MQL For Traders: Learn To Build a MetaTrader Expert Advisor in One Day

About This Book

Learn MQL today. This book makes no assumptions about the MQL programming experience of the reader. The goal of this book is to teach a trader, with no programming experience, how to build a moderately sophisticated Expert Advisor in a single day.

This book is broken into modules, where each module addresses a specific goal. Generally each module builds upon information presented in previous modules.

At the start of each module, the objective of the module is defined along with a list of what will be covered. This is done so that a module can skipped if the reader is familiar with the objectives. Similarly, a module can be reread if the needed.

In order to meet the requirement of teaching a trader to build an Expert Advisor in a single day many subjects are quickly reviewed. This does not mean the subject is not important – but it is not so important that a complete and thorough understanding can’t be delayed until our first objective is met.

Within the module sections of the book, I have purposely tried to leave out as much information as possible. You don’t hear that every day! In other words, the module sections of the book introduce only the information that is essential to learn how to build an Expert Advisor.

The appendix of the book is used to provide deeper information on selected topics along with expanded examples. Where appropriate, there are references to the appendix throughout the module sections of the book.

If your goal is to reach the point where you can build an Expert Advisor as fast as possible, then ignore all references to the appendix or advanced topics.

If you have more time and are interested in increasing your depth of MQL programming, then spending the time to review the advanced information in the appendix will be time well spent.

Note: The appendix of this book is a living document. Updates will be made to the appendix based on user feedback and the introduction of new programming techniques.

I have gone through great effort to not use words or phrases specific to programming or MQL without defining them first. If you come across a word or phrase that you do not understand, and it is not defined in the book, it is probably not specific to programming or MQL. If you cannot find the meaning of a word, or you think it is a missed definition, please email me at: david.williams@iExpertAdvisor.com.

Preface

Writing the computer code to create an Expert Advisor has some similarities to writing a grammar school essay. They both have a very specific goal. For the Expert Advisor, the goal is to automate a trading system. For the essay, the goal is to communicate some information.

Each of these goals can be reached in many ways.

But when we are young – learning to write an essay for the first time – we are given a well-defined structure to follow. We are strongly advised to follow the rules of grammar until we are able to understand the subtle consequences of bending or breaking the rules. (My native language is English, but I assume that grammatical rules and structure of English are similarly applied to other languages).

In other words, when you get older, and have been writing for some time, you may bend or break the rules of grammar – as long as you fully understand the effect these changes will have on the goal of the essay.

After all, the real goal of the Essay is to communicate – not to write perfect grammar.

Similarly, the real goal of an Expert Advisor is automate a trading system – not to write perfect computer code.

The reason I make this comparison is because I am going to propose a framework for building an Expert Advisor. My own set of rules.

This framework is not the only way to build an Expert Advisor, as there are an infinite number of ways to build the same Expert Advisor. However, this framework and its rules provide a sound structure for a beginner. And like the student learning to write an essay, the trader learning to write an Expert Advisor should initially accept the rules as they are proposed. Later, as the trader’s knowledge of MQL programming increases, she can challenge the rules and the structure and apply her own creativity to the task of building an automated trading system.

 

MQL For Traders Will Help You Learn MQL

Learn to turn your own creative ideas into winning trading systems.

The base system, iStarter.mq4, which is used to exemplify The iExpertAdvisor Method, is a simple but complete Expert Advisor.

To learn what mechanical trading is really like, you need to actually run a system. Since the MetaTrader platform is free and widely available, you can start running a system within days of purchasing MQL For Traders.

Don’t waste your valuable time trying to learn MQL alone: Read MQL For Traders and learn in a few days what takes most traders months to learn.

Automatic Alpha Trading System: Reinforced with an MT4 Expert Advisor

Automatic Alpha: Trading System/MT4 Expert Advisor Ebook

Automatic Alpha Ebook: How to Build a Winning FOREX Trading System

Automatic Alpha Ebook: How to Build a Winning FOREX Trading System

This is a risk free opportunity for you to learn the art of building an automated trading system.  Keep reading to learn how we can offer this product to you without you risking a dime!


    What is Automatic Alpha?

Automatic Alpha is an 80+ page ebook that fully describes the process of developing a winning trading system. Building a winning trading system can be an illusive task.  Fact: Most traders will never develop a winning trading system without using the techniques described in Automatic Alpha.

Automatic Alpha introduces a framework, The Trading System Development Lifecycle, that completely describes trading system development.  Once a trader learns this framework they can immediately begin to develop their own winning trading systems.

The concepts described in Automatic Alpha are reinforced with the implementation of a fully automated trend following trading system, named AutoAlpha.

AutoAlpha is implemented using both MetaTrader versions 3.x and 4.x MQL languages.  The full MQL source code for both versions is provided with the ebook.

The AutoAlpha entry is viable on all pairs.  The AutoAlpha exit, as described in the ebook, was developed specifically for the highly-liquid, low-spread EUR/USD currency pair.

AutoAlpha is a medium-term trend-following system.  It opens, on average, about 2 trades per week.  The initial stoploss and takeprofit values are multiples of the 24-period ATR: the stoploss and takeprofit are usually within the range of 75 to 135 points.  Most trades last about 2-3 days.

View the equity curve of AutoAlpha below.  This graph depicts back-tested results from 5/2003-7/2005.  Only one lot is used per trade and all trading commissions are included.  AutoAlpha is a robust trend following system and has provided an average of 50 points per month over the last several years.  A trend-following system was chosen as the subject of Automatic Alpha because trend-following is one of the few strategies that has proven reliable over the long term.  The AutoAlpha trading system is similar to black box systems that are currently sold for thousands of dollars.

  

Automatic Alpha is both a comprehensive book – teaching you how to develop your own winning systems, and an actual trading system.  You can start running a winning trading system today.Here is the table of contents of Automatic Alpha.

 

Who should read Automatic Alpha?

  • Traders interested in building their own winning trading systems.
  • Traders that want to start running a winning trading system today.
  • Anybody interested in learning how most winning trading systems are outlined, developed, tested and finally qualified.

        Are you a chart-watching discretionary trader? 

  • Read Automatic Alpha to learn how to automate your manual trading system.

        Are you new to FOREX trading?

  • Learn the inherent advantages of mechanical system trading.  Get started off on the right foot and start running a winning trading system immediately

How will Automatic Alpha help you?

Learn to turn your own creative ideas into winning trading systems.

Learn to quickly determine if a trading strategy is worthy of further development effort.

Learn to build a robust trading system – one that has a very good chance of working in the future.

The base system, AutoAlpha, which is used to exemplify The Trading System Development Lifecycle, is a solid and robust system.  However, there is a very important chapter in Automatic Alpha which lists suggested improvements to AutoAlpha.  These improvements can be used to significantly improve the performance of the base system – and the exact implementation of these improvements will be yours and yours alone!

To learn what mechanical trading is really like, you need to actually run a system.  Since the MetaTrader platform is free and widely available, you can start running a system within hours of purchasing Automatic Alpha.

Don’t waste your valuable time learning the lessons that successful mechanical traders already know.  Read Automatic Alpha and learn in a few days what takes most traders years (and thousands of dollars) to learn.

Automatic Alpha is only $99 USD. The AutoAlpha trading system is implemented as an MT4 Expert Advisor. This includes the complete MQL source code (for both MetaTrader 3 and 4) of the AutoAlpha trading system.
