Overview

Xauusd Trend Pullback identifies the primary trend using a 200-period EMA on the H1 chart and looks for entries on the M15 timeframe when price retracts to a fast EMA and RSI indicates a momentum reset. Risk is managed through ATR-based stop losses, fixed reward-to-risk targets, and equity-based lot sizing. The expert advisor includes optional management tools such as ATR trailing stops, breakeven adjustments, and partial profit taking, while restricting new orders to specific trading sessions.
