How it trades

A trend EA: it joins XAUUSD moves that are already under way instead of trying to call reversals.

Entry
When a move gets goingOn a closed H1 candle, when price breaks out of its recent range in the direction of the larger trend, it opens one position.
Exit
Trailing stopA trailing stop follows price and closes the trade when the move fades, or after a maximum holding time.
Stop loss
Always setEvery trade carries a fixed protective stop. Several small losses in a row are normal for this style.
When it stays out
No trade, by designIt skips flat, choppy markets, wide spreads and the daily rollover period, and holds one position at a time.
