Major Update Released: GOLD Scalper PRO v2.0

Major Update Released: GOLD Scalper PRO v2.0

We are happy to officially introduce GOLD Scalper PRO version 2.0 — a major update with significant improvements to performance, stability, and usability.
This is not a small update. We’ve completely refined the core of the EA and added powerful new features designed to increase profitability while keeping risk under control.

Below you will find a detailed and transparent overview of what is new in this release.

What’s New in Version 2.0

• Second trading strategy added
• Significantly improved core trading logic
• Higher trading frequency
• New Drawdown Protection System
• Removal of unnecessary and outdated features

Improved Core Trading Logic (System 1)

The most important change in GOLD Scalper PRO v2.0 is the complete refinement of the core trading strategy, also known as System 1.

We optimized the decision-making logic to:

• Trade more frequently
• Enter trades more precisely
• Improve overall profitability

As a direct result of these optimizations:

• ~50% increase in trading frequency
• ~70% increase in profit for the core trading system

These results are based on real backtests, not marketing claims. Anyone can independently verify them by running backtests on their own platform. Check below image:

Note: These results apply only to System 1 (Core Strategy) using default settings.

Second Trading Strategy (System 2)

Version 2.0 introduces a brand-new second trading strategy called System 2.

System 2 is based on pending orders, placed according to predefined rules combined with current market conditions.

Each trade is managed using:

• Stop Loss
• Take Profit
• Trailing Stop

System 2 can be easily enabled or disabled directly from the EA settings.

The strategy is simple in design, yet highly effective.

Combined Performance: System 1 + System 2

When both trading systems are enabled:

• Over 300% increase in trading frequency
• Over 20,000% increase in profit compared to the previous version

These results were achieved using:

• Default settings
• 1% risk per trade
• Backtest period starting from the year 2000

Yes, the numbers are impressive — and fully reproducible. Check below image:

Drawdown Protection System

Many of our users trade on prop firm, FTMO, or funded accounts, where strict drawdown rules apply.

To support this, we have integrated a Drawdown Protection System that:

• Helps protect accounts from excessive drawdown
• Is very easy to configure
• Requires no advanced trading knowledge

Detailed configuration instructions are provided in the user guide.

Removed Unnecessary Features

To make GOLD Scalper PRO cleaner, faster, and easier to use, we removed features that are no longer needed:

• Grid system
  With two profitable trading strategies now available, a grid system is no longer required.
• Panel buttons (manual trade control, stealth mode, news filter, time buttons)
  All settings are now controlled directly from the EA parameters, making the EA simpler and more intuitive.

Automatic GMT Offset Detection

We have added automatic GMT offset detection, eliminating common configuration issues and improving ease of setup.
