CANBECFX GOLD
Expert Advisor for trading gold (XAUUSD) with a clear trend strategy, without the need to watch the screen.
WHAT IT DOES
- Analyzes the gold market on several timeframes at once (short to long term).
- Detects when the market is trending and in which direction.
- Opens buy or sell trades only when conditions are favorable.
- Automatically places the stop loss and take profit of each trade.
- Protects profits by moving the stop loss to breakeven.
- Limits daily losses to protect the account capital.
- Shows a panel on the chart with the status of each timeframe, the current signal and the daily result.
- Avoids low-liquidity hours and, optionally, high-impact economic news.
HOW IT WORKS
- Analyzes 4 timeframes simultaneously, combining several trend indicators on each one.
- Strict hierarchy: the higher timeframe defines the trend direction and the lower timeframes must confirm it. If a single timeframe is against the trade, the trade is cancelled.
- Trend strength filter: only acts when the market shows a real, strong trend. If the market is sideways (no direction), it does not trade.
- Pullback entry: it does not chase the price. It waits for the price to pull back in favor of the trend and only then enters, getting better entry prices.
- Automatic management: every trade opens with automatically calculated stop loss and take profit, and is monitored on every tick until it closes.
SAFETY PROTECTIONS
- Market hours validation: checks the real gold sessions and trades only when the market is open, with a safety margin at openings and closings. Avoids failed attempts outside sessions.
- Volume validation: checks the minimum, maximum and step lot allowed by the broker before every order. Never sends an invalid volume.
- Margin validation: verifies available funds before opening a trade. If they are not enough, it reduces the lot to the maximum allowed or waits before retrying, avoiding rejected orders.
- Safe modifications: only sends stop loss and take profit changes when there is a real change and the price is outside the broker freeze zone.
- Minimum stop loss distance: automatically adjusts the level if the broker requires a minimum distance to the price.
ADVANTAGES
- Trades only with aligned multi-timeframe signals.
- The long-term trend rules: a single timeframe against the signal invalidates it.
- Avoids sideways markets, where most accounts wear down.
- Enters on pullbacks, does not chase prices: better entries and results.
- Complete protection: stop loss, take profit, automatic breakeven and daily loss limit.
- Adapted to broker conditions: respects hours, margins and real volumes of each account.

CONFIGURATION GUIDE / PARAMETER EXPLANATION
Parameters are grouped in the same order they appear in the settings window.
1. Entry signals

- Moving average method - type of average (exponential or simple) used to calculate signals.
- Applied price - price used to calculate the indicators (close, open, etc.).
- Slow average period - marks the long-term trend. Higher values give more stable and less frequent signals.
- Medium average period - balances the signal between long and short term.
- Fast average period - detects the immediate price movement. Lower values give more sensitivity.
- Analyzed timeframes - the 4 timeframes the robot reviews to confirm the trend (configured by default from short term to daily).
- Minimum aligned timeframes - how many timeframes must agree to open a trade. With the maximum value, it only trades with full alignment.
2. Timeframe hierarchy
- Enable hierarchy - makes the higher timeframe define the direction and a single opposing timeframe invalidate the whole signal.
- Pullback entry only - avoids buying or selling while chasing the price; waits for the favorable pullback.
- Pullback lookback candles - how many candles backwards it reviews to detect the pullback.
- Pullback reference - chooses the reference (fast or medium average) used to measure the pullback.
3. Basic trading

5. Stop Loss

7. Profit protection
