From Download to Live Trading

Getting Dark Dione running takes under thirty minutes. Here is the complete journey from downloading the free file to having it active on your live account.

Download Dark Dione for Free

Visit darkeas.com/free-eas and download the Dark Dione .ex4 file for MetaTrader 4 or the .ex5 file for MetaTrader 5. No registration, payment, or licence key is required. Optionally download the Dark Breakout indicator from the MQL5 marketplace to visualise entry signals directly on your charts during backtesting or demo trading.

Install on MetaTrader

Copy the EA file into the MQL4/Experts or MQL5/Experts folder within your MetaTrader data directory. Restart the platform and the robot will appear in the Navigator panel under Expert Advisors. Drag it onto any chart, ensure automated trading is enabled, and confirm the smiley face icon appears in the top-right corner confirming the EA is active.

Configure Your Risk Settings

Open the EA input parameters and set your magic number, maximum spread, and lot size or money management risk percentage. Select your preferred grid management mode (Fix, Lots Sum, All Lots Sum, or Martingale). Set your take profit and stop loss targets, or enable ATR-based targets for dynamic sizing. Configure which trading days and directions are permitted, and enable the monetary loss limiter as a last-resort safety net.

Test on Demo Before Going Live

Run Dark Dione on a demo account matched to your intended live balance for at least two to four weeks before committing real capital. Watch how Dark Breakout signals trigger, how grid recovery sequences develop during adverse moves, and how the average trailing stop manages the basket. MetaTrader Strategy Tester also allows historical backtesting to validate your settings configuration.

Monitor and Optimise

Once live, check the information panel weekly for open trades, current drawdown, and spread conditions. The built-in alert system notifies you if spread or latency exceed your configured thresholds. Review monthly performance to assess whether grid spacing, lot management mode, or ATR multiplier settings need adjustment. For uninterrupted 24-hour operation, consider deploying on a low-latency Windows VPS.

What Is Dark Dione and How Does It Trade?

Dark Dione is a fully automatic Expert Advisor that uses the proprietary Dark Breakout indicator to identify entry signals, watching for price to cross defined support or resistance levels and opening trades when momentum confirms the move. From there, an optional grid recovery system manages open positions, deploying additional orders at configurable intervals if the market moves against the initial entry. The EA targets medium-term trading across M5, M15, H1, and higher timeframes. It works out of the box on EURUSD, GBPUSD, XAGUSD (silver), and NZDUSD, and can be configured for other pairs including CHFJPY, which features in the published live account results on a real IC Markets MT5 account. What separates Dark Dione from generic grid systems is its intelligent first-trade logic. Every grid sequence starts with a Dark Breakout signal rather than an arbitrary interval entry, meaning the EA only initiates positions when there is a technical reason to do so. ATR-based take profit and trailing stop options add adaptability to changing volatility without manual recalibration. The money management module scales position sizing to account balance using a user-defined risk percentage, making the EA practical for accounts from $500 upward. Available completely free with no registration required, Dark Dione runs on both MT4 and MT5 through any ECN broker.

What You Get with Dark Dione

Dark Dione combines breakout-driven entry logic with a flexible grid recovery framework, giving you a technically grounded automated trading system at zero cost.

Every trade sequence starts with a Dark Breakout indicator signal rather than an arbitrary fixed interval. The EA identifies price crossing defined support or resistance levels, waiting for momentum confirmation before opening the initial position. This intelligent filtering means the grid only activates when there is a technical reason to enter, differentiating Dark Dione from generic grid systems that open positions indiscriminately.
Take profit, stop loss, and trailing stop values can be calculated dynamically using the Average True Range indicator. When ATR mode is enabled, the formula multiplies your chosen target coefficient by the ATR period value and a configurable multiplier, so targets automatically expand during volatile sessions and tighten in calm conditions. This keeps risk-reward ratios sensible across different market environments without manual recalibration.
Dark Dione offers four distinct grid management modes: Fix (equal lot sizes), Lots Sum (incrementally adding base lots), All Lots Sum (counting all open buy and sell positions), and Martingale (classic multiplier progression). Decimal coefficient values like 1.1 or 1.5 are supported, giving you granular control over how aggressively the system recovers from adverse moves. The grid can also be disabled entirely for single-trade operation.
An optional average trailing stop calculates the weighted entry point across all open buy or sell positions, then trails a stop behind this average as the basket moves in your favor. A visual yellow line displays the current trailing level directly on the chart. You can restrict activation to profit-only scenarios, ensuring the trailing stop never locks in losses. Broker commission input ensures the calculation accounts for real transaction costs.
Out-of-the-box support covers EURUSD, GBPUSD, XAGUSD (silver), and NZDUSD, with live results demonstrated on CHFJPY. Compatible timeframes span M5, M15, H1, and beyond. This versatility lets you run Dark Dione across several charts simultaneously with different configurations, building a diversified automated portfolio from a single free EA.
Spread and latency alerts block entries when execution quality deteriorates. Configurable trading days, direction filters (buy-only, sell-only, or both), and the one-trade-per-bar grid option prevent overtrading. A monetary loss limiter automatically closes all orders when a defined cash threshold is reached, with an optional stop-EA function that removes the robot from the chart after a maximum loss event.
Dark Dione has been running on a real IC Markets MT5 account since December 2025, with a published track record showing 30 wins from 33 trades. A second account on Xrading Instant Funding adds funded environment data. Both records are open for inspection rather than hidden behind backtest only marketing claims. Verified live performance from real money accounts is rare among free forex robots, and seeing how the system handles real spreads and commissions gives a more honest performance picture than simulated results alone.
Dark Dione's entry logic is built on the publicly available Dark Breakout indicator, which can be downloaded separately from the MQL5 marketplace. This means you can apply the indicator to any chart and verify exactly when entries fire, before trusting live trade execution. Most free expert advisors hide their signal logic behind closed source code; Dark Dione lets you inspect the trigger conditions visually. For traders who want to understand why a robot enters a trade rather than just trusting the output, this transparency genuinely matters.

Built For Every Trading Style

Dark Dione adapts to your experience level and trading goals, whether you are taking your first steps in automated trading or running a multi-chart algorithmic portfolio.

Complete Beginners

No coding background required. Download the free .ex4 or .ex5 file, drop it into your MetaTrader Experts folder, and attach it to a chart in under ten minutes. The default settings work immediately without adjustment. The built-in information panel displays current spread, latency, and open trade status at a glance. Start on a demo account to observe Dark Breakout signals and grid behavior before switching to live capital.

Manual Traders

You understand support and resistance already — Dark Dione formalises that logic into automated breakout entries. Disable the grid and run it as a pure breakout robot with fixed lot sizes, giving you a hands-free system that captures the moves you would otherwise trade manually. The closure-on-indicator feature closes positions when the opposite Dark Breakout signal forms, mirroring how a discretionary trader would manually exit on a reversal confirmation.

Experienced Algorithmic Traders

Every major parameter is externally adjustable without source code access. Combine grid modes with ATR targets, configure separate buy and sell trailing stops, and run simultaneous instances across multiple pairs with unique magic numbers to track performance independently. MT5 users benefit from superior backtesting and multi-currency optimisation. Custom comment fields and panel toggles make it easy to organise multi-chart deployments across a professional trading setup.

How Dark Dione Manages Your Trades

Why Traders Choose Dark Dione

There are dozens of free EAs available. Here is what makes Dark Dione worth adding to your trading setup.

Intelligent Breakout Entries, Not Blind Grid Levels
Most free grid EAs open positions at fixed price intervals with no directional logic. Dark Dione only initiates a grid sequence after the Dark Breakout indicator confirms a price level break. This means every trade basket starts with a technical reason to be in the market, improving entry timing quality compared to robots that average into positions indiscriminately regardless of market structure.
Verified Live Results on a Real Account
The published trading history comes from a real IC Markets MT5 account, not a demo simulation. The track record shows 33 trades from December 2025 with a 90.9% win rate and positive net profit. Viewing actual execution data with real spreads and commissions gives a more realistic performance picture than backtest-only claims common in free EA marketing.
Completely Free With No Hidden Costs
Dark Dione is distributed at zero cost through darkeas.com, with no subscription tier, no paid upgrade, and no broker partnership requirements. You can run it on as many demo and live accounts as you choose without licence restrictions. The developer monetises through voluntary broker affiliate links, not by charging for the software itself.
ATR-Adaptive Risk Management
Static pip targets often mismatch current volatility. Dark Dione ATR-based target mode automatically scales take profit, stop loss, and trailing stop values to the current ATR reading multiplied by your chosen coefficient. This keeps the risk-reward profile sensible across different volatility regimes without requiring manual adjustments after every major news event.
Runs on Any ECN Broker, MT4 or MT5
Dark Dione has no proprietary broker requirements or server dependencies. It operates through standard MetaTrader expert advisor infrastructure, meaning any ECN broker offering MT4 or MT5 with competitive spreads on your chosen pairs will work. The built-in spread filter blocks trades automatically when execution costs exceed your configured maximum.

Learn How to Use Dark Dione

The official Dark Dione user manual covers every input parameter in detail, including grid management modes, ATR target configuration, and the closure-on-indicator system. A video review is available on YouTube walking through the EA installation, settings, and live trading behavior. The Dark Trading Telegram channel provides ongoing community support, strategy discussions, and update announcements directly from the developer.

Dark Dione EA FAQ

Everything you need to know about Dark Dione before downloading and deploying it on your MetaTrader account.

What currency pairs and timeframes does Dark Dione trade?

Dark Dione supports EURUSD, GBPUSD, XAGUSD (silver), and NZDUSD out of the box, and can be configured for additional pairs including cross pairs like CHFJPY, which features in the verified live account, with appropriate settings adjustments. Recommended timeframes are M5, M15, and H1 for medium-term operation, though the EA runs on any timeframe with suitable parameters. Always run a Strategy Tester backtest on your chosen pair and timeframe before going live to validate performance under your broker spread conditions.

Does Dark Dione use grid or martingale strategies?

Dark Dione uses a grid recovery system configurable in four modes: Fix (equal lots throughout), Lots Sum (incremental lot addition), All Lots Sum (counts all open positions across both directions), and Martingale (classic multiplier progression). Decimal multiplier values like 1.1 and 1.5 allow gradual scaling rather than aggressive doubling. The grid can also be disabled entirely, converting it to a pure breakout EA with fixed stop losses. A monetary loss limiter provides a hard-stop safety net closing all positions when a cash threshold is reached.

What is the minimum deposit to run Dark Dione?

With grid disabled and conservative fixed lot sizing at 0.01 lots, Dark Dione can technically run on accounts from $200. Grid-enabled configurations require more margin headroom to support multiple open positions during recovery sequences. A $500 minimum is recommended for light grid use, and $1,000 or more for comfortable multi-level grid operation across active pairs. The money management feature scales lot size to a percentage of account balance, automatically adjusting position size proportionally as the account grows or shrinks.

Is Dark Dione beginner-friendly?

Installation is straightforward — download the free .ex4 or .ex5 file and attach it to a MetaTrader chart in under ten minutes with no coding required. Default settings work immediately without adjustment. That said, grid recovery logic creates temporary drawdowns during adverse market moves that can feel alarming to traders unfamiliar with position averaging. Beginners should spend at least two to four weeks observing the EA on a demo account before funding a live account, focusing on how breakout entries trigger and how grid sequences develop and recover.

Do I need a VPS to run Dark Dione?

A Virtual Private Server is strongly recommended for reliable continuous operation. Dark Dione needs MetaTrader running uninterrupted to catch Dark Breakout signals and manage open grid positions. Running on a personal computer risks missed entries or unmanaged positions during power outages, internet drops, or restarts. Low-latency Windows VPS services cost typically $15 to $40 per month. Important: if using MQL5 VPS, disable the Show Alert setting in the EA inputs, as active alerts prevent trade execution on the MQL5 virtual hosting environment.

Can I use Dark Dione with prop firm challenges?

Generally not recommended. Dark Dione grid recovery opens multiple positions in the same direction when price moves adversely, which most prop firm challenge rules classify as prohibited averaging or martingale behaviour. Disabling the grid removes the recovery mechanism that defines the strategy. Before attempting any prop firm challenge, carefully review the firm terms regarding grid EAs, position averaging, and maximum open lot restrictions. If the firm permits averaging, test in grid-disabled single-trade mode first to ensure compliance with daily loss and maximum drawdown rules.

Can I customise Dark Dione settings?

Every major parameter is externally adjustable through the standard MetaTrader input dialog. Configurable options include magic number, maximum spread, lot sizing and money management risk percentage, ATR period and multiplier for dynamic targets, grid management mode and coefficient, minimum grid distance, trading days and direction permissions, average trailing stop value and step, closure-on-indicator rules, and graphic panel display options. The EA can be optimised using MetaTrader built-in Strategy Tester optimiser. Run multiple instances on different pairs with distinct magic numbers for portfolio-level performance tracking.

How does Dark Dione compare to other breakout EAs?

Most free breakout EAs use either fixed pip targets with no grid, or grid systems with arbitrary entry intervals. Dark Dione combines both — the proprietary Dark Breakout indicator identifies high-probability breakout levels before deploying the first trade, and the grid only activates after that informed entry. Compared to manual breakout trading, the EA removes emotional interference and handles position management consistently around the clock. ATR-adaptive targets are rare in free EAs. The main limitation versus premium paid EAs is community-based Telegram support rather than dedicated customer service.

How often is Dark Dione updated?

Dark Dione is maintained by the Dark EAs developer (msolito59 on MQL5) and updated periodically with strategy refinements, bug fixes, and MetaTrader platform compatibility patches. As a free EA there is no formal update schedule — check darkeas.com and the Dark Trading Telegram channel for announcements. All updates are free with no additional charges. Always backup your current .set files containing optimised parameters before installing a new version, as updates may reset input defaults.

How much does Dark Dione cost?

Dark Dione is completely free. Download it directly from darkeas.com/free-eas with no registration, payment, or broker account requirement. There are no subscription tiers, premium features behind a paywall, or mandatory broker partnerships. The developer recommends using an ECN broker with low spreads such as RoboForex via their affiliate link, and a quality VPS, but neither is mandatory for accessing the EA itself. Unlimited demo and live account deployment is permitted across as many MetaTrader installations as you choose.

Which brokers work best with Dark Dione?

ECN brokers with raw or tight spreads are strongly recommended. On EURUSD and GBPUSD, target brokers offering spreads below 1.5 pips during London and New York sessions. For XAGUSD, spreads below 0.05 are preferable. IC Markets is confirmed working through the published live account results. RoboForex is recommended by the developer. Avoid market maker brokers with fixed spreads exceeding 2 pips on major pairs or brokers known for excessive slippage during news events, as these conditions directly impact the small pip targets the breakout entries aim for.

What drawdown levels are considered normal?

Drawdown varies significantly based on grid settings and market conditions. With grid disabled and fixed lots, maximum drawdown typically stays under 10 to 15 percent during adverse periods. With light grid enabled using Lots Sum mode and coefficient 1.0 to 1.2, expect temporary drawdowns of 15 to 25 percent during extended trends against your initial entry. More aggressive Martingale grid configurations can produce drawdowns exceeding 30 to 40 percent before recovery. Always set the monetary loss limiter as a hard cap, and never trade with funds you cannot afford to lose, particularly with grid-enabled configurations.

How does Dark Dione handle news events?

Dark Dione does not include a built-in economic calendar news filter. During high-impact news like Non-Farm Payrolls or Federal Reserve rate decisions, spreads widen significantly, which can trigger the maximum spread filter and block new entries automatically. The Forced Close Friday Night feature closes all open positions at a configured hour each Friday, preventing weekend gap exposure. For traders wanting to avoid news entirely, manually disabling the EA before major scheduled announcements and re-enabling after spreads normalise is the recommended approach.

Is Dark Dione a fully automatic expert advisor?

Yes, Dark Dione is a fully automatic expert advisor that handles signal detection, trade entry, grid management, and position closure without manual input. Once installed in MetaTrader and attached to a chart, the EA monitors the Dark Breakout indicator continuously and opens trades when signals confirm. You only configure parameters once, enable auto trading, and the system runs on its own. A VPS keeps it active through the week so you don't need to leave a home computer powered on for forex trading around the clock.

Where can I find the Dark Dione user manual or settings guide?

The complete Dark Dione user manual ships with the EA download from darkeas.com/free-eas. It covers every input parameter, the four grid modes, ATR target configuration, and the closure on indicator feature. There is no separate manual PDF or strategy guide; the user guide is bundled with the download. For setup guide help with broker specific spread thresholds or recommended ATR multipliers, the Dark Trading Telegram channel is the most active source, with experienced users sharing tested EA settings.

Are set files available for Dark Dione?

Yes, set files for Dark Dione are shared through the Dark Trading Telegram channel, often posted by users running specific pairs and timeframes. A set file is a saved parameter configuration loaded through MetaTrader EA properties window, which lets you apply a tested setup in seconds rather than configuring each input manually. Always run any community set file through your own backtesting first, because spread conditions and execution quality vary between brokers and can change how the same configuration behaves.

Does Dark Dione work on silver, gold, or other commodities?

Yes, Dark Dione works on commodities. Silver (XAGUSD) is one of the four default pairs and runs out of the box with bundled settings. Gold (XAUUSD) and other commodity CFDs offered by your broker can also be tested, though they typically need parameter adjustments to ATR multiplier, grid distance, and maximum spread because volatility differs from forex majors. Run extended backtests before any live deployment on a new instrument; default settings tuned for EURUSD or GBPUSD will not transfer directly to higher volatility markets.

Does Dark Dione support hedging mode accounts?

Yes, Dark Dione works on hedging mode MT5 accounts as well as netting accounts and standard MT4 accounts. Hedging matters when you want long and short positions open on the same pair at once, which can happen with the All Lots Sum grid mode and certain direction filter combinations. Most retail forex brokers offer hedging MT5 accounts by default. If your broker uses netting mode, opposite direction trades close each other rather than coexisting, which limits some grid configurations.

Who Is Dark Dione Designed For?

Best suited for: Intermediate forex traders familiar with breakout concepts - Dark Dione combines Dark Breakout indicator entries with optional grid recovery, rewarding traders who understand how price breakouts work and why grid systems accumulate exposure during adverse moves. A demo testing period of two to four weeks before live deployment is strongly recommended. Algorithmic portfolio builders seeking a free grid-breakout component - Running Dark Dione on EURUSD, GBPUSD, CHFJPY, and XAGUSD simultaneously creates multi-pair diversification at zero cost. Portfolio traders already running trend-following or scalping EAs can add this breakout-grid component without additional software expense. Traders with $500 to $1,000+ starting capital - The money management module scales lot sizes to account balance, but grid recovery sequences require sufficient margin headroom for multiple positions during drawdowns. Conservative operation with grid disabled can work from $200, while grid-enabled configurations benefit from $1,000+. Experienced users wanting ATR-adaptive automation - Traders who previously managed volatility-adjusted targets manually will appreciate ATR-mode automating that process. The full parameter set including grid coefficient, ATR multiplier, trading days, and closure-on-indicator provides customisation depth comparable to paid EAs. Not recommended for: Complete beginners with no risk management foundation - Grid systems accumulate open exposure during adverse moves before eventual recovery. Traders unfamiliar with how averaging works should learn grid mechanics on demo before risking capital. Traders unwilling to use a VPS - Dark Dione needs MetaTrader running continuously to catch Dark Breakout signals and manage open grid positions. Running on a personal computer with intermittent internet risks missing critical entries or leaving unmanaged positions. Prop firm challenge participants - The grid recovery methodology accumulates multiple positions in one direction, which most prop firm rules prohibit as averaging or martingale behaviour. Verify your firm rules before attempting deployment. High-spread retail broker users - Profitable operation requires spreads consistently below 2 pips on major forex pairs. Brokers regularly exceeding these levels erode the small pip targets the breakout entries aim for.

Why Traders Choose Dark Dione

Most free grid EAs open positions at fixed price intervals with no directional logic. Dark Dione only initiates a grid sequence after the Dark Breakout indicator confirms a price level break. This means every trade basket starts with a technical reason to be in the market, improving entry timing quality compared to robots that average into positions indiscriminately regardless of market structure.
