## Spike Hunter PRO
Spike Hunter PRO is a fully automated Expert Advisor for MetaTrader 5, designed to capture profit from sudden high-velocity price movements on XAUUSD (Gold). The EA detects genuine spikes in real time and enters the market within milliseconds of detection.
---
**How it works**
The EA continuously monitors price movement speed on every tick. When price accelerates beyond the configured threshold, the EA opens a trade in the direction of the spike and immediately begins protecting the position with a dollar-based trailing stop.
---
**Key Features**
- **Speed-based spike detection** — measures price velocity in points per second across a rolling tick buffer, catching real spikes even when price partially retraces within the detection window
- **Dual spread filter** — applies a separate, wider spread limit during spike events, preventing false blocks caused by natural spread widening at the moment of entry
- **Dollar trailing stop** — locks in profit progressively using three simple dollar amounts: a trigger level, a lock-in amount, and a step size; the stop loss moves up automatically as profit grows
- **Auto margin protection** — reduces lot size automatically if free margin is insufficient, preventing order failures on any account size
- **Market session guard** — blocks new entries when the market is closed or during rollover periods, avoiding failed orders during off-hours
- **Close-all targets** — optional total profit target and maximum loss cut that close all positions automatically when reached
- **On-chart dashboard** — a real-time panel displays current spike speed, spread status, trailing stop phase, floating P/L, and cooldown timer
