All MT5 automations OPENING RANGE BREAKOUT Intraday

Opening Range Breakout

Some of the day's clearest moves happen in the first hour. Opening Range Breakout goes to work the moment the market opens, catching the break across major stock indices, then steps aside before the close. You end every day in cash.

Why traders choose it

This is the active side of your portfolio, engineered to move fast in the open and stand down by the close, entirely on its own.

Flat every night

Closes every position before the bell, so you never carry risk overnight.

Protected on entry

Every trade opens with a hard stop, sized to your balance.

Fully hands-free

Runs on your own MT5 terminal — you keep custody, we never see a password.

Set the session hour. The InpSessionStartHour input is your broker’s server-time hour for the US index open (09:30 New York) — on most GMT+2/+3 brokers that is 15 or 16. If it is wrong, the opening range forms at the wrong time and it won’t work as intended. Check your broker’s server time and set it once.
