Published article "Portfolio Risk Model using Kelly Criterion and Monte Carlo Simulation".

For decades, traders have been using the Kelly Criterion formula to determine the optimal proportion of capital to allocate to an investment or bet to maximize long-term growth while minimizing the risk of ruin. However, blindly following Kelly Criterion using the result of a single backtest is often dangerous for individual traders, as in live trading, trading edge diminishes over time, and past performance is no predictor of future result. In this article, I will present a realistic approach to applying the Kelly Criterion for one or more EA's risk allocation in MetaTrader 5, incorporating Monte Carlo simulation results from Python.

Today we will begin to consider how to implement the calculation of pseudo-inverse in pure MQL5 language. The code we are going to look at will be much more complex for beginners than I expected, and I'm still figuring out how to explain it in a simple way. So for now, consider this an opportunity to learn some unusual code. Calmly and attentively. Although it is not aimed at efficient or quick application, its goal is to be as didactic as possible.

- Hammer Indicator The code above is a "Hammer" indicator that detects candlestick hammer formations (bullish and bearish) and inverted hammer formations (bullish and bearish) on a MetaTrader 5 chart. This indicator identifies price reversal patterns by calculating the size and ratio of the candlestick wicks based on adjustable parameters: MaxRatioShortWick, MinRatioLongWick, and MinCandleSize. When a pattern is detected, the indicator displays a colored arrow near the candle’s lowest or highest price according to the pattern’s direction. The code also includes functions to create and delete objects automatically when the indicator is initialized or stopped.
