Zeus Gold is an expert advisor for MetaTrader 5 that trades gold using a simple daily breakout rule. It looks at the previous day's high and low, and enters when the current price moves beyond either level.
Once the new trading day is under way (shortly after 01:05 on your broker's server clock), the EA reads the prior day's range. If price moves above yesterday's high, it opens a buy. If price moves below yesterday's low, it opens a sell. It holds one position at a time and is limited to one buy and one sell per day, so trade frequency is low.
These distances are measured in gold price terms, so check how they translate on your broker's symbol, since digits and contract size can differ.
The EA is made for XAUUSD only. Because the logic relies on daily levels, it can be attached to any chart timeframe, but you should attach it to the gold symbol your broker provides and confirm that the symbol is visible in Market Watch.
Check the full input list on loading. The main options are summarised below.
| Setting | Purpose | Default |
|---|---|---|
| Strategy mode | Chooses the stop loss distance | Mode 1 (smaller stop) |
| Take profit | Multiple of the stop distance | 5 times |
| Lot calculation | How trade size is determined | Check inputs |
| Max drawdown % | Stops new trades for the day after a loss limit | Disabled |
| Trading days | Select which weekdays are traded | Monday to Friday |
| Long only | Restricts the EA to buy trades | Check inputs |
A breakout approach can produce a run of small losses when price moves beyond a level and then reverses. Fixed stops and the optional drawdown limit help manage exposure but do not remove risk, and gaps or slippage on gold can cause losses larger than planned. Pick a lot size that fits your account and test thoroughly first.
Trading carries risk, and past results, including any backtest, do not predict future ones. Test on a demo account before using real funds.

No. It is built for MetaTrader 5 and will not run on MT4. Make sure your broker offers an MT5 account before buying.
The EA is designed for gold, so attach it to the XAUUSD chart. Because it works from the previous day's high and low, it is not tied to a single chart timeframe. Your broker may name the symbol slightly differently, such as with a suffix, so check the symbol list in Market Watch.
The product is described as opening only one order at a time, with at most one buy and one sell per day, and without averaging down. Even so, review the input list yourself after loading it and test on a demo account to confirm the behaviour matches your expectations.
Copy the EA file into the Experts folder inside your MetaTrader 5 data folder (File, Open Data Folder, MQL5, Experts), then restart the platform or refresh the Navigator. Open an XAUUSD chart, drag the EA onto it and switch on the Algo Trading button.
There is an optional maximum drawdown setting that stops new trades for the rest of the day once the limit is reached. It is switched off by default, so enable it and choose a level that suits your account. Note that large price gaps or slippage can still cause losses beyond a set limit.
Test on a demo account first, confirm your broker's server time, spread and stop-level rules for gold, and check the lot size method. Trading carries risk, and past results do not predict future ones.
