Follow The Trend — XAU Edition v2.0 | Advanced Grid, Pyramid & ATR Trailing
Follow The Trend XAU is a comprehensive, institutional-grade algorithmic trading suite built specifically to handle the high volatility of Gold (XAU/USD) and other fast-moving assets.
It is not just a simple entry bot — it is an advanced trade management system featuring dynamic ATR-based Grids, Trend Pyramiding, Volatility-Adjusted Trailing Stops, and a highly interactive On-Chart AI Panel.
Whether you want a fully automated "hands-free" robot or an advanced assistant for your manual trading, this cBot provides ultimate control over your risk and profit taking.
🌟 CORE FEATURES
📉 1. Smart Trend Filters & Entry Triggers
- Higher Timeframe (HTF) Filter: The bot evaluates the macro trend (e.g., H4 MA4Cross) and strictly blocks trades against the dominant market direction.
- Auto Entry Modes: Choose from MA4Cross, MACD, or EMA Pullbacks to automatically execute precision entries.
- Manual Mode: Trade manually using the On-Chart UI Panel, and let the bot handle the complex Grid/Trailing math automatically.
🧱 2. Advanced Position Building (Grid & Pyramid)
- ATR Dynamic Grid (Averaging Down): When the market moves against you, the bot opens recovery levels. Instead of fixed pips, the grid distance dynamically expands during high volatility (ATR) to prevent premature entries.
- Trend Pyramiding (Scaling In): When the market moves in your favor, the bot aggressively scales into the winning trend, automatically trailing Stop Losses upward to protect accumulated profits.
💰 3. Next-Generation Profit Taking
- Dollar ($) Basket Trailing: Tracks the peak profit of the entire basket and closes when price pulls back by a predefined dollar amount.
- 🔥 P75 Volatility Trailing (ATR): Advanced trailing that analyzes the 75th percentile of recent True Range. The trailing step dynamically expands during wild market spikes and tightens when the market calms down.
- Hard Cap Ceiling: Set a fixed dollar limit (e.g., $200). If a massive news spike (like NFP) hits your target, the bot instantly closes everything without waiting for a trailing pullback.
🎛️ THE INTERACTIVE UI PANEL (AI TOOLS)
Trade directly from your chart with unique, interactive features:
- Drag Break-Even (AI BE+$5): Click a button to spawn a visual, dashed line on your chart placed exactly at your basket's Break-Even price + a small profit. Grab the line with your mouse and drag it anywhere on the chart! If the price touches your line, the basket closes.
- 50% Sandwich Close (AI Partial): Caught in a messy grid? Click this button to instantly close exactly 50% of your basket's volume. The AI smart-matches your best winning positions with your worst losing positions, neutralizing bad entries while locking in partial profits.
- Panic Buttons: Instant "Close All Buys" / "Close All Sells" for emergency situations.
🛡️ UNCOMPROMISING RISK MANAGEMENT
Protecting your capital is the #1 priority of this bot:
- Daily Hard Loss Limit: If your daily realized + floating losses hit your predefined limit, the bot force-closes everything and stops trading until midnight UTC.
- Margin Diagnostics & Protection: The bot actively monitors your Free Margin. It prevents opening new grid levels if it detects you might hit the broker's Stop-Out level.
- Emergency Margin Close: Force-closes the basket if your Margin Level % drops dangerously low.
- Recovery Pauses: If a basket closes at a loss, the bot can pause all trading for N-candles, letting the market "cool down" before re-entering.
- Max Duration: Automatically closes baskets that have been stuck in consolidation for too many hours.
⚙️ WHO IS THIS FOR?
- Gold (XAU/USD) Traders: Tuned specifically for assets with deep pullbacks and aggressive trends.
- Prop Firm Traders: Features like Daily Hard Loss and Max Lot Limits make it perfect for passing and maintaining Prop Firm evaluations.
- Hybrid Traders: Perfect for traders who want to pick their own entries (Manual Mode) but hate managing the complex math of Grids, Break-Evens, and Trailing Stops.
Note: The bot includes two beautifully designed, interactive HTML manuals (Setup Guide & Exit Strategies Guide) detailing every parameter and recommended strategy combinations.

-----Detailed description in the attached photos-----
The tests shown are based on the past, but the future is unknown. I recommend at least two months of testing. Good results can be achieved with a semi-auto H1/M5-15 strategy on XAU. You should never trade against the trend. I do all tests on the ICM broker - each broker needs individual settings adjustments.
Trading gold and other financial instruments carries significant risk of loss. Past performance of this or any automated trading system does not guarantee future results. Follow The Trend XAU Edition is a tool to assist trading — not a guarantee of profit. Always test on a demo account before deploying with real capital. Never risk funds you cannot afford to lose.
