Product Name: Trend Following Intraday (5min entry) EA
Product Description:
Trend Following Intraday (5min entry) is an automated Expert Advisor developed for the MetaTrader 5 platform. It is designed to identify and follow intraday trends, primarily optimized for XAUUSD (Gold). The EA does not employ grid trading, Martingale, counter-trend averaging, or any risk-compounding strategies.
Core Strategy:
-
Multi-timeframe confluence is used to filter market noise and determine the dominant trend direction.
-
Entry signals are generated only when multiple independent confirmations align with the higher‑timeframe trend.
-
The EA avoids opening positions in sideways or low‑volatility conditions through built‑in oscillation filters.
-
Each trade is protected by a fixed stop‑loss that adapts to current market volatility, with a predefined risk per trade.
Exit and Risk Management:
-
A graduated take‑profit mechanism is applied:
-
Partial closure at a predefined risk‑reward ratio to secure initial gains.
-
Dynamic trailing stop and conditional partial exit to protect profits as the trend develops.
-
Full position closure when the trend termination is detected.
-
-
Consecutive loss protection: after two losing trades in a row, new entries are suspended and existing positions are partially reduced.
-
Minimum equity guard: new positions are blocked when account equity falls below a user‑defined threshold.
-
Maximum lot size is capped at 1.0 lot to prevent over‑trading.
-
Only one position per symbol is allowed at any time, ensuring clear position management.
Operation and Compatibility:
-
The EA runs on the M5 timeframe and is compatible with all brokers offering XAUUSD, XAUUSDm, GOLD, or similar symbols.
-
It supports three trading directions: Both, Long Only, and Short Only.
-
Default parameters are pre‑optimized; advanced users may adjust lot size, stop‑loss multiplier, risk‑reward ratio, and risk thresholds.

The EA operates with low computational load, refreshing signals only on each M5 bar.
