      <title>Telegram gold signals this week: results to Oct 30</title>
      <dc:creator>XAU AUDIT</dc:creator>
      <pubDate>Mon, 02 Nov 2026 13:05:53 +0000</pubDate>
      <link>https://dev.to/xauaudit/telegram-gold-signals-this-week-results-to-oct-30-3jl1</link>
      <guid>https://dev.to/xauaudit/telegram-gold-signals-this-week-results-to-oct-30-3jl1</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;From October 24 to October 30, we executed 3,629 signals from 405 Telegram gold channels at the broker. More channels made money than lost it, but all of them together still finished the week at −€13,308.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As always, figures are in euro at 0.1 lot per order on a MetaTrader 5 demo account. Each signal became one or more orders, 16,127 in total this week. Our &lt;a href="https://xauaudit.com/methodology" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;methodology&lt;/a&gt; page explains how we do it.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Telegram gold signals this week, day by day
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Mon Oct 26:&lt;/strong&gt; +€28,310&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Tue Oct 27:&lt;/strong&gt; −€44,466&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Wed Oct 28:&lt;/strong&gt; +€38,360&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Thu Oct 29:&lt;/strong&gt; +€3,916&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Fri Oct 30:&lt;/strong&gt; −€39,428&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Three days ended in profit and two in loss. The two losing days added up to −€83,894, more than the +€70,586 from the three winning days. A good Monday and a good Wednesday did not cover Tuesday and Friday.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Gold futures closed at $4,007.9 on October 23 and rose to $4,074.6 on October 27, the high of the week. That was also our worst day. Gold then slipped back to $4,031.4 by Thursday and closed Friday at $3,898.9. That is $132.5 down in one day and $109.0 down over the week.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Gold signals weekly results by channel and session
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;211 channels made money and 194 lost it. Counting by signal, 1,611 signals closed with every order in profit (about 44%) and 740 closed with every order in loss (about 20%). The rest were mixed. Winners outnumbered losers, but the losses were bigger.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The sessions show where the money went:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Roughly, New York signals lost about €62,700, while Asia and London together made about €49,400. Since September 7, all three sessions have a negative average per signal, so this week's positive Asia and London numbers are the exception.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Best and worst channels of the week
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Among channels with at least 5 signals, the best were &lt;strong&gt;X•••&lt;/strong&gt; (11 signals, +€4,474), &lt;strong&gt;G•••&lt;/strong&gt; (15 signals, +€3,148) and &lt;strong&gt;S••• K••• O•••&lt;/strong&gt; (8 signals, +€3,135). The worst were &lt;strong&gt;G••• V••• S•••&lt;/strong&gt; (11 signals, −€8,638), &lt;strong&gt;F••• G••• S•••&lt;/strong&gt; (8 signals, −€4,661) and &lt;strong&gt;S••• G••• P•••&lt;/strong&gt; (19 signals, −€3,701). S••• G••• P••• is also the biggest loser in our current overall loss ranking (−€3,634 over 45 signals).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A good week tells you nothing about the next one. The 20 best channels of September made +€70,688 that month and are at −€18,932 so far in October (month in progress), with 15 of the 20 losing money. More on that in &lt;a href="https://xauaudit.com/blog/last-months-winners/" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;last month's winners don't stay winners&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  The bigger picture
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Since September 7 we have followed 863 channels and executed 17,997 signals. All of them together are at &lt;strong&gt;−€334,277&lt;/strong&gt;. Of the 599 channels with at least 10 signals, 372 are losing money, and the median channel is at −€407. This week's −€13,308 is a small part of that total. In the same period, 27 of the 40 trading days ended in loss.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>XAUUSD trading strategy on Telegram is not a track record</title>
      <dc:creator>XAU AUDIT</dc:creator>
      <pubDate>Sat, 31 Oct 2026 13:05:56 +0000</pubDate>
      <link>https://dev.to/xauaudit/xauusd-trading-strategy-on-telegram-is-not-a-track-record-998</link>
      <guid>https://dev.to/xauaudit/xauusd-trading-strategy-on-telegram-is-not-a-track-record-998</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;A Telegram channel can post a clean, confident XAUUSD trading strategy every morning. None of it tells you what happens when those signals are actually executed. A track record does.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  What a posted XAUUSD trading strategy leaves out
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A strategy post is a description: entry zone, stop, a few take-profit levels, maybe a chart. It shows intent, not outcome. It doesn't say which orders were filled, at what price, or how the losers were counted. A screenshot of the trades that worked is not a record of all of them.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;That's why we don't read strategies. We execute them. From 2026-09-07 to 2026-10-30 we followed &lt;strong&gt;862&lt;/strong&gt; Telegram gold channels and sent every signal to a broker on a MetaTrader 5 demo account: &lt;strong&gt;17,991&lt;/strong&gt; signals, &lt;strong&gt;84,573&lt;/strong&gt; orders. All money figures below are in euro, at 0.1 lot per order, on that demo account. See the &lt;a href="https://xauaudit.com/methodology" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;methodology&lt;/a&gt; for how each signal is parsed and placed.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  What the broker data shows about gold strategy channels
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Of the &lt;strong&gt;599&lt;/strong&gt; channels that posted at least 10 signals, &lt;strong&gt;372&lt;/strong&gt; ended in a loss and &lt;strong&gt;227&lt;/strong&gt; in profit, so about 62% lost money. Across all channels, only 13 of 40 trading days closed positive; the worst single day was &lt;strong&gt;−€69,536&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Timing claims don't hold up much better. Signals sent during the Asia session averaged &lt;strong&gt;−€22.4&lt;/strong&gt; each, London &lt;strong&gt;−€7.8&lt;/strong&gt;, New York &lt;strong&gt;−€23.1&lt;/strong&gt;. No session was positive on average.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Win counts can mislead too. The channel S••• G••• P••• posted 43 signals: 22 wins, 4 losses and 17 other outcomes. Together they still added up to &lt;strong&gt;−€3,567&lt;/strong&gt;. Counting wins is not the same as counting money. We covered this in &lt;a href="https://xauaudit.com/blog/win-rate-is-not-a-result/" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;A high win rate is not a result&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Even real winners are a snapshot
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Some channels do show a profit right now. F••• V••• S••• is at &lt;strong&gt;+€10,988&lt;/strong&gt; on 37 signals, and X••• at &lt;strong&gt;+€10,474&lt;/strong&gt; on 28. Those are measured results, not posted claims. But they cover a short window, and past results don't predict what a channel does next.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The data backs that up. The 20 best channels of September made &lt;strong&gt;+€70,688&lt;/strong&gt; combined that month. In October, still in progress, the same 20 are at &lt;strong&gt;−€18,932&lt;/strong&gt;, and 15 of the 20 are losing. That's a swing of €89,620 between two months for the same group.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Are Telegram gold signals legit? Ask for the record
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The useful question isn't "is the strategy good?" but "what happened when every signal was executed, losers included?" A channel's own posts can't answer that. Independent execution at a broker can.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;You can see how the rankings are built on the &lt;a href="https://xauaudit.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;XAU Audit home page&lt;/a&gt;. It shows results, not recommendations: what you do with them is your call.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Telegram gold signals this week: results to Oct 28</title>
      <dc:creator>XAU AUDIT</dc:creator>
      <pubDate>Fri, 30 Oct 2026 13:03:49 +0000</pubDate>
      <link>https://dev.to/xauaudit/telegram-gold-signals-this-week-results-to-oct-28-5bb7</link>
      <guid>https://dev.to/xauaudit/telegram-gold-signals-this-week-results-to-oct-28-5bb7</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;From October 22 to October 28, we executed 3,208 signals from 406 Telegram gold channels. Fully winning signals outnumbered fully losing ones by about two to one. The week still closed at &lt;strong&gt;−€10,311&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Telegram gold signals this week, day by day
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;All money figures are in euro, at 0.1 lot per order, on a MetaTrader 5 demo account. The 3,208 signals turned into 14,162 orders.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Oct 22:&lt;/strong&gt; −€34,356&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Oct 23:&lt;/strong&gt; +€8,230&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Oct 26:&lt;/strong&gt; +€29,151&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Oct 27:&lt;/strong&gt; −€44,199&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Oct 28:&lt;/strong&gt; +€30,863&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Three of the five days were positive, and they added up to +€68,244. The two negative days came to −€78,555. Gold futures closed at $4,150 on October 21, the day before the week started. They closed at $4,060.4 on Oct 22, $4,007.9 on Oct 23, $4,038.4 on Oct 26, $4,074.6 on Oct 27 and $4,051.6 on Oct 28. That is a drop of $98.4 per ounce over the week.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  More winning signals, still a losing week
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;1,444 signals closed with every order in profit, and 676 closed with every order in loss. On a count of wins, that looks like a good week. On money, it wasn't, because the size of the losses mattered more than how often they happened. We covered the same trap in &lt;a href="https://xauaudit.com/blog/win-rate-is-not-a-result/" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;a high win rate is not a result&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The split by channel was almost even: 200 channels finished in profit and 206 in loss.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Sessions: New York did the damage
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The Asia session averaged +€15.3 per signal over 1,557 signals, and London averaged +€12.9 over 829. New York averaged −€54.5 over 822 signals. That is 822 × −€54.5, roughly −€44,800, which outweighed the other two sessions combined. Asia's positive average breaks with its record since September 7, where it averages −€23.5 per signal.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Best and worst channels of the week (min. 5 signals)
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;G•••&lt;/strong&gt;: 17 signals, +€4,744&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;X•••&lt;/strong&gt;: 11 signals, +€4,683&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;X••• E••• T•••&lt;/strong&gt;: 15 signals, +€3,901&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;G••• V••• S•••&lt;/strong&gt;: 9 signals, −€5,873&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;G••• N••• F•••&lt;/strong&gt;: 7 signals, −€3,517&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;T••• W••• U•••&lt;/strong&gt;: 9 signals, −€3,363&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Five to seventeen signals is a small sample. One good week says little about the next one. Of the 20 best channels of September, 14 were in loss in October so far.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  The bigger picture
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Since September 7 we have followed 841 channels, and all of them together come to &lt;strong&gt;−€305,155&lt;/strong&gt;. Of the 561 channels with at least 10 signals, 341 are in loss. This week's −€10,311 fits that pattern rather than breaking it.

      <title>Gold signals weekly results: week to Oct 23, 2026</title>
      <dc:creator>XAU AUDIT</dc:creator>
      <pubDate>Tue, 27 Oct 2026 18:45:56 +0000</pubDate>
      <link>https://dev.to/xauaudit/gold-signals-weekly-results-week-to-oct-23-2026-3dg3</link>
      <guid>https://dev.to/xauaudit/gold-signals-weekly-results-week-to-oct-23-2026-3dg3</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;On our account, Telegram gold channels finished the week of 19–23 October slightly up: +€3,977 across 3,025 signals. That small total hides a week that swung hard in both directions.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;All money figures are in euro, at 0.1 lot per order, on a MetaTrader 5 demo account where every signal is executed. The full process is on the &lt;a href="https://xauaudit.com/methodology" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;methodology&lt;/a&gt; page.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Gold signals weekly results, day by day
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Monday 19 October:&lt;/strong&gt; −€7,865&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Tuesday 20 October:&lt;/strong&gt; +€29,289&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Wednesday 21 October:&lt;/strong&gt; +€8,679&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Thursday 22 October:&lt;/strong&gt; −€34,356&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Friday 23 October:&lt;/strong&gt; +€8,230&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Three of the five days were positive, but two days decided the week. Tuesday was the best day at +€29,289. Thursday lost more than that on its own: −€34,356. Without Tuesday, the week would have closed at −€25,312.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  What gold futures did
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Gold futures closed at $4,181.1 on Friday 16 October and at $4,007.9 a week later. That is down $173.2, or about 4.1%. Four of the five days closed lower. The only higher close was Wednesday 21 October, up $7.4 to $4,150.0. The largest daily drop came on Thursday 22 October, −$89.6 to $4,060.4, which was also the channels' worst day. Friday took off another $52.5.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Channels and sessions this week
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;354 channels were active. 179 ended the week in profit and 175 in loss, close to an even split. Out of 3,025 signals, 1,386 closed with every order in profit and 577 closed with every order in loss. The other 1,062 ended somewhere in between.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Asia:&lt;/strong&gt; −€1.5 average per signal, 1,635 signals&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;London:&lt;/strong&gt; +€16.9 average per signal, 749 signals&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;New York:&lt;/strong&gt; −€9.6 average per signal, 641 signals&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Among channels with at least 5 signals, the best were X••• (+€4,847 on 12 signals), G••• T••• A••• (+€4,664 on 6) and G••• (+€3,688 on 19). The worst were X••• P••• H••• (−€5,707 on 12), H••• (−€5,564 on 19) and G••• V••• S••• (−€3,625 on 8).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A good week says little about the next one. The 20 best channels of September made +€70,688 together that month; so far in October (month still in progress) the same group is at −€7,139, and 11 of the 20 are in loss.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  The week in context
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A small positive week doesn't change the bigger picture. From 7 September to 23 October we followed 752 channels and executed 14,368 signals, for a combined result of &lt;strong&gt;−€320,969&lt;/strong&gt;. Only 10 of the 35 trading days were positive. Among channels with at least 10 signals, 311 are in loss and 179 in profit, and the median result is −€430.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Every figure here is a past result on a demo account and does not predict what any channel will do next. More numbers and the full rankings are on the &lt;a href="https://xauaudit.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;home page&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
