i write c++ language though not too fluent to some extent. I have been trading for a while and I have some strategy I use in trading that I need to automate on mql4, because it is cumbersome and time-consuming. Please, I need advise on how to do this or how start.

You could look in Codebase for a similar EA and adapt it to your needs while you are learning.

All EAs do basically the same things.

Check for conditions to place a buy or a sell trade.

Place trades.

Manage trades.

There are plenty of EAs in the Codebase that do this.

You say that you have experience with C++, so you should realise that your request is just too vague to expect a comprehensive answer.
