MQL - Programmes Expert Advisors Expert Advisors are the most interesting MQL scripts. They provide ability to find best market entry points (of course thanks to pre – programmed logic). The Expert Advisors can place the order on behalf of investor, show or send proper information, or do both. It depends on what the investor really needs. The MQL Expert Advisors bases mostly on technical analysis indicators, but there is a variety of strategies which can be implemented as Advisor and have nothing in common with classical technical analysis. For example Expert Advisor can calculate correlation between two instruments, and open trades accordingly to changes of correlation in time. MQL gives ability to write Expert Advisor that finds patterns between many instruments. It’s even possible to use neural networks and other sophisticated methods of data analysis. Indicators Technical Analysis Indicators are special scripts which draws the indicator objects (lines, dots, marks, etc.) directly on chart. Of course there is calculation algorithm beneath. The algorithm is responsible for values of indicator in each step of time. For example Moving Average algorithm takes prices for given time period, sum the prices, and then divides by number of periods. For next period the algorithm will do the same, but the data which will be taken for calculations will be moved by one period. The result is continuous line which represents values of moving average during the time period covered by chart. Scripts Scripts are the programs which allow to do simple, repetitive operations automatically. Normally, when user run the script, the script will do their work, and then it will turn off. For example, the scripts can be used for: Closing all (pending) positions Calculate data (minimal amount of money needed to open position, etc.)v Write data on chart Check connection, trading availability, etc. Converting and saving data from charts Scripts are especially good for maintenance operations which done manually will take time.

TradingStrategies-Martingale http://www.earnforex.com/forex-strategy/martingale-trading-system Martingale trading system — is based on the popular betting (gambling) system of the 18th century France. The main principle of this system is to double the bet each time you lose so that if you win (considering a 100% bet win/loss each time) you recover a previous loss and will also gain the first bet amount. If one had an infinite amount of money, this strategy would be a sure-fire thing as with the infinite amount of bets the necessary result will with probability 1 eventually come. The problem is that no trader possesses an infinite wealth and thus utilizing this strategy eventually leads to a wiped account. Although it's a very popular Forex trading system and is used in many paid Forex expert advisors, I strongly don't recommend trading with it. How to Trade? Any currency pair and timeframe will work. Determine your basic position size. Place an order in a random direction (Buy or Sell) with some fixed stop-loss and the same take-profit. After the SL or TP is triggered you either win or lose. If you win, set the position size to the initial and go the step 3. If you lose, double the position size and go to step 3. If you have infinite trading account balance, eventually you'll win a lot. If your account balance is limited you'll lose it eventually. Example No example chart is present for this trading system as there is nothing important to be shown on the chart. Let's view the following example. You start with $10,000 account and can trade with mini Forex lots (0.1 of the standard lot) and decide to trade on EUR/USD. You define your basic position size as 0.1 lots. You decide to go Long setting stop-loss at 40 pips (or $4). The take-profit is set to the same value. You lose the position. Now your account balance is $9,996. You double your next position size to 0.2 lots, so that using the same stop-loss and take-profit levels you risk $8 and also have a chance to win $8. You decide to change the position's direction and go Short. You win and now you've recovered lost $4 and also won $4. Your account balance is $10,004. You return your position to initial 0.1 lots and start over. With $10,000 account balance and $4 basic risk value you'll have to lose 11 positions in a row to wipe your account. You'll have to win 250 positions to double your balance. Warning! Use this strategy at your own risk. EarnForex.com can't be responsible for any losses associated with using any strategy presented on the site. It's not recommended to use this strategy on the real account without testing it on demo first. FOREX www.forex2tradeindia.weebly.com Features Theoretically bullet-proof system. Practically unsound.
