Friday Gold EA Check: Smart Gold Hunter Hits New All-Time Highs While First-Page MQL5 Gold EAs Face the NFP Test
This week, Smart Gold Hunter once again reached new all-time highs on its live MQL5 signal. The EA took a Friday gold trade, closed it in profit, and continued its growth with controlled risk.

The important Friday trade visible on the signal:
| Date | Type | Symbol | Volume | Open Price | Close Price | Result |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026.06.05 15:51 | Sell | XAUUSD | 0.01 | 4430.05 | 4428.05 | +2.00 USD |
So before checking the other gold EAs, the result is clear:
Smart Gold Hunter traded Friday, closed profit, and pushed the signal to new all-time highs again.
That is exactly what I want to see from a gold EA: not only marketing, not only backtests, not only beautiful screenshots — but real live signal performance during difficult market conditions.
What Is This Review About?This is not a full review of every gold EA on MQL5.
This is a Friday-only check of gold trading EAs and signals visible from the screenshots.
The idea is simple:
-
If the EA/signal is grid or recovery style, I put it in the grid category and do not analyze Friday trades.
-
If the EA/signal looks non-grid / non-martingale and took a visible Friday gold trade, I write the trade and result.
-
I only use the visible trades from the screenshots.
-
I do not claim hidden history or unavailable trade details.
-
This is not financial advice. It is only my personal observation from public MQL5 signal pages.
The question is very simple:
Who actually traded gold on Friday, and what happened?

2) Wave Rider EA
Status: Traded Friday
Category: Non-grid / non-martingale style from visible history
Broker: VTMarkets-Live 6
Result: Win
Visible Friday trade:
| Date | Type | Symbol | Volume | Result |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026.06.05 05:34 | Sell | XAUUSD-ECN | 0.01 | +1.77 EUR |
Wave Rider EA showed a clean Friday gold trade and closed it in profit.
Its average holding time shown on the signal was around 6 minutes, which makes the result interesting because it does not look like the EA was simply holding a bad gold position for hours or days to escape.
3) ArtQuant Gold
Status: Friday trades visible
Category: Non-grid / non-martingale style from visible history
Broker: ICMarketsSC-MT5-2
Result: Mixed, but visible Friday trades were overall positive
Visible Friday trades from the screenshot:
| Date | Type | Symbol | Volume | Result |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026.05.29 11:51 | Buy | XAUUSD | 0.01 | +3.85 EUR |
| 2026.05.29 11:49 | Buy | XAUUSD | 0.01 | +2.23 EUR |
| 2026.05.29 11:38 | Buy | XAUUSD | 0.01 | +0.60 EUR |
| 2026.05.29 11:35 | Buy | XAUUSD | 0.01 | -0.39 EUR |
| 2026.05.29 11:30 | Buy | XAUUSD | 0.01 | -1.51 EUR |
From the visible Friday trades, ArtQuant Gold had both winning and losing trades, but the visible total was positive.
This is actually more realistic than signals that show only perfect wins. A real EA can have losses. The key point is whether the losses are controlled and whether the total result stays healthy.
4) BB Return
Status: Traded Friday
Category: Non-grid / non-martingale style from visible history
Broker: ICMarketsSC-MT5-2
Result: Win
Visible Friday trade:
| Date | Type | Symbol | Volume | Result |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026.05.29 04:25 | Sell | XAUUSD | 0.02 | +8.58 USD |
BB Return showed a clear Friday gold trade and closed it in profit.
There was also a visible recent drawdown on the curve, so this signal should still be checked carefully from the risk tab. But for this Friday-only review, the visible Friday gold trade was a win.
5) GoldWave Signal
Status: Traded Friday
Category: Non-grid / non-martingale style from visible history
Broker: ICMarketsSC-MT5-4
Result: Win
Visible Friday trade:
| Date | Type | Symbol | Volume | Result |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026.05.29 13:16 | Buy | XAUUSD | 0.01 | +1.52 USD |
GoldWave Signal showed a visible Friday gold trade and closed it in profit.
The signal also has a longer public history and many subscribers, which makes it interesting. But again, this article is not a full signal review. I am only checking the visible Friday gold trade result.
Grid / Recovery Category — No Friday Trade Analysis
Some gold EAs from the first page may have impressive marketplace covers, strong growth claims, or active signals, but they appear to belong more to the grid / recovery / averaging category.
For this article, I do not make a Friday trade-by-trade analysis of these systems.
Examples from the first-page style list include:
-
Quantum Queen
-
Quantum Athena
-
Quantum King EA
-
Quantum Valkyrie
-
Gold House MT5
-
Similar grid/recovery-style gold systems
This does not mean every trader must avoid them. Some traders like grid systems and understand the risk.
But they should not be compared directly with non-grid / non-martingale systems.
Grid systems can show beautiful curves for a long time, but when gold trends aggressively, risk can grow very quickly. That is why I separate them from this Friday-only non-grid review.

Final Thoughts
Friday gold trading is a serious test.
Many EAs look good in calm market conditions, but Friday volatility, especially around NFP weeks, can show which systems are really controlled and which systems are only hiding risk.
From the visible screenshots, several non-grid / non-martingale style gold EAs from the first page showed positive Friday trades.
Most importantly for me, Smart Gold Hunter also traded Friday, closed in profit, and reached new all-time highs again.
That is the kind of performance I want to see from a live gold EA signal.
Not only a beautiful product image.
Not only a backtest.
Not only a marketing promise.
A real live trade.
A real Friday result.
A new all-time high.
