MQL5 Source Codes of Libraries for MetaTrader 5 - 4

icon

Libraries are small sub-programs containing a certain functionality that can then be used for developing new applications. Once written and thoroughly checked, a library allows users to speed up the development of new MQL5 applications. One of the illustrative examples is ALGLIB library containing multiple numerical analysis functions.

Library source codes can be downloaded and used in MetaEditor when developing trading strategies. They cannot be launched in MetaTrader 5 independently.

The library makes indicators' Init/Deinit synchronized

Original mathematical functions taken from different places, which either do not have analogues or perform much faster than alternative implementations

This time-series library brings lightning-fast timeseries access to MQL5 for time-sensitive applications while implementing the familiar methods of MQL4, e.g. iBarShift.

A module of trading signals based on the Moving Average indicator signal module.

The CDir class allows getting information about files and folders outside the MQL5 sandbox similar to the MS-DOS Dir command. Call of system DLL is used, therefore you should allow their use.

Instance of the class returns such values as Bid, Ask, High, Low, Close and Open prices of the current candle or any other specified in the parameters, as well as the candle opening time.

Regular expressions provide a formal language for quick and flexible processing of texts. Each regular expression is a pattern (mask), for which the regular expression engine tries to find matches in the source text. A pattern consists of one or more character literals, operators, or constructs.

Signal based on the indicator Gann Hilo.
