MQL4 and MQL5 Programming Articles

The article is devoted to the metaheuristic Atmosphere Clouds Model Optimization (ACMO) algorithm, which simulates the behavior of clouds to solve optimization problems. The algorithm uses the principles of cloud generation, movement and propagation, adapting to the "weather conditions" in the solution space. The article reveals how the algorithm's meteorological simulation finds optimal solutions in a complex possibility space and describes in detail the stages of ACMO operation, including "sky" preparation, cloud birth, cloud movement, and rain concentration.

In this article, we will explore the innovative Chimera framework: a two-dimensional state-space model that uses neural networks to analyze multivariate time series. This method offers high accuracy with low computational cost, outperforming traditional approaches and Transformer architectures.

In this article, we will explore how to easily create and implement an operational approach for coloring candles. This concept is highly valued by traders. When implementing such things, care must be taken to ensure that the bars or candles retain their original appearance and do not hinder reading candle by candle.

This article contains Weekly Reports of the ATC 2006. These materials are like snapshots, they are interesting-to-read not only during the Championship, but years later as well.

We continue dwelling on the topic of social behavior of living organisms and its impact on the development of a new mathematical model - ASBO (Adaptive Social Behavior Optimization). We will dive into the two-phase evolution, test the algorithm and draw conclusions. Just as in nature a group of living organisms join their efforts to survive, ASBO uses principles of collective behavior to solve complex optimization problems.

The article considers methods of encoding initial data in hyperbolic latent space through anisotropic diffusion processes. This helps to more accurately preserve the topological characteristics of the current market situation and improves the quality of its analysis.

In this article, we will continue diving into the implementation of the ACMO (Atmospheric Cloud Model Optimization) algorithm. In particular, we will discuss two key aspects: the movement of clouds into low-pressure regions and the rain simulation, including the initialization of droplets and their distribution among clouds. We will also look at other methods that play an important role in managing the state of clouds and ensuring their interaction with the environment.

This article shows how to simplify complex MQL5 file operations by building a Python-style interface for effortless reading and writing. It explains how to recreate Python’s intuitive file-handling patterns through custom functions and classes. The result is a cleaner, more reliable approach to MQL5 file I/O.

This article is the fifth part of a series describing our development steps of a native MQL5 client for the MQTT 5.0 protocol. In this part we describe the structure of PUBLISH packets, how we are setting their Publish Flags, encoding Topic Name(s) strings, and setting Packet Identifier(s) when required.

Learn how to add “Sign in with MQL5” to your Android app using the OAuth 2.0 authorization code flow. The guide covers app registration, endpoints, redirect URI, Custom Tabs, deep-link handling, and a PHP backend that exchanges the code for an access token over HTTPS. You will authenticate real MQL5 users and access profile data such as rank and reputation.

An in-depth walkthrough of building a Larry Williams inspired volatility breakout Expert Advisor in MQL5, combining swing structure, volatility-based entries, trade day of the week filtering, time filters, and flexible risk management, with a complete implementation and reproducible test setup.

We created a log suppression system in the Logify library. It details how the CLogifySuppression class reduces console noise by applying configurable rules to avoid repetitive or irrelevant messages. We also cover the external configuration framework, validation mechanisms, and comprehensive testing to ensure robustness and flexibility in log capture during bot or indicator development.

If everything seemed right to you up to this point, it means you're not really thinking about the long term, when you start developing applications. Over time you will no longer need to program new applications, you will just have to make them work together. So let's see how to finish assembling the mouse indicator.

This article shows how to drastically simplify the use of the Logify library with the Builder pattern and automatic default configurations. It explains the structure of the specialized builders, how to use them with smart auto-completion, and how to ensure a functional log even without manual configuration. It also covers tweaks for MetaTrader 5 build 5100.

This article demonstrates how to integrate the Google Generative AI API with MetaTrader 5 using MQL5. You will learn how to structure API requests, handle server responses, extract AI-generated content, manage rate limits, and save the results to a text file for easy access.
