Get one message the moment it launches, with its price.
Aetheris Gold ZigZag is an expert advisor for MetaTrader 5 that focuses on a single market: gold quoted as XAUUSD. It runs on the M15 chart, reads market structure through ZigZag pivots and places pending stop orders beyond recent highs and lows, so a trade is only opened if price actually breaks out.
The expert keeps track of the most recent swing highs and lows on M15. When those pivot boundaries form a valid structure and its volatility checks are satisfied, it places pending stop orders with the stop loss and take profit already defined. When conditions are not met, it simply waits, so you should expect quiet periods with no new orders.
Open positions are managed with a staged trailing approach that moves protection toward breakeven as the trade develops. The decision rules sit inside the compiled expert, so there is no set file to load and no indicator to attach separately.
An optional economic news filter can pause trading around high-impact US releases. According to the product information, it cancels pending orders during the blackout window, protects open positions, and can restore breakout levels that were not touched. Separate switches exist for events such as Non-Farm Payrolls, FOMC rate decisions and CPI.
Confirm your broker's symbol name, typical gold spread, minimum lot size and leverage before using the expert on a live account.
The inputs are short and mainly cover position sizing, display and the news filter. The table lists the main ones; check the inputs tab in your terminal for the complete list, including further news switches and their exact defaults.
| Input | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Risk_Per_Trade | Percentage of equity risked per trade. The default is 1.0 and the permitted range is small, so keep it modest. |
| Use_Fixed_Lot | Switches from percentage risk to a fixed volume. |
| Fixed_Lot | Lot size used when fixed volume is on; the default is 0.01. |
| Magic_Number | Identifier that marks this expert's orders and positions. |
| Show_Information_Panel | Shows the on-chart panel with account, spread and slippage data. |
| Apply_Chart_Style | Applies the expert's chart colour theme. |
| Enable_News_Protection | Master switch for the news blackout filter. |
| Block_NFP_Employment, Block_FOMC_RateDecision, Block_CPI | Choose which event types pause trading. |
Percentage-based sizing means a larger risk setting increases both position size and the size of possible losses. Start with fixed minimum lots or a low percentage, and watch how the expert behaves in your broker's conditions. Breakout systems can suffer from widening spreads, slippage and false breaks, especially around news.
Trading carries risk, including the loss of your deposit. Past results, whether from testing or live accounts, do not predict future ones. Test on a demo account first.
For continuous operation, a VPS or other stable connection is advisable so pending orders and trade management are not interrupted.

Attach it to a gold chart on the M15 timeframe. The expert is designed around that pairing, so running it on other timeframes is not what it was built for. The expert is meant to detect different broker naming for gold, but confirm on a demo account that it recognises your broker's symbol.
No. This product is an MT5 expert advisor and will not load in MetaTrader 4. You need a MetaTrader 5 account that offers a gold symbol.
Because it trades breakouts with pending orders, spread and execution speed matter. Accounts with low floating spreads, such as ECN, raw or zero-spread types, are generally the better fit than accounts with wide fixed markups. Compare your broker's gold spread and minimum lot before going live.
The main choices are the risk mode (percentage risk or fixed lot), the lot size or risk percentage, and the news filter switches. Other inputs cover the information panel, chart styling and magic number. Review the full inputs tab after attaching it, and test your chosen values on a demo account first.
Copy the expert file into the Experts folder via File, Open Data Folder, MQL5, Experts in MetaTrader 5. Refresh the Navigator or restart the terminal, drag the expert onto a gold M15 chart, and make sure algorithmic trading is switched on in the toolbar and in the expert's properties.
Yes. All automated trading carries risk, and results from testing or from other users do not predict future results. Use a demo account first and only risk money you can afford to lose.
