Check out the new article: Developing a trading robot in Python (Part 3): Implementing a model-based trading algorithm.

We continue the series of articles on developing a trading robot in Python and MQL5. In this article, we will create a trading algorithm in Python.

To implement a trading algorithm based on our model, we will use the following approach. The basic algorithm is to open trades with pre-set stop losses and take profits that match the labels generated by the model. If the model predicts the asset price rise, we open a long position with stop loss and take profit levels set. If the model predicts the asset price fall, we open a short position with similar stop loss and take profit parameters.

The MetaTrader 5 library for Python provides the necessary tools for managing the opening and closing of trades, as well as for setting stop loss and take profit levels. This allows us to fully automate trading based on the model forecasts.

Using the data obtained in the previous stages of analysis and training, we can transmit signals to open and close positions on the MetaTrader 5 platform in real time, thereby ensuring the continuity and accuracy of our trading algorithm.

Thus, integrating our trained model with the MetaTrader 5 library for Python allows us to create an efficient and automated trading algorithm that trades based on the model predictions, managing risks with preset stop losses and protecting profits with take profits.
