Automated Gold Trading System · MT5 · v1.0

Hunt the market alone.
Trade on your terms, around the clock.

Lone Wolf is a fully automated trading system built for one market: gold (XAUUSD). Nine strategies run together on a single chart, every trade has its own stop loss, and it never sleeps — so you don't have to watch every candle.

What It Does

A complete trading system, not just an entry signal

Every part of the trade is handled for you: finding the setup, sizing the position, protecting it, and getting you out at the right level.

Nine Strategies, One Chart

Three SBC modes (Scalper, Day Trader, Swing) and six Lone Wolf engines run together on one gold chart. Each one waits for its own confirmed setup — no chasing price, no impulsive trades.

Built to Leave No Trade Unprotected

Stops are sent with the order, retried if a broker rejects them, and a watchdog re-checks every position on every tick — designed with multiple layers of redundancy against a naked position. A stop loss limits a loss but cannot guarantee the exit price: fast markets, low liquidity and weekend gaps can fill it worse.

Daily Loss Circuit Breaker

Optional: set a maximum daily loss and the software closes everything and halts for the rest of the day. Measured on equity, so open losses count too.

Live News Avoidance

Reads the MetaTrader economic calendar and steps aside before high-impact releases, closing open trades if you want it to.

Tested Trade Management

Stops, profit protection and exits are fixed at the exact values used in the backtest, so the live software trades the way it was tested — nothing to tune, nothing to get wrong.

Automatic Lot Size

Pick Low, Medium or High risk. Each lot is worked out from your balance and that trade's stop, so a losing trade costs about 0.25–0.60% of the account. The panel shows the amount.

Weekend Gap Protection

Everything is closed every Friday at 1 pm New York time, on any broker, so no trade is exposed to a gap when gold reopens on Sunday.

Live On-Chart Dashboard

Market bias, signal status, open buys and sells, your risk per trade, and daily, weekly, monthly and yearly performance at a glance.

Backtested Performance — Gold (XAUUSD)

Nearly 6 Years of Backtesting on Gold

Version 1.0 was tested in the MetaTrader 5 Strategy Tester on gold (XAUUSD) from January 2021 to October 2026 — over 4,400 trades on real tick data. These are backtested results, not live trading results — see the note below before you rely on them.

+3–5%Average Month, Low to High Risk (Personal Account, Backtest)Past results don't guarantee future returns, and trading involves risk.
13–21%Maximum Drawdown, Low to High Risk
SLEvery Trade Protected by Its Own Stop Loss
EveryYear 2021–2026 Profitable in the Backtest
Every trade is protected by its own stop loss. The stop is set from the moment a trade opens. Each strategy holds at most one trade, risk per trade is fixed by your risk level, and lot size never increases after a loss — no martingale, no grid, no averaging that could turn one bad stretch into a blown account. A stop loss cannot guarantee the exit price: slippage and gaps can make a loss bigger than planned.
Gold (XAUUSD) Backtested Performance 2021 – Oct 2026 · MT5 Backtest

Balance from the MT5 report: $25,000 start, High risk on a personal account, profits compounding, log scale. Low risk grows more slowly with smaller dips — see the table below.

Hypothetical/backtested performance has inherent limitations. Unlike a live trading record, backtested results are achieved with the benefit of hindsight, do not reflect real slippage, execution delay, or changing liquidity, and no representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown. Past or simulated performance is not indicative of future results. Lone Wolf Trader trades gold (XAUUSD) only.

High0.50–0.60%+2,139%+4.9%21%71%−9.8%

About 2–3 trades a day. Year by year at Low risk: 2021 +22%, 2022 +42%, 2023 +34%, 2024 +39%, 2025 +56%, 2026 +44% (to October). Profit factor 1.32 over 4,400 trades. Results are in %, so they are the same whether you start with $500 on a cent account or more on a standard account — the lot size scales with your balance. The MT5 backtest itself ran from $25,000; High risk is that full report; Low and Medium apply the same trades, with their real costs, at the lower risk. Max drawdown is the equity drawdown (20.74% in the High report), scaled for Low and Medium.

Higher risk passes faster but fails more often. We recommend Low for any prop challenge, and Medium only at firms with a 10% maximum loss. Prop accounts use lower risk per trade (0.25–0.50%) than personal accounts, so they grow more slowly than the results above — about +2.3% (Low) to +3.8% (High) in an average backtest month — which is why the 8% target usually took 2–3 months at Low risk. "Typical time" is the median time to pass (Low ~68 days, Medium ~55, High ~38 at a 10% firm). 69 challenges were tested; at Low risk the last one was still running when the data ended. Figures come from replaying the MT5 backtest trades, with their real costs, at the prop risk levels and the 3% daily stop. A backtest cannot guarantee that any challenge will be passed. Using the EA on a prop firm account is optional and at your own risk — check that firm's EA rules first, as many firms restrict shared or third-party EAs.

Important — please read. All figures in this section are hypothetical results from a historical backtest in the MetaTrader 5 Strategy Tester on one broker's gold data. They are not live trading results and no real money was traded to produce them. Your results will be different and can be worse: they depend on your broker, spreads, commissions, slippage, execution, account size, settings, when you start, and on your computer or VPS staying online. Markets change, and a strategy that worked in the past can lose money in the future. Past or backtested performance does not guarantee future results. You can lose some or all of the money in your trading account. Only trade with money you can afford to lose — you trade at your own risk.
Built-in Protection

Designed for your own MT5 account

Lone Wolf Trader is designed for personal MT5 accounts. Every trade carries its own stop loss, the lot size never grows after a loss, and it stays out of the riskiest moments in the market. Optional daily and total loss limits are included for traders who want a hard stop.

✓ You stay in control of your own account: pick Low, Medium or High risk, switch the optional loss limits on or off, and stop the EA at any time. Your money stays with your own broker.
! These controls limit what the software can do on a bad day — they cannot prevent losses. You can still lose money on a losing stretch, and a stop loss cannot guarantee the exit price in fast markets or gaps.
Using it on a prop firm account? That is optional and totally up to you — at your own risk. Check that firm's EA rules first. Many firms restrict shared or third-party EAs, and you are responsible for following their rules. Read the prop firm note.

Start With $500 · Backtest

Watch a $500 Account Through the Full 2021–2026 Backtest

A $500 cent account at Low risk — the smallest live start in our FAQ — replayed trade by trade through the full MT5 backtest (January 2021 – October 2026), profits compounding. It shows every month's gain and each year's gain in dollars on a $500 cent account and on $3,000 and $5,000 standard accounts. Using it on a prop firm account is optional and totally up to you — check that firm's EA rules first. Hypothetical backtest results, not live trading; past results do not guarantee future results. Trading is risky — you can lose money.

Live Trade Updates

Follow the trades as they happen

Backtests are only half the story. We post the software's live trades from our own account every day on TikTok and Facebook, alongside backtest breakdowns and feature explainers. Live posts show trades from one account over a short period — they are not a full or verified track record, and your results will differ. Posts marked as backtest are hypothetical. Past results do not guarantee future results.

The Technology

Built for one market, and built for it properly

Lone Wolf trades gold (XAUUSD) only. Instead of spreading thin across many markets, nine strategies work the same market from different angles — short-term, intraday and swing — and strike when their setup is right.

Nightstalker Engine™

Continuously scans gold price action around the clock, filtering out noise and committing only to confirmed setups. One M5 chart runs everything: attach it once and it handles the rest.

You're purchasing a software license, not an investment product, and no profit is promised or guaranteed. Past or backtested results do not guarantee future results; trading carries a high risk of loss and you trade at your own risk. We are not liable for any trading losses. If the software will not install or activate on a supported setup, tell us within 14 days and we will fix it or refund you; trading results are not grounds for a refund. By purchasing a license you confirm that you are at least 18, that you have read and agree to our Terms of Service, and that you accept the trading risk. We recommend running it on a demo account first.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

We want more traders to be able to try Lone Wolf, so pricing stays deliberately low. You pay once for a lifetime license — no subscription and no renewals.
The Lifetime Plan is a single one-time payment for lifetime access to the full software, priority support and all future updates — there's no subscription and nothing to renew. It comes in three sizes: 1 MT5 account for $249, 2 accounts for $449, or 3 accounts for $599 — handy if you run more than one account. Payment is handled via crypto (BTC, ETH, USDT) — contact support when you're ready to purchase.
Our algorithm does the trading for you, saving you time. It analyzes the market and opens and manages trades by fixed rules. It's fully automated, so no emotional decisions are made, and it runs nine different strategies on gold rather than relying on one setup. It's also easy to use, so you don't need prior experience.
The software is fully automated, so you don't need trading experience to run it, and we'll walk you through the setup. You should still understand that trading gold with leverage is risky and that you can lose money, even with every stop loss in place. Start on a demo account or with Low risk, and only trade money you can afford to lose.
You can test on a demo account with $0. For live trading we recommend $5,000 or more on a standard account ($3,000 minimum), or $500 on a cent account. Below that, the smallest lot size (0.01) on gold can risk more than your chosen risk level.
Gold only — XAUUSD (your broker may call it GOLD, XAUUSD.m, GOLD# and so on). Every strategy was built and tested on gold, so the EA will not start on any other symbol. It does not trade forex pairs or crypto.
One. Attach the EA to a single XAUUSD M5 chart with Trading mode set to All-in-One and it runs all nine strategies. Running a second copy on the same account is blocked, so trades can never be doubled by mistake.
Start on Low. Medium and High grow faster but have deeper dips — in the backtest the worst drop was about 13% at Low, 17% at Medium and 21% at High. See the results by risk level. Each trade risks a small, fixed share of your balance at the level you pick, and the chart panel shows the exact amount. Only move up once you have seen how the EA behaves on your account.
About 2–3 trades a day on average. Each strategy holds at most one trade at a time, so several can be open together, each with its own small risk and its own stop loss. Turn on "One direction at a time" if you'd rather never hold a buy and a sell together — that gives about 2 trades a day.
Yes — that is what it is designed for. Set "Prop firm account" to OFF and the optional limits (daily loss, total loss, profit target) are switched off, so it trades your full account at the risk level you pick. You carry all of the risk on that account.
1:100 or higher. The backtest was run at 1:100.
MetaTrader 5 (MT5).
Not necessarily — a VPS is optional. The EA trades whenever MetaTrader 5 is open and connected, so your own PC works fine while it's switched on. For 24/5 running without leaving your computer on, a VPS is recommended, and we can walk you through either setup.
Yes — the software only manages the trades it opens itself, not any manual trades you place. One thing to know on a prop account: the daily and total loss limits are measured on the whole account, the way your firm measures them, so a loss on a manual trade also counts towards them.
You keep control of your funds at all times. We don't accept your money or trade on your behalf. You use your chosen broker, and you can stop or modify trades whenever you want.
Yes — any MetaTrader 5 broker that offers gold on a hedging account (most MT5 accounts are hedging). The EA reads your broker's clock and adjusts its trading times automatically, so it trades at the same real times whatever time zone the broker uses.
Each download includes a setup guide. If you get stuck, contact support and we'll walk you through it — we can also guide you over a TeamViewer session if you'd rather not do it alone.
Each license works for the number of MT5 accounts you purchased (1, 2 or 3). If you want to switch from a demo account to a live account, you can update your license directly on our website or you can reach out to our support team to assist you.
Lone Wolf Trader is designed for personal MT5 accounts. Optional daily and total loss limits are included for traders who need them. If you plan to use it on a prop firm account, check that firm's EA rules first — it is optional and entirely at your own risk. Many firms restrict shared or third-party EAs: some don't allow them at all, some charge for an EA add-on or limit the account size, and some flag or close accounts whose trades match other traders using the same EA. You are responsible for following your firm's rules, and we are not responsible for a failed, restricted or closed account or a refused payout.
No. No trading software can guarantee profits, and Lone Wolf Trader doesn't. The results on this site come from a historical backtest; past or backtested performance does not guarantee future results. There will be losing trades, losing weeks and losing months, and you can lose some or all of the money in your trading account. You decide whether to run the software, on which account and at which risk level, and you trade at your own risk. Lone Wolf Trader is software only — not financial advice and not an investment service.
The MetaTrader 5 backtest of version 1.0 on gold (XAUUSD), January 2021 to October 2026, every tick based on real ticks: $25,000 start, High risk on a personal account, profits compounding. The software itself doesn't rely on backtesting to trade — it reads live price action and reacts as it happens. This backtest simply reflects how that same logic performed on historical data. It is hypothetical, it is not a guarantee of future results, and live results will vary with your broker, spread and market conditions. Trading involves risk and you trade at your own risk.

Every trade carries its own stop loss from entry. Each strategy holds at most one trade, and lot size never increases after a losing trade — no martingale, grid or averaging that could turn a losing stretch into a blown account.
