Gold Hunter Trend Scalper
- Experts
- Version: 2.31
- Activations: 10
Gold Hunter Trend Scalper is a trend-following scalping Expert Advisor designed for gold (XAUUSD). It looks for short pullbacks in the direction of the current trend and holds one position at a time. Every position is opened with a stop loss and a take profit, both sized from the Average True Range, so they adapt to the current volatility of gold.
How it works
The EA checks its rules once per closed bar. A trade is opened when the fast EMA crosses the medium EMA in the direction of the trend, the price is on the correct side of the trend EMA, and RSI confirms momentum without being at an extreme level. An optional higher-timeframe EMA filter allows only buys above it and only sells below it. When a trade moves into profit, a trailing stop follows the price.
Risk control
You can trade a fixed lot or a percentage of the balance per trade, cap the maximum lot, set a daily loss limit that pauses trading for the rest of the day, limit trading to chosen hours, and skip entries when the spread is too wide. Before every order the EA checks the free margin and the volume limits of the symbol. The EA does not use martingale, grid or averaging.
