Gold London
Gold London trades the London morning on gold. At 09:00 server time it marks the high and the low of the last 12 hours and waits just beyond them with a buy stop and a sell stop, so it is only in a trade when gold really breaks out of the night range. Orders that do not fill are cancelled after 8 hours.
Every trade carries a small fixed stop loss from the first second, and a tight trailing stop banks the move quickly. Its own-results switch watches its recent breakouts: when they add up to a loss it follows its signals on paper only and trades again when breakouts work again. It sits out Mondays and US jobs-report (NFP) days.

How it trades
The London morning
At 09:00 server time it marks the high and the low of the last 12 hours and waits just beyond them with a buy stop and a sell stop.
Small fixed stop
Every order carries a small fixed stop loss from the first second. A loss is always a known, small amount.
Tight trailing exit
The trailing stop starts early and follows closely, so a breakout is banked quickly.
One trade at a time
When one side fills the other order goes. Unfilled orders are cancelled after 8 hours.
Skips the risky days
No setup on Mondays or on US jobs-report (NFP) days, and nothing rests over the rollover.
Pauses itself in bad markets
It watches its own recent breakouts. When they add up to a loss it follows the signals on paper only, and trades again when they turn positive.
Signals from our server
The levels come signed from our licence server - the same for every partner, nothing to tune.
What you need
Suggested capital = 3 times the worst drawdown in our backtest, or 33 times its biggest single loss if that is more - so the worst stretch we tested costs at most a third of the account, and one losing trade about 3%.
Lot size by deposit
Our recommendation
Under $300? Open a cent account. With $50 on a cent account, Gold London trades up to 0.16 cent lots - the worst drawdown in our test would have cost about $5. That is a safe start, and the lot grows with your balance.
$300 or more? A USD account works too: 0.01 lot needs $300, where the worst test drawdown was about $33 (11% of it). Never more lot than the table below: our server holds every account to it.
Our server sets the most this EA can trade from your balance, so the account is never over-lotted. Bigger balance, bigger lot. Running several EAs on one account? Add up their amounts - the balance is shared.
| Deposit | USD account | Cent account |

| $600 | 0.02 | 2.00 |
| $1,500 | 0.05 | 5.00 |
| $3,000 | 0.10 | 10.00 |
| $6,000 | 0.20 | 20.00 |
