After a little e-mail conversation with one of my site’s visitors about the statistical expert advisor, example of which I shared publicly in August 2008, I’ve remembered about a more advanced version, which, while still isn’t profitable, can be a much better example and foundation for the future self-learning statistical EAs …

I’ve done my first conversion of the MT4 EA to MT5. Although it’s not my first EA written for MT5 (the first one was AUD/JPY Wednesday 15:00), it’s the first one converted. I must say that I was quite pleased with the MQL5 and the whole MetaTrader 5 during this conversion process. The pull-back …

Why to avoid paid Forex robots or expert advisors? There are several reasons but most obvious one is quite simple — they don’t work as advertised. First, let’s get straight with the definitions — Forex robots are the same as the automated expert advisors, they are some trading strategies …

When using some MT4 expert advisors you may have encountered a rather annoying error message, which reads «OrderSend Error 129». This error should be avoided during EA’s creation, but even if you aren’t the author of the problematic EA, this error is rather easy to fix.
