# Gold Scalpers EA > Gold Scalpers EA is an automated MetaTrader 5 (MT5) Expert Advisor — a pure XAUUSD (gold) M5 scalper. It trades hands-free using a Slope Direction Line × 50 EMA crossover confirmed by the ZeroLag MACD, with prop-firm-ready risk controls. Price: $140 one-time (lifetime license), 30-day money-back. Gold Scalpers EA is a rules-based gold-trading robot for MetaTrader 5. It enters when the Slope Direction Line crosses the 50 EMA (slope up through the EMA = buy, down = sell), confirmed by the ZeroLag MACD being on the correct side of zero plus an optional confirmation candle. The stop loss sits at the most recent swing high/low beyond the 50 EMA (real market structure); break-even protection then moves it to entry once the trade is in profit so a winner cannot become a loser. Momentum Pyramiding optionally adds to a WINNING trade as it runs - never averaging down - and every add-on shares one basket stop, tightened by a step-stop on each fill. Risk is capped by daily profit/loss limits, a max-drawdown guard, a position cap, a chop/whipsaw filter, a loss-streak cooldown, and spread/session/news filters. Pyramiding can be turned off for prop-firm single-entry mode. A live on-chart dashboard shows status, a signal-readiness bar, BUY/SELL arrows and P&L; alerts are delivered by pop-up, mobile push and Telegram. ## Key facts - Platform: MetaTrader 5 (MT5), works on any broker - Market: XAUUSD (gold) only, M5 timeframe - Strategy: Slope Direction Line × 50 EMA crossover + ZeroLag MACD confirmation + optional confirmation candle - Stop-loss: swing-structure stop (last swing high/low beyond the 50 EMA) + break-even lock + step-stop trailing - Take-profit: quick scalping target; optional Momentum Pyramiding adds to winners only - Break-even: stop moves to entry + a locked amount once the trade is in profit - Prop-Firm Mode: percentage daily-loss and max-drawdown limits from balance baselines, hard lock on breach - Pre-flight self-check on attach (permissions, history, spread, indicators, licence) - Risk controls: daily loss/profit limits, max-drawdown guard, max daily orders, spread/session/news filters - Price: $140 one-time, lifetime license (regular $220) - Guarantee: 30-day money-back - License: bound to the buyer's MT5 account number (allow-list at https://goldscalpers.com/licenses.txt) - Not martingale; optional Momentum Pyramiding that can be turned off for prop-firm single-entry mode ## Key pages - [Home](https://goldscalpers.com/): product overview, features, live signal demo, pricing - [Checkout](https://goldscalpers.com/checkout): buy the EA ($140, card or crypto) - [Backtest results](https://goldscalpers.com/results): MT5 Strategy Tester backtest on XAUUSD, run on an earlier M15 configuration (hypothetical, reproducible) - [Pricing (machine-readable)](https://goldscalpers.com/pricing.md): structured pricing for AI agents - [Support](https://goldscalpers.com/support): help and contact - [How to install an EA on MT5](https://goldscalpers.com/blog/how-to-install-ea-on-mt5): step-by-step setup - [Best MT5 EA for prop firms](https://goldscalpers.com/blog/best-mt5-ea-for-prop-firm): prop-firm guide - [Best gold scalping EA for MT5 (2026)](https://goldscalpers.com/blog/best-gold-scalping-ea-mt5): buyer's checklist for choosing a XAUUSD scalping EA - [XAUUSD scalping strategy (full rules)](https://goldscalpers.com/blog/xauusd-scalping-strategy): the EMA + RSI gold scalping system the EA automates - [How to pass a prop firm challenge on gold](https://goldscalpers.com/blog/how-to-pass-prop-firm-challenge-xauusd): the risk math + how Prop Firm Mode enforces it - [Prop firms hub](https://goldscalpers.com/prop-firms/): per-firm EA settings for FTMO, FundedNext, The5ers, FundingPips - [Trading strategy hub](https://goldscalpers.com/blog/trading-strategy-hub): pillar page indexing every strategy guide - [Blog](https://goldscalpers.com/blog/): trading-strategy and EA guides - [What moves gold: US data and FOMC minutes](https://goldscalpers.com/blog/how-us-data-and-fomc-move-gold): how US consumer data and Fed minutes reach XAUUSD via rate expectations, and how to trade the release window - [AI chart analysis tool](https://goldscalpers.com/ai-chart-analysis): upload an MT5 or TradingView screenshot, get a structured read using the Slope x 50 EMA and MACD rules the EA trades ## Policies - [Refund policy](https://goldscalpers.com/refund-policy): 30-day money-back - [Risk disclaimer](https://goldscalpers.com/risk-disclaimer): trading is high-risk; past performance is not indicative of future results - [Terms of service](https://goldscalpers.com/terms-of-service) - [Privacy policy](https://goldscalpers.com/privacy-policy) ## Contact - Support: support@goldscalpers.com
