Kernvio Gold Trend Pullback is a fully automated Expert Advisor for XAUUSD (Gold) H1. Its core engine is a CCI trend-pullback strategy: it only trades long, in the direction of the long-term gold uptrend, entering on pullbacks confirmed by CCI(14) and exiting with an asymmetric 1:5 reward-to-risk target (ATR-based stop). A momentum gate (price above its level of 500 bars ago) keeps the EA out of bear regimes, a drawdown throttle halves risk after a 5% drawdown, and an optional night-drift module adds a small time-based long position during the quiet Asian session.
Verified backtest results (MT5 Strategy Tester, XAUUSD H1)
- 2021-2024 (4 years, default long-only config): net gain about +40% at 1% risk, profit factor 1.21-1.28, max drawdown 10.6-16.5%, Sharpe about 1.2.
- Out-of-sample 2025 - Jul 2026 (with drawdown throttle): about +30%, profit factor 1.58, max drawdown 7.1%, 165 trades, win rate 44%, Sharpe 3.07.
Honest limitations - read before buying: this is a long-only gold strategy by design. In the 2016-2020 sideways gold regime the same logic was NOT profitable (profit factor 0.82). The EA earns its edge from trending bull regimes in gold; the built-in momentum gate is there to keep it flat in bad regimes, but there is no guarantee. Win rate is around 44% - the 1:5 reward:risk profile means losing streaks are normal and patience is required. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
