DX XAUUSD trades gold with twelve independent baskets. Each basket waits for its own time window and its own market condition, opens a first position and, if price moves against it, adds positions at measured distances, then closes the whole basket together at a small target. Every basket has its own magic number, so the EA always knows which position belongs to which basket, even after a restart.
One XAUUSD chart, any timeframe, no manual work.
Real-tick backtest
MetaTrader 5 Strategy Tester, every tick based on real ticks, VT Markets XAUUSD, $10,000, January 2024 to October 2026, Level 1 (default):
- Net profit +$52,967 (balance $10,000 → $62,967)
- Profit factor 3.41, 2,220 trades, 34 of 34 months closed in profit
- Maximum floating equity drawdown: 53 % (one basket during the gold move of 7 October 2026)
Risk Levels 1 to 7
Higher levels trade larger lots on exactly the same signals, so profit and drawdown grow together. Level 1 is the default and the level we recommend. In our real-tick test, Level 4 did not survive the 7 October 2026 gold move. Use higher levels only on money you can lose, and always with the Equity Stop.
Protection
- Equity Stop: if the floating loss reaches X % of the balance, every position of the EA is closed and it stops.
- Daily Loss Limit: closes and pauses until the next day.
- Max Open Lots and Max Spread filters.
- Every order is checked before it is sent: volume, margin, stop and freeze levels, trading session.
- Restart safe: baskets are recognised by their magic numbers.
How it trades — please read
- This is a basket / averaging (grid) system. Positions are opened without a stop loss; a basket closes together at its target.
- Most baskets close within minutes or hours with a small profit. Drawdown comes from the few that run against you, and one of them can be large (53 % at Level 1 in October 2026).
- If you want a hard limit on the account, set the Equity Stop.
Setup
- Attach to one XAUUSD chart (any timeframe). Gold symbols with a suffix (XAUUSD-ECN, XAUUSD.r, GOLD) work.
- Keep Level 1 unless you accept a larger drawdown.
- Server time: New York close brokers (GMT+2 winter / GMT+3 summer) work out of the box. For other brokers, set the Fixed GMT Offset.
- Keep MetaTrader 5 running 24/5. A VPS is recommended. Leverage 1:500 was used in testing.
- The EA uses the Magic Number up to +999. Do not run another EA in that range on the same symbol.
Minimum deposit
- Minimum: $1,000 at Level 1 (leverage 1:500). Real-tick test from $1,000, Jan 2024 - Oct 2026: balance $8,323, PF 3.49, max floating drawdown 54 % (same October 2026 basket).
- Recommended: $10,000. Below about $2,000 the broker's 0.01 minimum lot is larger than Level 1 intends, so a small account carries more risk until it grows.
- Below $1,000 the EA does not trade (the lot it calculates is under the broker minimum; a $500 test placed zero trades).
- Higher levels need proportionally more capital for the same safety.
Important
Backtest results. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Averaging systems can draw down hard in a strong one-way gold move.
