EA No.32 — User Guide Summary (V1.06)
An automated Expert Advisor for Gold (XAUUSD) that trades the SELL side only on the H1 chart. It runs 3 engines (H2, H4, H8 timeframes) that detect slow bearish momentum (MACD zero-cross down, roughly 190–220 hours), then sells with an ATR-based stop-loss, a trailing stop and a maximum holding time.
No martingale, no grid, no averaging. Each engine holds at most one position and has its own Magic Number (320001–320003).
1. Requirements1. HEDGING account (on a netting account only engine E1 runs)
2. Symbol GOLD / XAUUSD only — other symbols are not supported
3. H1 chart with Algo Trading enabled
4. Recommended balance $1,000+ (tested at 1:500 leverage). With $500 or less the 0.01 minimum lot means few trades and higher-than-set risk per trade
5. A VPS is recommended for continuous operation
2. Getting started1. Install the EA and open a GOLD/XAUUSD chart on H1.
2. Attach the EA with default inputs and tick "Allow Algo Trading".
3. Check that the dashboard appears and the green button reads "Trading: ON".
4. Run on a demo account for at least 3 months before going live.
5. Do not tweak inputs to chase results; re-test before any change.
3. Built-in risk controls• Total open-risk cap of 4% of equity
• Weekly loss stop: no new trades for the week if equity falls 8% from the week start
• Per-engine drawdown guard: an engine that breaches its limit is paused for 30 days
• Spread filter: no entry when spread exceeds 80 points; a blocked signal is retried for up to 60 minutes (spreads are often wide around the server-time midnight rollover)
• Position size is calculated from risk per trade (default 1.25% per engine)
4. Limitations and risks• SELL only — a strong, sustained gold rally can cause several consecutive losses.
• All results are backtests; there is no live track record yet. Parameters were selected from a large number of historical configurations, so results may be overstated.
• The 3 engines are correlated (they exploit the same phenomenon); they are not three independent strategies.
• Backtest equity drawdown was 16–19.7%, close to a 20% ceiling — future drawdown may exceed it.
• Results depend on the broker, spread and swap (tested on XM).
• Past performance does not guarantee future results. Trading gold carries a high risk of loss, including the loss of your entire capital. Only risk money you can afford to lose.
