Apex Pro First Edition EA V1.2 – Safe Gold Scalping

Tired of Gold Wiping Your Account? Here’s a Safer EA Built for Small Accounts

Okay, let’s be real for a second—how many of us have been lured by the potential of XAUUSD? Gold is flashy, tempting, and wildly profitable when things go right... but when they go wrong? Oof. Margin calls. Blown accounts. Panic sells. It’s brutal.

I didn’t even plan to trade gold at first, but curiosity got the better of me (sound familiar?). That’s where the Apex Pro First Edition EA V1.2 for MT4 comes in—a game-changer built specifically for gold scalping on the M5 chart, and yes, it’s made with small accounts in mind.

You don’t need a $1,000 starting balance or advanced degrees in algorithmic trading. If you’ve got $30+ in your trading account, a MetaTrader 4 platform, and a decent internet connection, you’re ready to go. And the best part? It’s 100% free to download on ForexFactory.cc, backed by the YoForex team with real backtests and live account proofs.

Backtest Proof & Live Performance

We’re not here to just say it works—we’ve got receipts.

Backtests were conducted over 24 months of historical XAUUSD data using variable spreads and real tick data on the M5 timeframe. The results?

Total Return: +635%

Max Drawdown: 7.8%

Winning Trades: 81.6%

Monthly Avg Growth: ~15.5%

And that’s not all. We’ve also run live accounts on IC Markets and FXOpen, monitored via MyFXBook and MT4 analytics. The live equity curve looks just as steady as the backtests—something rare in the world of gold scalping.

YoForex has been stress-testing this bot across multiple brokers and VPS environments, ensuring it’s not a one-broker-wonder.
