Articles on the MQL5 programming and use of trading robots

Successfully employing algorithmic trading requires continuous, interdisciplinary learning. However, the infinite range of possibilities can consume years of effort without yielding tangible results. To address this, we propose a framework that gradually introduces complexity, allowing traders to refine their strategies iteratively rather than committing indefinite time to uncertain outcomes.

Smart Money Concept (Break Of Structure) coupled with the RSI Indicator to make informed automated trading decisions based on the market structure.

An inverse fair value gap(IFVG) occurs when price returns to a previously identified fair value gap and, instead of showing the expected supportive or resistive reaction, fails to respect it. This failure can signal a potential shift in market direction and offer a contrarian trading edge. In this article, I'm going to introduce my self-developed approach to quantifying and utilizing inverse fair value gap as a strategy for MetaTrader 5 expert advisors.

In this article, we implement an adaptive Linear Regression Channel system in MQL5 that automatically calculates the regression line and standard deviation channel over a user-defined period, only activates when the slope exceeds a minimum threshold to confirm a clear trend, and dynamically recreates or extends the channel when the price breaks out by a configurable percentage of channel width.

In this article, we develop an Expert Advisor in MQL5 for the Trend Flat Momentum Strategy. We combine a two moving averages crossover with RSI and CCI momentum filters to generate trade signals. We also cover backtesting and potential enhancements for real-world performance.

This article provides a continuation to the brute force topic, and it introduces new opportunities for market analysis into the program algorithm, thereby accelerating the speed of analysis and improving the quality of results. New additions enable the highest-quality view of global patterns within this approach.

This article outlines the steps to create an Expert Advisor (EA) that capitalizes on price breakouts after consolidation periods. By identifying consolidation ranges and setting breakout levels, traders can automate their trading decisions based on this strategy. The Expert Advisor aims to provide clear entry and exit points while avoiding false breakouts

In this article, we automate the Midnight Range Breakout with Break of Structure strategy in MQL5, detailing code for breakout detection and trade execution. We define precise risk parameters for entries, stops, and profits. Backtesting and optimization are included for practical trading.

Any Program in any programming language has a specific structure. In this article, you will learn essential parts of the MQL5 program structure by understanding the programming basics of every part of the MQL5 program structure that can be very helpful when creating our MQL5 trading system or trading tool that can be executable in the MetaTrader 5.

Finally, the visual system will start working, although it will not yet be completed. Here we will finish making the main changes. There will be quite a few of them, but they are all necessary. Well, the whole work will be quite interesting.

In this article, we create a Zone Recovery RSI EA System in MQL5, using RSI signals to trigger trades and a recovery strategy to manage losses. We implement a "ZoneRecovery" class to automate trade entries, recovery logic, and position management. The article concludes with backtesting insights to optimize performance and enhance the EA’s effectiveness.

In this article, we examine the Profitunity System by Bill Williams, breaking down its core components and unique approach to trading within market chaos. We guide readers through implementing the system in MQL5, focusing on automating key indicators and entry/exit signals. Finally, we test and optimize the strategy, providing insights into its performance across various market scenarios.

In my previous articles, I have explained how to create an indicator with multiple subwindows, which becomes interesting when using custom indicators. This time we will see how to add multiple windows to an Expert Advisor.

In this article, we automate the Head and Shoulders pattern in MQL5. We analyze its architecture, implement an EA to detect and trade it, and backtest the results. The process reveals a practical trading algorithm with room for refinement.

Welcome to a new article in our series about learning how to design a trading system by the most popular technical indicator as we will learn in this article about a new technical indicator and how we can design a trading system by it and this indicator is the Bull's Power indicator.

We have previously considered various types of neural networks along with their implementations. In all cases, the neural networks were trained using the gradient decent method, for which we need to choose a learning rate. In this article, I want to show the importance of a correctly selected rate and its impact on the neural network training, using examples.

In this article, we will try to provide trading systems using a very important concept in the financial market which is volatility. We will provide a trading system based on the Keltner Channel indicator after understanding it and how we can code it and how we can create a trading system based on a simple trading strategy and then test it on different assets.

The liquidity grab trading strategy is a key component of Smart Money Concepts (SMC), which seeks to identify and exploit the actions of institutional players in the market. It involves targeting areas of high liquidity, such as support or resistance zones, where large orders can trigger price movements before the market resumes its trend. This article explains the concept of liquidity grab in detail and outlines the development process of the liquidity grab trading strategy Expert Advisor in MQL5.

In my previous article, I showed you how to create a Chart Trade using MetaTrader 5 objects and thus to turn the platform into a RAD system. The system works very well, and for sure many of the readers might have thought about creating a library, which would allow having extended functionality in the proposed system. Based on this, it would be possible to develop a more intuitive Expert Advisor with a nicer and easier to use interface.

This is the first part of the new order system. Since we started documenting this EA in our articles, it has undergone various changes and improvements while maintaining the same on-chart order system model.

In this article, we will provide a simple and easy guide to anyone who needs to create one of the most valuable and helpful tools in trading which is the graphical panel to simplify and ease doing tasks around trading which helps to save time and focus more on your trading process itself without any distractions.

We all know the importance of the Moving Average indicator for a lot of traders. There are other Moving average types that can be useful in trading, we will identify these types in this article and make a simple comparison between each one of them and the most popular simple Moving average type to see which one can show the best results.
