Lifetime Quarterly Maintenance — 100% Free
The gold market (XAUUSD) is highly dynamic. Preset parameters that work in one market regime may need adjustment as volatility and liquidity conditions change.
To ensure the EA remains aligned with current market conditions:
-
Regular Optimization: We actively monitor the performance of our strategies and re-optimize the core inputs every quarter.
-
New Preset Releases: Every 3 months, we publish updated .set files tailored to the latest gold market volatility.
-
Lifetime Support: This ongoing maintenance is 100% free for all buyers. You will never have to pay extra for updated settings or system refinements.
We are committed to keeping this system updated so you don't have to spend your weekends running optimization tests.

PATH B: SYSTEM ENGINEERING (For Advanced & Control-Oriented Traders)
Do you prefer to verify every variable, run your own backtests, and customize your trading systems? We believe in absolute transparency.
Instead of locking our logic inside an unadjustable "black box," we give you the tools and the knowledge to adapt the EA to your specific trading environment. Broker spreads, execution speeds, and slippage vary—which is why the best traders optimize for their specific conditions.
To help you master this, we have published a step-by-step 5-Part MT5 Optimization Masterclass on our MQL5 blog. This guide teaches you exactly how to run genetic optimizations in the MT5 Strategy Tester, avoid curve-fitting, and engineer your own custom presets

Our self-optimisation model has proven to be the best-in-class approach:
Our self-optimisation model has proven to be the best-in-class approach:
You control everything: This EA exposes the strategy’s variables (what, when, and how much), so you can adapt it to your risk, broker conditions, and instruments instead of guessing why a black‑box EA fired a trade. This transparency lets you optimise intelligently and repeat results.
There’s no universal “set file.”: Brokers differ in spreads, commissions, swaps, execution latency, and even historical tick data. MT5’s tester itself allows configuring commissions and margin rules to mirror broker conditions — precisely because these vary and matter. Optimising yourself aligns the EA to your reality.
Better risk-adjusted outcomes: Optimisation criteria in MT5 go beyond profit (e.g., Recovery Factor, Sharpe) and even allow Custom max (via OnTester) if the EA exposes it — so you can optimise for what you truly care about.

I’ll start with the author.
Yassir has been responsive, easy to talk to, and quick to reply. Communication has been straightforward and practical, and feedback is taken seriously. Overall, working with him has been smooth and professional.
For context, I almost never leave reviews — I think this is my third one since the internet exists. I’m writing this after running the EA on demo for about a month and simply watching how it behaves in different market conditions, not because of any short-term results.
What stood out to me fairly quickly was how stable the logic feels. Trade management and trailing are well designed and adapt to volatility instead of acting in a rigid, mechanical way. Direction during NY sessions has been consistent, and the EA reacts in a predictable manner when conditions change. That makes it much easier to analyze and optimize over time. It doesn’t feel like a black box - you can follow what it’s doing and why.
I’m still in the optimization phase, but as a foundation, this EA feels solid and thoughtfully built.
