Step by step guide for auto optimization in MQL5 for Expert Advisors

The EA development plan includes several stages with intermediate results being saved in the database. They can only be retrieved from there again as strings or numbers, not objects. So we need a way to recreate the desired objects in the EA from the strings read from the database.

In this article, we integrate interactive inline buttons into an MQL5 Expert Advisor, allowing real-time control via Telegram. Each button press triggers specific actions and sends responses back to the user. We also modularize functions for handling Telegram messages and callback queries efficiently.

Bollinger Bands are a very common Envelope Indicator used by a lot of traders to manually place and close trades. We examine this indicator by considering as many of the different possible signals it does generate, and see how they could be put to use in a wizard assembled Expert Advisor.

The article considers one of the most famous non-parametric homogeneity tests – the two-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. Both model data and real quotes are analyzed. The article also provides an example of constructing a non-stationarity indicator (iSmirnovDistance).

This article explores a feature selection algorithm introduced in the paper 'Local Feature Selection for Data Classification' by Narges Armanfard et al. The algorithm is implemented in Python to build binary classifier models that can be integrated with MetaTrader 5 applications for inference.
