Getting
started.
What you need, what you get, and how DowGold connects to the cloud.
What's the minimum deposit required?
$50, or $5 with a cent account. The EA scales position sizes automatically, so it works on both small and large accounts.
Our own $50 minimum-deposit account runs Balanced mode in public on MyFXBook: +333.31% since Apr 2026, with a max drawdown of 20.60%, and $100 already withdrawn from its $50 deposit. A second public $50 account doubled too: +101.48% with a max drawdown of 12.90%, then $100.74 was withdrawn.
What do I get after paying?
Every license includes:
- DowGold Pro EA: the full Expert Advisor for MT4 and MT5
- Libraries (DLL): connect the EA to our cloud servers, so it works from the cloud's live analysis
- Setup guide (PDF): step-by-step installation instructions
- Member Zone access: your private dashboard with live P&L insights across your accounts
- Lifetime EA updates: every new DowGold release is included. Nothing renews.
- Setup and support: one initial setup assistance with every purchase, then support matched to your plan
Choose your mode, attach DowGold to the chart and go: everything you need to start trading in under 10 minutes, with no complicated configuration.
Can I test it before I buy?
Yes, with a free backtest-only version. Run the strategy on Gold in your own MT5 Strategy Tester, on your own historical data, with no email and no payment. Our live accounts are public on MyFXBook, so you can see exactly how DowGold has performed before buying.
The live EA itself is license-protected, and the strategy stays in our cloud, reserved for licensed customers.
Does the EA connect to your servers?
Yes, and that's a key advantage.
The cloud is the intelligence. It watches Gold, US30 and Silver around the clock, weighing volatility, momentum, news and session conditions, and updates the strategy as markets change. The EA on your own broker account is the risk manager: it works from the cloud's live analysis and applies your mode, risk, lot sizing and limits before it places a trade. It adapts on the fly without you touching a thing.
When we improve the strategy, every connected EA benefits immediately. Your license is also managed through the cloud via the member zone.
Do I need a VPS?
Recommended, not required: a Windows VPS keeps your EA running 24/5, even when your computer is off. VPS plans start from around $10/month.
Is this for MT4 or MT5?
Both. One license covers MT4 and MT5. Choose whichever platform you prefer, or run a mix of the two.
Your license key works on both platforms, and your account slots are the only limit: however you split them between MT4 and MT5, you can run as many accounts at once as your tier allows.

Results
and risk.
The modes, the public record, and how DowGold handles risk on each market.
What trading modes are available?
Four modes included, from the lowest risk to the most aggressive lot sizing:
- Prop Firm: ultra-low risk, built to pass challenges and stay funded, with your firm's daily and overall drawdown limits set inside the EA
- Balanced: low risk, the go-to mode for growing your own account, built to compound over weeks and months
- Aggressive: medium risk, faster growth for your own account, with adaptive scaling
- Flip: medium-high risk and the most aggressive automatic lot sizing, calculated from your current balance within the strategy’s sizing and risk controls. It changes position size, not the number of trades. Use it for short runs: grow the account, bank the profit and start again
Two options sit on top: Fixed Lot, where you set the lot size yourself, and Turbo Gold, an extra Gold strategy that is on by default and can be switched off.
Choose based on your risk tolerance and goals. Same EA, different risk levels. Compare the modes on their public accounts.
Has DowGold really doubled accounts?
Yes, on real accounts that anyone can open and check on MyFXBook.
The best-known is a one-day Flip: a $1,000 account ran to +315.70% on 29 Jan 2026 with a max drawdown of 0.00%. That drawdown is the recorded result of that particular run: Flip can and does have drawdown. Several more public accounts have doubled too.
When a doubling run hits its target, we take the profit out and start fresh, and we advise customers to do the same.
How does the strategy actually work?
Happy to explain. Here's what it actually does.
DowGold isn't one strategy, it's a whole library of them running in one engine: price momentum, volatility and mean-reversion setups on Gold and US30, plus an optional Silver strategy you can switch on. The cloud is the intelligence: it weighs volatility, momentum, news and session conditions around the clock and updates the strategy as markets change. Because the logic lives on our servers rather than baked into static code, we can drop a strategy that is no longer working or add a new one at any time, with every connected EA picking up the change on the fly. That's the whole point of a cloud system: it adapts in real time, which matters more than ever when a single headline can turn the market in an instant.
Your EA is the risk manager. It works from the cloud's live analysis, applies your mode, risk, lot sizing and limits, and places every trade itself on your own broker account. Risk is handled differently on each market, deliberately:
- Gold (XAUUSD): in the standard system, every trade is a single order with its own exit. No grid, no martingale, no recovery stacking. Gold moves too hard and too fast to average into losses, so a losing trade is cut early and the EA waits for the next setup. (Turbo Gold, the extra Gold strategy that is on by default, is the one exception; switch it off for single entries only. See below.)
- US30: usually one trade opens and the profit is banked at take profit. If it is not reached, the EA averages in with precision and with the trend, in a controlled recovery, and closes the trade at a loss if price moves too far. Orders are never added endlessly.
- Silver (XAGUSD): a more aggressive strategy that uses controlled grid recovery: order sizes can scale at extremes, always capped, never blind doubling. Higher profit potential with bigger swings, which is why Silver is off by default and trades only when you enable it.
On top of that, the EA caps what any one position can lose, so the downside is limited, not open-ended. Want more control? Set your own custom drawdown guard right inside the EA, a daily or overall maximum percentage. Prop-firm traders lean on it to stay inside challenge limits, but you can use it on a personal account just as easily.
The exact parameters and code stay private: that's the part competitors would clone and brokers would filter against, and protecting it protects every customer who runs DowGold. The results are public: it all runs on real money, independently verified on MyFXBook, right now. The track record is the proof.
How does DowGold limit risk?
Every license includes all of these:
- News: it opens no new trades before high-impact news, and trades already open keep their own exits. The panel on your chart counts down to the next high-impact USD release, in your broker’s time.
- Timing: it sits out dead sessions. Over a weekend only US30 can stay open, and only if you choose.
- Every trade: in the standard system each Gold trade is one order with its own exit, never averaged into. A losing trade is cut early, and each position’s loss is capped.
- Your limit: set a daily and an overall maximum drawdown in the EA, on a prop or a personal account. If either is reached, it closes every open position and opens nothing new for at least 24 hours.
Protective exit, drawdown and pause controls reduce certain risks but cannot guarantee a maximum loss in every market or technical condition.
What is Turbo Gold (Turbo Mode)?
Turbo Gold, also called Turbo Mode, is an extra Gold strategy that runs alongside the standard system, on Gold only. It is switched on by default, and you can turn it off at any time for single-entry trading.
It adds more Gold trades on top of the standard ones, averaging into Gold positions for faster growth. It still trades with a stop loss, never adds positions without limit and never uses martingale. Drawdown depends on your risk mode and your balance, so set your daily and overall drawdown limits inside DowGold.
Turbo Gold works with Prop Firm mode on prop accounts too. Most prop firms allow averaging, so we recommend keeping it on if yours does; if your firm restricts averaging, switch Turbo off and DowGold trades single entries. Always check your firm's rules. Turbo adds trades, but it does not guarantee a trade every day. Full details are in the user guide.
How many trades does DowGold take a day?
DowGold has no daily trade quota. Some days it takes up to 10 trades, while other days it takes none. It waits for market conditions that meet the strategy's entry criteria.
Turbo Gold adds another Gold strategy and more trades, but no setting guarantees trades every day. Flip mode changes the position size, not the number of trades.
Are the results verified?
Yes. Every DowGold account result comes from a real-money account verified on MyFXBook, and you can check every trade yourself at myfxbook.com/members/DowGoldHS.
Our longest record is also verified on FXMerge.
What happens when an account doubles?
We bank the profit. Flip and doubling runs then restart on a fresh account, exactly what we advise customers to do: take profits off the table, then repeat. Our long-term accounts keep compounding after each withdrawal: $6,274.40 has come out of the Aggressive account so far, with a max drawdown of 31.25%. Finished accounts stay on our MyFXBook profile, where DowGold has been public since 2022, so their history is always there to check.
Can I subscribe to or copy DowGold signals?
No. DowGold is reserved for licensed customers, as the EA on their own MT4 or MT5 account: it works from the cloud's live analysis and manages the risk itself. We get repeated requests to subscribe to or copy our public MyFXBook accounts, and Premium signal access stays disabled.

Licensing
and support.
Updates, support by plan, account changes and where to buy.
Do I get updates and support?
Yes. Lifetime EA updates and your plan’s support tier are included with every license. Nothing renews.
Can I switch my license to a different account?
Yes. Just update your authorized account numbers in the member zone whenever you want. No need to contact us. It works on any computer. The higher your tier, the more trading accounts you can run simultaneously.
How do I get access to the VIP Telegram group?
The private VIP Telegram community is included with the 6-account Ultimate VIP plan, together with VIP Priority Support and concierge setup. Upgrade any plan to Ultimate VIP to join.
Why don't you sell DowGold on MQL5?
DowGold runs on a cloud-connected licensing system and real-time server infrastructure built for exactly this job, beyond anything the MQL5 marketplace is designed to support. Our EA connects to our own servers to work from the cloud's live analysis, manage licenses and pick up strategy updates, and MQL5's distribution model has no room for that.
Security matters too. Listing on MQL5 would expose the compiled EA to a much wider attack surface, increasing the risk of decompilation or reverse engineering. We've invested years into this system, and we protect it ahead of marketplace visibility.
That's why DowGold is only available directly from dowgoldea.com, on Whop, or through our authorized reseller CheaperForex.
Is DowGold now a subscription?
Not the licenses sold here: Core, Complete, Professional and Ultimate VIP are all one-time purchases. Lifetime EA updates and your plan's support tier are included. Nothing renews and nothing is charged automatically.
If you would rather pay monthly or yearly, DowGold is also available as a subscription on Whop, with card payments, and you can cancel any time.
Which support level comes with each plan?
Core includes product support by ticket and email, Complete includes Priority Product Support and Professional includes Enhanced Priority Support. Ultimate VIP includes lifetime VIP Priority Support. Every purchase also includes one initial setup assistance.

Brokers
and platforms.
Where DowGold runs best, and how it fits a prop-firm account.
Is this compatible with U.S. brokers?
Yes, DowGold is compatible with U.S. brokers.
What brokers work best?
It runs with any MT4 or MT5 broker and performs best with an A-book broker, one that isn't trading against you. BlackBull, IC Markets, FXCC, AfterPrime, FP Markets and VT Markets are all good choices.
Does it work on prop firms?
Yes. Prop Firm mode is the lowest-risk mode, built to pass challenges and stay funded. Set your firm's daily and overall drawdown limits inside the EA. Turbo Gold is on by default and works with Prop Firm mode if your firm allows averaging; if it does not, switch Turbo off. Our own $50,000 real account runs Prop Firm mode in public: +20.26% since 12 Aug 2026, with a max drawdown of 3.93%.
Most firms allow EAs on their standard accounts, and members report payouts from the firms they trade. Check your firm's EA rules before you connect. We share recommendations on which firms work best in the VIP community.
