History of MQL5.community development

In this article, we will continue to study the remaining optimization methods from the ALGLIB library, paying special attention to their testing on complex multidimensional functions. This will allow us not only to evaluate the efficiency of each algorithm, but also to identify their strengths and weaknesses in different conditions.

Aligned with our goal of developing practical price-action tools, this article explores the creation of an EA that detects pin bar and engulfing patterns, using RSI divergence as a confirmation trigger before generating any trading signals.

In this article, we implement trade execution and risk management for the Envelopes Trend Bounce Scalping Strategy in MQL5. We implement order placement and risk controls like stop-loss and position sizing. We conclude with backtesting and optimization, building on Part 18’s foundation.

We follow up our last article, where we introduced the indicator pair of TRIX and Williams Percent Range, by considering how this indicator pairing could be extended with Machine Learning. TRIX and William’s Percent are a trend and support/ resistance complimentary pairing. Our machine learning approach uses a convolution neural network that engages the cosine kernel in its architecture when fine-tuning the forecasts of this indicator pairing. As always, this is done in a custom signal class file that works with the MQL5 wizard to assemble an Expert Advisor.

In this article, we will look at how to implement what was shown in the previous article related to our replay/simulation service. As in many other things in life, problems are bound to arise. And this case was no exception. In this article, we continue to improve things. The content presented here is intended solely for educational purposes. Under no circumstances should the application be viewed for any purpose other than to learn and master the concepts presented.

ARIMA, short for Auto Regressive Integrated Moving Average, is a powerful traditional time series forecasting model. With the ability to detect spikes and fluctuations in a time series data, this model can make accurate predictions on the next values. In this article, we are going to understand what is it, how it operates, what you can do with it when it comes to predicting the next prices in the market with high accuracy and much more.

This article teaches beginners how to build an Expert Advisor (EA) in MQL5 that trades based on chart pattern recognition using trend line breakouts and reversals. By learning how to retrieve trend line values dynamically and compare them with price action, readers will be able to develop EAs capable of identifying and trading chart patterns such as ascending and descending trend lines, channels, wedges, triangles, and more.

In this article, we build a multi-timeframe scanner dashboard in MQL5 to display real-time trading signals. We plan an interactive grid interface, implement signal calculations with multiple indicators, and add a close button. The article concludes with backtesting and strategic trading benefits

The Contrastive Transformer is designed to analyze markets both at the level of individual candlesticks and based on entire patterns. This helps improve the quality of market trend modeling. Moreover, the use of contrastive learning to align representations of candlesticks and patterns fosters self-regulation and improves the accuracy of forecasts.

Price action is a fundamental approach for identifying profitable trading setups. However, manually monitoring price movements and patterns can be challenging and time-consuming. To address this, we are developing tools that analyze price action automatically, providing timely signals whenever potential opportunities are detected. This article introduces a robust tool that leverages fractal breakouts alongside EMA 14 and EMA 200 to generate reliable trading signals, helping traders make informed decisions with greater confidence.

In this article, we will look at how to work with arrays in MQL5, including how to pass information between functions and procedures using arrays. The purpose is to prepare you for what will be demonstrated and explained in future materials in the series. Therefore, I strongly recommend that you carefully study what will be shown in this article.

In this article, we will get acquainted with the ALGLIB library optimization methods for MQL5. The article includes simple and clear examples of using ALGLIB to solve optimization problems, which will make mastering the methods as accessible as possible. We will take a detailed look at the connection of such algorithms as BLEIC, L-BFGS and NS, and use them to solve a simple test problem.

In this article, we build the core infrastructure for the Envelopes Trend Bounce Scalping Expert Advisor in MQL5. We initialize envelopes and other indicators for signal generation. We set up backtesting to prepare for trade execution in the next part.

When we use models to analyze the market situation, we mainly focus on the candlestick. However, it has long been known that candlestick patterns can help in predicting future price movements. In this article, we will get acquainted with a method that allows us to integrate both of these approaches.
