Articles with examples of trading robots developed in MQL5

This article presents a practical debugging workflow with MetaEditor's integrated AI Assistant and a comparison to the previous external approach. We fix a controlled set of syntax and API errors in a D1 PriceMarker EA, inspect modifications, and recompile. The result is validated in the Strategy Tester, with clear boundaries between compilation success and required runtime checks.

This article presents an exception-like model for MQL5 that prevents VM faults through defensive guards and cooperative TRY/CATCH/FINALLY macros. It introduces structured error objects (CException), result propagation (CResult), manual stack tracing, and integrated logging for clear diagnostics. Readers learn how to validate risky operations, propagate failures predictably, and keep EAs stable when facing zero‑divide, null access, invalid handles, and array‑bounds conditions.

In our interpretation, S3CE-Net skillfully translates the market into the language of events and captures early impulses that traditional indicators simply average out. STFS ensures robust training — the model sees the data from different perspectives and does not overfit to local anomalies. SSAM blocks and the OpenCL implementation deliver practical speed and accuracy, while the separation between training and deployment modes saves resources in production.

The article presents the comprehensive architecture of the STE-FlowNet encoder, which combines stack memory, recurrent processing, and a correlation mechanism to extract hidden market dependencies. The article demonstrates how these modules are sequentially integrated into a single computational chain capable of performing comprehensive time-series analysis.

In this article, theory meets practice. We implement the key modules of the TMA framework — MPE and MPA. Here, data takes on meaning, and cross-attention becomes a tool for precise analysis of market dynamics. Minimal unnecessary operations, maximum efficiency — a step toward next-generation intelligent trading.

This part turns stored account references into a financial monitoring engine for MetaTrader 5. It calculates daily drawdown from the confirmed session balance, overall drawdown from the initial challenge balance with a static equity floor, and profit‑target progress from realized balance. The EA derives usage, remaining allowance, and status for each rule, then aggregates them into a single guard state where risk conditions override target completion.

The article develops a volume-change strategy that transforms tick or real volume with Ln(volume+1), differences it bar to bar, and applies arctan to produce a bounded, scale‑independent signal. A threshold drives entries, with selectable gates for positive, negative, or bi‑directional signals and candle‑based confirmation. An MQL5 Expert Advisor implements the logic and supports fixed TP/SL, N‑candle exits, or both, enabling straightforward testing and deployment.

The TMA framework offers a new perspective on market dynamics, enabling models to capture not only the state of the market but also the passage of time itself. Its ability to identify patterns in a continuous stream of data makes the analysis more in-depth and accurate than with traditional approaches. Recurrent adaptation turns this method into a practical tool for working with real-world quotes.

The article discusses the adaptation of the EV-MGRFlowNet architecture — originally developed for processing event-based video data — to the field of financial time series. The approach presented here offers a new perspective on the market as a stream of micro-movements, where price, volume, and liquidity form a dynamic structure that lends itself to recurrent analysis without explicit supervision.

Most EAs trade more than one setup, yet the Strategy Tester judges them all by a single equity curve. CSetupLedger is a small MQL5 class that stores each trade's setup in its magic number and rebuilds the per-setup record from the account's deal history, so a restart never wipes it. It compares a Wilson interval of each setup's win rate with the breakeven rate implied by that setup's own average win and loss, and gives no verdict before 30 closed trades. Each setup ends up trusted, rejected or still undecided. In two backtests the per-setup totals match the tester exactly. Full source and two working EAs are attached.

Introducing the TMA framework — an intelligent system capable of forecasting market dynamics with sufficient accuracy. In this article, we have integrated all the components into a single architecture and transformed it into a fully-fledged trading agent that analyzes the market and makes decisions in real time.

The article introduces a centralized cache that serves indicators to multiple strategy nodes. It encodes full indicator identity in keys, stores Standard Library objects in CArrayObj entries, reuses matching instances, verifies readiness, refreshes data, and deletes each indicator on final release. Readers gain a predictable resource lifecycle and reduced duplication in multi‑symbol Expert Advisors.

This part extends the news filter with an ordered tier scale that adds a special tier above the broker's High, per‑event time windows, and one classifier shared by live calendar data and historical CSV. A rule table (with optional CSV overrides) promotes or demotes specific releases and can set custom windows. A diagnostic script prints your broker's calendar, event codes, and server time so your rules match what the terminal actually reports.

The article takes readers deep into the heart of the EV-MGRFlowNet framework, showing how its architecture is applied in a practical implementation for financial forecasting tasks. Step by step, we build a carefully designed combination of modules capable of detecting subtle temporal patterns and translating them into meaningful market signals.

The implementation of the EV-MGRFlowNet framework demonstrates its key advantages: modularity, resilience to market fluctuations, and the ability to develop strategies independently. These features make the framework a powerful tool for analysis, forecasting, and the development of autonomous trading strategies.

Oscillator thresholds are often treated as direct reversal instructions, causing traders to sell strong bullish markets or buy persistent bearish declines too early. We develop an analytical Expert Advisor that interprets Relative Strength Index events through confirmed swing structure. The model distinguishes continuation, reversal, pending, and expired conditions by combining closed-bar RSI crossings with higher highs, higher lows, lower highs, lower lows, and breaks of structure. It displays each validated interpretation without placing trades.

The article presents an adaptation of the SDformerFlow spiking architecture for the task of dense analysis of price micro-movements. The spatio-temporal structure provides a high level of detail, while the spiking logic ensures computational efficiency and the ability to work with sparse, pulse-like data. As a result, traders gain access to a tool that detects even the slightest shifts in liquidity and provides the foundation for more accurate and consistent real-time decisions.

The article presents an adaptation of the SDformerFlow framework that achieves high adaptability by integrating spiking attention with multi-window convolution and weighted summation of query elements. The architecture allows each attention head to learn its own parameters, which improves the model's accuracy and sensitivity to the structure of the data being analyzed.
