cTrader · XAUUSD M5
Watch the historical R13 walkthrough, then follow the separate $10,000 FTMO server demo record. The demo includes earlier builds and handovers; it does not isolate the current R13 HF1 build's performance.
Demo and simulated results do not guarantee future returns or passing a prop-firm challenge.

Featured products
One XAUUSD-focused trading system, packaged for two platforms: Lock30x XAUUSD for MetaTrader 5 users and LOCK30x XAU M5 cBOT for cTrader users.
The MetaTrader 5 edition is available through the official MQL5 Market listing for buyers who want MQL5 licensing, installation, and updates.
The cTrader edition brings the Lock30x gold workflow into cTrader with its own dashboard, visual tester screenshots, and cTrader Store listing.
Both versions are built around XAUUSD-style gold symbols, broker differences, spread checks, session behaviour, and responsible testing.
MetaTrader 5
Use this path if you trade through MetaTrader 5 and want the EA delivered through MQL5 Market licensing.
cTrader Store
The cTrader edition is a separate XAUUSD M5 cBot with four configurable engines, account monitoring and broker-specific setup checks.
MT5 demo trade history
This 48-second screen recording walks through the MT5 trade history from a BlackBull Markets demo account. The privacy-safe full PDF report—with the complete history, costs, balance curve and result summary—is published on the Lock30x product page.
Demo and historical results are not live performance and do not guarantee future results.
cTrader panel reference · v2.90
The supplied v2.90 interface shows open bot P/L, account balance and equity, engines A–D, bot results and risk, spread, guard and entry status. Match the panel version shown inside your installed cBot to its Store release and settings.

How to approach it
Use MQL5 if you want the MetaTrader 5 EA, or cTrader Store if your trading account is inside cTrader.
Attach the bot to your broker's gold symbol, such as XAUUSD, XAUUSD.P, XAUUSD.a, XAUUSDm, or GOLD.
Run backtests using your own broker data, spread, commission, leverage, and server time. Compare long-term results against the most recent section.
Forward-test on demo or low-risk conditions before considering any live account exposure, especially around gold news and high-spread periods.
Official purchase paths

Custom MT5 development
Send ExpertCodeFX your platform, market, timeframe and exact trading rules for a free, no-obligation feasibility review. We’ll identify what can be automated, what still needs clarification and provide a written scope with a fixed quote.
The free review is technical, not a profit promise. We can build software from defined rules, but we do not invent guaranteed strategies or manufacture performance claims.
Approved projects also include 30 days of bug-fix support for the agreed written specification. Simple MT5 automation projects start from $199; complex work is quoted after review.
We review the rules, identify missing decisions and explain the likely technical approach before you commit to a build.
For one clearly defined MT5 strategy with agreed entries, exits, risk rules and a practical set of configurable inputs.
For advanced execution, multiple engines, portfolio controls, statistics panels, documentation or broader testing requirements.
Debugging legitimately owned MQ5 source, trade-management utilities, indicator automation and systematic optimization research.
What the free review covers
What it does not include
Important: Custom software development does not include financial advice or a promise that a strategy will be profitable. Historical, simulated and forward-test results can differ from future live performance because of market conditions, broker pricing, spreads, commission, slippage, leverage, platform configuration and data quality.
Risk notice
Expert Advisors can lose money. Backtests are not guarantees. Broker spread, execution speed, slippage, commission, swaps, symbol specification, VPS reliability, market news, and historical data quality can materially change results. Use any EA only after independent testing and with risk you can afford to lose.
Official channels

Common questions
No. This site is the official product hub and sends buyers to the correct store: MQL5 for the MT5 EA, or cTrader Store for the cBot.
No. No automated strategy can guarantee profit or prop-firm success. The correct workflow is backtest, demo test, review drawdown, then decide whether the risk fits your account.
Lock30x is positioned for XAUUSD/gold trading. Broker symbol names may include suffixes such as XAUUSD.P, XAUUSD.a, XAUUSDm, or GOLD, so always confirm the exact chart symbol.
No. The review checks whether clearly defined rules can be automated, identifies missing decisions and provides a proposed scope and quote. Development begins only after the written specification, price and delivery terms are agreed.
