Automated Breakouts from User-Drawn Trendlines

Summary

This document describes an expert advisor that monitors multiple trendlines drawn by a user on a chart. It detects adjustments to those lines dynamically and uses their position relative to current price to identify a possible breakout direction: price below the lines prompts a watch for an upward break, while price above them prompts a watch for a downward break.

The advisor can issue alerts through popups, sounds, email, or mobile notifications, and it can place trades when that option is enabled. For three- or five-digit currency quotes, it automatically scales target profit, stop loss, and slippage settings. The document provides no backtest, performance evidence, or detail on how a breakout is confirmed, how trades are sized, or how risk is managed. Its description therefore explains a configurable alert and execution tool rather than a validated trading strategy.
