Gold Order Flow

Gold Order Flow — reads short-term buying and selling pressure from the ticks inside every M15 candle and follows unusually strong moves.

Why traders follow it

• A tick-based approach that does not rely on classic indicators
• Stop-loss and take-profit on every order, plus a time limit
• One position at a time, fixed lot: no martingale, no grid
• Adaptive threshold, updated daily from past data only

How it trades

Every price update is read as buying or selling pressure. When the pressure becomes unusually strong compared with its own recent history, the EA trades in that direction.

Backtest at the recommended size (0.01 lot on 2,000 USD)

• 301 trades in about 20 months (Mar 2025 – Nov 2026), long and short
• Net result +3,415 USD (171% of 2,000 USD), profit factor 1.67
• Largest drawdown about 21%

MT4 Strategy Tester, every tick, Exness tick data, commission included. Backtests are hypothetical and usually look better than live trading.

What to expect

About half of the trades won in the backtest. Results depend on the ticks your broker sends, so live trading can drift further from the backtest than candle-based systems. Losing streaks are normal (up to 9 trades in a row in the test), so size your account for them.

Recommended size

0.01 lot per 2,000 USD. 0.01 lot per 1,000 USD also works but doubles the risk.

About this account

Live since 24 Oct 2026 on an Exness Raw Spread MT4 account (leverage 1:200), 2,000 USD. This is my commercial signal account, so it trades larger than the recommended size: 0.02 lot. To copy at the recommended size, set "Use no more than … % of deposit" in your copy settings to about half of what you would otherwise use. Small balances may be copied at the broker's minimum lot (0.01).

Risk

Past results and backtests do not guarantee future results. Your results will differ because of spread, slippage and execution. Leveraged gold trading can lose money quickly; use only money you can afford to lose.
