KILLZONE KNIGHT PROP EA: Precision Session-Based Gold Trading
Professional Expert Advisor for XAUUSD | Dual-Strategy Institutional Trading System
Overview
KILLZONE KNIGHT PROP EA is an institutional-grade trading system designed for serious traders and prop firm professionals. Built on two independent, high-probability strategies—LDNYK (London-NY Close) and GBT (GMT Breakout Timing)—this EA combines session-based precision with advanced market structure analysis to capture gold's intraday momentum during peak liquidity windows.
Unlike traditional breakout systems, KILLZONE KNIGHT operates on a dual-engine architecture, allowing both strategies to run simultaneously without interference, each with independent risk controls, trade limits, and profit management systems.
Core Strategy Architecture
Strategy 1: LDNYK (London-NY Close Breakout)
- Market Structure: Analyzes previous daily highs and lows with configurable breakout zones
- Entry Logic: Monitors M15 price action for confirmed breakouts beyond daily extremes
- Validation: Requires minimum candle size (5+ pips) to filter false breakouts
- Session Focus: Operates exclusively during NY trading hours (8 AM - 4 PM NY time)
- Trade Management: Independent daily trade limits (default: 5 trades/day)
Strategy 2: GBT (GMT Breakout Timing)
- Precision Window: Captures early session volatility (3:05-6:05 GMT)
- M1 Analysis: Uses 1-minute price structure for micro-level entry precision
- Breakout Confirmation: Tight distance parameters (5-pip entry window)
- Auto-Exit Protocol: Closes all GBT positions at 22:30 GMT for clean overnight risk
- Multi-Level Controls: Session, daily, and weekly trade limits with profit target caps
Advanced Features
Intelligent Position Management
