Apex Smash is an expert advisor for MetaTrader 5 that trades gold (XAUUSD) by watching for breakouts of support and resistance levels. It reads price action on the chart instead of relying on a stack of indicators, and it is built to run on the H1 timeframe.
The EA looks for areas where price has repeatedly stalled or reversed, treating them as support and resistance. When price breaks through one of these areas, it can open a position in the direction of the move. Each trade is designed to carry its own exit rules, so a position is not meant to stay open indefinitely while waiting for a reversal.
The store tags for this product include grid, while the developer describes the approach as not stacking many orders at multiple levels. Because descriptions can differ, run the EA in the strategy tester and on a demo account and watch how many positions it holds at the same time. That tells you the real exposure before you commit money.
Apex Smash is designed for XAUUSD on the H1 chart. Using it on other symbols or timeframes is outside its intended design, so any such test should be treated as an experiment. Gold symbols are named differently between brokers, for example with a suffix, so confirm the exact symbol in your Market Watch.
The developer supplies recommended settings and a user guide, so check the product page or the seller's instructions for the exact values after purchase. The table below lists only what is generally known.
| Item | Guidance |
|---|---|
| Symbol | XAUUSD |
| Timeframe | H1 |
| Suggested capital | Around 1,000 USD, check against your broker's contract size |
| Lot size and risk per trade | Check the supplied settings, and adjust to your own risk limits |
Before changing any input, note the default value so you can return to it. Make one change at a time in the tester so you can see its effect.
Gold can gap and widen spreads during news and at session changes, which may affect breakout entries, stop placement and slippage. Results depend on your broker's spreads, execution and server time. Use a regulated broker with reliable gold pricing and test thoroughly before going live.
Trading carries risk, and you can lose more than you expect. Backtests and past results do not predict future ones. Start on a demo account and only trade with money you can afford to lose.
If the EA does not trade, check the Experts and Journal tabs for messages, confirm that the symbol is tradable, and make sure your account allows automated trading.

No. It is an MT5 expert advisor, so it needs MetaTrader 5. An MT4 terminal will not load it.
It is designed for XAUUSD on the H1 chart. Some brokers add a suffix or use a different gold symbol name, such as XAUUSD.m, so check what your broker offers and test before going live.
The developer suggests around 1,000 USD as a starting capital. This is a guideline, not a rule. The right amount depends on your broker's contract size, leverage and the lot size you choose, so check these before trading.
The store tags mention grid, while the developer describes the approach as breakout trading without raising lot size after losses. Run it in the strategy tester and on a demo account and watch how many positions it opens at once, so you know the exposure for yourself.
Copy the EX5 file into the Experts folder via File, Open Data Folder, MQL5, Experts in MT5. Restart the terminal or refresh the Navigator, then drag the EA onto an XAUUSD H1 chart and enable Algo Trading.
No one can promise that. Trading carries risk, and past or tested results do not predict future ones. Test on a demo account first and only risk money you can afford to lose.
