GoldX Trend Trader — Gold (XAUUSD) M30 Trend-Following EA
GoldX is a fully automated trend-following Expert Advisor built for XAUUSD on the M30 chart. It enters only in the direction of an established trend, places a stop loss on every trade, and protects open profit automatically as the move develops, so winners can ride the trend while losers are cut early.
[Key features]
- Fully automated; one chart, one symbol (XAUUSD M30)
- Every trade has a stop loss. No martingale, no grid, no averaging, no hedging
- Maximum one open position at a time
- Lot size scales with account equity (0.01 lot per 1,000 USD, adjustable)
- Entry, exit and P/L of every trade are marked on the chart, placed so they never cover the candles
- Info panel shows current spread and recent average trading cost, with a red warning when costs are too high
- Parameters are fixed and validated on many years of history; no optimization needed by the user
[Backtest summary (fixed 0.01 lot, spread and commission included)]
- Nov 2024 – Oct 2026: net 3,707 USD, max drawdown 368 USD, profit factor 1.87, 366 trades
- 2003 – 2024 (data not used for parameter selection): net 1,513 USD, max drawdown 471 USD, profit factor 1.12, 4,010 trades
- 10 of 22 calendar years were losing, mostly long sideways years for gold; strong trend years produced most of the profit

[Recommended setup]
- Symbol XAUUSD, timeframe M30
- At least 1,000 USD per 0.01 lot
- Low-spread, low-commission ECN account recommended; high trading costs significantly reduce performance
- Run 24/7 on a VPS
[Inputs]
- InpLotsPer1000: lots per 1,000 USD of equity (default 0.01)
- InpMagic: magic number (default 880808)
- InpShowViz: show trade markers on the chart

[Risk warning]
This is a trend-following system with a win rate of about 37–45%. It relies on a few large winners to cover many small losses, so losing streaks and losing years will occur. Past backtest results do not guarantee future performance. Trading forex and precious metals carries high risk; trade only with money you can afford to lose and test on a demo account first.
