Algorithmic Trading In MQL5: Code Robots & Free Up Your Time udemy course free download

Learn How To Code A Trading Robot From Scratch In The MQL5 Programming Language For MT5 + Trading Bot (Forex, CFDs ...)

In this course, you will learn how to fully automate your trading using MetaTrader 5 trading robots (expert advisors). We will code an expert advisor from scratch that can trade in different financial markets, such as forex, cryptocurrencies, indices, commodities, and stocks.

The course is organized into 2 blocks and 12 sections.

BLOCK 1: MQL5 PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE

In section 1, we will review the MetaTrader 5 (MT5) platform and introduce the MQL5 programming language and its applications.

In sections 2 to 5, we will cover the fundamentals of the MQL5 language. In these sections, we will address all the basic features of the language, with plenty of examples and exercises closely related to trading.

This way, the course will offer you practical, engaging, and interesting content while being concise to fast-track you to the most exciting part, sections 6 to 12.

BLOCK 2: METATRADER 5 EXPERT ADVISOR  CODING

This block begins with section 6, where we will introduce you to expert advisors and share a widely known trading system that has been extensively used in the past.

In sections 7 to 11, we will apply all the knowledge acquired in previous lessons to code a trading robot that automates a trading system and trades uninterrupted as long as the markets are open.

We will equip our expert advisor with a structure that serves as a framework for other projects, including triggers for entry and exit points.

Additionally, we will include basic aspects of position management, such as placing stop loss and take profit orders, as well as more advanced management like trailing stop loss and break-even.

Finally, in section 12, we will validate the system. To do this, we will subject the expert advisor to backtesting against historical data to ensure the code is correct.

Ultimately, we will deploy it in forex, stocks, indices, and commodities markets in a trading account. This will allow us to validate that the robot works both in a trading account and in simulation.

Now is the right time to learn algorithmic trading.

In today’s modern markets, the share of algorithmic trading in volume terms stands around 70-80 per cent, and there are several reasons for that:

1. Algorithmic trading allows you to trade as many strategies or markets as your computing power provides, overcoming human limitations that constrain manual traders.

2. Automating your strategies frees up time from repetitive screening of the markets that you can then allocate to research, leisure, or other activities. Furthermore, robots can trade 24/7 which mean they can trade any session, at any time and without rest, which is impossible to do for a single human.

3. Emotionless and error-free. Algorithms read patterns and apply pre-established coded rules without experiencing fear or any other emotions, which means that robots do not commit mistakes, programmers do.

4. Algorithmic trading will not only automate your trading, but also it is the first step to trade like a quant, which means that every decision you take will be backed by data and statistics that will be provided by your algorithms and this will increase your chances of success in the markets.

5. Backtesting and optimization is much faster and comprehensive through algorithms than through manual means with spreadsheets, which will allows you to know the performance of a strategy in the past and, again, increase your chances of success in the markets.
