What Forex Gold Investor is
Forex Gold Investor by FX Automater is a grid, trend-following EA on XAUUSD (MT4/MT5), sold via AlgoTradingSpace. We classify it independently — by strategy risk, verified live track, transparency and value, not by vendor promises.
Live results & track record
AlgoTradingSpace documents 2 independent accounts for this EA, the longest over 568 days — details in the accounts table below. Its most telling account shows +158,6 % (+2,2 %/month) at a maximum floating loss of -15,0 %, profit factor 1.12 (Eightcap Global Limited). That is real money, not a polished backtest.
Strategy & risk
The grid, trend-following approach sets the risk profile. Grid/martingale systems often show a suspiciously straight equity curve — losses are absorbed by averaging in until one trend blows up the basket. A too-smooth curve here is a warning sign, not a seal of quality. What AlgoTradingSpace adds is calibration with a fixed risk cap instead of the aggressive vendor default — exactly the ceiling a grid without a hard stop-loss needs.
Cost & usability
Price sits at 100–500 €. Via AlgoTradingSpace you get a setfile, onboarding and support — the EA doesn't have to run blind on the vendor default. The published accounts run across several brokers (Eightcap Global Limited, MyFX Markets PTY Ltd), which argues against broker dependence.
Who it is (not) for
Suitable for traders who accept a documented live track and run the EA calibrated via ATS (with a risk cap) and budget it as *one* building block. Not suitable for small accounts without a buffer or for anyone who mistakes a smooth backtest curve for a guarantee.
Verdict
Forex Gold Investor lands at 4.0/5 — worth a closer look. The verified ATS live track is the strongest argument.
Verified live / funded accounts
Real accounts AlgoTradingSpace publicly links for this EA (Myfxbook-fed). Max floating loss is the most honest risk figure — how deep open positions ran into the red at their worst.
