GOLD Rolling Range Breakout is a fully automated XAUUSD (Gold) cTrader bot that identifies short-term consolidation ranges and places breakout trades when price closes outside the range with sufficient momentum. It uses pending orders, fixed stop losses, and predefined take-profit targets to capture continuation moves while avoiding ranging market conditions.
