Gold Quantum Matrix

1. Entry Logic (4-Confluence) The system will open an order only when the chart signals meet all 4 of these conditions:

• Break of Structure (BOS): Utilizes a ZigZag algorithm to identify the main trend and structural breaks (Higher High / Lower Low).

• Order Block (ICT Style): Scans for a base candle (the origin of a move) that remains untested by price (Unmitigated), which must be followed by strong price momentum (Imbalance).

• Fair Value Gap (FVG): Confirms the signal by ensuring the price structure has left an FVG in the direction of the trend.

• Liquidity Sweep (LQ): Scans for liquidity pools (Equal Highs/Lows) at both shallow and deep levels (2-Layer). The price must sweep through this liquidity zone and pull back to close on the opposite side to be considered a valid reversal signal.

2. Order Placement Strategy (Grid Limits)

• Once a valid entry point is identified, the EA does not execute Market orders. Instead, it places pending orders (Buy Limit or Sell Limit) in a Grid formation.

• The Grid is divided into 2 main zones: the primary capture zone within the Order Block, and a backup zone (Sweep Hunt Layer) placed further out to catch deeper liquidity sweeps.

3. Risk & Safety Management

• DD-Aware Lot Scaling: Features an automatic risk reduction system when the portfolio goes into drawdown (DD). For example, if DD reaches 10%, 18%, or 22%, the system scales down the lot size to 75%, 50%, and 25% of the original size, respectively.

• Max Drawdown Cut: If the DD hits a critical safety threshold (defaulted at 35%), the system will immediately close all active orders and delete all pending orders to protect the account balance.

• Stealth Mode: Can hide the Take Profit (TP) target from the broker by utilizing virtual target lines calculated internally on the chart.

4. Time & News Filters (Smart Guards)

• NFP Guard (4-Tier): Protects against Non-Farm Payrolls volatility by pulling data from a live economic calendar (API), a pre-embedded database (2025-2027), a CSV file, or by forcing a trading pause on the first Friday of the month.

• FOMC Guard (2-Tier): Blocks trading during Fed interest rate announcements based on an economic calendar and a pre-embedded FOMC meeting schedule within the EA.

• Currency Guard: Restricts the EA to operate only on 21 supported currency pairs, including Cent accounts and Crypto-backed pairs (e.g., USDT/UST), to prevent accidental trading on unsupported assets.

• Spread & Session Filter: Includes a function to block trading during high spread periods (such as daily rollover) and allows the user to restrict trading to specific, predefined time sessions.
