Terms of Use

Last updated: June 2026
⚠️ Risk Warning: Trading financial instruments including gold (XAUUSD) involves a significant risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. You may lose some or all of your invested capital. Do not trade with money you cannot afford to lose.

Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using the Gold Auto Trade website (goldautotrade.com) or any services provided by Gold Auto Trade, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, please do not use this website.

Not Financial Advice

All content on this website — including text, graphics, and any automated trading tools or systems described — is provided for informational and educational purposes only. Nothing on this website constitutes financial advice, investment advice, trading advice, or any other form of advice.

Gold Auto Trade is not a financial advisor, investment manager, broker, or regulated financial firm. We do not provide personalised investment recommendations. Any trading decisions you make are your own and are made entirely at your own discretion and risk.

You should seek independent professional financial advice before making any trading or investment decisions.

Risk Warning

Trading in financial markets — including but not limited to foreign exchange, gold, and other commodities — carries a high degree of risk:

  • Past performance of any trading strategy or system is not indicative of future results
  • Automated trading systems, including Expert Advisors running on MetaTrader 5, do not guarantee profit and can result in losses
  • Market conditions can change rapidly, and no system can account for all possible market scenarios
  • Leverage, which is commonly used in forex and gold trading, can amplify both gains and losses

Gold Auto Trade accepts no responsibility for any financial losses incurred as a result of using any information, strategies, tools, or software described or provided through this website.

Affiliate Disclosure

Gold Auto Trade participates in an introducing broker (IB) arrangement with Vantage Markets. When you open a trading account using our partner link, we may receive a commission from Vantage based on your trading activity.

This commission is paid by Vantage and does not result in any additional cost to you. Our recommendation of Vantage Markets is based on our assessment of their platform suitability for use with our Expert Advisor — however, you should conduct your own due diligence before opening any trading account.

Our IB commission from Vantage Markets is entirely separate from any subscription fees you pay directly to Gold Auto Trade. Whether or not we receive IB commission does not affect the trading instructions delivered to your EA, the strategies available to you, or the support you receive.

Similarly, links to IONOS VPS hosting are referral links and we may receive a commission if you sign up through them. This does not affect the price you pay to IONOS.

Expert Advisor License

The MetaTrader 5 Expert Advisor (EA) provided by Gold Auto Trade is licensed, not sold. Each license is issued for use on a single, specific MT5 account number. You may not:

  • Copy, redistribute, or share the EA file with any third party
  • Attempt to reverse-engineer, decompile, or modify the EA
  • Use the EA on an account number other than the one it was issued for
  • Transfer your license to another person without our written consent

We reserve the right to revoke a license at any time if these terms are breached. The EA connects to our server infrastructure — we reserve the right to update, modify, or discontinue the service at any time.

Access and Fees

During the current Partner Access launch, access to the GAT Expert Advisor and automation system is provided through a partner/IB verification model rather than a direct subscription fee. No direct software subscription fee is charged during this period.

Conditions of Partner Access:

  • You must open and verify a supported broker account through our designated partner route, or provide evidence of an existing qualifying account
  • Access is granted only after your broker/IB status is confirmed by us
  • Access remains available while your partner verification status remains valid and can be confirmed
  • Access may be suspended or revoked if your partner verification is removed, cannot be confirmed, or if these Terms are breached
  • GAT may receive partner/IB commission from supported brokers based on your trading activity — at no additional cost to you
  • This arrangement does not give GAT access to your funds and does not affect the trading instructions delivered to your EA

GAT provides access to the automation software (the Expert Advisor), the live strategy automation system, and associated support services only. This does not represent a share of trading profits, a managed account service, financial advice, or any guarantee of trading performance or profitability.

If a direct subscription fee is introduced in the future, these Terms will be updated to describe the applicable pricing, payment terms, and billing arrangements at that time.

Access Continuation

Partner Access continues for as long as your partner/IB verification status remains valid and confirmed. We will make reasonable efforts to notify you if your access is at risk of being suspended or revoked due to a change in your verification status. To request a review of your access status, or to notify us of any change in your broker account, contact us at hello@goldautotrade.com or via Telegram @goldautotradesupport.

If a direct subscription model is introduced in the future, renewal terms applicable to that model will be added to these Terms at that time.

Ending Access

You may request to end your access at any time by contacting us. Your EA license will be deactivated upon request.

We reserve the right to suspend or revoke access if: your partner/IB verification cannot be confirmed; you breach these Terms; or the Partner Access programme is discontinued. Where reasonably practicable, we will provide notice before suspending access.

As no direct payment is charged during the Partner Access launch, no refund or cancellation payment terms apply at this time. If a paid subscription is introduced, the applicable refund and cancellation terms will be published and agreed before any payment is taken.

⚠️ Legal review note: These Terms are working drafts for the Partner Access launch. They should be reviewed by a UK solicitor before being relied upon, particularly if a paid subscription model or consumer contracts with cooling-off rights are introduced.

FCA Regulatory Status

Gold Auto Trade is not authorised or regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) or any other financial regulatory authority. We are not permitted to provide, and do not provide, any regulated financial services as defined under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (FSMA), including but not limited to:

  • Investment advice or personalised financial recommendations
  • Discretionary investment management or managed account services
  • Arranging deals in investments on a commercial basis
  • Collective investment scheme management

The Expert Advisor is trading automation software. It executes instructions automatically on your own brokerage account based on pre-set, rule-based criteria. At no point does Gold Auto Trade hold, move, or exercise discretionary control over client funds. If you are uncertain whether automated trading is suitable for your circumstances, you should seek independent advice from an FCA-authorised firm before subscribing.

Governing Law

These Terms of Use and any dispute arising out of or in connection with them (including non-contractual disputes) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of England and Wales. The courts of England and Wales shall have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any such dispute. Nothing in this clause limits your rights as a consumer under applicable UK law.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Gold Auto Trade and its operators shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from:

  • Your use of or reliance on any content on this website
  • Any trading losses incurred through the use of the Expert Advisor or any described strategy
  • Technical failures, server downtime, or interruptions to the EA's connection to our infrastructure
  • Actions taken by your broker, including but not limited to Vantage Markets

Your use of this website and any associated services is entirely at your own risk.

Changes to These Terms

We reserve the right to update these Terms of Use at any time. The date at the top of this page will reflect the most recent update. Continued use of the website after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
