Discipline, engineered.

What it is
Goldsmith trades gold (XAU/USD) on your own Vantage account, automatically. Two systems share the account, and they work on different clocks.
Patient. Positions run for hours.
Fast. Positions close within minutes.
The two rarely struggle together. Across eleven months, The Anvil and The Hammer never lost money in the same month. When one had a losing month, the other made money.
Performance
How Goldsmith would have performed on Vantage's recorded prices and spreads, 1 Nov 2025 – 23 Sep 2026.
Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Month by month, both systems on one account (%)
The deepest fall came in February 2026, when the account sat 16.7% below its high before it recovered. Expect losing weeks.
How much you need
Your broker's smallest trade size is 0.01 lots. A smaller account sits on that floor for longer, so each trade takes a larger bite of it than planned and the balance swings harder in both directions.
Deposit bonus
Fund your account first and the bonus is gone.
New Vantage clients get a bonus on their first-ever deposit. Using the offer on Vantage's website in September 2026, $1,000 earns 150%, so Vantage adds $1,500 of credit and you start with a $2,500 trading balance. Anything above that first $1,000 earns 25%. Existing Vantage clients get the smaller rate on new deposits.
The percentage depends on your country and changes over time, so check your Promotions tab before you fund. The bonus is trading credit: you cannot withdraw it, and a withdrawal removes a matching share of it. Profits you make are yours. Vantage's terms apply and the offer is not available in every country.
What it costs
You pay your broker its normal spread, and on some accounts a commission, on each trade. That is the same cost you would pay trading on your own. We receive a small rebate from the broker's side. It never comes out of your deposit or your profits.
How to join
Use vigco.co/la-com-inv/T6AZv5gk. You must register through it. Already with Vantage? Open Profile in your client portal and complete the Transfer IB form, choosing IB number 24007801.
Upload a passport or driving licence and a proof of address, such as a utility bill. Vantage usually approves the same day.
Signing up does not create one on its own. Go to Accounts, then Open account. Choose MT4 or MT5, account type STP, and leverage 500:1.
Open Promotions and opt in before you deposit. Skip this and you lose it.
At least $1,000, ideally $2,000 or more, and only money you can afford to put at risk.
