Hi

I need any expert advisor for any trading system that is open source (mq4 format) , provided that it is fully prepared for adding here on the site (market/mt4/experts) without errors in the code such as lot size and margin

I will modify it and add my own strategy

thanks

Then hire someone to do that for you. We certainly are not going to do it for you for free when your ultimate goal is to then sell it on the Market.

Is it easy (or difficult) to …?

Fernando Carreiro, 2017.08.30 21:43

This post could be considered a “rant”, but I would like to take the opportunity to relay to those that ask similar questions, the difficulty involved in answering such a simple query – “Is it is easy (or difficult) to …?”

  • “Easy” would imply that anyone can do it, but that is obviously not the case.
  • “Easy” depends on the ability, skill, knowledge and experience of the one that is tasked to do it.
  • That ability, skill, knowledge and experience took time to establish and it had a cost, and if you sum it all up, it can be quite high.
  • So, “easy” means that if you don’t know how to do it yourself (or not able to do it yourself), then you will have to “compensate” someone else to do it for you.
  • You will be “compensating” him or her for all the effort and cost that went into acquiring the ability, skill, knowledge and experience and NOT for the actual time spent carrying out the task.

So, even if the task is just changing one line of code; remember that you are “compensating” the person for his knowledge and skills and not for just one line of code.

The same applies to those that request for something “simple” to be done for free. It is NEVER “simple”. If it were that “simple” then you would be able to do it yourself.

So, respect the hard work and effort the coder went through to gain his skills and knowledge and “compensate” him/her for it. Wanting it for free is being totally disrespectful!

PS! In conclusion, learn to use the Freelance Jobs section and recognise and respect those more skilled, knowledgeable and experienced than you!

EDIT: Please note that I use the term "compensation" and not "payment", because there are many ways to "compensate" for work done. Sometimes a coder will be "compensated" with gained or shared knowledge instead of money, or by an exchange of ideas or other things. It is not always about the money but it is about the "compensation"!

At least he is asking openly and publicly. I would be curious to know how many "stolen" code are published in the Market.

Quite a lot from what I have seen.

Quite a lot from what I have seen. A few I even reported but they are still there.

Yeah that's why I don't publish any code publicly any more, it's a pity.

And one day you will see your code provided as answer by AI like our "friend" ChatGPT.

Yes, that is certainly a very highly probably outcome.
