Yes. GoldBot Air runs on any MetaTrader 5 account that offers XAUUSD (gold), so it works on ATFX as long as your account is on MT5. ATFX offers MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5.
GoldBot Air v3 trades BUY and SELL sides on gold, starts new trades only on GoldBot SideKick Signals, locks profit on winners and trails them, manages losses with a capped recovery system and stops at a daily target. How GoldBot Air works.
| Check | What we suggest |
|---|---|
| Platform | MetaTrader 5 (GoldBot EAs are MT5 only), hedging account |
| Symbol | XAUUSD, with whatever suffix your ATFX account uses |
| Spread on gold | $0.30 or less for GoldBot Air v3; Raw or ECN accounts are usually cheapest |
| Account size | From about $2,000 on USD accounts, or 200,000 USC on cent accounts |
| Leverage | High enough that margin stays a small part of the balance |
| Uptime | A VPS, so MetaTrader runs 24/5 |
Test on a demo account first and use settings you can afford: automated trading can lose money.
On ATFX you can start with a free 5-day demo key, then a 7-day Instant Demo or a Monthly licence, paid with GoldBot Credits or USDT. One key runs every GoldBot EA. The licence is free if you trade through one of our partner brokers instead: GTCFX, Neex, Star Trader, OEXN.
One key is tied to your MT5 account number and is planned to work in every GoldBot EA.
Whatever you trade with, the free GoldBot App gives you live XAUUSD Scalping and Trend signals, a live candlestick chart, price alerts, key levels and pivots, a daily market brief, a volatility meter, a lot-size calculator and the US news countdown with past impact.
