Overview
MQ5 Sniper XAUUSD identifies entries through dual Exponential Moving Averages across multiple timeframes, specifically utilizing M5 for entries and H1 for trend confirmation. Risk management is a primary focus, featuring ATR-based stop losses, trailing stops, and a fixed reward-to-risk ratio. To protect the account, the system enforces a maximum daily loss percentage, a trade count limit per day, and an automated kill switch if equity drawdown exceeds a set threshold.
- Multi-timeframe EMA trend confirmation
- Dynamic ATR-based stop loss and trailing stop
- Daily trade frequency and loss limits
- Equity drawdown protection kill switch
- Optional partial trade closing mechanism
