MetaTrader 4 users looking for a lightweight, low-deposit EA that excels at scalping will find a solid ally in EA Trend V1.8. Built specifically for XAUUSD (Gold) and GBPUSD on the M1, M5, and M15 charts, this version refines its trend-detection algorithms to deliver fast, repeatable entries and exits. With a minimum deposit of just $100, both new and seasoned traders can deploy EA Trend V1.8 without blowing out their account.


 Overview
EA Trend V1.8 MT4 employs a combination of moving average crossovers and volatility filters to lock onto the dominant market direction, then scalp micro-runs within that trend. Unlike some EAs that rely on grid or martingale schemes, this one uses fixed lot sizing and dynamic stop-loss levels—so you won’t see grid blowups or runaway drawdowns. It’s optimized for fast execution brokers, making the most of tight spreads on gold and GBPUSD.

 Trading Strategy
EA Trend V1.8 kicks off a trade when its fast and slow moving averages cross in the direction of the overall trend, confirmed by a volatility filter (ATR-based). It then places a tight stop-loss below/above the recent swing high/low, and sets a take-profit at a 1:1.5 or 1:2 risk-reward ratio. Trades only fire during user-defined hours to avoid low-liquidity sessions. The result? A steady stream of small wins that compound over time.


Backtest & Live Performance
Backtests on a 10k USD deposit over 6 months of tick data show an average monthly return of +5–7%, with a max drawdown under 8%. Equity curves display smooth upward growth with minimal stagnation. In live/demo environments, users report consistent pocket-money profits of 10–20 pips per day on gold, and 5–10 pips on GBPUSD, even during choppy markets. As always, past performance isn’t a guarantee—but the numbers look promising.
