Lizard MT5

Lizard is a multi-strategy swing breakout system built exclusively for gold (XAUUSD): it scans the H1 chart for key structural highs/lows and places pending stop orders at precisely calculated levels, entering only on a genuine breakout to filter out fakeouts. No martingale, no grid, no averaging in — every trade carries a defined stop-loss and take-profit.

6 strategies running in parallel

• Six independently optimized strategies run simultaneously on H1, each with its own SL/TP, trailing system, magic number and risk weighting
• Balance-based zone activation: ≤$1000 runs Zone A only; above $1001 runs Zone A + Zone B
• Smart time filter automatically blocks hours with a historical profit factor below 1.0

Multi-layered exit system

• Break-even, trailing stop-loss, trailing take-profit, step-based Magic Trail, and a software-side virtual stop-loss independent of the broker
• Automatically pauses around NFP releases; pending orders are cleared before the daily close window
• Prop-firm-compatible max daily drawdown limit for challenge accounts

Live signal (independently verifiable)

The “Verified live” block further down this page shows the author's public MQL5 signal with figures synced daily (return / win rate / max drawdown / profit factor / weeks live). Treat that as the source of truth — early short-sample numbers regress as the sample grows, so we don't hard-code any snapshot into this copy.

Requirements

• Symbol: XAUUSD only; timeframe: H1
• Minimum balance $250; account type: Hedging (ECN/RAW preferred)
