MT5 Custom Non-Time-Based Chart Renderer with TXT Import, Indicator, Expert Advisor and Backtesting Support

MQL5 Other

Specification

I need an MT5 tool that reads prebuilt candles directly from static local TXT files with comma-separated columns:

Date, Time, Open, High, Low, Last, Volume, NumberOfTrades, BidVolume, AskVolume

Requirements

  • Use only Date, Time, Open, High, Low, Last , treating Last as Close. Ignore the remaining columns; they may stay in the file but must not be required or displayed.
  • Each row must remain an independent candle with its original OHLC values and sequence. Display candles with equal horizontal spacing, without time-based aggregation or synthetic timestamps, even internally.
  • Preserve original timestamps, including milliseconds. Do not convert timezones or assume timestamps represent candle opening or closing times.
  • Never merge candles sharing a minute, second, or exact timestamp. Support varying daily candle counts, without artificial candles or empty gaps during market closures.
  • Show original date/time labels on the bottom axis and exact timestamps and OHLC values on hover.
  • Include scrolling, horizontal zoom, date navigation, automatic/manual price scaling, horizontal lines, trendlines, Fibonacci tools, percentage measurement, and candle counting.
  • Save and restore drawings against the correct candles. Restoring the previous viewing position or zoom is unnecessary.
  • Support analysis and backtesting using my existing EX5 indicators and EAs. Confirm compatibility before agreement; visual display alone is insufficient. Native MT5 Strategy Tester or a custom testing engine is acceptable, with limitations disclosed.
  • Support multiple files containing up to 10 million candles per file, with efficient memory use and responsive navigation. Specify hardware requirements and demonstrate large-file performance.
  • Live updates and live trading are not required.

Deliverables: complete source code, compiled files, dependencies, installation instructions, and a prototype using my sample data to verify candle accuracy, timestamps, no lost/merged valid candles, and EX5 compatibility. Include 30 days of fixes for defects against the agreed specifications.

Please provide your implementation approach, price, timeframe, dependencies, and any limitations before development begins.

I prefer to work with a developer who has completed a similar project or already has a ready-made solution that meets these requirements and can be adapted to my needs.
