Are you tired of one-sided scalping EAs that blow your account every time gold spikes? Meet the XAUUSD Hedging Scalper EA V1.0 MT4 by YoForex, your new free ally for gold trading. This isn’t just another scalper; it’s a clever hedging robot that pairs breakout entries with risk-balancing hedges… all fully back-tested and live-verified by the YoForex team. Best part? It’s 100% free on MQL5.software.

Overview

XAUUSD Hedging Scalper EA V1.0 MT4 is designed specifically for gold (XAUUSD) on MetaTrader 4. Its core purpose is simple: capture quick scalps in volatile gold swings while neutralizing adverse moves with hedges. Built by the experts at YoForex, this EA employs a dual-order mechanism—when price breaks your defined threshold, it opens a primary position and simultaneously places a hedge position at a calculated offset. That way, if price retraces, your hedge cushions potential drawdown. Live-market tests show consistent daily profits with minimal stress — you’ll hardly break a sweat watching charts.

Backtest Results

We ran the EA on 5 years of XAUUSD tick data (2018–2023), using a $1,000 demo account. The equity curve is impressively smooth, with a 32% annualized return and max drawdown at just 4.8%. Sample size: 850 trades across M1 timeframe. Here’s the summary:
