cBot: Lisa EURUSD Breakout

Lisa EURUSD Breakout is a session-breakout cBot built specifically for EURUSD in cTrader. It forms a session box and uses clear breakout logic to place pending stop orders above and below the selected range.

Instead of using grids, martingale logic or unclear recovery mechanics, the cBot follows a transparent session-based structure with defined entries, exits and risk controls.

🔎 cBot functionality:
• Builds a session box using Tokyo, London, New York, London–NY Overlap or custom times
• Places Buy Stop and Sell Stop orders around the session range with optional OCO cancellation
• Includes flexible SL/TP management, trailing stop, partial close and order expiry
• Adds risk controls such as daily loss/profit limits, max trades per day and max consecutive losses

Lisa EURUSD Breakout is especially useful for traders who prefer a structured and disciplined breakout framework. Its pending-order logic, OCO handling and risk controls make it a clean automated approach for testing EURUSD session breakout scenarios.

⭐️ Trader's feedback:

“Lisa EURUSD Breakout feels like a clean and disciplined session-breakout engine rather than a typical overhyped retail bot. The execution logic is transparent, the pending-order framework is implemented properly, and there are no dangerous martingale tricks hiding underneath. The edge itself is relatively narrow – which is normal for modern EURUSD breakout trading – but the system behaves professionally and honestly during runtime.”
