Deskripsi
MARCs GOLD Swing AutoTRADER H4_V01 is a dedicated gold swing-trading cBot for XAUUSD on the H4 timeframe. It is designed as a transparent, rule-based trading system with a clear focus on gold market structure, controlled position sizing and documented long-term backtesting.
The bot includes three selectable risk profiles: Conservative, Medium and Aggressive. Conservative is the default reference profile, while Medium and Aggressive increase trade frequency and risk exposure. The strategy is built for users who prefer a specialized gold system over a generic multi-symbol robot.
A virtual Base Reserve plan is included as an optional risk-management layer. It can reduce the trading base used for future position sizing by virtually separating part of the profits from the active trading capital. This does not withdraw money from the broker account by itself. The optional Small Account Guard is a separate protection feature mainly designed for smaller accounts, where the minimum trade size may otherwise create higher relative exposure.
Documented V01 backtests cover XAUUSD H4 from 2013 to 2026 across different account sizes, profiles and reserve/guard combinations. The tests were created in cTrader Historical Replay using server-side M1 data, a fixed 2.4 p spread and documented commission assumptions. The reports are intended to show strategy behaviour, trade distribution, drawdown phases and the effect of reserve and guard logic. They should not be understood as a prediction of future performance.
Key strengths:
- Specialized XAUUSD H4 swing-trading approach
- Conservative, Medium and Aggressive risk profiles
- Optional Base Reserve logic
- Optional Small Account Guard for smaller accounts
- Transparent backtest documentation
- Designed for use with the MARCs GOLD Swing Trade Monitor
- Clear risk disclosure and no hidden “AI miracle” claims
Recommended account basis for the standard setup is 10,000 EUR. Smaller accounts can be tested with increased caution, especially when using the Small Account Guard. Reserve and Guard functions may reduce final returns because capital is virtually removed from the trading base or profitable positions may be closed earlier.
Risk Notice:
CFD trading is highly risky and can result in losses up to the total capital used. Backtests are not a guarantee of future results. Market conditions, broker execution, spreads, commissions, swaps, liquidity, slippage and platform behaviour can materially affect live results. The bot does not provide financial, investment, tax or legal advice. The user is solely responsible for all trading decisions, account settings, risk exposure and live deployment. Use is at the user’s own risk and responsibility.

How to read the chart lines:
A line labelled Conservative, Medium or Aggressive uses the corresponding risk profile from the profile table above.
A line labelled Reserve Off uses Reserve Plan = Off and Small Account Guard = Off.
A line labelled Base Reserve uses Reserve Plan = Base_AIX5_SPR45_RAP50 and Small Account Guard = Off.
A line labelled Base Reserve + Guard uses Reserve Plan = Base_AIX5_SPR45_RAP50 and the account-size-specific Small Account Guard settings shown above.Gold or XAUUSD reference lines, where shown, are comparison/reference lines only and are not cBot parameter runs.
Ringkasan
Key features include an optional Base Reserve system that virtually separates part of the profits from active trading capital to manage risk without withdrawing funds from the broker account. Additionally, a Small Account Guard feature provides extra protection for smaller accounts by limiting relative exposure due to minimum trade sizes.
Backtests cover the period from 2013 to 2026 using cTrader Historical Replay with server-side M1 data, a fixed 2.4 pip spread, and documented commission assumptions. These backtests illustrate strategy behavior, trade distribution, drawdown phases, and the effects of reserve and guard settings but do not guarantee future results.
The bot supports both long and short trades with fixed risk percentage models and includes risk management tools such as stop loss, trailing stop loss, break-even, and spread filters. It is designed for use alongside the MARCs GOLD Swing Trade Monitor and is recommended for accounts starting at 10,000 EUR.
