MT5 Expert Advisor (EA) Developer for Automated XAU/USD (Gold) Trading Bot

I am looking for an experienced MetaTrader 5 (MT5) developer to create a fully automated Arbitrage & Hedging Expert Advisor (EA) trading bot for XAU/USD (Gold vs. USD). The EA should be programmed in MQL5 and must implement an arbitrage-based hedging strategy to maximize profit while minimizing risk.

The bot should be able to detect inefficiencies in price movements, execute trades based on predefined hedge parameters, and dynamically manage risk exposure. It should efficiently handle multiple trades simultaneously and execute rapid-fire trading operations to capitalize on small price discrepancies.

Trading Strategy & Execution:

1. Trading Instrument:

• Primary Symbol: XAU/USD (Gold vs. USD)

2. Strategy Type: Arbitrage & Hedging

• Arbitrage Execution: The bot should detect price inefficiencies in XAU/USD across different liquidity providers or within the same broker.
• Hedging Mechanism:
  • Place offsetting trades to reduce risk exposure.
  • Maintain a net neutral position while capturing price divergences.
  • Close profitable positions when target thresholds are met.

3. Entry & Exit Conditions:

• Entry Conditions (Arbitrage Triggering Mechanism):

  • Identify price differences between XAU/USD bid/ask spreads on different feeds.
  • Enter buy/sell positions simultaneously to exploit price gaps.
  • Execute trades based on predefined latency and pricing inefficiencies.

• Exit Conditions (Hedging & Profit Locking):

  • Close positions when price converges and profits are locked in.
  • Set automatic Take Profit (T/P) & Stop Loss (S/L) levels to control risk.
  • Implement a trailing stop feature to maximize profits.
  • Manage exposure to avoid prolonged market exposure.

Risk Management & Protection:

1. Dynamic Lot Sizing: Adjust based on available balance and trade risk.
2. Max Spread Protection: Avoid entering trades when the spread is too high.
3. Trade Frequency Control: Prevent overtrading by setting execution limits.
4. News Filter (Optional): Avoid trading during high-impact news releases.
5. Auto-Recovery System: Close trades systematically if positions become imbalanced.

Technical Requirements:

1. Platform: MetaTrader 5 (MT5)
2. Language: MQL5
3. Automated Execution: Yes (Arbitrage & Hedging Mechanism)
4. Latency-Based Execution: Yes (Fast Order Execution Required)
5. Multi-Layered Hedging: Ensure trades are placed across different conditions to balance exposure.
6. Backtesting & Optimization: The EA must be tested with historical data to ensure profitability.
7. Customization Options:
   • Adjustable Risk Per Trade
   • Customizable S/L, T/P, and Hedging Parameters
   • Customizable Execution Speed and Slippage Control
   • Ability to Toggle Arbitrage Mode On/Off

Deliverables:

1. Fully functional .ex5 and .mq5 files.
2. Well-documented source code for future modifications.
3. Detailed User Manual on settings, installation, and optimization.
4. Backtesting Results with optimized settings.
5. Support & Bug Fixes for initial implementation.

Budget & Timeline:

• Budget: (To be discussed based on complexity)
• Expected Delivery: (Specify deadline)

Preferred Qualifications:

• Proven experience in MQL5 programming.
• Strong understanding of arbitrage trading & hedging strategies.
• Experience developing latency-sensitive trading algorithms.
• Ability to optimize & backtest the EA before deployment.
