XU Gold ST ATR H1 Strategy is a fully automated MetaTrader 5 strategy designed to capture structured directional movement on XAUUSD using a SuperTrend and ATR-based framework with volatility-adjusted risk management and disciplined exit rules.
The strategy is designed for Gold / XAUUSD on the H1 timeframe. Its goal is to participate in cleaner directional Gold movements while avoiding excessive noise that is common on lower timeframes. Gold is a highly reactive market, often influenced by macroeconomic events, liquidity shifts and changes in risk sentiment. For this reason, the strategy uses a higher timeframe approach and adaptive ATR-based trade management.
No parameter setup is required — the system is delivered with optimized and fine-tuned settings.
Recommended broker: Any MT5 broker with stable XAUUSD execution, low spread, reliable Gold liquidity and consistent server time.

ENTRY LOGIC
SUPER TREND / ATR DIRECTIONAL STRUCTURE + SYSTEMATIC EXECUTION
This EA is built around a SuperTrend and ATR-style trend framework. The main idea is to trade only when Gold shows a stronger directional structure and volatility conditions support a potential continuation move.
The strategy does not try to react to every small price movement. Instead, it focuses on situations where market direction, volatility and trend structure are aligned.
Core logic:
- SuperTrend-based market structure confirmation
- ATR-based volatility evaluation
- Higher-timeframe H1 filtering to reduce lower-timeframe noise
- Systematic execution when the trading condition is confirmed
Main internal parameters:
- SuperTrend / ATR period 1: 48
- Higher ATR period: 20
- SuperTrend / ATR period 2: 10
- Stop Loss coefficient: 4.2
- Trailing Stop coefficient: 0.6
--------------------------------------------
EXIT RULES
- Stop Loss: ATR-based, using coefficient 4.2
- Profit Target: No fixed profit target
- Trailing Stop: ATR-based trailing logic, using coefficient 0.6
- End-of-day exit: forced exit at 22:00
- Friday risk control: forced exit on Friday at 19:00 to reduce weekend gap exposure
--------------------------------------------
VALIDATION
Recommended: validate the build with out-of-sample windows, robustness tests, and a dedicated TRUE OOS segment using high-quality tick data. Gold strategies should also be checked across different volatility regimes, because XAUUSD can change behavior significantly during macroeconomic events and liquidity shocks.
