Midas is a fully automated trading robot designed for the cTrader platform, specifically targeting Gold (XAU/USD) on the 30-minute (M30) timeframe. It employs a proprietary breakout detection algorithm to identify high-probability breakout setups and executes trades exclusively via stop orders that confirm momentum before entry. The robot features distinct long and short entry logic optimized for gold's market behavior.
Risk management is adaptive and volatility-based, using ATR-scaled stop-loss, take-profit, and trailing stops to maintain consistent reward-to-risk ratios. It includes bar-based exit timers to close trades that stall, automatic position closure before the weekend, and a daily trade cap to limit activity during choppy market conditions. Position sizing can be configured as fixed lots or as a percentage of the account balance.
All key parameters are adjustable, including signal sensitivity, risk multipliers, position sizing, exit timing, and trading hours. Midas does not use grid, martingale, or averaging down strategies, ensuring one clean entry per signal with defined risk. It is suitable for traders seeking a set-and-forget, breakout-focused automated strategy for gold trading with adaptive risk controls.
