You can run FCGGoldBot, our in-house XAU/USD Expert Advisor. Or bring us your own trading rules and we'll code them into an EA for you. Either way, it runs on your own account, with your broker, and only when you switch it on.
The problem
Most traders don't fail because their rules are bad. They fail because they don't follow them: they hesitate on the entry, move the stop or revenge-trade the loss. An EA applies the same rules the same way every time. It can still lose, but it won't improvise.
Two ways to automate
Start with FCGGoldBot, our ready-made gold EA. Or have us turn your own strategy into production-grade code.
Our in-house XAU/USD Expert Advisor for MT5. It runs one documented strategy, 24 hours a day, five days a week, on your own PU Prime account.
Bring us your trading rules. We agree them with you in writing, code them in MQL5, test them and hand them back as an Expert Advisor you run on your own MT5 account.
Engineering standards
Every EA is written for MetaTrader 5 and runs directly in your terminal. There's no middleman platform.
Per-trade caps, daily loss limits and maximum open positions can be built into the code, so they're enforced automatically.
The EA trades only in the hours and conditions you specify, and stays out when spreads widen or news hits.
Every build goes through the MT5 Strategy Tester. You see the simulated results, and their limits, before it goes anywhere near a live account.
The EA runs on your account with your broker. Turning off Algo Trading stops it instantly. We never hold or move your money.
You get a written rule specification and a settings sheet, so you know exactly what the EA does and why.
How a custom build works
Five steps. You never write a line of code.
We go through your strategy, your account and what you want automated, and tell you honestly whether it can be coded well.
We turn your strategy into a precise written specification covering entries, exits, risk, sessions and filters. Nothing gets coded until you approve it.
We build your Expert Advisor for MT5, with your risk controls written into the code.
We run it through the MT5 Strategy Tester and send you the report. It's simulated, and we explain what it can and can't tell you.
You get the EA, the documentation and help installing it, plus revisions and ongoing support. You decide when it runs.
Transparency
Most automated-trading sites lead with screenshots of profits and "first month" figures. We don't, because no EA can promise results, and anyone who implies otherwise is selling you hope. Here's what we put in writing instead.

No. For GoldBot, you follow the setup guide or book a free setup call. For a custom build, you explain your rules in plain English, and we write the specification, code it, test it and help you install it.
It depends on how complex your strategy is: the number of conditions, timeframes, filters and risk rules. We quote a fixed price on your strategy call, after we understand what you trade. There's no obligation.
Only strategies with clear, objective rules. If part of your approach relies on discretion or gut feel, we'll tell you on the call and help you define it. If we can't code it properly, we'll say so rather than take your money.
No. A backtest is a simulation on historical data. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results, and live trading includes spreads, slippage and market conditions a test can't fully capture. We give you the report to understand how the rules behave, not as a forecast.
Never. The EA runs on your own MT5 account, with your broker, in your name. GoldBot uses a PU Prime account opened through FCG. FCG never holds, moves or withdraws client funds.
FCG is not authorised or regulated by the FCA, and nothing here is financial advice. We build and supply trading software and provide education. You decide whether, when and how to use it.
