A professional, rules-based trend-following cBot for Gold (XAUUSD) on M15
This cBot combines dual EMA crossovers, RSI momentum confirmation, and a minimum price move filter to capture high-conviction trends in XAUUSD. Built with no black boxes, no curve-fitting, and strict safety logic, it’s designed for serious traders who value discipline over hype.

Professional Risk Safeguards
----------------------------------------
1-Equity Drawdown Protection: Halts trading at user-defined % loss
2-Friday Auto-Close: All positions closed at 23:58 server time
3-Margin Monitoring: Pauses if margin level < 120%
4-Max Lot Cap: Prevents overexposure
5-Symbol Enforcement: Only runs on XAUUSD
Single-Position Philosophy
---------------------------
This cBot opens only one position at a time — by design.
1-Prevents overexposure in volatile gold markets
2-Ensures full focus on high-conviction setups
3-Reduces conflicting signals during reversals
This is not a limitation — it’s a core risk principle shared by both Trial and Pro versions. We recommend testing both modes in demo before live use.
Critical Risk & Usage Notice
------------------------------------------
1-Trading involves substantial risk — including total loss of capital
2-Past performance ≠ future results — even with robust logic
3-Always test in demo first — validate parameters under live spreads & slippage
4-No news filter: Avoid major events (NFP, FOMC) — Gold reacts violently
5-Drawdown is equity-based (includes floating P/L) — sharp moves may trigger shutdown
6-Trailing Stop & Hedging: Both disabled by default for safety. Enable only after thorough demo testing and full understanding of your broker’s policies.
Recommended Account Setup
---------------------------------------------
Risk per trade should not exceed 1–1.5% of your account equity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-----------------------------------
1. What timeframe and symbol should I use?
→ XAUUSD M15 (H1 also supported — test on demo first). Stops instantly on other symbols.
2. Do I need to optimize parameters?
→ No. All defaults are production ready. Adjust only after demo testing.
3. Why no trades for hours/days?
→ By design. Waits for strong trend + RSI confirmation + 100-pip move.
4. Recommended settings for a $10,000 account (1:500 leverage)?
→ Use defaults: Risk Percent: 1.0, Stop Loss: 200 pips, Max Drawdown: 15%
5. Can I use this live right away?
→ No. Demo test first — understand behavior in choppy vs. trending markets.
6. Why is Trailing Stop / Hedging disabled?
→ Both are high-risk features that depend heavily on broker behavior and market conditions.
→ They are available as parameters — but disabled by default to ensure safe onboarding.
→ Enable only after validating their impact in demo mode.
7. What happens if I enable hedging?
→ Broker-dependent. Some reduce margin; others increase costs or restrict it.
→ Verify your broker’s policy before enabling.
8. Why did the bot close all positions on Friday?
→ “Close Positions Friday 23:58” is enabled by default. Disable via parameter if needed.
9. Can I get a refund?
→ Refunds are only approved for technical malfunctions (per Store policy).
→ This bot functions as described — no refund warranted.
→ Always test in demo first.
