GoldenZone Pro Scalper

GOLD M5 Scalper is an automated trading system built for XAUUSD on the M5 timeframe. It scans price structure to find strong support and resistance levels using swing fractals and opens single breakout trades when price moves past those levels.

Even works with small account sizes 100$

How the Strategy Works

Instead of guessing tops and bottoms, the Expert Advisor waits for price to build clear swing highs and lows on the 5-minute Gold chart. When a breakout occurs beyond a confirmed level by a set number of points, the EA enters a single trade and immediately places a fixed Stop Loss on the server.

To protect your account during volatile market hours and wide spreads, the EA uses built-in session time filters and a cooldown timer between trades. Once a trade moves into profit, an optional trailing stop steps in to lock in gains automatically.
