Donaldson R F Forex trading · Expert Advisors · XAUUSD
I trade forex and write Expert Advisors.
I am a developer who trades. I write my own Expert Advisors for MetaTrader 5 and put them here, together with the live XAUUSD data and the tools I use every day.
The Expert Advisors can trade any currency pair. I use them on XAUUSD. Each one has its own page that says what it does, what it needs and how to install it. Test any of them on a demo account first, and move to a real account only when everything works as you expect.
The DRF Key is a subscription that gives access to the Expert Advisors, with a seven day free trial. DRF Signal shows one live account that trades XAUUSD only. Signals for other instruments may come later. The live data on this site is XAUUSD for now, and other pairs are possible later.
I mostly trade with micro lots and open several orders. What matters most to me is keeping the drawdown low, and I aim to close each week in positive territory, although some weeks I do not. This is how I trade. It is not a rule of any service here and it is not a promise of results.
