Functions are critical things in any programming language, it helps developers apply the concept of (DRY) which means do not repeat yourself, and many other benefits. In this article, you will find much more information about functions and how we can create our own functions in MQL5 with simple applications that can be used or called in any system you have to enrich your trading system without complicating things.
Revisiting an Old Trend Trading Strategy: Two Stochastic oscillators, a MA and Fibonacci
Revisiting an Old Trend Trading Strategy: Two Stochastic oscillators, a MA and Fibonacci
Old trading strategies. This article presents one of the strategies used to follow the trend in a purely technical way. The strategy is purely technical and uses a few technical indicators and tools to deliver signals and targets. The components of the strategy are as follows: A 14-period stochastic oscillator. A 5-period stochastic oscillator. A 200-period moving average. A Fibonacci projection tool (for target setting).

Creating Graphical Panels Became Easy in MQL5
In this article, we will provide a simple and easy guide to anyone who needs to create one of the most valuable and helpful tools in trading which is the graphical panel to simplify and ease doing tasks around trading which helps to save time and focus more on your trading process itself without any distractions.
Can Heiken-Ashi Combined With Moving Averages Provide Good Signals Together?
Can Heiken-Ashi Combined With Moving Averages Provide Good Signals Together?
Combinations of strategies may offer better opportunities. We can combine indicators or patterns together, or even better, indicators with patterns, so that we get an extra confirmation factor. Moving averages help us confirm and ride the trend. They are the most known technical indicators and this is because of their simplicity and their proven track record of adding value to analyses.

Understanding MQL5 Object-Oriented Programming (OOP)
Understanding MQL5 Object-Oriented Programming (OOP)
As developers, we need to learn how to create and develop software that can be reusable and flexible without duplicated code especially if we have different objects with different behaviors. This can be smoothly done by using object-oriented programming techniques and principles. In this article, we will present the basics of MQL5 Object-Oriented programming to understand how we can use principles and practices of this critical topic in our software.
Simple Mean Reversion Trading Strategy
Simple Mean Reversion Trading Strategy
Mean reversion is a type of contrarian trading where the trader expects the price to return to some form of equilibrium which is generally measured by a mean or another central tendency statistic.
Category Theory in MQL5 (Part 11): Graphs
Category Theory in MQL5 (Part 11): Graphs
This article is a continuation in a series that look at Category Theory implementation in MQL5. In here we examine how Graph-Theory could be integrated with monoids and other data structures when developing a close-out strategy to a trading system.
Multilayer perceptron and backpropagation algorithm (Part 3): Integration with the Strategy Tester - Overview (I).
Multilayer perceptron and backpropagation algorithm (Part 3): Integration with the Strategy Tester - Overview (I).
The multilayer perceptron is an evolution of the simple perceptron which can solve non-linear separable problems. Together with the backpropagation algorithm, this neural network can be effectively trained. In Part 3 of the Multilayer Perceptron and Backpropagation series, we'll see how to integrate this technique into the Strategy Tester. This integration will allow the use of complex data analysis aimed at making better decisions to optimize your trading strategies. In this article, we will discuss the advantages and problems of this technique.
Rebuy algorithm: Math model for increasing efficiency
Rebuy algorithm: Math model for increasing efficiency
In this article, we will use the rebuy algorithm for a deeper understanding of the efficiency of trading systems and start working on the general principles of improving trading efficiency using mathematics and logic, as well as apply the most non-standard methods of increasing efficiency in terms of using absolutely any trading system.
How to create a custom Donchian Channel indicator using MQL5
How to create a custom Donchian Channel indicator using MQL5
There are many technical tools that can be used to visualize a channel surrounding prices, One of these tools is the Donchian Channel indicator. In this article, we will learn how to create the Donchian Channel indicator and how we can trade it as a custom indicator using EA.
Category Theory in MQL5 (Part 8): Monoids
Category Theory in MQL5 (Part 8): Monoids
This article continues the series on category theory implementation in MQL5. Here we introduce monoids as domain (set) that sets category theory apart from other data classification methods by including rules and an identity element.
Creating an EA that works automatically (Part 12): Automation (IV)
Creating an EA that works automatically (Part 12): Automation (IV)
If you think automated systems are simple, then you probably don't fully understand what it takes to create them. In this article, we will talk about the problem that kills a lot of Expert Advisors. The indiscriminate triggering of orders is a possible solution to this problem.
Creating an EA that works automatically (Part 10): Automation (II)
Creating an EA that works automatically (Part 10): Automation (II)
Automation means nothing if you cannot control its schedule. No worker can be efficient working 24 hours a day. However, many believe that an automated system should operate 24 hours a day. But it is always good to have means to set a working time range for the EA. In this article, we will consider how to properly set such a time range.
Creating an EA that works automatically (Part 09): Automation (I)
Creating an EA that works automatically (Part 09): Automation (I)
Although the creation of an automated EA is not a very difficult task, however, many mistakes can be made without the necessary knowledge. In this article, we will look at how to build the first level of automation, which consists in creating a trigger to activate breakeven and a trailing stop level.
Experiments with neural networks (Part 4): Templates
Experiments with neural networks (Part 4): Templates
In this article, I will use experimentation and non-standard approaches to develop a profitable trading system and check whether neural networks can be of any help for traders. MetaTrader 5 as a self-sufficient tool for using neural networks in trading. Simple explanation.
Neural networks made easy (Part 36): Relational Reinforcement Learning
Neural networks made easy (Part 36): Relational Reinforcement Learning
In the reinforcement learning models we discussed in previous article, we used various variants of convolutional networks that are able to identify various objects in the original data. The main advantage of convolutional networks is the ability to identify objects regardless of their location. At the same time, convolutional networks do not always perform well when there are various deformations of objects and noise. These are the issues which the relational model can solve.
Category Theory in MQL5 (Part 6): Monomorphic Pull-Backs and Epimorphic Push-Outs
Category Theory in MQL5 (Part 6): Monomorphic Pull-Backs and Epimorphic Push-Outs
Category Theory is a diverse and expanding branch of Mathematics which is only recently getting some coverage in the MQL5 community. These series of articles look to explore and examine some of its concepts & axioms with the overall goal of establishing an open library that provides insight while also hopefully furthering the use of this remarkable field in Traders' strategy development.
Alan Andrews and his methods of time series analysis
Alan Andrews and his methods of time series analysis
Alan Andrews is one of the most famous "educators" of the modern world in the field of trading. His "pitchfork" is included in almost all modern quote analysis programs. But most traders do not use even a fraction of the opportunities that this tool provides. Besides, Andrews' original training course includes a description not only of the pitchfork (although it remains the main tool), but also of some other useful constructions. The article provides an insight into the marvelous chart analysis methods that Andrews taught in his original course. Beware, there will be a lot of images.
