Specification

Hello developers,

I am currently using a scalping EA on XAUUSD (M1) based on pending orders and ATR logic, and I’m looking for professional optimization and possibly strategy improvements.

My main goals:

  • High-speed scalping (fast execution and fast entry logic)

  • Ability to trade both directions simultaneously (true hedge mode: buy and sell at the same time)

  • Professionally optimized pending order distance based on gold volatility

  • Very fast break-even and an intelligent trailing stop suitable for M1 scalping

  • Better handling of spread and slippage during high volatility

What I need from you:

  1. Provide professional, battle-tested settings for aggressive but controlled gold scalping.

  2. Optimize the following parameters:

    • ATR multipliers

    • Pending order distance

    • Break-even timing

    • Trailing stop logic

    • Spread and slippage filters

  3. If possible, suggest improvements to the core strategy logic, not just parameter tuning.

⚠️ Important issue:
When I enable slippage protection, the EA suddenly stops opening trades. I need help identifying the cause and fixing this behavior.

If needed, I can provide the EA source code for deeper optimization and strategic improvements.

My priority is:
Stability + fast profits + controlled risk on XAUUSD M1.

Looking forward to your professional recommendations.
