I started learning C programming in 2010. From there I picked up many languages.
I have worked with MQL for just a year now. I pick up programming languages very quickly because I'm no stranger to programming.
I'm working on several indicator projects and EA concepts.
I'm currently studying epistemological degeneracy in financial markets.

There are bad indicators out there that have a beautiful appearance but are misleading and dangerous, and there are good indicators that nobody knows about.

There's too much education and articles that can get in the way of actually trading. Trading doesn't require any brains, it just takes understanding and being methodical

Unpopular opinion: Trading is the easiest thing in the world with a good indicator and understanding of price action. Trading will obviously be difficult with no statistical edge, a lot of repainting, and a lot of wild guessing

After 4+ years on MT5 trying to get strategy with indicators, just finished QuantCourse and totally agree with you "Trading will obviously be difficult with no statistical edge"

Imagine flying a real aircraft without ever stepping into a flight simulator. That's what trading is like. You have to simulate your strategy before you can take it to a live market. It is good if you can simulate things speedily before even stepping into any live market, or before coming up with an automated system. People don't have all day to stare at a higher timeframe chart until the entry signal finally arrives. That's why I built this so that you can simulate your strategy with

The manual trading simulator is completed, I have nothing more to do on it. It is good I asked in the forum if it was possible to make buttons work in the EA tester...because sometimes there is a solution found by someone, and it saves you from thinking that it might not be possible.

Keep this is mind when it comes to automated trading:
- An EA that was designed for a particular market style (trending/volatile/ranging) is unlikely to work properly in other market styles with the default setting.
- If a market is choppy, a setting has to be created to account for that, and that takes understanding of technical market dynamics.
The other world of automated trading is quantum/adaptive where it is not trading like a trader anymore and is using complex adaptive algorithms.
It's not fully known if this is more profitable or risky, or whether keeping it simple is more profitable. Simple systems can offer transparency. Complex systems come with validation challenges and opacity.
Personally I see markets as something that alternates primarily because of news and data releases. Both algorithms and manual traders react to that.
If a position is opened by a simple EA, the user must have due diligence and decide if the trade should sit there, or if it should be closed soon based on current news, and not the news that was published at the trade open time.

The answer is 2, it's still going down.
Because THAT is known as a liquidity trap which traps a lot of novice traders.

My next project is to create a system that allows you to buy and sell manually in the actual EA strategy tester. I don't even know if this works yet. But I think that if we could test our strategy AT SPEED it would be good.

This was a manual trade. It was a Sell Limit placed at the daily vwap price when the dollar gained strength again. I would say this trade was a bit of luck too to get such a bid price
