Impressive. A lot of work.
Will there be an option to add your own custom blocks?
I'm gonna try it
Vladimir Perervenko:
I thought about it. I came to the conclusion that if a person is able to program a custom block, he can write an Expert Advisor himself => so the product is not for him.Will there be an option to add your own custom blocks?
I have put this idea aside for now, but I haven't crossed it off my to-do list for the future.
It looks like Quant from FxPro.

Looks like FxPro's Quant.

Yes, it is. But it doesn't have the limitations that are there, plus in this product you can generate Expert Advisors for MT5.
Andrey Barinov:
But you have everything in MQL, which is mind-boggling! :)
Yes, it looks like it.

So far I have put this idea aside, but I haven't crossed it off my to do list for the future.
So this feature works for the end (non-programming) user, although not directly, but indirectly - it allows you to attract third-party developers who will add their modules. Without API it is difficult to expand alone.
New article Visual strategy builder. Creating trading robots without programming has been published:
This article presents a visual strategy builder. It is shown how any user can create trading robots and utilities without programming. Created Expert Advisors are fully functional and can be tested in the strategy tester, optimized in the cloud or executed live on real time charts.
The trading logic of the EA is completely ready. Now we need to make sure that the trading lot size, magic, trades comment and the Stop Loss / Take Profit values can be adjusted from the input parameters of the Expert Advisor. To do this, we again need the elements from the Input Parameters group.
The trading lot is given by a decimal number, trade comment is a string, while the magic number, stop loss and take profit are integers. Add these elements to the scheme and attach them to the corresponding parameters of the trading elements.
The scheme is ready. Now you need to create an executable EA file.
