Hedge Gold is a rule-based expert advisor for MetaTrader 4 that trades gold (XAUUSD). It waits for several conditions to agree before opening a position, attaches a stop loss and take profit, and manages the trade with a trailing stop and daily limits. On hedging accounts it can also use an optional hedge to cap a losing basket.
The EA does not trade every day. If the filters do not line up, it simply stays out of the market. A buy or sell is considered only when all of the following are met:
You can restrict the EA to buy only, sell only or both directions.
Stop loss and take profit can be ATR-based, so they adapt to gold volatility, or set as fixed points. The trailing stop starts once the trade has reached a profit level you choose. Hidden stop loss, take profit and trailing modes are available, and a force-close option shuts all of the EA's positions when total floating profit reaches your target.
When Aggressive Mode is on, the EA may hold several trades in the same direction up to your maximum. If that basket reaches a floating loss, it can open one opposite position of equal size to freeze the loss. The trigger scales with basket size. This works on hedging accounts only. Aggressive Mode raises both potential gains and drawdown, so use it with care.
The EA is built for XAUUSD only. The setup guidance points to M5 as the working timeframe, but confirm this and run your own tests before going live. A RAW or ECN account with low spread is recommended, along with leverage of 1:100 or higher and a VPS if you want it running through the whole trading week.
Exact input names and defaults can differ, so open the inputs tab and read each one before you start. The main groups are:
| Group | What it controls |
|---|---|
| Lot size | Fixed lot, or a percentage of balance based on the real stop distance |
| Stop and target | ATR-based or fixed points, plus trailing and hidden modes |
| Daily limits | Profit target, drawdown limit and maximum trades per day |
| Filters | Spread, session (Asian, London, New York in broker time) and cooldown |
| Aggressive and hedge | Multiple same-direction trades and the Smart Hedge trigger |
| Recovery Mode | Lot increase after losses; off by default and high risk |
A chart panel shows daily profit and loss, open positions, hedge status and the current session.
Trading gold and CFDs carries a high level of risk, and you can lose more than you expect. Past results, including back-tests, do not predict future ones. Test on a demo account first and start with small lot sizes. Recovery Mode and Aggressive Mode can increase drawdown sharply.
Every trade is sent with a broker-side stop loss as a backstop. Check back-test results using real tick data and compare them with your own broker's price feed, since spreads and execution differ between brokers.

No. This download is built for MetaTrader 4 and will not load in MT5. If you use MT5, look for a separate MT5 product instead.
The EA is designed for XAUUSD. The setup guidance points to M5 as the working timeframe, but you should confirm this in the settings and test it on your own broker's data before trading live. Some brokers add a suffix to the symbol name, which is fine as long as it is gold.
The core trend strategy can run on its own, but the optional Smart Hedge feature only works on hedging accounts. It is not used on netting accounts. Check your account type with your broker before you start.
No minimum deposit is given here, so do not rely on a fixed figure. Test on a demo account, check the margin needed for 0.01 lot on your broker's gold contract, and choose a lot size or risk percentage you can afford to lose.
It is off by default. Recovery Mode raises the lot size after consecutive losses, which is a martingale-style approach and carries high risk. Leave it off unless you fully understand how fast the position size can grow.
Extract the download, copy the EX4 file into the MQL4/Experts folder using File > Open Data Folder in MT4, restart or refresh the platform, enable algorithmic trading, and drag the EA onto a XAUUSD chart.
