Unfortunately, the BotBrains programme is not completed. For an ordinary person it is not suitable, that to use this programme you need mql5 programming skills, so it is not a visual editor of Expert Advisors.
 

Good afternoon. I am interested in your platform. When trying to test the robot (MT5 strategy tester, trying to work in a limited mode) always, regardless of the type of account (real or demo) when placing a market order I get error 10018 - market closed. Am I doing something wrong? Or do I need a paid subscription?

 
Great app, very intuitive.

I agree. Ideally, it is desirable to do without the need to generate and compile code at all. And the interface is too overloaded - it is not much easier to learn it than to write an Expert Advisor.

 

What about"custom indicators". Is it possible to create an indicator block independently? Can it be a separate option-order?

 

It would be better to see how it's done in TcLab. It is so popular for a reason. It has certain nuances - they have created a completely different approach in visual programming. There are no variables as such, and other. This is the quickest bad thing, as well as labour-intensive in programming. But the principles had to be taken away.

In your case you are creating visual code in its purest form. It's as hard to learn as programming using a language. Because there is no escape from language constructs in principle.

 
But the automatic module of interface creation may be interesting for programmers.
