Gold Limit EA is an automated trading system for MetaTrader 5, designed for trading XAUUSD on the H1 timeframe.
The Expert Advisor uses a limit-entry based approach. Instead of entering the market immediately, the EA waits for price to reach a predefined entry area and places pending orders according to the internal strategy logic. This approach is designed to avoid emotional trading decisions and keep the execution fully systematic.
The EA includes automatic entry management, stop loss placement, position management, and risk-control logic. It is built for traders who prefer rule-based gold trading and want to test an automated strategy on XAUUSD.
Main features:
• Designed for XAUUSD / Gold
• Recommended timeframe: H1
• Automated pending order logic
• Limit-entry style trading approach
• Built-in stop loss logic
• Position management and trailing stop logic
• Risk and margin safety checks

Backtest example:
The included backtest was performed on XAUUSD H1 from 2015.01.01 to 2026.04.28 with an initial deposit of 100,000 USD.
Backtest results:
• Total Net Profit: 48,070.06 USD

The EA is not a scalping system. It is designed as a more selective intraday trading robot with a relatively low trade frequency. In the historical test, most trades were long positions, while short trades appeared less frequently and only under more selective conditions.
Recommended usage:
• Test on a demo account before live trading
• Use low risk settings
• Check broker conditions, spreads, commissions, and execution quality
• Run additional forward tests before using real funds
• Do not over-optimize the EA on short data periods
Important notice:
Past performance does not guarantee future results. Backtest results are based on historical data and may differ from live trading results. Real trading can be affected by spreads, slippage, commissions, execution delays, liquidity, market news, and broker-specific conditions.
