MetaTrader & MQL Development Services
Expert Advisors, Indicators, and Scripts for MT4 and MT5
MetaTrader is the most widely deployed retail trading platform in the world. MQL4 and MQL5 power millions of Expert Advisors across forex, CFDs, and futures. We build EAs and indicators that work reliably in production — not just in the strategy tester.
What We Build
Expert Advisors (EAs)
Fully automated trading systems with proper order management, error handling, and recovery logic. Multi-pair, multi-timeframe, with configurable risk parameters. Built to run unattended on VPS.
Custom Indicators
Technical analysis tools rendered on-chart or in separate windows. Multi-timeframe, multi-symbol, with alert capabilities. Optimized for real-time calculation without lagging the terminal.
Scripts & Utilities
One-time execution tools: trade copiers, account reporting, position management utilities, lot size calculators, session managers. The operational tools that make trading easier.
Panel & Dashboard EAs
On-chart graphical interfaces for manual and semi-automated trading. Order entry panels, multi-pair dashboards, risk calculators — all within the MT terminal.
Signal & Copy Trading Systems
Master-slave architectures for trade copying across accounts. Local network or remote via API. Proper handling of different account sizes, symbol mappings, and latency.
Our Expertise
- MQL4 and MQL5 — Full fluency in both. We know the differences and the migration path.
- Order management — Proper handling of requotes, slippage, partial fills, and broker-specific behavior
- Multi-pair EAs — Single EA managing positions across multiple instruments
- Optimization — Strategy tester configuration, genetic optimization, out-of-sample testing
- VPS deployment — Configuration for reliable 24/5 unattended operation
- Broker compatibility — ECN vs. market maker handling, 4/5-digit pricing, different stop level requirements
- DLL integration — When MQL isn’t enough, we bridge to C++ or external libraries
Common Projects
Forex Strategy Automation
Your manual forex approach — coded into an EA that executes without emotion. Session filters, news avoidance, multi-timeframe confirmation. The works.
Prop Firm EA Development
EAs built to pass prop firm challenges and funded account rules. Drawdown limits, daily loss caps, consistency rules — all built into the logic. No grid, no martingale (unless that’s specifically your approach).
MT4 to MT5 Migration
MT4’s end-of-life is approaching. We rebuild your EAs and indicators in MQL5, taking advantage of the improved language features and multi-threaded backtesting.
Trade Management Tools
Trailing stops, breakeven logic, partial take-profits, time-based exits — added to your existing manual trading workflow as a utility EA.
