Neutral
Not a broker feed. The live product streams the subscribed book; this panel only shows the shape of the desk.
PLATFORM
Four rooms. One gold book.
Built for people who already trade XAUUSD and want the research, the risk number, and the order path in the same place — without pretending a retail MT5 feed is an exchange.
02
Microstructure
Order-book imbalance, volume-at-price, and time-and-sales — only as deep as each MT5 broker actually publishes, and labeled when a figure is an estimate.
03
Risk
Parametric VaR and expected shortfall tuned to gold’s tails, plus a shock view for yield-curve and geopolitical moves.
04
Execution
Signals may be computed anywhere. Every broker order is placed by a native MQL5 Expert Advisor on its own MetaTrader 5 session.
QUANTITATIVE MATH
Signals you can read back.
Every published signal carries the expression that produced it. The dashboard draws the same series: price, a short-horizon VWAP, imbalance, and a regime tag.
Order book imbalance
OBI = (BidQty − AskQty) / (BidQty + AskQty)
Near +1 is bid pressure. Near −1 is offer pressure. Depth is whatever the broker book actually shows.
Microstructural VWAP
Σ (Price × Volume) / Σ Volume
A rolling sub-minute anchor, drawn on the chart, not a session VWAP dressed up as one.
Z-score reversion
z = (Price − Anchor) / σ
Distance from the micro anchor, used for statistical-arbitrage candidates.
Expected shortfall
ES = E[Loss | Loss > VaR]
Tail loss beyond a parametric VaR, calibrated to gold rather than an equity template.
What the desk draws
- Multi-timeframe XAUUSD price, updated over a persistent socket.
- Order-book heatmap and cumulative volume delta where the feed supports them.
- OBI sparkline, yield and DXY bias, VaR, and a signal tape with the formula beside the call.
- Rendering held to a display frame rate. The calculations themselves are not throttled to the screen.
SUBSCRIPTIONS

Operating notes
The public promise stops where a retail gold feed stops. These are product rules, not footnotes.
- 01True Level 3 is not assumed. Book analytics follow the depth each retail MT5 broker supplies.
- 02Aggressive delta is shown as a trade only when the feed is a trade. Quote ticks stay labeled as estimates.
- 03A slippage setting is a request, not a fill guarantee. It follows the broker’s execution mode.
- 04Commissions are reconciled from completed deals. They are not copied from one broker to another.
- 05Sub-2 ms is an internal analytics budget. It is not an end-to-end execution promise.
- 06Each broker account is its own MT5 session. The platform coordinates them so the same idea is not fired twice.
Questions
Is this a signal room or an execution platform?
Both, with a hard split. Research, charts, and signals live in the platform. Orders that touch a broker are sent only by an MQL5 Expert Advisor inside MetaTrader 5.
Which symbol?
XAUUSD, plus the gold symbol alias each broker actually uses. The desk is built around spot gold’s macro drivers — real yields, the dollar, and risk regime — not a generic FX template.
What do the three prices buy?
Basic is $49, Professional is $99, Institutional is $199, each per month. The license gates charts, signal depth, history, risk, multi-broker views, and API rate. An expired plan drops premium modules without stranding the basic view.
Can I run several brokers?
Yes, on the Institutional plan. Each account stays on its own terminal. A coordinator blocks duplicate orders and shows net exposure before you add to it.
