Spezifikation
Description
We are developing TBM Lightening, a high-performance algorithmic trading system built on MetaTrader 5.
The goal is to achieve institutional-level execution speed and adaptive intelligence using premium data feeds such as Refinitiv Eikon and RANsquawk, routed via FIX API.
We already have our core trading logic; we now need an expert-level MQL5 developer who can translate that logic into an optimized, production-ready engine.
Responsibilities
-
Build a fully functional MT5 Expert Advisor implementing provided trade logic.
-
Integrate external data feeds via API (Eikon/RANsquawk).
-
Optimize for ultra-low latency (< 50 ms preferred) and high fill-rate accuracy.
-
Design modular, well-documented code with adjustable parameters.
-
Conduct live latency and slippage testing.
-
Provide full source code, documentation, and test reports.
Required Skills
-
Expert-level MQL5 programming
-
Low-latency optimization and multi-threaded event handling in MT5
-
FIX API integration experience
-
External API / data-feed integration (JSON/XML, WebSocket, etc.)
-
Advanced backtesting and optimization
-
Risk-management logic (drawdown limits, equity protection, trade suspension)
-
Statistics & mathematics for strategy modeling
-
Familiarity with Forex markets
-
Clean documentation and version control discipline (Git preferred)
Nice to Have
-
Experience with prop-firm / institutional-grade bots
-
Familiarity with Linux environments for low-latency deployment
-
Understanding of data mining / machine-learning techniques
Deliverables
-
Compiled EA + complete source code (.mq5)
-
Integration of Eikon or alternate feed for external data input
-
Live testing results + latency benchmark
-
Clear setup documentation
Budget: Flexible for the right developer
Timeline: 2 – 4 weeks
Work Type: Freelance / Remote
Communication: All via MQL5 platform (escrow protected)
Only apply if you have verifiable experience building high-performance, low-latency MT5 systems or FIX-based execution engines.
