XAUUSD Expert Advisor designed for disciplined prop firm trading and controlled risk management.
Funded Gold Engine is a fully automated MetaTrader 5 EA developed specifically for Gold / XAUUSD.
The system is built around a simple principle:
Protect the account first. Trade selectively. Keep risk structured.
It is especially suitable for traders using prop firm evaluation or funded accounts, while it can also be used on standard personal trading accounts.
The EA does not use Martingale or Grid.

Prop Firm Focus
Prop firm accounts normally have strict daily loss and maximum drawdown limits.
Funded Gold Engine includes dedicated controls to help manage these restrictions:
- Daily loss cutoff
- Static maximum loss protection
- Risk-based Stop Loss
- Margin check before entry
- Limited trade duration
- Spread filtering
- Optional news protection
- Prevention of uncontrolled position stacking
The objective is not maximum trade frequency.
The objective is controlled and systematic Gold trading.
Important: Prop firm rules differ between companies and account types. Users are responsible for configuring the EA according to their own prop firm's rules.
Funded Gold Engine is not affiliated with or endorsed by any prop firm.
Account Presets
Built-in presets include:
- $1,000
- $5,000
- $6,000
- $15,000
- $25,000
- $50,000
- $100,000
- $200,000
- Manual configuration
Preset mode automatically applies the corresponding reference balance and risk settings.
Accounts below $899 automatically target 0.01 lot, subject to the broker's minimum allowed volume.
Trading Strategy
Funded Gold Engine uses an H1 session-based reversal methodology.
The EA analyzes the previous H1 candle during predefined trading windows.
When the previous candle meets the required movement threshold:
- Strong bullish movement may trigger a SELL reversal
- Strong bearish movement may trigger a BUY reversal
A dedicated Monday BUY setup is also included.
Default Trading Windows
Jakarta time:
- Monday 08:00
- 12:00
- 17:00
- 20:00
The 14:00 session is included but disabled by default.
Trading sessions and filters are configurable.
Risk Management
Stop Loss
Every trade can use a Stop Loss calculated from a fixed reference balance.
Default risk:
2.5% of the selected reference balance per trade
The risk percentage can be customized.
Take Profit
An optional fixed-balance Take Profit model is included.
Default target:
3.0% of the selected reference balance
Daily Loss Protection
The default daily cutoff is approximately:
4.5% of the selected preset balance
Examples:
- $1K → $45
- $5K → $225
- $6K → $270
- $15K → $675
- $50K → $2,250
- $100K → $4,500
When the daily cutoff is reached, the EA stops opening additional trades for that day.
Static Maximum Loss Protection
The EA also monitors the account against a static maximum-loss reference.
If the configured protection level is reached, the EA can:
- Close EA positions
- Stop additional entries
- Activate protection mode
This adds another risk-control layer beyond individual Stop Losses.
No Martingale / No Grid
Funded Gold Engine does not rely on:
- Martingale lot multiplication
- Grid averaging
- Unlimited recovery trades
- Progressive doubling after losses
By default, the EA also prevents new EA entries while another Funded Gold Engine position is still active.
Time-Based Exit Protection
Trades are not designed to remain open indefinitely.
Default maximum holding periods:
- Monday 08:00 → 60 minutes
- 12:00 → 60 minutes
- 17:00 → 120 minutes
- 20:00 → 60 minutes
Positions can be automatically closed after the configured session duration.
Margin Protection
Before sending an order, the EA calculates the estimated margin requirement.
If available free margin is insufficient, the trade is skipped instead of sending an order that the broker cannot execute.
This improves compatibility with different:
- Leverage levels
- Gold contract sizes
- Minimum lot sizes
- Broker margin requirements
Spread Filter
The EA includes a configurable maximum spread filter.
If the XAUUSD spread exceeds the selected limit, no new trade is opened.
News and Pause Controls
Funded Gold Engine includes optional manual news-pause windows.
Users can define specific periods during which new entries should be disabled.
The EA can also optionally close open EA positions when a defined news window begins.
A recurring daily pause window is also available.
Dashboard and Logging
The built-in dashboard can display:
- Account preset
- Effective lot size
- Spread
- Balance
- Equity
- Daily P/L
- Daily cutoff
- Maximum loss status
- News pause status
- Risk configuration
CSV activity logging is also available for additional transparency.
