AI trading improvement · Gold

A gold journal fed by your broker, not by hand.

Connect the MT4 or MT5 account read-only on Plus or Pro and every XAUUSD fill arrives on its own, with the session it was taken in beside it and Edge pointing at what to fix. Pro adds full COT positioning and seasonality for gold. Gold is the CFD most of this community trades.

How it works

  1. 01 / 03

    Connect read-only

    The MT4 or MT5 investor login. Nothing is installed in your terminal and no trade can be placed.

  2. 02 / 03

    Trade gold as normal

    Fills arrive with the lot size, swap and commission the broker reported.

  3. 03 / 03

    Read it by session

    London against New York, and the setup that is paying for the rest.

Trade log

One instrument, however your broker spells it.

GOLD, XAU and XAUUSD are folded into one instrument, so a broker switch does not split your gold record into three sets of stats.

  • Aliases folded into XAUUSD
  • Swap and commission as reported
  • Partials and scale-ins handled
The DT Terminal Trade Log showing XAUUSD fills with results and tags.

Analytics

London or New York, which one pays you.

Gold moves differently across the two sessions it is most traded in. Filter the record by session, day and setup and every number recomputes.

  • Expectancy by session and setup
  • Equity curve and drawdown
  • Compare two months side by side

Research

Positioning and seasonality for gold.

COT positioning, seasonal tendency by month, real yields and the calendar are scored in one place for the instruments you have saved. The call is yours; the context is there.

  • COT positioning for gold
  • Seasonal tendency by month
  • Economic calendar with alerts

Verified

A gold record the broker agrees with.

Synced trades carry a verified seal on your record and on your public page. Typed ones are marked self-reported, and that difference is the whole point.

  • Broker-verified badge
  • Public record at your own page
  • Boards rank verified records only

FAQ
