Gaus Gold X is a fully automated Expert Advisor for XAUUSD (Gold). It trades breakouts of confirmed H1 swing highs and lows with pending stop orders and manages every position with a fixed stop loss and a trailing stop.
HOW IT WORKS
- Four independent strategies (A, B, C, D) detect confirmed swing levels on the H1 chart. Each strategy has its own swing size, entry distance, stop loss, take profit and trailing logic.
- Entries are placed as Buy Stop / Sell Stop orders only.
- Every trade has a fixed stop loss and take profit from the moment it opens. A trailing stop follows the price once the trade moves into profit.
- One position per strategy and direction.
- No martingale, no grid, no averaging, no recovery logic.
- Typical holding time is a few minutes.
FEATURES
- On-chart control panel: switch each strategy on/off, pause trading, close profitable positions, close all.
- News filter based on the built-in MT5 economic calendar (FOMC, CPI, NFP, PCE, PPI, GDP, Retail Sales, ISM). Pending orders are removed before and after the event. No WebRequest or DLL is needed. The economic calendar is not available in the Strategy Tester, so the news filter works on live and demo accounts only.
- Time filter for your own blocked trading windows.
- Money management: fixed lot, lot per balance (automatic compounding) or risk % per trade, with a maximum lot limit.
- Daily profit target and daily profit lock.
- Works with 2-digit and 3-digit gold quotes.
REQUIREMENTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
- Symbol: XAUUSD / GOLD.
- Chart timeframe: any (M5 recommended). The EA reads H1 data internally.
- Account type: hedging.
- A low spread (raw / ECN) account is recommended. Trades are short, so execution quality matters.
- Server time: designed for brokers on GMT+2 / GMT+3 (New York close). For other server times, use the "Server time shift" input (example: broker on GMT+0 -> 2).
- Minimum deposit: 300 USD with the default settings (0.01 lot per 300 USD).
- A VPS is recommended for continuous operation.

HOW TO START
1. Attach the EA to one XAUUSD chart (any timeframe, M5 recommended).
2. Allow algorithmic trading.
3. Keep the default settings or adjust the lot settings to your balance.
4. Use one chart per account. Strategies A-D run inside the same EA.
RISK WARNING
Trading gold with leverage carries a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors. Test the EA on a demo account before using it on a live account and only trade with money you can afford to lose.
