TrendGate EA for MetaTrader 5
TrendGate EA is a fully automated Expert Advisor for the MetaTrader 5 platform, designed to trade established market trends using a disciplined, rule-based approach.
The EA is optimized for XAUUSD (Gold) and is particularly well suited for M5 timeframe trend conditions, where short- to medium-term directional moves can be identified with sufficient momentum and volatility.
TrendGate EA focuses on trend confirmation rather than frequent trading. It combines trend direction, momentum strength, and volatility filtering to ensure that trades are opened only when market conditions are aligned, helping to reduce activity during sideways or low-quality market phases.
All trades are managed automatically from entry to exit using predefined risk controls.
Trading Logic Overview
-
Trades are executed only when a clear trend structure is confirmed
-
Trend direction is defined using an Exponential Moving Average (EMA)
-
Momentum strength is filtered using the Average Directional Index (ADX)
-
Volatility conditions are evaluated using ATR-based filtering
-
The EA avoids overtrading and does not attempt to trade ranging markets
This approach is designed for traders who prefer structured trend-following systems, especially in markets with strong intraday volatility such as gold.
