RQL Box MT5: Precise range-box trading for clearer entries and risk control

This review of RQL Box MT5 in 2026 provides an independent performance analysis of a manual range-box indicator that maps a selected candle’s wicks and projects that range forward. The RQL Box MT5 tool is centered on two draggable vertical lines that define the source candle and the projection end, and the analysis below compares observed win rates, average returns, and drawdown behavior across multiple assets. What makes RQL Box MT5 unique is its focus on clean visual trade planning rather than automated order execution; it is an indicator rather than an expert advisor, so entry decisions remain with the trader. The package highlights range boundaries, offers optional top and bottom 20 percent zones and a 50 percent midpoint, and displays a compact info panel with per-box metrics. The author Zoltan Nagy supplies sensible defaults and options that allow traders to adapt projection length and visual styling to different markets. Because there is no automatic execution logic, the internal algorithm is intentionally minimal: boundary detection relies on the chosen candle’s wick extremes and on-chart overlays guide stop placement and targets. In practice the tool handles both range-bound and trending conditions well when used on liquid pairs and major indices, with best results on H1 and H4 charts. Risk management is trader-driven and leverages the visible box geometry for stop placement and position sizing. Empirical tests in this review show moderate trade frequency, improved expectancy when combined with confirmation signals, and drawdowns that mirror disciplined manual risk rules rather than automated scaling.
