Title: Forex Trading Bot (MT5 Expert Advisor) — EMA + RSI Strategy with Risk Controls

Platform
- MetaTrader 5 (MT5). Provide both compiled (.ex5) and source (.mq5).

Markets & Timeframe
- Primary currency pairs: EURUSD, GBPUSD, XAUUSD (gold). Developer may add other pairs upon request.
- Primary timeframe: H1 (hourly). Should support user selection of timeframe via input parameters.

Strategy Rules (core)
1. Indicators:
   - EMA Fast: 50-period Exponential Moving Average
   - EMA Slow: 200-period Exponential Moving Average
   - RSI: 14-period Relative Strength Index

2. Entry:
   - BUY when EMA(50) crosses ABOVE EMA(200) AND RSI < 70
   - SELL when EMA(50) crosses BELOW EMA(200) AND RSI > 30

3. Exit:
   - Close position when opposite signal occurs (EMA cross in opposite direction).
   - Also allow fixed Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) in pips (configurable).
   - Optional trailing stop (configurable).

Money & Risk Management
- Entry lot options:
  - Fixed lot (e.g., 0.01) OR
  - Risk-per-trade: X% of account balance (user-configurable)
- Max open trades: configurable (default = 1)
- Max daily drawdown limit: configurable (in % of balance) — if reached, EA stops trading for the day/session.
- Minimum account balance / free margin checks before opening new trades.

Inputs / User Parameters (all must be exposed in EA inputs)

- Enable_news_filter (true/false) and News_time_window_minutes (if enabled)
- Trade_start_time / Trade_end_time (optional — server hours)
- Currency pairs list (allow selection by symbol or auto-detect)

Optional Features (nice-to-have)
- Time-of-day filter (do not trade outside specified hours).
- Spread limit (do not open trade if spread > X pips).
- News filter (avoid trading around high-impact news; if implemented, state the data source).
- Equity stop (if account equity falls below X% stop trading).
- Break-even option (move SL to break-even after X pips in profit).
- Multi-pair support and per-pair settings.

Notifications & Logging
- Push notifications to mobile and/or email when trade is opened/closed (configurable).
- Detailed log file or comments for each trade (entry reason, indicator values at entry, TP, SL).
- Option to write CSV or log to journal for backtest analysis.

Delivery / Files required
- Source code: .mq5 file
- Compiled binary: .ex5 file
- A short README describing all input parameters and how to install/run
- Example recommended settings to run in Strategy Tester
- Optional: a short video or screenshot showing EA attached and one trade in tester (if available)

Testing & Acceptance Criteria
- Developer must run basic Strategy Tester proof screenshots showing at least one backtest on EURUSD H1 with the provided settings.
- EA must not open trades during disabled hours or if risk checks fail.
- EA must respect SL, TP, trailing stop and close on opposite signals.
- Upon delivery, I will run a demo/backtest; any bugs preventing basic trading behavior will require fixes.

Support & Warranty
- Include 30 days of free bug-fix support after delivery (developer to propose).
- Provide brief in-code comments on logic or a short document explaining critical functions.

Other
- Please state required price and estimated delivery time in your proposal.
- Provide prior similar EA examples or link to MQL5 profile items for verification.
- Developer should confirm compatibility with broker servers (hedging/NETTING options) if relevant.

Acceptance
- I will consider the job complete when source + compiled files are delivered, EA attaches and runs in MT5 Strategy Tester with documented inputs and expected behavior per the specification.

I need an experienced MT4/MT5 user or MQL4/MQL5 developer to test the MT4/MT5 sender EA used by Signalator Notify . The EA does not open trades, does not provide trading signals, and does not decide when to buy or sell. Its role is to run inside MT4/MT5 and report terminal status and trade-related events, so the purpose of this job is to check whether that monitoring workflow works correctly in a real terminal
