BigMove Catcher PRO MQ4 is a simple but powerful trend-based algorithm designed to capture the major continuation moves on XAUUSD.
Instead of trying to win every day, this EA focuses on catching the one big move that aligns with the higher timeframe — the type of move that can grow an account for weeks or even months.
It uses a clean top-down trend approach:
Monthly → Weekly → Daily for direction,
then waits for a sniper entry on the 1H timeframe using a 1:8 Risk/Reward setup.
Small losses are part of the process.
One strong continuation move pays for everything.
1️⃣ Monthly Trend Alignment
The EA begins by identifying the dominant long-term direction from the Monthly chart. This sets the foundation for all trading decisions.
2️⃣ Weekly Confirmation
It then checks the Weekly structure, confirming liquidity flow and overall momentum.
3️⃣ Daily Direction Check
The Daily timeframe is used to refine short-term directional bias and make sure the trend is clean and consistent with the larger frames.
4️⃣ Sniper Entry on 1H
When trend alignment is confirmed across Monthly, Weekly, and Daily:
✔ waits for a clean pullback
✔ checks market structure
✔ uses a simple 5 SMA crossing above/below 10 SMA on the 1H timeframe
✔ confirms price is aligned with the trend
Once all conditions are met, the EA opens one precise trade.
No martingale.
No grid.
No second orders.
5️⃣ 1:8 Risk-to-Reward Ratio
Each trade targets a realistic 1:8 continuation move, allowing small, controlled losses and large, meaningful wins.
This is what drives long-term growth and consistency.
This EA is not for traders who want:
❌ 100% win rate
❌ guaranteed daily profits
❌ fast account doubling
This is a trend-based, directional system.
Losing trades will happen.
A losing week can happen.
But when the big move arrives — and it always does —
it pays for everything and pushes the account forward.
