TrendRushEA – Automated Expert Advisor for XAUUSD with Optional USD Strength Filter

Short Description (EN):
TrendRushEA is a fully automated MetaTrader 5 Expert Advisor designed specifically for trading Gold (XAUUSD) in strong bullish trends. It combines long-term trend confirmation with an optional USD strength filter based on EURUSD. The EA features dynamic risk management (1%–2% of account size), ATR-based SL/TP calculation, and a weekend-close function for trade protection.

Detailed Description (EN):

TrendRushEA is built for traders seeking to capture sustainable upward momentum in the gold market. It is inspired by the proven “Friday Gold Rush” strategy, which identifies a recurring pattern of strong bullish moves in Gold near the end of the trading week—often driven by geopolitical news, USD volatility, or institutional repositioning. The EA combines this edge with smart filters to maximize trade accuracy and protect capital:

📈 D1 Trend Filter (195-Period MA)

The EA only takes long trades when the XAUUSD daily close is above the 195-period moving average, confirming a strong, long-term uptrend—a core requirement of the Friday Gold Rush approach.

🔄 USD Strength Correlation Filter (Optional)

A 195-period moving average is calculated on the 12-minute EURUSD chart.
– If EURUSD falls below this MA, it signals short-term USD strength, which often precedes upward moves in Gold.
– This signal acts as a precise timing tool for entries, but the filter can be enabled or disabled based on user preference.
Note: Disabling the filter increases trading frequency, while enabling it prioritizes signal quality.

🛡️ ATR-Based Stop-Loss / Take-Profit

• Stop-Loss: Entry − (ATR × SL Multiplier)

• Take-Profit: Entry + (ATR × TP Multiplier)

The SL/TP logic is based on market volatility, ensuring:
✅ adaptive protection in high-volatility conditions
✅ consistent risk-reward ratios
✅ fewer premature stop-outs
This approach aligns with the high momentum characteristics of Gold and improves trade reliability.

⚖️ Dynamic Risk Management

• Default risk: 1% of account balance per trade

• Configurable up to 2%

• Position size is auto-calculated based on SL distance and adjusted to valid volume steps.
  This ensures proper capital allocation and helps prevent overexposure, regardless of market conditions.

⏱️ Weekend-Close Protection

To avoid weekend gaps or unexpected geopolitical news:

• All open trades are closed automatically on Friday at 22:00

TrendRushEA blends long-term trend-following with intelligent USD-based entry filtering and disciplined risk control. By integrating the Friday Gold Rush pattern with optional EURUSD confirmation, it delivers a flexible, high-probability system designed specifically for Gold traders seeking strategic edge and reliable automation.
