Cloud Trader Gold EA V1.1 MT4

Introduction

Still struggling to tame the wild swings of gold on MetaTrader 4? Maybe your bots keep blowing up accounts or choking during news events? We feel you.

Let us introduce Cloud Trader Gold EA V1.1 MT4 — a stable, intelligent, and rule-driven Expert Advisor designed exclusively for XAUUSD on the H1 timeframe.

Built by the talented crew at YoForex, this EA doesn’t rely on martingale gimmicks or laggy indicators. Instead, it uses a "cloud logic system" that syncs price behavior with smart risk controls and consistent entry patterns.

And yep — it's 100% free, fully open to the public on MQL5.software.

Overview: What Is Cloud Trader Gold EA?

At its core, Cloud Trader Gold EA V1.1 is a trend-following EA designed specifically for XAUUSD on the H1 (1-hour) chart.

This Expert Advisor uses a proprietary cloud-based trade filtering mechanism, combining elements of Ichimoku, dynamic support/resistance, and moving average confluence to identify high-probability entries and exits.

Unlike bots that overtrade, Cloud Trader focuses on quality over quantity, giving it the breathing room needed to ride gold trends — not scalp micro pips with risky logic.

Whether you’re working with a $500 personal account or prepping for prop firm funding, Cloud Trader is built for low-drawdown consistency and scalable returns.
