1.5× ATR. Secondary exit: reversal detection using engulfing candle, three-bar reversal, or EMA momentum flip (Fast EMA 8, Slow EMA 21) closes the trade early when conditions trigger.

Risk Control: Auto-lot enabled at 1% risk per trade; fixed lot default is 0.5 if auto-lot is disabled. Maximum 1 open position per documented settings. Slippage tolerance set at 2 points. Screenshots show behavior inconsistent with the single-position limit — verify in demo before live deployment.

✅ Best conditions: Trending XAUUSD session • ECN broker with tight gold spreads • VPS with stable server-time alignment.

⚠️ Caution: Ranging or choppy XAUUSD conditions • Wide-spread broker execution during news events.
