M1 Gold Hedge
A breakout and hedge recovery Expert Advisor designed for Gold (XAUUSD). The EA places directional breakout orders aligned with the H1 trend bias. When a position moves against you, a recovery position opens in the opposite direction at a larger lot size. All positions are managed as a single basket and close automatically when the profit target is reached. Fully compatible with both netting and hedging account types.
How It Works
Entry
At the start of each cycle the EA scans the last N bars for a high/low range and places a BuyStop above the high or a SellStop below the low, depending on the H1 EMA trend direction. Only one basket runs at a time. Pending orders that are not filled within the expiry window are cancelled automatically.
Hedge Recovery
When the active position moves against you by the hedge trigger distance, a new position opens in the opposite direction at a larger lot size. This repeats up to the maximum number of hedge levels. With default settings the exposure grows as follows: 0.01 → 0.02 → 0.03 → 0.05 → 0.08 → 0.12 lots.
Smart Recovery
When the basket is frozen due to drawdown, the EA can optionally open a single trend-aligned recovery position sized to cover the total loss and still reach the profit target in one move. The recovery direction is confirmed against the H1 EMA bias before entry.
Basket Exit
- Hard take-profit — closes all positions when combined profit reaches the target dollar amount.
- Trailing take-profit — activates above a configurable threshold and steps back from the peak profit.
- Minimum profit floor — no automated close executes unless basket profit exceeds this amount, ensuring every exit is in profit.
Two-Layer Protection System
- Freeze mode — when a USD loss or equity drawdown threshold is breached, no new hedge levels are placed. Existing positions remain open. The freeze lifts automatically when the basket recovers to break-even.
- Emergency close — if the account margin level drops below a configurable threshold, all positions are closed immediately to prevent a broker stop-out. This is the only automated close that can execute at a loss.
- Margin check — before every new hedge placement, free margin and equity are verified. The order is blocked if either falls below the safety threshold.
Broker-Safe Order Placement
The EA calculates minimum SL/TP distances using the broker's stops level plus the live spread, eliminating "Invalid stops" errors that affect other EAs on wide-spread instruments like Gold. When a position is within the broker's freeze zone, the EA skips forced closes and lets the position exit naturally at its TP or SL.
Trend Filter
An optional ADX and Bollinger Band filter on the M5 and M15 timeframes blocks new basket entries when the market is trending. Directional entry is further filtered by a fast/slow EMA cross on H1 — the EA only places BUY breakouts in a bullish bias and SELL breakouts in a bearish bias. Hedge recovery management continues unaffected when the filter is active.
Session Filter
Trading is restricted to a configurable daily time window. The recommended window for Gold is 08:00 – 21:00 GMT, covering the London open through the full New York session. The EA reads the symbol's actual session schedule directly so the filter works correctly in both live trading and the Strategy Tester.
Live Dashboard
A real-time on-chart panel displays balance, equity, free margin, spread, daily P&L, floating basket profit, total exposure in lots, current hedge level, active take-profit targets, pending order status, trend filter state, H1 bias direction, and recovery attempt counter. A one-click button closes all positions and stops the EA immediately.

Risk Warning
This EA uses a martingale-style recovery system. Lot sizes increase with each hedge level and total exposure grows significantly in adverse market conditions. Always test thoroughly on a demo account before live trading. Ensure the freeze levels and emergency close threshold are configured appropriately for your account size. Past performance in the Strategy Tester does not guarantee future results.
