Does GoldBot Air work with PrimeXBT?

Yes. GoldBot Air runs on any MetaTrader 5 account that offers XAUUSD (gold), so it works on PrimeXBT as long as your account is on MT5. PrimeXBT offers MetaTrader 5.

GoldBot Air v3 trades BUY and SELL sides on gold, starts new streaks only on a stochastic signal in the direction of the EMA trend, trades the London session, manages losses with a capped recovery system and stops at a daily target. How GoldBot Air works.

How to set it up on PrimeXBT

  1. Open or log in to a PrimeXBT MT5 account. A Raw, ECN or zero-spread account usually has the lowest gold costs.
  2. Install MetaTrader 5 from your PrimeXBT client area or our download page, and log in with your account number and the server shown by PrimeXBT.
  3. Find gold in Market Watch. On PrimeXBT it is XAUUSD or XAUUSD with a suffix (for example .m, .c or #). Use the one your account trades.
  4. Get your licence. Create a free GoldBot account and take the free 5-day demo key for your PrimeXBT MT5 account number; your key appears in My Licence and runs every GoldBot EA.
  5. Attach the EA. Copy GoldBot Air (and its presets) into MQL5, turn on Algo Trading, drag it onto one gold chart, load a preset and paste your key.
  6. Keep it running. Use a Windows VPS close to PrimeXBT's trading server so the EA runs through the London session.
