Gold Rush Algo is an expert advisor for MetaTrader 4 that trades gold against the US dollar (XAUUSD). It follows the prevailing trend, stays out of the market when volatility is elevated, and uses a recovery routine to manage positions that move the wrong way.
Gold can move sharply around news releases and economic data, and those spikes are hard for any automated system to handle. This EA is built around that problem. It looks for trend direction before opening a position, and it holds back when conditions are judged to be too volatile. The aim of the filter is to reduce exposure at the most unstable moments, not to remove risk.
If a trade is opened and the market then moves against it, the EA applies a recovery method rather than simply closing at a fixed stop. Recovery approaches of this kind can involve additional positions or larger exposure while a trade is under water. Before using it with real money, check in the inputs and on a demo account how many positions can be open at once, how lot sizes change, and what the maximum drawdown looked like in your own tests.
Spreads, commissions, swap and execution speed on gold vary a lot between brokers, and they affect an automated system noticeably. Test on the account type you plan to use.
The exact input names and default values depend on the build you receive, so review the Inputs tab after attaching the EA. The table below lists the areas worth checking rather than specific values.
| Area | What to check |
|---|---|
| Lot size or risk | Whether size is fixed or based on balance, and how it behaves during recovery |
| Volatility filter | How the EA decides to stand aside and whether the threshold can be changed |
| Recovery settings | Maximum number of positions, step distance and any multiplier |
| Trading hours | Any session limits, adjusted for your broker's server time |
| Magic number | Use a unique value if you run other EAs on the same account |
The EA works on its own inside your terminal, but only while the terminal is open and connected. A VPS keeps it online without interruption. If you run it on a personal computer, a restart, update or network drop will stop it managing open trades, so a computer is best used for demo testing.
Trading carries risk, and leveraged gold trading can lead to losses that exceed your expectations. Past results, including backtests, do not predict future ones. Recovery methods can increase exposure when the market keeps moving against a position. Test on a demo account first and only trade money you can afford to lose.

No. This listing is for MetaTrader 4 only. An MT4 expert advisor cannot be loaded in MT5, so make sure your broker account runs on MT4 before buying.
It is designed for gold, quoted as XAUUSD. Some brokers add a suffix or use a different name such as GOLD, so check that your broker's gold symbol is available in Market Watch and that the EA recognises it. Confirm the recommended chart period before you start.
It is not strictly required, but the EA only manages trades while the terminal is running. If your computer sleeps, restarts for updates or loses its connection, open trades will not be managed. A VPS is the more reliable option for live use, while a home computer is better kept for demo testing.
Copy the expert advisor file into the MQL4/Experts folder through File, Open Data Folder in MT4. Restart the terminal or refresh the Navigator, drag the EA onto a gold chart, and enable Allow Algo Trading in the properties and on the toolbar.
The minimum balance and the correct lot settings depend on the broker, leverage and the EA's inputs. Check the available settings and test on a demo account first, then choose a size you can sustain if several trades run against you.
No. Trading gold with leverage carries a high level of risk, and results from testing or from other users' accounts do not predict future performance.
