XAUUSD Multi Timeframe EMA Pullback EA H1 Trend M15 Confirm M5 Entry
A clean multi-timeframe pullback system for XAUUSD. H1 trend filter, M15 confirmation, M5 entry. Swing-based stop loss, fixed risk-reward, session window, circuit breaker. Passes MQL5 automated Strategy Tester validation.Multi-Timeframe Trend Alignment — The Institutional Way
Retail traders watch one timeframe. Institutions watch three. This EA implements the classic multi-timeframe trend-following approach: H1 defines the trend, M15 confirms, M5 times the entry. Only when all three align does it trade.
Strategy Logic (Non-Repainting — All Signals on Closed Bars)
Trend Definition (H1 — The “Big Picture”):
- Bullish: EMA(20) > EMA(50) > EMA(200) — all sloping up
- Bearish: EMA(20) < EMA(50) < EMA(200) — all sloping down
- Neutral: Any other alignment — no trades
Confirmation (M15 — The “Trigger”):
- Same EMA alignment must agree with H1
- EMA(20) crosses EMA(50) in trend direction = setup armed
Entry (M5 — The “Precision”):
- Price pulls back to EMA(20) or EMA(50) on M5
- Confirmation candle closes in trend direction
- Enter on next candle open
Why This Works:
| Timeframe | Role | Why |
|---|---|---|
| H1 | Trend filter | Filters noise, catches institutional trend |
| M15 | Confirmation | Validates trend hasn't reversed |
| M5 | Entry timing | Better fill, tighter SL |
Exit Logic
- Stop Loss: ATR(14) x 2 on M15 (volatility-adaptive)
- Take Profit: 1:2 or 1:3 R:R (configurable)
- Trailing Stop: Optional, ATR-based on M15
- Time Exit: Optional close at session end (NY close)
Prop Firm Risk Engine (Built-In)
1. Hard Daily Loss Cap (Equity Kill Switch)
Equity drops > limit → all positions closed, new trades blocked.
2. Maximum Drawdown Guard
Account equity drops > max DD from initial balance → full liquidation.
3. Session-Aware Risk Scaling
Auto-reduces size during: London Open (08:00–09:00 UTC), NY Open (13:00–14:00 UTC), Overlap (13:00–16:00 UTC).
4. Economic Calendar News Filter
Pauses 15 min before/after NFP, CPI, FOMC, ECB, BoE. Uses MQL5 built-in calendar.
5. Fixed Fractional Position Sizing
Risks 1.5% of current equity per trade — compounds correctly.
6. Position Limits
Prevents overtrading and correlation risk.
