XAU Master EA

This EA is not performing at all maximum trades are in loss and there is no major update in this EA so i will not reccomend it

Hi Branislav! I tested how XAU Master handles the 0.5% risk setting when Swing SL places the stop far from the entry. My goal was to see whether the EA skips a trade if the minimum lot size would make its risk exceed 0.5%. I ran the same backtest with a $10,000 starting balance, keeping all other settings unchanged, using these four modes in order: Fixed lot size (0.01 lots), Fixed lot size exponential, Automatic (0.5% risk), and Automatic exponential (0.5% risk). This is a prop firm account, so I need the EA to respect the risk limit I set. I can’t have an individual trade risk more than the planned 0.5%. With Fixed lot size, the relevant trades opened at 0.01 lots. Their entry-to-SL distances were $64.01, $68.20, and $80.77, giving risks of 0.64%, 0.68%, and 0.81%. Fixed lot size exponential opened the same trades at 0.05 lots with the same stops. Both Automatic modes opened them at 0.01 lots with the same entries and stops as Fixed lot size. So, with Swing SL, the 0.5% limit is **not respected on each trade** in this test. When the calculated volume would be below the 0.01 minimum, the EA opens the position at 0.01 anyway, at a risk above the configured 0.5%, instead of skipping it. Is that the intended behavior? Could you add an option to skip trades when the minimum lot size would exceed the selected risk percentage?

你好 Branislav， 我是 XAU Master (v1.9) 的实盘用户。首先感谢你开发这个EA。但是我在实盘交易中遇到了利润回吐非常严重的问题。 我的实盘经验： 比如今天账户浮盈100美金，它没有止盈也没有锁住利润。然后K线反转了。明天行情反向，结果倒亏50美金，或者触发止损。利润回吐太严重了。 我在你的手册里看到有个“Key Functions”提到了“Profit locking”（利润锁定）。但在参数（Inputs）里我没找到具体的设置项，或者不知道怎么正确设置。 我的问题是： 目前XAU Master 有内置的移动止损、保本止损或者基于利润百分比的保护功能来防止这种大幅回吐吗？ 如果有，我应该调整哪些具体的参数？如果没有，针对这个问题您有什么建议吗？ 作为一个小资金交易者，我对回撤非常敏感。目前这种利润回吐让我的资金曲线波动极大。 感谢你的工作，期待你的指导，希望能更好地配置这个EA来保护利润。 祝好

I´m not sure how someone can configure the setting parameter. There are 5 different Systems, 1-5, but you don´t know which strategy is which? For example, System 3 and System 4 have exactly the same parameters to set, but how do you know which settings do what in which scenario? Is this random? Is this for backtesting? Then it´s a typical sign of overfitting the EA... I miss an overview of Systems 1-5; what does the name "System" mean? What strategy is behind? I guess this is an important question to understand which settings and risks you can set under which conditions ... When this is really a secret of the author, you trade blind, without any concept.

Backtesting your EA revealed a critical issue: the stop-loss function for Systems 1–10 is broken (a severe defect). In both rounds of backtest logs, market order entries for Systems 1–10 consistently showed the following: System 1: Attempting SELL 0.01 lots, SL=0.00000, TP=0.00000 failed modify #4 sell 0.01 XAUUSDc sl: 0.000, tp: 0.000 -> sl: 0.000, tp: 0.000 [Invalid stops] ← Repeated on every candlestick • Every position opened by Systems 1–10 was "naked" (lacking any stop-loss protection); the EA attempted to set SL/TP but failed every time (due to "Invalid stops")—a pattern repeated thousands of times over a 19-month period. • Even after changing `SL_Mode` from 1/2 to 0 (fixed stop-loss) and disabling all swing stop-loss settings, the results remained identical. This proves that these parameters are completely ineffective in this compiled `.ex5` version, as the stop-loss calculation consistently returns 0. • Only System 11 (DB Double Breakout) functioned correctly: when placing pending orders at 01:15 daily, it correctly included SL/TP values ​​(e.g., sl: 2646.149, tp: 2664.489). Conclusion: In the specific build of `XAU Master EA.ex5` you provided, the "protective stop-loss" function for Systems 1–10 is broken—which directly contradicts the product description stating that "every trade has a protective stop-loss." The +24.57% return achieved in this backtest occurred while trading without stop-loss protection; therefore, it cannot serve as a valid basis for live trading (as losses would be uncapped during extreme market volatility). Please prioritize fixing this error and provide me with the corrected version.

I conducted the aforementioned tests using an MQL5 AI, and the results from running it on a live Exness MQL5 Cent account were also poor.

Good Ea helped me pass a prop firm of 15k last year, great developer support but not consistent

Ich nutze den EA seit ca. 4 Monaten. In der Zeit hat sich die Investition bereits 10x ausgezahlt. Ich stelle das Risiko meist 1-2 Stufen unter dem empfohlenem Level ein.

EA clearly has an edge. Unfortunately the Drawdown was a bit too much to survive prop trading over the last months. But as you can see now the EA does very well in trending markets. Solid strategies used in this EA and I like the multiple strategies used. No EA in the world can be profitable all the time, every month. This EA flies when gold is trending but the draw down was a bit too much for me during March and May, even with the recommended lot size. I will certainly use the EA on a private account and maybe a prop account again with a very low lot size. Thanks for putting so much energy in to developing the EA. Also, I would like to add that I ran a good portion before the update in March.

I have bought this EA yesterday but it is not taking any trades till now

i have rent the XAU Master for a month but why no open position for so long?

I have been running the bot on a demo account for four months now and have had a positive experience with it. Since then, the EA has generated a 60% profit for me. I will be switching to a live account soon.

I’ve been running XAU Master EA (Connector, version 1.81) for several months now, and unfortunately the performance has been consistently disappointing. The system has been losing money over the past months, and it’s far from what I expected when purchasing it.

Hi Bransislav, XAU Master is working great for me. can you please add "Daily Profit limit" same as you have daily draw down? this will help me securing daily small profit. example if Profit limit reach to $ or % EA stop for the rest of the day. this change will make your EA the best ever!!! thanks again for your hard work and support.

I use this EA with 4 live accounts across 4 different brokers. There were times (especially at the beginning of 2026) when it was frustrating because it was mainly generating losses. In the meantime, all 4 accounts have recovered very well and are showing gains of up to 800% in some cases. It depends heavily on the broker and the account balance. I use the first 10 systems and apply a manual lot setting (0.01 lot per USD 1000). Important: let the EA do its job. I forced myself not to intervene, even when I thought I was smarter than the EA. For me, it works well, and by now it has become an EA I trust. I hope it stays that way.

I´ve tried with different settings from both the author and other users in both demo and live account. This EA is a money haemorrhage. Stay away from it.

The new version of the backtesting has very low returns and the parameters are not clear. Could you optimize it?

Quality EA, results have been great so far and the developer is great with responding to queries

Till Now i used for 2 weaks, so far no good results For me its not working Not Recommended

poor performance I don't recommend it
