The Pipeline

Strategy to trade — five stages

01
Origin
Strategy Analysis
Our proprietary system continuously analyses XAUUSD market conditions — price action, key levels, and macroeconomic factors — to identify high-probability trade setups meeting our criteria.
📊
02
Validation Layer
Decision Engine
Each potential trade is validated against risk parameters — checking entry, stop-loss, and take-profit values before any instruction is passed further. Incomplete or invalid setups are rejected automatically.
🔍
03
Transmission
Instruction Server
A validated trade instruction is formatted and pushed to our secure server. The EA running on your VPS polls this server continuously and picks up new instructions the moment they arrive.
☁️
04
Execution Engine
MT5 Expert Advisor (MQL5)
The EA receives the instruction, applies local risk rules (lot sizing, account balance checks), and fires the order directly into your Vantage Markets MT5 account. Stop-loss and take-profit are set automatically.
🤖
05
Result
Live Trade on Your Account
A real order is placed on your brokerage account. The EA continues monitoring the trade — trailing the stop-loss, partially closing, or exiting — based on the strategy rules. Everything is logged on your VPS.

What the EA actually does

📡
Continuous Monitoring

Polls the instruction server every few seconds. Reacts the moment a new trade instruction arrives — no manual trigger ever needed.

🛡️
Risk Management

Every order is placed with a stop-loss and take-profit attached. The EA enforces these — protecting the account from runaway losses.

📐
Dynamic Lot Sizing

Calculates the correct position size based on your account balance and the preconfigured risk-per-trade percentage.

🔄
Trade Management

Beyond entry — the EA can trail stops, partially close positions, and adapt to updated strategy instructions, all without your involvement.

🔐
License-Locked

Each EA is bound to a specific MT5 account number and our server. It cannot be copied or run on an unauthorized account.

📋
Full Logging

Every action — instruction received, order placed, trade closed — is written to a local log file on your VPS for complete auditability.

Trading Approach

XAUUSD — one instrument, deep expertise

GAT focuses exclusively on XAUUSD (Gold). Specialising in a single instrument allows our trading team to develop a deeper, more consistent edge than spreading across multiple pairs.

Trades are generated by our automated strategy system — analyzing price action, key levels, macroeconomic drivers (inflation, USD strength, geopolitics), and London/New York session dynamics.

No — that's the entire point. Once the EA is installed on your VPS, it operates completely autonomously. The VPS runs 24/7 and the EA continuously monitors market conditions and executes trades according to the strategy rules. You don't need to leave your computer on, watch charts, or take any action.
We specifically recommend Vantage Markets. The EA has been configured and tested on their MT5 platform. Vantage offers raw spreads on XAUUSD and provides the fast execution the EA relies on. Using a different broker is not supported and may cause incorrect behavior.
Your funds are held in your own brokerage account at Vantage Markets. GAT never holds, moves, or has direct access to your funds. The EA is only permitted to open, modify, and close trades within MetaTrader 5. You retain full control and can disable the EA or withdraw funds at any time.
No. We walk you through every step — broker account, VPS, MT5 installation, and loading the EA. We provide a detailed written guide and you can message us via Telegram or email if you get stuck. Setup typically takes less than a day once your accounts are open.
Typically 3–8 trades per week depending on market conditions. Each trade is placed with a stop-loss and take-profit, and the EA limits risk per trade to 1–2% of account balance. However, all trading involves risk of loss and past results are not a guarantee of future performance.
We earn commission from the Vantage broker partnership when you sign up through our partner link — this covers our operational costs. There's no ongoing fee charged to you for the EA or the automated strategy system. This keeps costs low and our incentives aligned with your account performance.
