Professional trader, Software developer and strategist at Johannesburg
Professional trader, Software developer and currency strategist.

Hi there.

Allow me to introduce myself as a dedicated and skilled software developer/coder who is eager to contribute to the dynamic world of algorithmic trading. With a profound passion for creating cutting-edge solutions, I bring diverse qualifications and expertise to the table. I have been a Professional institute trader for the last 10years and 14yrs total in the markets, I have traded many instruments in my career and achieved great success. I am also the owner of Forex Mastery, a school for professional traders.

As a software developer/coder, I possess a strong foundation in multiple programming languages, including Java, C++, Python, MQL 4/5, Haskell and Neural Networks. These languages have been my trusted companions throughout my journey, enabling me to craft robust and efficient software solutions. My extensive knowledge of data structures, algorithms, and design patterns empowers me to architect reliable and scalable systems.

One of my primary areas of focus lies in the development of Expert Advisors (EAs) and indicators. Leveraging my proficiency in MQL5, I am adept at creating automated trading systems that seamlessly integrate with MetaTrader 5 (MT5). Whether implementing intricate trading strategies, optimizing performance, or ensuring real-time data analysis, I strive for excellence in every aspect of EA development.

Beyond my expertise in algorithmic trading, I have also honed my skills in other essential software development domains. From developing intuitive user interfaces to implementing robust back-end systems, I thrive in multifaceted environments. My strong understanding of software development methodologies, such as Agile and Scrum, ensures that projects are delivered efficiently, meeting both deadlines and quality standards.

I firmly believe that continuous learning is the key to staying ahead in the fast-paced world of technology. By actively exploring emerging trends and staying abreast of industry advancements, I strive to incorporate the latest techniques and best practices into my work. Additionally, my strong analytical and problem-solving abilities enable me to tackle complex challenges head-on, ensuring innovative and optimal solutions.

I am thrilled to join the MQL5 community, as it provides an excellent platform for knowledge sharing, collaboration, and growth. I look forward to engaging with fellow developers, traders, and enthusiasts, contributing my skills and expertise to foster a thriving ecosystem.

I am excited to embark on this journey with the esteemed MQL5 community.
