🏆 HIRING: Quantitative Gold (XAU/USD) Trading Strategy Developer
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📌 PROJECT OVERVIEW
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
I am building a professional trading signal platform (xtraderlab.com) and need an experienced quant trader or algo developer to design, code, and backtest a high-performance intraday Gold (XAU/USD) trading strategy.
The strategy will be integrated into an existing platform and used to generate live signals for clients. This is a serious project with potential for long-term collaboration.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🎯 WHAT THE STRATEGY MUST ACHIEVE
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
✅ Asset: XAU/USD (Gold Spot)
✅ Daily profit target: $20–$50 price movement capture per trade
✅ Maximum drawdown: ≤ 1.9% per trade (hard risk limit)
✅ Timeframe: M5 or M15 (intraday scalp/momentum)
✅ Leverage: 1:100
✅ Signals per day: 2–5 high-quality setups
✅ Sessions: London open and/or New York open preferred
✅ Win rate target: minimum 55% at first take profit level
✅ Risk-to-Reward: minimum 1:3 on every signal
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📦 DELIVERABLES REQUIRED
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
1. Complete strategy logic document
— Entry rules (exact conditions, not vague descriptions)
— Exit rules (TP1, TP2, trailing stop or fixed)
— Stop loss placement logic (structure-based or ATR-based)
— Session and time filters
— Any indicator settings used
2. Backtested results (minimum 6 months of M5 data)
— Total signals generated
— Win rate at TP1 and TP2
— Maximum drawdown %
— Average R:R achieved
— Equity curve (chart or screenshot)
— Results must include LOSING trades — not cherry-picked
3. Python or MQL5 code (your choice of language)
— Clean, commented code
— Compatible with MT4/MT5 or Python-based platform
— Signal output as JSON or print format
4. Brief explanation video or written walkthrough
— Walk me through 3–5 example trades from the backtest
— Explain why each entry was taken
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🔍 WHAT I AM LOOKING FOR IN A CANDIDATE
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
— Proven experience with XAU/USD specifically (not just generic forex)
— Strong understanding of session-based volatility (London, NY open)
— Familiarity with SMC, ORB, price action, or momentum strategies
— Ability to code in Python (pandas, numpy) or MQL5
— Can show VERIFIED backtest results — not just screenshots
— Honest about limitations — I am not looking for a 100% win rate system
— Available for a short Q&A call before project start
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⛔ WHAT I DO NOT WANT
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
✗ Martingale or grid strategies (high risk — not suitable)
✗ Strategies that only work in one market direction (buy-only)
✗ Generic indicator crossover systems with no real edge
✗ Backtests on cherry-picked time periods or single assets
✗ Overfitted strategies that look perfect but fail live
✗ Copy-paste strategies sold to multiple buyers simultaneously
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
💰 BUDGET & TIMELINE
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Budget : Open to proposals — quality matters more than price
Timeline : 7–14 days for initial delivery
Payment : Milestone-based (50% upfront, 50% on delivery)
Bonus : Additional payment for live performance above benchmark
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📝 HOW TO APPLY
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Please include in your proposal:
1. Your experience specifically with XAU/USD strategy development
2. One example of a strategy you have built previously
(backtest results or live track record preferred)
3. Which approach you would use for this project and why
4. Your proposed timeline and price
5. Any questions you have about the requirements
Generic proposals without XAU/USD experience will not be considered.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
This is a legitimate, funded project. The right developer will have
an opportunity for ongoing work as the platform grows.
Looking forward to working with someone who truly understands Gold.
