I deployed an EA in MQL5 VPS since October 2024 and it worked fine until Jan 15 2025.. I presume Metatrader migrated the EA to a different sever and in that process the EA was removed. Fortunately, all the positions open were at profit and this issue

Recently, I watched a video of a person coding an EA that took historical data, offset it by 1 candle and loaded it into an EA that tailor positions based on whether the prior candle went up or down. The result was an EA with amazing performance and

I wanted to share a function I have developed to get the latest message from a Discord channel. It requires only the channel ID and the Discord Bot Token, and returns a string with the latest message in the chat. It can be combined with another

I created a simple function that sends a message do Discord from any MQL5 EA, I hope it can be useful to others. Now I want to create an EA that reads that message from Discord. While reading about this, I found that one can use the GET function as a

I have been renting MQL5 VPSs for a while; super convenient and very affordable. However, recently I came across a situation I do not know how to fix: One of my VPSs has been running for a while demos from different EAs, but recently I used this VPS

I order my first EA from the Market place and  just learned about this condition on the number of activations. I have some questions about this: 1) every time we install an EA, say I want to change the configuration, or update a change made by

Image an scenario where a 1 lot long position is -$100 in profit, and it is hedged with 1 lot short position, locking the profit at -$100. Say the price moves even lower, and I want to reduce the lost to -$50 while keeping the positions balanced. How

Does anyone knows why, in the web-page of MQL5 there is an offer of renting VPS for 12 months, but in MQL5 VPS that offer does not appear? The largest available is 6 month

Would anyone know how to incorporate into a breakeven price calculation the swaps of the given positions? I am working on the function below, which calculate the BE price of positions of a given pair in a given direction, but I have not figure out a

While working with multi-currency EAs, most commonly one has a unique EA that is applied over to multiple currencies. In theory, there is an infinite loop, running the same operations over data from multiple currency pairs. While studying how to do

I have a multi-currency EA that works very well in my local computer.  However, when moving it to the MQL5 VPS, I get a warning saying  " indicator is too slow, rewrite the indicator, please". Looking on the web over solutions to this

Hi, I am trying to convert an indicator from MQL4 to MQL5. I am struggling with the last part of it, which collects the highest and lowest prior values. This indicator is suppose to add and subtract the ATR to the high and low of each bar, and from a

Does anyone has a MQL5 version of the Chande Kroll Stop indicator willing to share? I found the MQL4 version of it, but before start translating, wanted to ask if maybe someone already has it and is willing to share/post it

Unfortunately, in the strategy tester of MQL5, the crosshair does not display the price change, as the crosshair does in the main chart. This is critical to quantify changes in prices while debuging codes. As such, I am exploring the option of

Say I have an indicator that generates values of higher time frame in lower time frame charts (A so-call MTF indicator). If I were to copy the values of that MTF for say creating a custom indicator at a lower TF. How do I copy the data from the MTF

I found a Pivot indicator, that identifies the highest candle among a set or before and after candles. It only marks the position of the pivot candle. This is the same idea of the fractal indicator , with the difference that the pivot indicator is

Is there such a thing as a bachelor, master's or Ph.D. in trading or a related field? What is the name of such a career?. are there good universities teaching this? or is such a massive enterprise of humanity purely an empirical/DYI one

I recently noted an EA with some amazing performance even in my own backstesting of it (a 98% accuracy, a 49 profit factor).  The user interface is pretty simple and very few parameters one can modify other than the number of entries and how big

I found this very nice indicator for MQL4 that takes the iFractals indicator to different time frames. I found an excellent version for MQL5 HERE , which unfortunately does not include the option for different timeframes. This appears to be a basic
