Expert Advisor for MetaTrader 5 — Gold / XAUUSD focus
Version: 1.00
What it is
XAU Gap Fill Rider D1 is an Expert Advisor for gold on the D1 chart. It participates when daily price interacts with technical imbalance zones derived from OHLC geometry, then manages the position with selectable exit styles.
Built for structured automated participation — not grid, not martingale. Evaluate on demo with your broker's spreads and your own risk profile.
This product is a technical OHLC system. Exact gap thresholds and entry equations remain internal product design and are not published here.
Honesty note: public Market cards use the full verified Strategy Tester sample (see numbers below). The last ~2 years alone contain only 1 closed trade on this D1 mode — too thin for a headline card — so illustrations do not invent a high trade count for a short window.

Strategy notes
Product internals detect technical imbalance zones on the chart. There are no extra recipe knobs exposed beyond the risk / exit inputs above — the entry geometry stays proprietary.

Last ~2 years only (2024-08-03 → 2026-07-31, same report deals filter): n=1 closed trade, net ~$1,471.91, PF n/a — not used on public cards because the sample is too thin / non-representative.
These figures are illustrative research context — not a profit guarantee. Past Strategy Tester results do not predict future performance.
Risk notice
Trading leveraged CFDs / FX / metals can result in loss of capital. Use only risk you can afford. Review lot inputs before live use. No system wins every trade.
