Automated XAUUSD
Gold Trading EA
Trend-following entries inside Premium / Discount zones — never counter-trend, no Martingale, no grid. And unlike other gold EAs, there is nothing to configure — no VPS login, no editing settings in MetaTrader.
Why TheXAUbot
Built to survive, not just to look good in a backtest.
Trend-following only
Enters with the market trend inside Premium/Discount zones. Never counter-trend, never guessing tops and bottoms.
No Martingale, no grid
Risk is fixed per trade. No doubling down, no averaging into losers — the account-killers that blow up most gold bots.
Live results, not backtests
Every trade shown is reported from a real account running the EA, updated live on the dashboard.
Nothing to configure
Risk, stop loss, take profit and trailing are all set on our side. Attach the EA and leave it — nothing to tune in MetaTrader.
Works on any MT5 broker
Auto-detects broker suffixes, cent accounts and currency. Runs on standard and cent accounts alike.
Profit targets & auto-stop
Set daily/weekly/monthly targets and daily loss limits. The bot pauses itself when a target or limit is hit.
How it works
Running in three steps — no MetaTrader tinkering.
Get the EA
Join our Telegram channel and download the EA for MetaTrader 5.
Attach to XAUUSD

Watch it work
Open your dashboard to set your targets and watch live results across all your accounts.
The strategy, in plain terms
TheXAUbot reads the higher-timeframe trend and only trades in that direction. It waits for price to pull back into a Discount zone in an uptrend (to buy) or a Premium zone in a downtrend (to sell).
Stops are placed at real market structure — swing highs and lows — not at a fixed distance. As trades move in profit, stops trail up through an R-ladder to lock in gains. There is no Martingale: a losing trade is closed at its stop, never averaged.
When the trend flips, open trades are managed out and the bot re-aligns with the new direction. Everything — risk %, max positions, profit targets, daily loss limits — is set from your web dashboard and applies across every account you run.
Why our EA can't be backtested — and why that's a good thing
The EA is the hand. Our server is the brain.
Analyses the market in real time and decides exactly when to open and close.
Receives the command and executes the trade on your account. It doesn't decide anything on its own.
Most gold EAs keep all their logic inside the EA file, so anyone can drop them into the MT5 Strategy Tester and generate a beautiful backtest. That's exactly where results get inflated — a curve tuned with the benefit of hindsight, on perfect historical data, with no slippage and no real execution.
TheXAUbot works differently. The EA doesn't decide anything — our server does all the analysis and sends the open/close commands to it live. The MT5 Strategy Tester runs an EA alone, with no internet connection, so there's no brain sending commands. That's why it can't be backtested.
So we don't have a backtest to show you. We have something better: live results from real accounts — the only performance that actually counts.
What is a trading EA?
And why an automated one beats trading gold by hand.
An Expert Advisor (EA) is a trading robot
An EA is a program that runs inside MetaTrader 5 and trades for you — reading the chart, opening and closing positions, and managing stops, all by a fixed set of rules. Once it's attached to a chart, it works around the clock without you watching the screen.
TheXAUbot is an EA built for one instrument only: XAUUSD (gold). Specialising in a single market means every rule is tuned for how gold actually moves, instead of being a generic bot stretched across dozens of pairs.
Why automated beats manual
- No emotion. The bot doesn't revenge-trade, move stops out of fear, or oversize after a win. It follows the same plan every time.
- No missed entries. It watches the market 24/5 and acts the moment conditions line up — even while you sleep.
- Consistent risk. Every trade is sized to your rules. No "just this once" oversizing that wipes accounts.
- Runs on all your accounts. One dashboard controls risk and targets across every account at once.
Limits and targets that enforce themselves
No VPS login. No editing EA inputs in MetaTrader. Set the rules once in your dashboard — they apply to every account.
With most gold EAs, changing a single setting means remoting into your VPS, opening MetaTrader, finding the chart, and editing EA inputs by hand. TheXAUbot does none of that.
Your risk rules live in your web dashboard. Set them once and the bot enforces them on its own — across all your accounts.
Max loss per day / week / month
Set loss limits by period. The bot stops opening trades when a limit is hit — no blown accounts.
Profit target per day / week / month
Set profit goals by period. The bot banks and pauses when the target is reached.
Real stop loss on every trade
Every position is opened with its stop and target already attached — never a naked order.
Many accounts, one place
Watch every account you run from a single dashboard, on desktop or phone.
TheXAUbot vs other gold EAs
The difference is control, safety, and transparency.

Every checkmark above is a control you use from your browser — nothing here needs a MetaTrader login.
What we deliberately don't do
Most gold bots look great — until the strategy that inflates the results blows the account.
- Double down after every loss to "recover"
- Beautiful equity curve — until one trend wipes it out
- Hidden drawdown that only shows up on a bad week
- No real stop loss — the account is the stop loss
- Fixed risk per trade — losses are capped and known
- Real stop loss at market structure on every position
- Trend-following: trades with the move, not against it
- Drawdown you can actually see, on live accounts

Frequently asked
What is TheXAUbot?
An automated XAUUSD gold trading EA for MetaTrader 5. It enters with the trend inside Premium/Discount zones — never counter-trend and never with Martingale.
Does it use Martingale or grid?
No. Risk is fixed per trade. There is no doubling down and no averaging into losing positions — the methods that quietly blow up most gold bots.
Where can I see the real results?
Live statistics are shown on this site — combining results from every active account, updated in real time. Nothing is cherry-picked or backtested.
Can I backtest it in the MT5 Strategy Tester?
No — and that's by design. The EA doesn't decide trades on its own: our server does all the analysis and sends open/close commands to the EA live. The Strategy Tester runs an EA alone with no internet, so there's no brain sending commands. Instead of a backtest that can be tuned with hindsight, we show live results from real accounts — the only performance that counts.
How much money do I need to start?
The EA sizes positions to your balance, so it works on small and large accounts alike, including cent accounts. Your broker's minimum deposit is the only floor. Start small to get comfortable, then scale up.
Which brokers does it work on?
Any MetaTrader 5 broker. It auto-detects broker symbol suffixes, cent accounts and account currency, so you don't have to configure anything for your broker.
Do I need to keep my computer on?
The EA runs inside MetaTrader 5, so MT5 needs to stay running — on your PC or a VPS. Many users run it on a cheap VPS so it trades 24/5 without their computer on.
Do I need to configure MetaTrader?
No. Risk, max orders, targets and trailing are all set on our side. Just attach the EA to an XAUUSD chart and leave it running.
Is my money safe? Do you touch my funds?
Your funds stay in your own broker account. The EA only places trades through MetaTrader — it never has access to deposits or withdrawals. You keep full control of your account at all times.
How much does it cost?
Demo accounts are free with no time limit. A live account gets a 5-day trial, then needs airtime: $59 for 30 days, $139 for 90, $259 for 180, $459 for a year. One licence covers one MT5 account.
How do I calculate the right lot size for XAUUSD?
Lot = risk in money ÷ (stop distance in price × the value of one lot per 1.00 move). On XAUUSD one lot is 100 ounces, so a 1.00 move is worth $100 per lot: risking $100 with a 5.00 stop gives 100 ÷ (5 × 100) = 0.20 lot. The free calculator above does it for you and rounds down to your broker's lot step, so the rounding never pushes you over the risk you set.
Is the position size calculator free? Do I need an account?
It's free and needs no account, no sign-up and no email. It runs entirely in your browser on this page, and covers XAUUSD, XAGUSD, the major forex pairs, USDJPY and other USD-base pairs, BTCUSD, ETHUSD, US30, NAS100, SPX500 and WTI crude.
Can an EA set the stop loss on trades I opened by hand?
Yes — that's what TXB Trade Assistant above is for. The moment you place a stop loss on one of your manual positions, it copies that price onto your other positions on the same side, so entries taken in a hurry are never left without a stop. It then runs a TP1–TP5 ladder you configure yourself: the R multiple of each level, where the stop moves, and how much of the position to close there.
Free tools
Two things every manual trader needs — no account required.
Position size (lot size) calculator
Pick your instrument, tell it what you can lose, and it tells you the lot — plus three take profits at the R multiples you choose.
—
Drag the red SL line on the chart — the lot size updates as you move it.
Lot sizes are rounded down to your broker's step — rounding up would risk more than you asked for. Contract sizes are the MetaTrader defaults; if your broker differs, the numbers shift with it. Spread, swap and commission are not included.
TXB Trade Assistant — for the trades you open yourself
You take four entries in ten seconds. By the time the fourth is filled, the first one still has no stop. This EA fixes exactly that, and then manages the rest for you.
- Set one stop, the rest follow. The moment you place a stop on any position, it copies that price onto your other positions on the same side.
- It remembers your first stop. That distance becomes 1R for that trade — every step below is measured from it, and it never shifts when the stop moves later.
- Your ladder, your numbers. TP1 to TP5: you set the R multiple, where the stop goes, and how much to bank at each level.
- It never opens a trade. No strategy, no signals — it only looks after positions you opened.
- Nothing is sent back. One licence check, no body, no statistics, no trade history.
