XAU QuantSweep MT5
Liquidity Sweep and Structural Reclaim Scalping Engine for Gold
XAU QuantSweep is a hybrid quantitative Expert Advisor designed specifically for XAUUSD / GOLD.
The architecture combines multi-timeframe structural analysis, liquidity sweep detection, live tick-based microstructure confirmation, intermarket correlation analysis, execution-condition filtering, automated news protection, and structured trade lifecycle management.
CORE CONCEPT
XAU QuantSweep is built around a simple principle:
Do not treat every price movement as a trading opportunity.
The engine first evaluates market structure, liquidity conditions, execution quality, and confirmation strength before allowing a trade.
The system is designed to identify structural liquidity sweeps and reclaim events, then validate them through lower-timeframe price behavior and live tick information.
This allows the EA to distinguish between a potentially meaningful structural event and ordinary market noise.
HOW THE ENGINE WORKS
1. Multi-Timeframe Structural Mapping
The CHTFZoneEngine analyzes higher-timeframe structure using H4, H1, and M15 data.
It maps structural zones from swing extremes and displacement-origin areas, then uses these zones as higher-timeframe context for the tactical trading engine.
2. Tactical Liquidity Detection
The CStructureEngine operates around the tactical M5 structure.
It monitors local swing levels, liquidity sweeps, structural breaks, and break-and-retest behavior.
3. Liquidity Sweep and Structural Reclaim
When a structural sweep is detected, the EA evaluates the subsequent reclaim behavior before an entry can be considered.
The CZoneLogicEngine and CSnapbackEngine evaluate the reclaim using real-time market information, including:
-
Tick velocity
-
Price acceleration
-
Price rejection behavior
-
Micro impulse characteristics
-
Tick-volume imbalance
-
Quote velocity
-
Retest confirmation
4. Intermarket Causality Analysis
Gold does not trade in isolation.
The CCausalityEngine evaluates the available relationship between XAUUSD and external market references such as the US Dollar Index (DXY) and a 10-Year US Treasury Yield proxy (US10Y).
When the available intermarket information conflicts with the structural trading thesis, the entry decision can be rejected rather than forced.
EXECUTION AND MARKET-CONDITION PROTECTION
Execution Quality Monitoring
The execution layer continuously evaluates trading conditions such as:
-
Current spread
-
Execution slippage
-
Freeze conditions
-
Order rejection conditions
-
Execution quality
-
Estimated trading viability after costs
When the execution environment becomes unsuitable, the system can block a trade or reduce exposure according to the configured risk and execution rules.
Spread Protection
The EA includes a configurable maximum spread threshold.
When the current spread exceeds the configured limit, the entry can be rejected instead of being executed under unfavorable trading conditions.
Execution Survivability
The architecture is designed to account for real execution conditions rather than assuming that every broker provides identical spread, latency, and fill behavior.
TRADE GOVERNANCE
Anti-Flapping Protection
The CAntiFlappingEngine contains multiple protection layers that help control rapid direction changes, repeated entries, and unstable trade behavior during choppy market conditions.
The system includes protection mechanisms related to signal persistence, exit cooldowns, direction locks, and re-entry control.
Trade State Machine
The trade lifecycle is governed through a structured state-machine architecture.
A position can progress through different management states as market conditions develop, instead of being handled as a static order from entry to exit.
Thesis Health Monitoring
The CHypothesisEngine tracks the logical health of the trade thesis, including expected behavior, invalidation conditions, and changing market evidence during the position lifecycle.
RISK AND POSITION MANAGEMENT
XAU QuantSweep is designed around controlled position exposure rather than recovery grids or progressive loss-recovery logic.
-
Independent Stop Loss protection
-
Configurable position limits
-
Optional dynamic lot sizing
-
Maximum lot-size control
-
Break-even management
-
Trailing-stop management
-
Partial-close management
-
Maximum holding-time control
-
Structural invalidation monitoring
The default configuration limits concurrent exposure to a single position.
Dynamic volume calculation can be enabled using the configured risk percentage and Stop Loss distance.
EXIT MANAGEMENT
The exit engine combines fixed protection with state-aware management.
Depending on the configuration and the evolution of the trade, the system can use:
-
Hard Stop Loss
-
Take Profit
-
Break-even
-
Trailing Stop
-
Partial Close
-
Opposite-signal confirmation
-
Structural invalidation
-
Exhaustion detection
-
Reversal confirmation
-
Maximum holding time
Exit Forensics
The system can evaluate post-entry behavior using persistence and confirmation requirements before advanced early-exit conditions are allowed to interfere with the original trade thesis.
NEWS FILTER
The EA includes an automated economic-calendar filter based on the MetaTrader 5 economic calendar functions.
The news protection layer can be configured to react to:
-
High-impact USD events
-
Medium-impact USD events
-
Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP)
-
Federal Reserve rate decisions / FOMC events
-
Interest-rate announcements
Configurable lockout windows can prevent new entries around selected economic events in order to reduce exposure to extreme event-driven market conditions.
TRADE AUDIT AND POST-TRADE LOG
XAU QuantSweep includes an automated trade-audit layer designed to preserve post-trade information for later analysis.
The CSelfAuditEngine and CPostTradeAutopsy components can record information such as:
-
Maximum Favorable Excursion (MFE)
-
Maximum Adverse Excursion (MAE)
-
Holding duration
-
Exit reason
-
Early-exit information
-
Trade-behavior statistics
The resulting information can be written to the local common CSV file:
GoldSweep_Autopsy_XAUUSD.csv
This provides an additional layer of transparency for post-trade analysis and strategy diagnostics.

IMPORTANT RISK NOTICE
XAU QuantSweep is an automated trading system for MetaTrader 5.
Trading financial markets involves substantial risk, and no trading system can guarantee profits or eliminate losses.
Past performance and backtest results are not guarantees of future performance.
Backtests are simulations and may differ from live trading because of spread, slippage, liquidity, latency, execution conditions, symbol specifications, and broker-specific behavior.
Before using the EA on a live account, verify the broker's symbol specifications, spread, execution conditions, margin requirements, and trading environment on a demo account.
Prop-firm rules vary between providers. Always verify the current rules of the specific firm and confirm that your configuration complies with those rules before live deployment.
