MQL5 Programs Market

In this article, we automate the Head and Shoulders pattern in MQL5. We analyze its architecture, implement an EA to detect and trade it, and backtest the results. The process reveals a practical trading algorithm with room for refinement.

Larry Connors is a renowned trader and author, best known for his work in quantitative trading and strategies like the 2-period RSI (RSI2), which helps identify short-term overbought and oversold market conditions. In this article, we’ll first explain the motivation behind our research, then recreate three of Connors’ most famous strategies in MQL5 and apply them to intraday trading of the S&P 500 index CFD.

Moving Average and Stochastic Oscillator are very common indicators whose collective patterns we explored in the prior article, via a supervised learning network, to see which “patterns-would-stick”. We take our analyses from that article, a step further by considering the effects' reinforcement learning, when used with this trained network, would have on performance. Readers should note our testing is over a very limited time window. Nonetheless, we continue to harness the minimal coding requirements afforded by the MQL5 wizard in showcasing this.

This article explores the key operators used to modify the program's execution flow: conditional statements, loops, and switch statements. Utilizing these operators will allow the functions we create to behave more "intelligently".

Learn to build a Harmonic Pattern indicator in MQL5 using chart objects. Discover how to detect swing points, apply Fibonacci retracements, and automate pattern recognition.

This article explores optimizing RSI levels and periods for better trading signals. We introduce methods to estimate optimal RSI values and automate period selection using grid search and statistical models. Finally, we implement the solution in MQL5 while leveraging Python for analysis. Our approach aims to be pragmatic and straightforward to help you solve potentially complicated problems, with simplicity.

We invite you to get acquainted with the Hierarchical Vector Transformer (HiVT) method, which was developed for fast and accurate forecasting of multimodal time series.

In this article, we will take a practical and very visual look at the first loop statement. Although many beginners feel intimidated when faced with the task of creating loops, knowing how to do it correctly and safely can only come with experience and practice. But who knows, maybe I can reduce your troubles and suffering by showing you the main issues and precautions to take when using loops in your code.
