The Prompt
Create an AI-based trading system for MetaTrader 5 (MT5) that specifically trades the XAU/USD currency pair (Gold vs US Dollar).
The system should include:
– Data Analysis:
– Utilize historical and real-time data from MT5 for XAU/USD to identify trading signals.
– Trading Strategy:
– Implement an algorithm that determines when to enter and exit trades based on the AI model.
– Integration:
– Ensure the AI trading bot operates within the MT5 environment using MQL5 or by interfacing Python through the MT5 API.
– Risk Management:
– Incorporate risk controls such as stop-loss, take-profit, and position sizing.
– Performance Evaluation:
– Provide metrics and reporting for trading performance.
