Verified XAU/USD EA · funds stay with your broker
Let a verified gold-trading bot grow your broker account — and pay nothing until it makes you money.
Your broker account, your money. Our bot trades gold on it — hands-off. You pay €0 until it's in profit.
Honest fit
Built for one kind of person. Wrong for everyone else.
We'd rather you self-select out now than churn three weeks in. SmartEA is a long-term, hands-off play — not a get-rich-quick trade.
Built for you if
- You want passive exposure to gold without learning to trade
- You can park €/$1,000 at a regulated broker for at least 6 months
- You want every trade reported by the broker, not by us
- You want a kill switch you can hit any time
Not for you if
- You're an active MT5 trader looking for another signal service
- You can't afford to lose the €/$1,000 deposit
- You expect guaranteed monthly returns — nobody honest can promise that
- You won't keep funds at a regulated broker in your own name
Why most people stay stuck
The three traps for anyone trying to grow money on the side.
Your cash is losing every month you wait.
Sitting in a savings account, it gets eaten by inflation while gold rips without you. Doing nothing isn't safe — it's the most expensive option on the table.
Every 'guru' EA wants your money up-front.
Lifetime licenses. Setup fees. Telegram VIPs. They get paid the day you join — and ghost the first losing week. You carry all the risk.
Trading it yourself is a second job.
Charts at midnight, missed entries, anxious exits. Even the wins barely cover the hours. You don't need another job — you need the work done for you.
The cost of doing nothing isn't zero — it's another year of the same.
How it works
Three steps. Your money never leaves the broker.
No deposit to SmartEA. No custody. No funny accounts. The EA only ever has permission to place trades on the broker account you already control.
You fund your own broker account.
Open an MT5 account at IC Trading, Fusion, Vantage or VT Markets and put in €/$1,000. Your name, your login, your money.
The broker holds the money — not us.
A regulated broker holds the capital and clears every trade. SmartEA gets trade-only API access. Withdrawals stay with you.
Our EA does the work — you do nothing.
The EA places XAU/USD trades on your account 24/5. Credentials AES-256 encrypted. You watch P/L. That's the job.
Notice what's missing from this diagram: SmartEA touching your money.
Your money stays yours
If SmartEA shuts down tomorrow, your account is still yours.
Your MT5 account still exists. You log in to your broker directly, manage or close open positions, withdraw as normal. SmartEA disappearing has zero impact on whether you can access your money.
Why this is structurally safe — not just "we promise."
- · Deposit goes to a regulated broker entity, not us
- · SmartEA's API permission is trade-only, never withdraw
- · Funds segregated under the broker's regulator
- · You can revoke API access from MT5 in one click

The offer
Here's the whole stack — and the only thing you actually pay.
No setup fee. No monthly subscription. No contract. You pay SmartEA €0 until the EA is in profit — then 20% of profit, billed bi-weekly. If the EA doesn't profit, the invoice is zero.
Everything you get the moment you join
The whole stack — and the only thing you actually pay.
- EA running on a SmartEA-hosted MT5 terminal, attached to your broker account
- 5 risk presets (Low, Medium, Medium-High, High, YOLO) — switch from the dashboard
- Bi-weekly P/L invoice with a full trade report
- 1-click Pause or Stop · revoke API access in MT5 any time
- MT5 credentials encrypted with AES-256-GCM, never stored in plain text
Cohort bonuses
- First month: profit share waived
- Limited loss coverage on cohort capital (capped cohort)
- Refer a friend: reduced profit share for a period
You pay
€0 to SmartEA until the EA is in profit.
Then 20% of profit, billed bi-weekly via Stripe or crypto. If the EA doesn't generate profit in a period, the invoice is zero.
The €/$1,000 deposit is your own trading capital at a regulated broker — it is not a payment to SmartEA and never touches our accounts.
Why this bet is asymmetric
· Worst case: EA loses → you pay SmartEA €0.
· Best case: EA profits → you keep 80%, we take 20%.
· Either way: your money sits at your broker. You can pull it any time.
The Profit-First Guarantee
You don't pay us until you profit. Period.
If we don't make you money, you don't pay us.
20% of profit, billed bi-weekly. No profit, no invoice. Zero setup fee, zero subscription, zero contract.
Your money never touches SmartEA.
It sits in your own MT5 account at a regulated broker. We can place trades. We cannot withdraw a cent.
Kill it in one click — any time.
Pause from the dashboard or revoke API access in MT5. No notice period. No approval queue. No questions.
Why this product exists
Built on three rules we won't break.
We never custody your funds.
Capital stays in your own MT5 account at a regulated broker. SmartEA executes trades — that's it.
We don't invent numbers.
Every EA stat — return, drawdown, win rate, profit factor — is pulled live from MT5. If we can't show it from the broker, we don't publish it.
You stay in control of the kill switch.
Pause, switch or stop copying from the dashboard, or disable the EA directly in MT5. No notice period, no approval queue.
The €1,000 question
"Wait — you said no deposit. So what’s the €/$1,000?"
The €/$1,000 is your trading capital at a regulated broker — on an account in your name, that you can withdraw from any time. It's not a payment to SmartEA and never touches our accounts. We say 'no deposit' because you pay us nothing. Below €/$1,000, broker spreads, commissions and minimum lot sizes start eating results faster than the EA can grow them — so the minimum isn't a gate to keep you out, it's the level where the math actually works in your favour.
Questions worth asking
The objections we actually hear.
IC Trading, Fusion Markets, Vantage Markets and VT Markets — all regulated under ASIC, FSCA, FSC, VFSC or FSA, all with full MT5 support. Required setup: Raw Spread / ECN account, USD currency, leverage 1:500 (non-EU). Practical entry deposit is €/$1,000 — the level that unlocks the broker bonus and gives the EA enough margin.
SmartEA runs MT5 terminals on its own servers. Your broker account is connected to one of those terminals, and our Expert Advisor places trades through it — trading XAU/USD (Gold vs USD) with a grid strategy that opens additional positions if price moves against the trade and closes baskets when conditions recover. Funds always stay in your own broker account in your name.
Typically 1–2 times per week, sometimes zero. The EA only acts on favourable trend / time conditions — it waits rather than forcing trades. No experience is required from you; it runs automatically once connected.
Yes. The EA exposes 5 risk presets you can switch from the dashboard: Low, Medium, Medium-High, High and YOLO. Higher presets size positions more aggressively against your balance. You can change preset, pause or stop at any time.
From the SmartEA dashboard: Pause stops new trades while keeping management of open ones, Stop closes all positions and ends the subscription. You can also disable the EA directly inside MT5. No lock-ins, no notice period.
Registration is free. SmartEA charges a 20% profit share, billed bi-weekly by invoice (Stripe or crypto) with a detailed trade report. If the EA doesn't generate profit in a period, you don't pay a fee. The €/$1,000 deposit is your trading capital at the broker — it is not a payment to SmartEA.
MT5 credentials are encrypted with AES-256-GCM and never stored in plain text. SmartEA's permissions are limited to placing and managing trades — we cannot deposit, withdraw or transfer funds out of your account.
Withdrawals happen entirely inside your broker account. Card payouts typically arrive next business day; crypto withdrawals in roughly 30 minutes to 2 hours. SmartEA has no role in moving funds.
The performance stats are pulled from a public Myfxbook account (#1 EA, real, MT5) — return, drawdown, win rate, profit factor and trade count are reported by the broker, not edited by us. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
Yes. Profits are realised in your own brokerage account in your own name, so you handle taxes per your country's rules. Your broker can export an annual trade report for your accountant.
Your broker account, your funds and your open trades are unaffected. You log in to MT5 directly, manage or close positions, and withdraw as normal. SmartEA disappearing has zero impact on whether you can access your money.
