Help for expert advisor builder

gianlucamalato:

Hello, everyone! I've been using MT4 and MT5 for a long time and I think I master MQL4 and MQL5 languages quite well. So, I've decided to build an expert advisor builder in order to help people make their own EA without having programming skills.

My question can sound trivial or stupid, but in order to make a business I have to be sure. I know that MQL4 and MQL5 are trademarks of Metaquotes property and I have to credit them in a proper way in my software. My question is: do I have to pay something to Metaquotes in order to develop and sell an expert advisor builder that creates MQL4/5 code? Or it's enough to credit the trademark in the credits section of my application?

Thanks and regards

Can anybody help me?

No lawyers here, but your code is yours. You don't need to credit them - they didn't write it, you did. You don't need to pay them anything. Just copywrite your code.
Etasoft forex generator, EA builder, EATree, Forex Strategy Builder, FOREXEADVISOR STRATEGY BUILDER, FX EA Builder, fxDreema, FxPro, Molanis, Online Forex Expert Advisor Generator, Quant, Strategy Builder FX, Visual Trader Studio, MQL5 Wizard, etc., are all the same. You will get something quick, but then you will spend a much longer time trying to get it right, than if you learned the language up front, and then just wrote it.
- Since you haven't learned MQL4/5, therefor there is no common language for us to communicate.
  If we tell you what you need, you can't code it.
  If we give you the code, you don't know how to integrate it into yours.
  We are willing to HELP you when you post your attempt (using SRC) and the nature of your problem, but we are not going to debug your hundreds of lines of code. You are essentially going to be on your own.
