Spain · XAUUSD automation
Gold trading robot in Spain
MetHaND is an automated XAUUSD expert advisor for MetaTrader 4 and 5. Gold itself trades on one global market, but what changes in Spain is when the liquid hours fall, which brokers you can realistically use, and where to host the platform.

Gold session hours in Spain
London opens at 09:00 CET and the New York overlap runs 14:30-18:00 CET.
The robot has a trading-hours filter, so you can restrict it to the London and New York overlap instead of letting it trade thin Asian-session ranges. Set the hours in your broker's server time, not your own local time, because MetaTrader charts follow the server clock.
Choosing a broker
Traders in Spain generally work with CNMV registered and EU passported brokers. Whichever you pick, check three things before you attach the robot to a live chart: that expert advisors are allowed, the typical XAUUSD spread during the New York session, and the exact gold contract size, which differs between platforms and changes what one lot is worth.
CNMV restricts CFD advertising, so most Spanish traders come to an EA through direct research. Demo test before funding.
Hosting and latency
A Madrid or London VPS is the usual choice from Spain, but latency is measured to your broker's trade server, not to you. Ping the server from a candidate VPS before you commit to it. Running the platform on a VPS also means the robot keeps managing open positions when your own machine is off.
Getting started
- Open a MetaTrader 4 or 5 account with a broker available in Spain.
- Set up a Madrid or London VPS and install MetaTrader on it.
- Install MetHaND, then run it on a demo account first to confirm spreads and fills.
- Set the risk, lot and trading-hours parameters to match your account size.
- Move to live trading with the smallest lot size you are comfortable with.
FAQ
Can I use an XAUUSD expert advisor in Spain?
Yes, as long as your broker allows expert advisors on MetaTrader 4 or 5 and you comply with the rules that apply to you locally. Most traders in Spain use CNMV registered and EU passported brokers.
Which VPS region should I choose in Spain?
Pick the region closest to your broker's trade server rather than to your own home. For Spain, Madrid or London is usually the shortest hop.
Does the robot need my computer to stay on?
MetaTrader has to stay connected for the robot to manage open positions. A VPS keeps it running around the clock without depending on your own machine or internet connection.
