📋 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
One-Line Pitch
"Machine Learning meets Dollar-Based Risk Management – The first Gold EA that thinks in dollars, not pips."
Short Description (250 characters)
ML-powered Gold trading with 8 concurrent positions (5 Normal + 3 Recovery), automatic drawdown recovery, and full dollar-based SL/TP/Trailing. No point calculation confusion. Live dashboard included.
Long Description
Gold ML Adaptive v17.4.1.6 is a next-generation Expert Advisor specifically engineered for XAUUSD (Gold) trading. Unlike traditional EAs that struggle with point/pip calculations across different brokers, this EA operates entirely on DOLLAR-BASED risk management – you specify exactly how much you want to risk or profit in USD.
🧠 Core Technology
The EA employs a Lorentzian Distance-based Machine Learning model that analyzes three timeframes simultaneously (Current, H1, H4). The ML model continuously learns from market conditions, adapting to volatility and drawdown levels by dynamically adjusting its neighbor count for predictions.
🛡️ Dual-Mode Architecture
| Mode | Max Trades | Trigger | Strategy |
|---|---|---|---|
| Normal Mode | 5 | DD < 20% | Fast reversal scalping with ML confirmation |
| Recovery Mode | 3 | DD ≥ 25% | Anti-martingale sequence with 1.5x volume multiplier |
💵 Dollar-Based Risk Management (Key Innovation)
Set all risk parameters in actual dollars – no more point/pip confusion across different brokers:
-
Stop Loss: $30 per trade (or your custom amount)
-
Take Profit: $15 per trade
-
Breakeven: Activates at $5 profit
-
Secure Profit: Locks $1.50 profit
-
Trailing Start: Begins at $8 profit, steps $2.50
The EA automatically converts these dollar amounts to the correct point distance based on your current lot size and broker's tick value.
⏱️ Smart Cooldown System
Prevents overtrading with flexible cooldown options:
-
Time-based: Wait X minutes after trade close
-
Candle-based: Wait X candles after trade close

💪 STRENGTHS
1. ✅ Dollar-Based Risk Management
The #1 selling point. No other Gold EA offers this. Traders understand dollars, not points. This eliminates broker discrepancies and simplifies position sizing.
2. ✅ Dual-Timeframe ML Confirmation
Trades only execute when Current timeframe ML agrees with H1 ML. H4 provides additional context for dashboard display.
3. ✅ Intelligent Recovery System
Unlike dangerous martingale EAs, this uses:
-
Limited to 3 recovery trades
-
1.5x multiplier (not 2x)
-
Group profit target for sequence closure
-
Recovery only activates during actual drawdown
4. ✅ Comprehensive Position Management
-
Automatic SL/TP placement
-
Breakeven protection
-
Secure profit locking
-
Dollar-based trailing stops
-
Worst-position closure at 60% DD
5. ✅ Professional Cooldown System
Prevents emotional overtrading and protects against rapid-fire losses with configurable cooldown periods.
6. ✅ Live Dashboard
Real-time monitoring without needing to open multiple windows. All critical information displayed on chart.
7. ✅ No Point/Pip Confusion
Set $300 SL – the EA calculates everything. Works identically across IC Markets, FTMO, Pepperstone, any broker.
8. ✅ Consecutive Loss Protection
Tracks losses and displays warnings. Cooldown activates after each trade close.
⚠️ WARNINGS & DISCLAIMERS
⚠️ CRITICAL: Read before purchasing
| Risk Factor | Details |
|---|---|
| Market Suitability | Designed ONLY for XAUUSD (Gold). Will not work properly on Forex pairs. |
| Timeframe Required | Any , But M15 and h1 is recommended. |
| Minimum Balance | Recommended **$1000+** for proper risk distribution. $500 absolute minimum. |
| Broker Requirements | Low-spread broker essential (ECN/RAW preferred). 60 spread limit hard-coded. |
| Historical Data | ML requires 2000+ data points. First 50-100 trades may be less accurate. |
| Recovery Mode Risk | Recovery uses higher lot sizes (1.5x multiplier). Can increase drawdown if market continues against position. |
| Drawdown Tolerance | 25% DD needed to activate recovery. Some traders may find this too high/low. |
| VPS Requirement | 24/7 VPS mandatory for consistent ML data collection and trade execution. |
| Not a "Set & Forget" | Monthly review recommended. Monitor drawdown levels and adjust parameters as market conditions change. |
| Past Performance | Backtests do not guarantee future results. Gold is highly volatile. |
