Modification of Existing MT5 EA for zero slippage – XAUUSD

Specification

PROJECT: EXISTING MT5 EA MODIFICATION – XAUUSD SLIPPAGE REDUCTION

1. Project Objective

I already have a fully developed MT5 Expert Advisor (.mq5 source code).

I am looking for an experienced MQL5 developer who can optimize my existing EA to achieve the lowest possible execution slippage on a REAL LIVE trading account.

My primary and only objective is to zero slippage. I am not looking for a new trading strategy or additional indicators.

2. My Main Requirements

1. Target zero slippage wherever technically achievable.
2. Maximum acceptable slippage: 0.05 (XAUUSD price units).
3. Minimize slippage on both entry and exit orders.
4. Optimize market order execution speed.
5. Minimize execution delays, requotes and rejected orders.
6. Optimize order handling and trade request management.
7. Maintain accurate execution records.
8. Preserve my existing EA strategy and trading logic.
9. Ensure compatibility with MT5 and XAUUSD.

3. Technical Requirements

I need a developer with practical experience in:

- MQL5 Expert Advisor development.
- MT5 execution optimization.
- Broker execution and liquidity.
- Low-latency trading systems.
- Market execution and slippage analysis.
- Order filling policies and execution modes.

Please investigate whether slippage can be reduced through EA-side optimization and identify which execution problems are controlled by the broker or liquidity provider.

4. Testing Requirements

I want proper testing, not just backtesting.

Please provide:

- Requested price versus actual executed price.
- Entry and exit slippage reports.
- Execution time in milliseconds.
- Detailed MT5 execution logs.
- Demo account testing.
- Real live account testing with small lot sizes.

I will personally verify the results on a real live account before considering the project successful.

5. Important Conditions

I already have the EA source code in .mq5 format.

I do not want my existing trading strategy changed.

My priority is execution optimization and slippage reduction only.

Before accepting this project, please explain your technical approach and honestly confirm whether my maximum slippage requirement of 0.05 can realistically be achieved.

I understand that zero slippage cannot be guaranteed by EA code alone if the broker or liquidity provider controls the execution price.

I am looking for an experienced developer who can demonstrate measurable improvements on a real live account.
