Pivot Killer is an expert advisor for MetaTrader 5 that trades gold (XAUUSD) on the H1 chart. It watches for volatility pivots and breakout conditions, opens a position when its rules are met, and sizes that position from a percentage risk input.
The EA is aimed at breakout and trend moves in gold. Instead of reacting to every small swing, it measures how volatile the market currently is and looks for moments when price leaves a quiet range with enough momentum to matter. Position size is calculated from your account balance and the distance to the protective stop, so the amount risked on each trade stays close to the percentage you set.
Because the logic depends on volatility, activity is uneven. Expect stretches with few trades and stretches with several. Before running it live, check the product manual to see how the EA handles several open positions and how it exits trades, so that you know what to expect on your chart.
The setup is intentionally short. The main input is the risk percentage, and the rest comes from the default preset. Open the input tab after attaching the EA and compare it with the manual before changing anything.
| Item | What to know |
|---|---|
| Symbol | XAUUSD (gold) |
| Timeframe | H1 |
| Risk per trade | Default 1% of balance; the developer suggests 0.5% to 2% |
| Other inputs | Check the manual and preset files for the exact list |
| Minimum balance | Confirm with the product page and your broker's contract size |
Percentage-based sizing limits the amount risked per trade, but it does not remove losses. Gold can move fast, spreads widen around news, and slippage can make real fills differ from a backtest. Test on a demo account, use a risk level you can live with, and review results regularly.
Trading carries risk, and you can lose some or all of your capital. Past results, including backtests and signal histories, do not predict future ones. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
Run it on a demo account first, and confirm that your broker's gold symbol and trading hours match what you expect.

No. This listing is the MetaTrader 5 expert advisor. It needs an MT5 terminal and an account that offers gold, and it will not load in MT4.
It is designed for XAUUSD on the H1 chart. Some brokers add a suffix or use a different name for gold, such as GOLD, so check the symbol name in your Market Watch and attach the EA to that chart.
The default is 1% of balance per trade, and the developer suggests staying within roughly 0.5% to 2%. Pick a level that matches your own tolerance for drawdown, and test it on a demo account first.
It is meant to work with most brokers, but gold spreads, execution speed and commissions differ a lot. A low-spread ECN or raw account is usually the better fit. Check the minimum balance with your broker and in the product manual.
That depends on the firm's rules on EAs, drawdown limits and news trading. Read your firm's conditions and run the EA on a demo or trial account before committing to a paid challenge.
