Specification
I am looking for an experienced developer in MQL5 to build a fully AI and automated trading bot (Expert Advisor) for MetaTrader 5. The EA will trade XAUUSD only and will be based purely on price action and Smart Money Concepts (SMC), specifically focusing on liquidity sweeps, market structure shifts (MSS/CHoCH), and wick rejection entries at key points of interest (POIs). The system must follow a strict rule: no liquidity sweep, no trade. It should detect liquidity grabs such as equal highs/lows, session highs/lows, and swing points, confirm a valid market structure shift within a defined number of candles, and then identify valid POIs such as order blocks and liquidity zones before executing trades based on strong wick rejection candles with a defined wick percentage.
The EA must incorporate full trade management, including risk-based lot sizing (percentage of account balance), stop loss placement based on the rejection wick with a configurable buffer, and a take profit system that supports partial closes, multiple targets, and a runner. It should also include breakeven functionality, maximum trades per day, and daily drawdown protection. Additional filters must include trading session restrictions (London and New York sessions), a news filter to avoid high-impact events, a spread filter, and an optional higher timeframe bias filter to align trades with overall market direction.
A visual on-chart dashboard is required to display higher timeframe and mid-timeframe bias, the last swept liquidity level, active POIs, and real-time setup status such as “Waiting Sweep,” “Waiting MSS,” or “Ready.” It should also show risk in monetary terms, calculated lot size, risk-to-reward ratio, and daily performance metrics, including profit/loss and number of trades taken.
The development must be done without the use of indicators; all logic should rely strictly on OHLC price data, market structure, and liquidity concepts. The EA should also visually plot liquidity sweeps, POIs, and executed trades on the chart for validation purposes. Deliverables include fully commented source code, the compiled EA file, backtest results on XAUUSD M5 from 2025 to present, a user guide or documentation, and at least two rounds of revisions. Applicants should have strong experience in MT5 EA development, a solid understanding of price action and SMC concepts, and be able to deliver clean, efficient, and well-structured code. Please include examples of similar projects or EAs you have developed when applying.
NOTE: I HAVE MADE AVAILABLE DOCUMENTS WHICH CONTAIN ALL DESCRIPTIONS AND PARAMETERS OF THE BOT; ALSO, A LINK TO THE VIDEO IS READILY AVAILABLE. THE BOT WILL BE TESTED ON LIVE MARKETS TO SEE IF IT MEETS OUR DEMANDS. THIS PROJECT REQUIRES A HIGH AND DEDICATED EXPERTISE. WE WILL GIVE MUCH TO INCLUDE ALL BACKTESTING AND LIVE TESTING THANK YOU
