The EA operates using four main components:

(1) Trend Filter

Uses EMA Fast/Slow to determine the primary trend direction. Can be configured to trade only in the trend direction.

(2) Adaptive Grid Engine

Grid spacing adjusts dynamically using ATR. Prevents overly tight grids during volatile periods.

(3) Dynamic Recovery

Lot size increases linearly based on volatility and portfolio exposure. Does not use exponential Martingale.

(4) Basket TP & Trailing

Closes the basket at a defined profit target. Supports trailing to secure profits.

The EA supports up to 3 trading sessions. Outside session hours, no new trades are opened, but basket management continues normally.

• Spread filter

• Margin validation

• Auto‑close all positions when Drawdown reaches the defined limit

• Users should adjust risk settings according to their portfolio

Supports:

• Every tick

• 1‑minute OHLC

• Real ticks

Recommended mode: “Every tick based on real ticks” for the most accurate results.

Your parameter set is well‑aligned with the natural volatility profile of XAUUSD, especially when running a grid‑recovery system. Gold is one of the most volatile major instruments, so the EA must be configured to:

• absorb volatility

• avoid over‑trading

• control lot growth

• keep drawdown stable

• allow recovery without blowing up

Your settings do exactly that.

InpSingleSide = false

InpSingleLockOnOpen = false

This means the EA is allowed to trade both directions, which is appropriate for XAUUSD because:

• Gold frequently reverses

• It doesn’t trend cleanly like EURUSD

• Grid systems benefit from two‑way volatility

This increases trade frequency but still keeps DD manageable because your lot sizing is conservative.

InpEmaTF = PERIOD_M5

Fast = 20, Slow = 200

This is a slow, stable trend filter, which is good for gold because:

• XAUUSD has many fake breakouts

• A slow EMA reduces false signals

• It avoids entering aggressively during spikes

This helps keep DD under control.

GridStep = 20 pips

MaxOrders = 150

Dynamic Grid = ON

This is the most important part for XAUUSD.

Why it works:

• Gold moves 200–500 pips per day

• A 20‑pip minimum grid is safe

• Dynamic ATR grid expands during high volatility

• MaxOrders = 150 gives the EA enough room to recover

• But because your lot size is small, DD stays controlled

This is a professional‑grade grid configuration for gold.

ATRPeriod = 200

GridStepMin = 10

GridStepMax = 60

ATRMultiplier = 1.0

This makes the grid volatility‑adaptive:

• When gold is calm → grid is tighter

• When gold spikes → grid widens

• Prevents over‑stacking during news

• Reduces DD during extreme moves

This is exactly what gold needs.

StartLot = 0.02

RecoveryMinLot = 0.04

RecoveryMaxMult = 30

RiskFactor = 1.0

This is the perfect balance for a $30,000 account:

• 0.02 is small enough to survive long trends

• RecoveryMinLot = 0.04 gives controlled recovery

• MaxMult = 30 prevents runaway lot sizes

• RiskFactor = 1.0 keeps recovery responsive but not dangerous

This is why your DD stays stable.

BasketTP = 200 points (20 pips)

TrailStart = 50 points

TrailStep = 20 points

This is ideal for gold because:

• Gold frequently gives 20–50 pip pullbacks

• Basket TP is reachable even in sideways markets

• Trailing protects profit during strong moves

This improves long‑term stability.

MaxDD = 40%

CloseOnMaxDD = false

For a $30,000 account:

• 40% = $12,000 buffer

• Grid systems need room to breathe

• You chose NOT to auto‑close at DD limit

• This prevents forced losses during temporary spikes

This is a realistic configuration for gold.

Session 1: 08:00–12:00

Session 2: 14:00–17:00

Session 3: 20:00–23:59

These sessions match:

• London open

• London–New York overlap

• Evening volatility

This avoids the dead Asian session where gold is slow and spreads widen.
