Task for modifying an MQL5 Expert Advisor for trading with US30, BTC/USD and ETH/USD, including an FTMO demo test.

Issue: The EA does not open positions in live trading, especially for US30, despite promising results in the strategy tester. Resolving this problem is of the utmost priority. It is crucial that the developer maintains clear communication and collaborates with me on finding a solution.

Project Description: Adjustment of an existing MQL5 Expert Advisor for trading US30, BTC, and Ethereum. The EA should undergo testing on an FTMO demo account to ensure reliable functionality under real market conditions. Upon successful implementation of the requirements, a payment of $30 will be made. If an explanation of the adjustments is provided, the payment will be increased to $50.

Requirements:

1. Symbol Selection: Addition of the symbols US30, BTC, and Ethereum, with consideration that not all symbols tradable on FTMO may be supported seamlessly.
2. Maximum Number of Trades: Integration of a function for easy configuration of the maximum number of trades.
3. FTMO Demo Test: Comprehensive testing with US30, BTC, and Ethereum on an FTMO demo account.
4. Verification of Months without Trades: Clarification and explanation of why no trades are placed in certain months, determining if it is related to the code.
5. Ensuring Stability and Effectiveness of the EA under real market conditions.
6. Adding the symbols US30, BTC, and Ethereum for future compatibility.

Notes:

• The code should function flawlessly on the specified symbols, especially US30.
• It is noted that not all symbols tradable on FTMO may be supported without issues.
• Extensions should be seamlessly integrated into the existing code without compromising core elements.
• Configurability of the maximum number of trades and time limitations.
• Objective: Preserve optimal trading conditions for the mentioned instruments and overall code integrity.

I will provide the code privately.

Regarding the screenshots, they illustrate the issue where the BTC/USD EAs are active throughout the entire weekend but do not execute any trades. US30 was active throughout the last week and also did not place a single position.

It would be beneficial to explain why no trades are placed in some months, particularly in January and February, and determine if it is related to the code.

Effective communication throughout the process is crucial. I look forward to a successful collaboration.
