What is QuantumTrend AI?

QuantumTrend AI is a subscription-based automated trading bot that trades XAUUSD (Gold) on MetaTrader 5. It uses a trend-following strategy — entering trades only when the MA 10/50 cross aligns with the 200 MA trend direction, with a fixed stop loss and take profit set on every single trade.

Every trade has a defined maximum loss (150 points) and a target profit (300 points), giving a 1:2 risk-to-reward ratio. The bot is profitable at just 40% win rate — no compounding lots, no Martingale, no hidden blow-up risk. Monitor everything from the web dashboard — no terminal, no coding required.

• Windows machine or Windows VPS — MT5 only runs on Windows
• MetaTrader 5 — installed and logged into your broker account
• MT5 broker account — demo or live (Exness, XM, FBS recommended)
• QuantumFlip AI subscription — Starter ($29/mo) or Pro ($79/mo)
• Stable internet connection — required for 24/7 operation

Minimum account balance: $50 (recommended $100+)

Quick Start

Trend Following Strategy

The strategy trades only in the direction of the dominant trend, entering on a confirmed MA crossover signal and exiting at a fixed stop loss or take profit — no Martingale, no compounding lots.

How it works

• 200 MA trend filter — only BUY signals above the 200 MA, SELL signals below
• Entry signal — MA 10 crosses MA 50 in the direction of the trend
• Fixed Stop Loss — 150 points below/above entry (max loss is always known)
• Fixed Take Profit — 300 points (1:2 risk-to-reward ratio)
• Fixed lot size — 0.01 every trade, no compounding
• MT5 manages SL/TP automatically — bot just waits for the next signal

Example trade

Why 1:2 R:R matters

With a 1:2 risk-to-reward ratio, the bot only needs to win 34% of trades to break even, and 40%+ to be consistently profitable. The backtested win rate of 61.9% gives a substantial profit buffer.

Performance

Backtested on 2 years of real XAUUSD hourly data (11,446 candles):

A profit factor of 3.25 means for every $1 lost, the bot makes $3.25. The max drawdown of $9 against $189 total profit is a drawdown ratio of under 5% — a hallmark of disciplined fixed-risk trading.

Past performance does not guarantee future results. Live trading includes slippage, spread variance, and execution delays not captured in backtesting.

Risk Management

• Fixed stop loss on every trade — maximum loss of 150 points is defined before entry
• Fixed lot size 0.01 — no compounding, no Martingale, no runaway exposure
• 200 MA trend filter — bot only trades with the trend, not against it
• 5% daily loss cap — bot stops for the day if account equity drops 5%
• Spread filter — no trades when spread exceeds 30 points
• Session filter — only trades 10:00–22:00 EAT (London + NY sessions)
• MT5-managed exits — SL and TP are set directly on the order; MT5 closes them automatically even if the bot disconnects
