Guardian Aurum EA is a specialized automated trading system developed exclusively for XAUUSD (Gold). It is designed for traders seeking precision through candle-based entries combined with multi-timeframe (MTF) trend confirmation. Optimized specifically for the M3 timeframe, this EA provides a comprehensive professional workflow: from intelligent entry detection to advanced position management and rigorous risk control.
Moving beyond basic grid managers, Guardian Aurum is a proactive trading system capable of handling Buy and Sell directions independently. The system employs a disciplined methodology: filtering every signal against a broader market context to ensure you are trading with the primary gold trend, never against it.
Key Features
- Candle-Close Confirmation: Signals are only triggered once a candle has closed, significantly reducing market noise and avoiding "fake-outs" entries.
- Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Filter: Every trade is cross-verified with higher timeframe trends to ensure high-probability setups.
- Independent Dual-Direction Trading: Buy and Sell grids are managed separately, allowing the EA to remain flexible in both trending and ranging (sideways) markets.
- Flexible Lot Management: Supports both fixed lot sizes and automatic lot calculation based on account balance to optimize capital compounding.
- Controlled Averaging Mechanism: When the market moves against a position, the EA utilizes a strategic averaging plan with customizable distance, multipliers, and level limits.
- Smart Overlap Logic: Includes a mechanism to use profits from winning trades to close out the oldest losing positions, maintaining a healthier margin level.
- Equity Protection: An integrated "Hard Stop" system allows you to set maximum drawdown thresholds (USD or percentage), automatically triggering alerts or closing all positions to preserve capital.

⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTE
The default Point settings in Guardian Aurum EA are engineered for universal compatibility across both 2-digit and 3-digit XAUUSD (Gold) pricing. The EA features an internal auto-calibration logic that ensures your distance settings remain consistent regardless of your broker's decimal precision.
- Automatic Scaling: A setting of 100 points will be executed as 100 points on 2-digit brokers.
- 3-Digit Precision: On 3-digit brokers, the EA automatically maps that same setting to 1000 points internally to maintain the intended market distance.
- User Advantage: This eliminates the need for manual re-calculation when switching between different broker price feeds.
Guardian Aurum EA delivers a practical, disciplined, and transparent approach to gold trading automation. By combining intelligent entry filtering with professional recovery tools like Overlap, the system provides the stability required for sustainable long-term success.
