Key Highlights

• ✅ Targets XAUUSD exclusively — built around gold volatility patterns, not a generic multi-pair system
• ✅ Two Myfxbook-verified demo signals: +32.52% and +30.67% gain with sub-7.2% drawdown
• ✅ Runs on MT4 with trailing stop and break-even automation — no manual intervention needed during trades
• ✅ Hard stop-loss at 1,000 points and configurable max-spread filter (24 pips default) cap worst-case exposure
• ✅ Low recorded drawdown (2.13%–7.17%) fits within typical prop firm evaluation DD limits — see more prop firm EAs
• ✅ Version 3.9.4 active — percentage-based lot sizing scales automatically with account equity

Performance Results

The V3.9.2 signal on IC Markets demo recorded a +32.52% gain over approximately 30 days (April 23 – May 23, 2024), with a peak drawdown of just 2.13%. Daily return averaged 0.10% on a $10,000 starting balance — verified and tracked on Myfxbook.

A second signal, V3.9.3, ran on the same broker from June 5 – July 9, 2024 (~35 days) and recorded +30.67% gain at a 7.17% peak drawdown, with 0.11% average daily return. Two withdrawal events appear in the equity chart mid- and late-June without disrupting the overall upward trajectory.

Both signals ran on demo accounts — not live capital. The 7.17% peak drawdown in V3.9.3 coincided with gold’s sharp intraday spikes during the mid-June FOMC period. Control drawdown by setting Percent Lot at or below 0.2%, keeping Max Spread at 24 pips, and monitoring the equity curve weekly. Realistic monthly returns under live conditions — accounting for spread variation and slippage — will likely fall below the demo figures. Both signals tracked Apr–Jul 2024 on demo accounts. Run a 90-day demo to validate under current market conditions before live deployment. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

How It Works

Strategy: Automated XAUUSD scalp/swing system on MT4 — exploits directional momentum and mean-reversion patterns in gold price action.

Entry: Technical signal triggers order placement; up to 10 buy and 10 sell trades allowed simultaneously per direction.

Exit: Take profit fixed at 600 points; trailing stop activates at 20-point gain and trails by 20 points to protect open profit.

Risk Control: Hard stop-loss at 1,000 points per trade; percentage lot sizing at 0.2% of equity; max spread filter blocks entries above 24 pips.

✅ Best conditions: Trending gold sessions (London/NY overlap) • Spread under 24 pips • Low-latency VPS connection to broker

⚠️ Caution: High-impact news events (NFP, FOMC) — spread spikes may trigger filter • Ranging, choppy XAUUSD sessions with no directional bias

Who Should Use This EA

✅ Ideal for:

• MT4 traders focused on XAUUSD who want full automation without watching charts
• Prop firm challengers — recorded drawdown under 7.17% fits most evaluation DD thresholds
• Traders with $1,000–$5,000 accounts who can run a VPS with an ECN broker
• Intermediate traders comfortable adjusting lot size and spread settings before going live

✅ Best results when:

• Running on a low-spread ECN broker (IC Markets or equivalent) with a stable VPS
• Demo-validated for 60–90 days before committing live capital — both signals were demo-only
