Gold Custom AI
Gold Custom AI is an Expert Advisor for XAUUSD on the H1 chart.
Strategy
The Expert reads the CCI indicator on M15, M30, H1, H4 and D1. On each new H1 bar, an H1 CCI filter sets the direction: above +100 for buy, below -100 for sell. An entry is opened only when the current readings also match a pattern with the same direction. New entries are allowed from 15:00 to 11:00 server time. Open positions are closed before the market closes on Friday. The Expert does not use martingale, grid or trailing stops.
Risk
On XAUUSD, each entry uses a take profit of 16.5 and a stop loss of 40 in price units, so one stop loss cancels more than two take profits of the same size. These distances are limited to 0.825% and 2% of the price, which only matters at gold prices below 2000 or on lower-priced symbols. By default, each entry risks 10% of the balance at the stop loss. This is a high risk setting. Up to two positions can be open at once, and their risk adds up.
When equity falls 12% from its observed peak, the risk on new entries is halved until the drawdown recovers. Trading costs and price gaps can make a loss larger than planned. You can select a fixed manual lot size in the inputs instead of the built-in risk setting.
Requirements
Designed for XAUUSD on H1. Use on other symbols is not recommended. With a standard 100 oz contract, the minimum lot of 0.01 fits the 10% risk budget from a balance of about 400 USD. Below that, the Expert skips entries on a live account.
Strategy Tester
The tester runs at one fixed spread and only delivers ticks while its data is open, so the spread limit and the market session check apply on live charts only. With a deposit too small for the 10% budget, a test uses the minimum lot instead of skipping entries. If the history has no data for M15, M30, H1, H4 or D1, the pattern table cannot be read: up to five minimum-lot entries then use the H1 filter alone, the journal says so, and those trades do not represent the strategy. Load history for all five timeframes before judging a test.
Chart panel and inputs
A chart panel shows the account, drawdown and trading status, and can pause automatic entries, send manual orders with a second click to confirm, and close this Expert's positions. Settings are arranged into eight titled sections in the inputs.
Risk warning
Trading forex and gold involves high risk, and you can lose all of your capital. Backtest results are simulated, and past results do not guarantee future results. Please test on a demo account first and only trade with money you can afford to lose.
