🔁 GoldCycle — One Trade a Day. Closed Before the Day Ends.

A daily gold breakout system that adapts its stop loss and take profit to current volatility, trades once, and goes flat by the close of New York.

GoldCycle is an automated Expert Advisor for XAUUSD on MetaTrader 5. It reads the day’s high and low during the early European session, places limit and entry orders around those levels, and sizes the trade from a real-time view of volatility. Stops and targets contract in quiet markets and expand in active ones.

Maximum one trade per day. No overnight holding. No weekend exposure.

⚙️ How It Trades

1. Collects the daily range. From a configurable start time, the EA records the day’s high and low.
2. Places orders around it. Entry and limit orders go above and below the range during the early European session, offset by a configurable distance.
3. Sizes from volatility. The internal engine measures current volatility and sets SL and TP accordingly — tighter in calm markets, wider in volatile ones.
4. Sizes the lot from risk %. Lot size is calculated from your risk percentage and the stop distance, so tighter stops produce larger lots.
5. Closes by end of day. All open positions and pending orders are closed by the end of the New York session.

⚠️ Before You Buy

🔴 Short public track record. The two MQL5 signals date from late September 2026. Treat them as a few weeks of evidence, not a history.

🔴 Developer rating is 3.6★ across 84 reviews. That’s below average for MQL5 sellers at this price point. Read the reviews on his other product before deciding.

🔴 Check your broker’s server time. Defaults assume GMT+2 with DST. On a GMT0 broker or Exness, use the alternate set files or the daily levels will be wrong.

🔴 Be careful with recovery mode. If you enable it, each loss increases the size of the next trade. On a daily system, a run of losses compounds quickly.

⚠️ Trading Risk Statement

Trading CFDs on Gold involves significant risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. Past performance, including backtests and live signals, does not guarantee future results. Lot size scales inversely with stop distance, so low-volatility days produce larger positions. Daily breakout systems produce runs of consecutive losses in ranging markets. Test on demo first, and only trade with capital you can afford to lose.
