London Rush Forex System+ SuperTrend MTF Breakout Strategy for MT4
This MT4 strategy uses the London Forex Rush System together with the SuperTrend MTF Indicator.
The London Rush System draws breakout levels based on the previous Tokyo trading range, plus a secret ingredient to capture high-probability breakouts.
SuperTrend MTF adds trend direction confirmation with a green line for bullish and a red line for bearish trends.
This strategy is especially designed for GBP- and JPY-pairs, which often show strong breakout potential around session overlaps.
It works best on time frames like M15, M30, and H1.
Because the London breakout after Tokyo’s consolidation tends to produce solid moves, this strategy suits day traders looking for structured entry points and clear risk management.
Trend filtering with SuperTrend helps avoid losing breakout attempts by trading only with the bias of the wider trend.
Buy Entry Rules
- Wait for the London Forex Rush indicator to plot a buy breakout level based on the previous Tokyo range.
- Confirm the SuperTrend MTF line is green, indicating a bullish trend.
- Enter a long trade when the price breaks and closes above the breakout level from London Rush.
- Set the stop loss just below the breakout level or under the recent swing low marked by the London Rush system.
- Take profit using the target levels generated by the London Rush indicator (or set your own based on a risk-reward of at least 1:2 or more).
Sell Entry Rules
- Wait for the London Forex Rush indicator to plot a sell breakout level based on Tokyo’s range.
- Ensure the SuperTrend MTF line is red, confirming a bearish trend.
- Enter a short trade after price breaks and closes below the sell breakout level.
- Place the stop loss just above the breakout level or above the recent swing high identified by the London Rush system.
- Use the London Rush provided targets to set your take profit zones, or apply a risk-reward ratio of 1:2+ if you prefer.
Advantages
- Breakout levels are grounded in the previous Tokyo session’s high-low, giving structure and relevance.
- The “secret ingredient” in the London Rush system (its proprietary logic) improves breakout quality.
- Trend confirmation from SuperTrend MTF (green/red line) filters out counter-trend breakouts.
- Good risk control thanks to predefined SL and TP levels from the London Rush system.
- Highly suited for GBP and JPY pairs, which often show volatile breakout behaviour around the London open.
Drawbacks
- False breakouts can still happen, especially if Tokyo’s range is narrow or erratic.
- SuperTrend lag can delay confirmation, making you miss some entries.
- In highly choppy markets, breakouts may reverse or fail to follow through.
- The strategy may not work as well outside GBP/JPY pairs where breakout dynamics differ.
Case Study 1
On GBPUSD (H1) during a London session, the London Forex Rush indicator marked a potential breakout level based on the previous Tokyo range.
At the same time, the SuperTrend MTF line turned green, confirming a bullish trend.
Price then broke above the London Rush level and closed a candle beyond it.
A long position was opened, placing the stop loss just below the breakout line.
GBPUSD rallied smoothly, hitting the first target set by the London Rush system.
It continued upward, eventually reaching the second target, resulting in a strong, well-defined breakout move.
SuperTrend trailed below the price all along, helping to provide confidence in staying in the trade.
Case Study 2
On GBPJPY (M30), during the overlap of London and New York sessions, the London Rush indicator drew a sell breakout level based on the Tokyo range.
The SuperTrend MTF line was red, signalling bearish bias.
Price broke downward cleanly through the London Rush sell line, closing below it.
A short trade was entered with a stop loss placed above the breakout level.
As volatility picked up, GBPJPY dropped quickly, taking out multiple target levels from the London Rush system.
The trade realised a large move, with SuperTrend acting as a trailing guide and protecting the trade from any minor pullbacks.
Strategy Tips
- Stick to GBP- and JPY-related pairs (for example, GBPUSD, GBPJPY, EURGBP, USDJPY) because this system is optimised for their breakout behaviour.
- Use lower to medium timeframes (M15 to H1) where the London breakout after Tokyo range is most meaningful.
- Only trade when SuperTrend confirms the direction: green for buys, red for sells.
- Avoid trading during extremely low-volume sessions or public holidays when breakouts may lack follow-through.
- Manage risk strictly. Use the stop loss suggested or a defined level and consider scaling out at different profit targets.
