GDI · GOLD DATA INTELLIGENCE

How GDI works

GDI looks for the times of day when gold keeps doing the same thing after it breaks a key level. It tests every candle time on 7 timeframes, proves each idea on old AND new data and against luck, then watches the winners live and learns again every 5 minutes. It only shows setups — it never places a trade.

7 timeframes · 5 levels · every candle time

GDI reads XAUUSD from your broker's MT5 (the agent on the VPS) on seven timeframes. Faster timeframes use recent years, slower ones go back decades — as far as the broker's history goes.

What a GDI strategy looks like

An illustration (not real prices) of a strategy like "03:30 IST · M5 · close above the previous candle high → SELL". Press play.

step 0 / 5
1 · THE TIMEOnly the M5 candle that opens at 03:30 IST is checked. Other candles are ignored.
2 · THE LEVELThe level is the previous candle's high (yellow line).
3 · THE BREAKThe 03:30 candle CLOSES above that high. A close is needed — a wick alone is not a break.
4 · THE ENTRYSELL at the open of the next candle (a market order). Stop 0.8 × ATR above, TP1 1 R and TP2 3.1 R below.
5 · THE RESULTFollowed until TP1 / TP2, the stop, or the time limit. A candle that touches both stop and target counts as a LOSS.
how a strategy is proven

Passing twice — then the luck check

Scanning hundreds of thousands of ideas will always find some that look good by chance. GDI throws almost all of them away.

Every idea scannedcandle time × level × break × trade way × stop/target—
Enough past tradesat least 40 trades, and at least 15 in EACH half of the historyreal tests
Good in the older half AND the newer halfwin rate ≥ 55 % in both halves · average result above +0.05 R in both · spread includedstrong
WATCHINGgood in both halves, but not yet proven against luck · no setups — tracked as paper entriespaper only
READYalso passes the false-discovery check (Benjamini–Hochberg, 10 %): unlikely to be luck even after so many testssends setups
older half of the historyLearnIs the win rate clearly above break-even? (break-even for TP1 = R × stop is 1 ÷ (1 + R))
newer half of the historyConfirmDoes it STILL work on the newer data? A pattern that only worked long ago is dropped.

The agent sends the gold price and the forming candles to the GDI page.

When that candle closes, GDI checks the level: READY + break → setup · WATCHING + break → paper entry · no break → logged.

every 5 minutesQuick analysis

The newest candles are added and every idea is tested again: strategies are added or retired as the data changes. The page shows “ANALYSING NOW” while it runs.

02:00 ISTFull re-check

Once a night the whole history is checked again (missing years are asked from the broker again). The live record since a strategy was found is its real test.

HONEST LIMITS · GDI is research, not a promise. Win rates come from past data and spread is included, but slippage, news spikes and changing markets can make live results different. How far back GDI can look depends on your broker's MT5 history — the GDI page shows the exact years it really has. GDI shows setups only and never places a trade. Not financial advice.
