Our chart of the MT5 backtest from 1 September 2022 – 31 October 2026: balance at the end of each month at 0.5% risk per trade, from the report’s deal list, after realistic slippage. Positions grow with the account, so later months move more dollars. Backtest, not a live account; not a forecast.

No grid. A stop on every trade.
Flat again by the evening.

Trading can lose your entire deposit.
Backtests do not predict future results.

How it trades

The quiet hours set the range.
The breakout decides.

Session Break waits while gold, the yen and bitcoin each go through a calm stretch of their day, trades the side that breaks out and is flat again before the evening.

Quiet hoursClosed the same dayUpper edgeLower edgeOther side removedBreakoutStop, set from the start
  1. Quiet hours set the rangeEach market has its own calm stretch of the day. Session Break records its high and low.
  2. The breakout decidesWhen price leaves the range, it trades that side. On gold, orders wait at both edges; the one that fills removes the other.
  3. A stop from the first secondEvery position reaches the broker with its stop-loss. There is no target: a good day is allowed to run.
  4. Flat the same dayEach market has a fixed closing time. Orders that never filled are removed.

Own stop

  • No grid, no averaging down

    One position per market at a time. A losing trade is never added to, and size never grows after a loss.

  • A stop on every trade

    Sent to the broker with the position, so it holds even when your terminal is offline.

  • Flat by the evening

    Trades close on the day they open. Normally nothing is held overnight, and nothing over the weekend.

  • Three markets, three clocks

    Gold, the yen and bitcoin each have their own quiet hours, so the trades spread across the day.

  • Sits out stretched days

    After an unusually large day on gold or the yen, Session Break skips the next breakout there.

  • A fixed risk you choose

    Low, Medium or High: a fixed share of the current balance per trade. The size grows with the account and shrinks after losses.

The backtest

4.2 years of real ticks.
Every month on the record.

How this was tested

One run of Session Break (RX_SessionBreak 1.00 (release file)) with gold, USDJPY and bitcoin on one H1 chart in the MetaTrader 5 Strategy Tester, mode “Every tick based on real ticks”, $10,000 deposit, leverage 1:500, 0.5% risk per trade from the current balance. Run by us on 5 November 2026.

Price history: real ticks. Gold and yen from IC Trading’s own feed since April 2026 and, before that, real ticks of BlackBull Markets and RoboForex; bitcoin from Binance. The spread is fixed for the whole period at the average we measured at Session Break’s own entry and exit times (gold $0.168 over 1,823 trades, yen 0.0117 over 1,572), commission included; bitcoin $6.

The tester fills orders without slippage. We subtracted slippage from every entry and every exit of the same trades: gold $0.30 per ounce, yen 0.005, bitcoin $6. All figures on this page are after that deduction; the original MT5 charts below are before it.

Monthly and yearly results are the change of the balance, rebuilt from the report’s deal list. A backtest is not a live or demo-forward result. Different brokers, deposits and start dates produce different results.

Tester run: 2026-11-05-sb100-fix1-r05-2209

Every result is its own MetaTrader 5 tester run on the same real ticks, 1 September 2022 – 31 October 2026, $10,000 start, tested 5 November 2026. Each spread is fixed for the whole period. “As tested” is the average spread we measured at the moments Session Break actually trades (gold $0.168, yen 0.0117), not a quiet-hours best case. On top of the spread every entry and exit pays realistic slippage: gold $0.30 per ounce, yen 0.005, bitcoin $6. Where a level asks for less than the broker’s smallest lot, Session Break skips that trade instead of risking more, so the 0.5% runs have a few trades fewer. The risk is a share of the current balance, so sizes grow with the account; at the high level the totals reach position sizes where real fills would likely be worse. Backtests, not live accounts; past drawdown is not a loss limit.

Questions before you start

How do I get access?

Message us on Telegram. You open an MT5 account through our partner link and send us the account number; we set it up with you and send you the EA.

What does Session Break cost?

No licence fee: access runs through our partner-broker arrangement, and we receive broker rebates on referred trading activity. Spreads, commissions, swaps and VPS hosting can still cost money.

Is it a grid or martingale EA?

No. One position per market at a time, each with its own stop-loss from the start. Session Break never adds to a losing trade and never increases the size after a loss.

Does it hold trades overnight?

Normally not. Every trade is closed on the day it opened. Bitcoin can stay open overnight on a few US holidays when the gold market closes early.

Which risk level should I choose?

Start with 0.5%. In the test it gave the smallest drawdowns. 1% earns more but roughly doubles the swings (largest drawdown 31.3%); 2% reached 53.4% at its worst point.

How much money do I need?

It depends on the risk level, because gold’s smallest position is fixed. At today’s gold price that is about $8,500 at 0.5%, $4,500 at 1% and $2,500 at 2%. Below that Session Break skips gold trades it cannot size small enough, rather than risk more.

Is there a live account?

Not yet. The figures on this page are backtests with real ticks and fixed spreads. A backtest is not a forecast.
