New article Do Traders Need Services From Developers? has been published:

Algorithmic trading becomes more popular and needed, which naturally led to a demand for exotic algorithms and unusual tasks. To some extent, such complex applications are available in the Code Base or in the Market. Although traders have simple access to those apps in a couple of clicks, these apps may not satisfy all needs in full. In this case, traders look for developers who can write a desired application in the MQL5 Freelance section and assign an order. Just like this:

Order for Expert Advisor Consisting of 4 Custom Indicators

Generally speaking, this kind of order is pretty ordinary and straightforward in terms of programming, but it requires the developer to create a unique EA for the specific trader. Apparently, for the customer it is more convenient to work with such an expert and he is willing to pay for the job. There are many orders as such in the Freelance section, and this is a great opportunity to gain income through Freelance jobs in a short time, solving an interesting and unique challenge.

Great!
 
Yup a very convenient and proper arrangement I think - just getting ready to use it for the first time but I think (from all I have read, heard and seen about it) it will be worth it. One thing though I think the service desk might be more responsive. I had a little problem funding my account and though solved it by myself now, at first I tried to reach service desk/support but for two days no help, then I called Cyprus and still only got a machine response saying I should write support and I did but no support. Anyway just to point out that with growing usage of the freelance service there should be more visible and responsive support from the service desk staff as there will always be issues - mostly very simple ones like mine for first timers.
