XAU Sentinel Sniper is an automated trading tool for MetaTrader 5 that trades gold against the US dollar. It reads price structure on the chart, checks that several conditions line up, and only then opens a position, with a set of protective features around it.
The EA is built from ten separate entry modules based on smart-money concepts. They cover liquidity sweeps, order block retests, market structure shifts, changes of character, breaks of structure, fair value gaps, inducement sweeps, breaker blocks, rejection wicks and volume imbalance surges. Each module can be turned on or off, so you can test them one at a time in the Strategy Tester and see which ones you want to keep.
A signal is not enough by itself. The EA also applies a trend filter based on a 200-period EMA from a higher timeframe, plus a volume check, with the aim of reducing entries against the dominant direction. Several structural conditions need to agree before an order is sent.
The EA includes a daily-range box filter that is switched off by default. When enabled, it only allows buys above the box and sells below it, and blocks entries while price is inside the range. The session window uses the broker's GMT offset, which the EA detects automatically.
If an open trade goes into drawdown beyond a threshold you set, the EA can add a second position and treat both as one basket with a shared take-profit. The size of the added position follows an adjustable multiplier, and a maximum loss per cycle limits how far a basket can run. Recovery adds exposure, so understand these inputs before going live.
Exact input names and defaults can differ by build, so open the Inputs tab after attaching the EA and read each field before trading. The main groups are listed below.
| Group | What to check |
|---|---|
| Strategy modules | Which of the ten entry modules are enabled |
| Trend and volume filters | EMA trend filter and volume confirmation options |
| Daily-range filter | Whether it is on, and the session window |
| Risk profile and lot sizing | Profile choice and risk percentage per trade |
| Recovery | Drawdown trigger, lot multiplier and maximum loss per cycle |
| Equity guard | Maximum drawdown percentage and resume cooldown |
| News and spread | Pre and post event windows, maximum spread |
A panel on the chart shows net profit, win rate, trade count, current drawdown against your limit and a countdown to the next scheduled high-impact news event. Pause and resume buttons let you stop new entries manually, and a chart map marks swing points, structure zones and active signals.
Trading leveraged instruments such as gold carries a high level of risk, and you can lose more than you expect. Past results, including backtests, do not predict future results. Recovery positions increase exposure during adverse moves. Test on a demo account first and only risk money you can afford to lose.
A VPS is a sensible choice for continuous operation, and it is worth running the Strategy Tester with your own broker's data to see how spreads and execution affect the results.

It is a MetaTrader 5 expert advisor designed for gold, quoted at most brokers as XAUUSD. Some brokers add a suffix or use a different name such as GOLD, so check your broker's symbol list and attach the EA to the matching chart.
Copy the expert advisor file into the MQL5/Experts folder of your terminal (File, Open Data Folder), restart MetaTrader 5 or refresh the Navigator, then drag the EA onto an XAUUSD chart. Make sure Algo Trading is switched on and allow automated trading in the EA properties.
M15 is the suggested chart timeframe. The EA also reads a higher-timeframe trend filter on its own. Test any other timeframe in the Strategy Tester on your own broker data before using it on a live account.
Yes. When a trade moves into drawdown past a set threshold, the EA can open a further position and manage the pair as a basket with a shared target and a maximum loss per cycle. This adds exposure, so review the multiplier and loss cap carefully and test them before trading real money.
That depends on the firm's rules. Check whether they allow expert advisors, basket recovery, trading around news and the drawdown limits they apply, then compare them with the EA's settings. Nothing in this tool ensures that a challenge or account rule will be met.
No minimum is stated here. The right balance depends on your broker's gold contract size, leverage, the risk profile you choose and the recovery settings. Check the lot sizes the EA calculates in the Strategy Tester on a demo account first.
