The breakout trades
professionals wait for.
Placed for you.
Mercury watches the levels that move markets — H4 gaps, daily swings, yesterday’s value area and untested POCs. When price breaks through one and the next candle confirms it, Mercury opens the trade on your MetaTrader 5 account with the stop, the target and the size already set.

A level. A break. A confirmation. Then the trade.
Most breakouts fail. Mercury only acts on the ones that prove themselves: price has to close decisively through the far side of a higher-timeframe level, and the very next candle has to hold beyond it, move in the trade’s direction and keep the breakout’s extreme. Only then does the order go out — at market, with a stop on the other side of the level and a target three or four times the risk.
Every strategy trades a different kind of level.
They share the same confirmation, the same risk and the same exits — so they add up instead of getting in each other’s way.

Questions, answered.
What exactly does Mercury do?+
Mercury is an automated trading system for MetaTrader 5. It watches six markets for confirmed breakouts through higher-timeframe levels and places the trades on your own MT5 account through a small Expert Advisor — with the stop, the target and the position size already set.
Do I need trading experience?+
No. You connect your MT5 account once, choose your risk per trade and which markets to trade, and Mercury does the rest. You can watch every signal and every trade in your dashboard and pause at any time.
Which markets does Mercury trade?+
Gold (XAUUSD), the Nasdaq 100 (NAS100), the S&P 500 (SPX500), EURUSD, GBPUSD and USDJPY. You can switch any market off in your dashboard.
How much do I risk per trade?+
You choose: 0.25 %, 0.5 % (the default), 0.75 % or 1 % of your account per trade, with a dollar cap per trade. Mercury sizes every order from your broker’s own tick value, so the loss at the stop matches the risk you chose.
How many trades does it take?+
About 94 trades a year across all six markets in the backtest — roughly two a week. Some weeks have none; busy weeks can have several. Mercury holds at most two positions per market at once.
