Professional MQL5 Expert Advisor Development – Robust & Fully Configurable Trading Robot

1. Project Overview

I am looking for an experienced MQL5 developer to design a robust, clean, and well-structured Expert Advisor (EA) for MetaTrader 5.
The goal is to transform a clearly defined trading logic into a stable, efficient, and fully configurable EA, suitable for backtesting and optimization.

2. Platform & Language

• Platform: MetaTrader 5
• Programming language: MQL5
• Code must follow best practices (modular structure, readability, comments).

3. Trading Logic

• The EA will trade Forex instruments (symbols to be defined).
• Timeframes: configurable (default to be defined).
• Entry conditions based on:
  • Technical indicators (to be specified precisely)
  • Logical confirmations (no discretionary rules)
• No repainting, no future data usage.

4. Trade Management

• One trade per signal (no uncontrolled overtrading).
• Optional features (to be discussed):
  • Break-even
  • Trailing stop
  • Partial close

5. Risk & Money Management

• Risk management is a key priority.
• Position size calculated based on:
  • Fixed lot or
  • Risk percentage per trade
• All risk parameters must be externally configurable.

6. Execution Filters

• Trading session filter (hours & days).
• Maximum spread filter.
• Slippage protection.
• Optional news filter (if feasible).

7. Inputs & Customization

All parameters must be accessible via input variables, including:

• Risk settings
• Indicator parameters
• Trade management rules
• Filters and protections

8. Logging & Visualization

• Clean and informative journal logs.
• Optional on-chart information panel:
  • Current status
  • Open positions
  • Account/trade statistics

9. Testing & Quality Requirements

• Fully compatible with MT5 Strategy Tester.
• Stable behavior during optimization.
• No critical errors or warnings.
• Developer should perform internal testing before delivery.

10. Deliverables

• .mq5 source file
• .ex5 compiled file
• Short user guide explaining inputs and logic
• Post-delivery bug fixes (reasonable period)

11. Communication & Professionalism

• Clear communication and structured feedback.
• Respect of deadlines.
• Long-term collaboration possible if results are satisfactory.
