Articles with MQL5 programming examples

In this article we continue the development of the connexus library. In this chapter we build the CHttpClient class responsible for sending a request and receiving an order. We also cover the concept of mocks, leaving the library decoupled from the WebRequest function, which allows greater flexibility for users.

The present article contains Weekly Reports of the ATC 2007. These materials are like snapshots, they are interesting-to-read not only during the Championship, but years later as well.

Self-supervised learning is a powerful paradigm of statistical learning that searches for supervisory signals generated from the observations themselves. This approach reframes challenging unsupervised learning problems into more familiar supervised ones. This technology has overlooked applications for our objective as a community of algorithmic traders. Our discussion, therefore, aims to give the reader an approachable bridge into the open research area of self-supervised learning and offers practical applications that provide robust and reliable statistical models of financial markets without overfitting to small datasets.

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.

In this article, I will explain how Chart Trade, together with the Expert Advisor, will process a request to close all of the users' open positions. This may sound simple, but there are a few complications that you need to know how to manage.

This article demonstrates how to automatically identify potentially profitable trading strategies using MetaTrader 5. White-box solutions, powered by unsupervised matrix factorization, are faster to configure, more interpretable, and provide clear guidance on which strategies to retain. Black-box solutions, while more time-consuming, are better suited for complex market conditions that white-box approaches may not capture. Join us as we discuss how our trading strategies can help us carefully identify profitable strategies under any circumstance.

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.

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.

This article presents a unique experiment that aims to examine the behavior of population optimization algorithms in the context of their ability to efficiently escape local minima when population diversity is low and reach global maxima. Working in this direction will provide further insight into which specific algorithms can successfully continue their search using coordinates set by the user as a starting point, and what factors influence their success.

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.
