Ghost Scalper is an automated expert advisor for MetaTrader 5 that is built for gold, traded as XAUUSD. It combines four separate entry strategies that look for breakout and momentum conditions, and it opens a trade only when its own rules are satisfied. Long stretches with no new orders are therefore normal.
The strategies are named Ghost A, B, C and D. Each one works on its own and can be enabled or disabled individually. Buy and sell directions can be switched separately, and each strategy has its own position sizing. The exact entry calculations are not published by the vendor, so this page cannot describe the signal logic in detail. Because several strategies may hold positions at the same time, the combined exposure on the account can be larger than any single setting suggests.
In STANDARD mode the EA uses internally tuned stop loss, take profit and trailing stop values. CUSTOM mode lets you set stop loss, take profit, trailing start, trailing distance and trailing step separately for buys and sells. The EA also manages pending orders and protective levels automatically, and it has a virtual fallback in case a broker rejects a stop loss modification.
The EA measures the slippage your broker actually delivers and uses it when adjusting trailing, stop loss and take profit behaviour. Each strategy has three levels: SOFT (25%), MEDIUM (50%, the default) and HARD (100%). This reduces the effect of slippage but cannot remove it, and real broker slippage cannot be reproduced reliably in the Strategy Tester.
The EA is designed for XAUUSD only, with H1 as the recommended chart. Symbol names vary between brokers, so check yours before attaching it. Spread, liquidity and execution quality on gold can differ a lot between accounts.
The table lists values reported by the vendor. Inputs and defaults can change over time, so confirm them in the input window of the file you receive, including the units used for stop and take profit distances.
| Setting | Reported default or range |
|---|---|
| Trailing mode | STANDARD (default) or CUSTOM |
| CUSTOM stop loss / take profit | 800 / 2500 |
| CUSTOM trailing start / distance / step | 250 / 150 / 80 |
| Slippage level | SOFT, MEDIUM (default), HARD |
| Position sizing | Fixed lot, risk percent or risk per balance, per strategy |
| Prop firm protection | OFF by default |
| Daily / overall drawdown limit | 4% / 6% |
| Risk per new trade / total open and pending risk | 0.5% / 2% |
| Limit action | BLOCK ONLY or CLOSE POSITION |
| Dashboard | BIG, SMALL or OFF |
An optional filter pauses trading around major USD events such as FOMC, CPI, NFP and PCE, with a default window of 30 minutes either side. Extra event filters and a news week risk mode are included. Pending orders are blocked or removed from Friday 22:00 to Monday 00:00 broker server time, while open positions continue to be managed.
When switched on, the module watches account equity and risk, including positions from other EAs or manual trades. At a limit it blocks new entries and removes pending orders, and it can optionally try to close open positions from this EA. Keep in mind that it is a safeguard, not a promise of rule compliance.
Trading gold with leverage can lose money quickly, and several strategies running together add to that. Choose lot sizes and risk values you can afford, and test on a demo account before using real funds.
Trading carries risk. Backtests and past live results do not predict future performance, and no setting can prevent losses, slippage or rule breaches in every situation.

No. This listing is the MetaTrader 5 edition and ships as an .ex5 file, which MT4 cannot load. You need an MT5 terminal and an account that allows expert advisors.
The vendor recommends XAUUSD on the H1 chart. Brokers name gold differently (for example with a suffix), so confirm the exact symbol in your Market Watch and attach the EA to that chart.
It only enters when its internal conditions are met, so quiet periods are expected. The news filter and the Friday to Monday pending-order block can also reduce activity. Check the Experts and Journal tabs if you suspect a configuration problem.
The EA has an optional protection system with daily and overall drawdown limits and per-trade risk caps. It is off by default and cannot guarantee that every rule of a given firm is met, so read your firm's rules and test on a demo account first.
The filter needs external news data. Add the URL given in the product documentation under Tools, Options, Expert Advisors, Allow WebRequest in MT5, then restart the EA. Check the documentation for the exact address.
It can be attached to any MT5 broker that offers gold, but spreads, slippage, execution speed and stop-level rules differ between brokers and affect results. Test on a demo account with your own broker before going live.
