EA Performance Logger Telegram MT4

Are you running multiple Expert Advisors and struggling to keep track of exactly which one is performing and which one is dragging your account down? Do you find yourself constantly logging into MetaTrader just to check your daily or weekly P&L? Or are you looking for an easy way to provide evidence of your EA or manual trading performances to clients and potential investors?

Introducing the Performance Logger by AlgoQuant Labs for MetaTrader 5. This isn't just a simple notification bot; it is a comprehensive analytics engine designed for serious algorithmic traders."

(The Value Proposition) "Here is exactly why this tool is essential for your trading desk:

First, it offers Automated Peace of Mind. It automatically generates and sends professional-grade performance reports directly to your Telegram or Discord channels. Whether it's a Weekly, Monthly, or Yearly summary, you get the data you need delivered to your phone, without ever opening your terminal.

Second, it provides Deep Portfolio Insights. Most tools just show you the total balance. This utility breaks down your performance per Expert Advisor. It intelligently identifies trades—even those closed by Stop Loss or Take Profit—and groups them by strategy. You will know exactly which EA is your star performer, which currency pairs it traded, and which one needs optimization.

Third, it tracks Advanced Risk Metrics. We go beyond simple Profit and Loss. The reports include critical risk data like Maximum Drawdown, Profit Factor, Win Rates, and even Winning or Losing Streaks. This is essential data for prop firm traders who need to stay within strict limits.

And finally, it is Completely Customizable. Need to audit a specific date range? Use the Custom Period feature. Want to hide specific metrics or show detailed trade logs? You have full control over what gets reported."

"Stop guessing and start managing. Turn your MetaTrader terminal into a professional trading hub with the P&L Tracker."

Performance Logger - User Guide

This utility automatically tracks your trading performance and sends detailed reports to Telegram and Discord. Follow the steps below to set up the necessary connections and configure the Expert Advisor (EA).

Step 1: Setting up Telegram

To receive reports on your phone via Telegram, you need to create a "Bot" and get your Chat ID.

1. Get your Bot Token

1. Open Telegram and search for @BotFather.
2. Start a chat and send the command:  /newbot
3. Follow the instructions:
   • Name: Choose a display name (e.g., "My Trading Reporter").
   • Username: Choose a unique username ending in  bot  (e.g.,  MyTradingStats_bot ).
4. BotFather will send you a message containing your HTTP API Token.
   • Example:  123456789:ABCdefGhIJKlmNoPQRstuVWxyz
   • Copy this token. You will paste it into the  TelegramBotToken  input field in the EA.

2. Get your Chat ID

1. Create a Group (optional but recommended) in Telegram and add your new bot to it as a member. Alternatively, you can just message the bot directly in a private chat.
2. Send a test message (e.g., "Hello") to the bot or the group.
3. Open your web browser and visit the following URL (replace  <YOUR_BOT_TOKEN>  with the token you got in step 1):
   • https://api.telegram.org/bot&lt;YOUR_BOT_TOKEN>/getUpdates
4. Look for the text  "chat":{"id":  in the response. The number following it is your Chat ID.
   • Example:  -100123456789  (Group IDs usually start with a negative sign).
   • Copy this ID. You will paste it into the  TelegramChatID  input field in the EA.

Step 2: Setting up Discord

To receive reports in a Discord channel:

1. Open Discord and go to the server where you want the reports.
2. Right-click the text channel and select Edit Channel (gear icon).
3. Go to Integrations -> Webhooks.
4. Click New Webhook.
5. Name the webhook (e.g., "Trading Bot") and ensure the correct channel is selected.
6. Click Copy Webhook URL.
   • Example:  https://discord.com/api/webhooks/12345.../ABCde...
   • Copy this URL. You will paste it into the  DiscordWebhookURL  input field in the EA.

Step 3: Allowing Web Requests in MetaTrader 5

For the EA to send messages to the internet, you must allow it to communicate with Telegram and Discord servers.

1. Open MetaTrader 5.
2. Go to Tools -> Options (or press  Ctrl+O ).
3. Click on the Expert Advisors tab.
4. Check the box: Allow WebRequest for listed URL.
5. Double-click "Add new URL" and add the following URLs exactly as written:
   • https://api.telegram.org
   • https://discord.com
   • https://discordapp.com
6. Click OK.

Step 4: Configuring the EA Inputs
