Gold Martingale Auto Switching EA (MT4)
Smart Trend-Based Martingale with Drawdown Protection
Product Description
Gold Martingale Auto Switching EA (MT4) is an intelligent Expert Advisor that combines Moving Average signals with a directional Martingale strategy. Unlike traditional martingale systems that double down on losing positions in the same direction, this EA opens positions in both BUY and SELL directions based on market trends, creating a balanced hedging approach.How It Works
The EA monitors price action using a Moving Average indicator. When it detects a strong trend (consecutive candles above or below the MA), it begins opening positions in that direction. Each new position in the same direction increases in lot size using a controlled martingale factor. Positions in opposite directions act as a hedge, protecting your account from major drawdowns.
Key Benefits
-
Smart Trend Detection – Uses MA crossover with streak confirmation to avoid false signals

Balanced Risk – Opens positions in both directions to hedge against sudden reversals
-
Controlled Growth – Martingale factor of 1.2x provides gradual position scaling
-
Distance Protection – Ensures minimum pip distance between positions to avoid clustering
-
Visual Dashboard – Real-time display of all key metrics on your chart
-
Target Profit System – Automatically closes all positions when profit target is reached
Ideal For
-
Traders who want automated trend-following with built-in risk management
-
Those looking for a controlled martingale approach with hedging protection
-
Backtesting enthusiasts who want to optimize parameters for different market conditions
Input Parameters
Risk Management
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| RiskPercent | Target profit as percentage of account balance (e.g., 0.5 = 0.5%). When floating profit reaches this level, all positions close. |
| MartingaleFactor | Multiplier for each new position in the same direction (1.2 = 20% increase). Lower values = slower growth, safer trading. |
| InitialLotPer1000 | Base lot size per 1000 units of account balance. Example: 0.01 means $1000 balance = 0.01 lot. |
| MaxOrders | Maximum total positions allowed (both directions combined). Prevents overexposure. |
Signal Settings
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| MAPeriod | Number of periods for the Moving Average calculation (e.g., 50). Higher values = smoother but slower signals. |
| SignalTimeframe | Timeframe for signal generation in minutes (60 = H1, 240 = H4). Higher timeframes filter out market noise. |
| MinSignalStreak | Minimum consecutive signals required before opening a trade. Higher values = more confirmation, fewer trades. |
Position Management
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| MinDistancePips | Minimum distance in pips between positions of the same direction. Prevents orders from being too close. |
| EnforceDistanceForHedge | When true, enforces the minimum distance rule strictly. Recommended for backtesting. |
| MagicNumber | Unique identifier for EA's orders. Important when running multiple EAs on same chart. |
| Slippage | Maximum allowed slippage in points when opening/closing orders. |
| PrintDebug | Enable/disable detailed logging to Experts tab. Useful for testing and troubleshooting. |
