MetaTrader 5 · XAUUSD · News only

Trade the gold news spike without watching the clock.

Gold Volt places a Buy Stop and a Sell Stop around price just before high-impact USD news. When the spike fills one side, it trails a cutoff behind the move and exits on its own. Outside news it stays flat.

News times from the built-in MT5 Economic Calendar · No grid, no martingale · 1 license = 1 MT5 account

How it works

One idea, done the same way at every release.

Waits for news

Reads high-impact USD events (NFP, CPI, FOMC, PPI and more) from the MT5 Economic Calendar. No trades outside the news window.

Straddles price

Before the release it places a Buy Stop above and a Sell Stop below the current price.

Follows the spike

When one side fills, the other becomes a cutoff order that trails behind the best price, with optional break-even.

Exits by itself

The cutoff closes the trade, or reverses it if the spike turns. A daily loss limit can stop it for the day.

2 Oct 2026 · BUY during a news spike

These are selected trades. Not every news event ends in profit: some releases chop both ways and close at a loss. Backtest Gold Volt on your own broker's data before you trade it live.

What you control

Every part of the logic is an input you can change.

News window

Minutes before and after each release, and which currencies count. A CSV schedule works too.

ATR or fixed distances

Entry, first cutoff and trailing distance follow volatility (ATR) or fixed points.

Reverse or flat

On a cutoff, reverse into the new direction or simply close and wait.

Daily limits

Daily loss limit and profit target, in percent of balance or in money.

Netting and hedging

On netting accounts the cutoff is a real server-side stop. On hedging accounts the EA closes the old side.

Free to backtest

The same file runs in the Strategy Tester without a license, so you can test it before you pay.

Questions

Is Gold Volt profitable?

We don't promise results. News trading is fast, and some releases whipsaw in both directions and end in a loss. Results also depend on your broker's spread and execution, so run the free Strategy Tester version on your broker first.

Does it trade all day?

No. By default it only opens trades from 15 minutes before to 60 minutes after high-impact USD news. Outside those windows it stays flat.

Where do the news times come from?

From the Economic Calendar built into MetaTrader 5, refreshed every hour. The Strategy Tester has no calendar, so there the EA reads the CSV schedule included in the download.

Does it use a grid or martingale?

No. It uses one fixed lot per order, and the exit is the trailing cutoff order.

Do I need a VPS?

MT5 must be running during the news. A VPS is the easiest way to be sure of that.

How is the license delivered?

After payment your license is activated for the MT5 account number you entered, and you receive a download code by email. Allow https://quantivfx.com in Tools > Options > Expert Advisors so the EA can check the license.
