Quantitative Analyst / EA Optimization Specialist for MetaTrader 5

Description:

We are looking for an experienced quantitative analyst or MetaTrader 5 EA optimization specialist to improve the performance and robustness of an existing Expert Advisor.

This is not a programming job — the EA is already developed.

We need advanced optimization and robust backtesting to achieve stable, reliable results.

Responsibilities:

• Perform robust parameter optimization using walk-forward testing, monte carlo simulations, and out-of-sample validation
• Run high-quality backtests on tick data and analyze performance metrics
• Deliver a clear report with key stats: Sharpe ratio, profit factor, drawdown, recovery factor
• Suggest improvements for risk management and money management
• Ensure robustness across different market conditions and avoid overfitting

Requirements:

• Proven experience with MetaTrader 5 Expert Advisors
• Expertise in walk-forward optimization and robust backtesting techniques
• Strong knowledge of quantitative analysis and algorithmic trading
• Ability to provide professional, data-driven reports

Deliverables:

• Optimized EA parameters tested across multiple datasets
• Detailed performance report (in-sample vs out-of-sample)
• Recommendations for risk and position sizing

Budget:

Open to hourly or fixed-price proposals based on experience.

When applying, please include:

• Brief intro about your EA optimization experience
• Examples of previous reports or projects
• Estimated cost and delivery timeline
