Expert Advisors in MetaTrader 4

Expert Advisors in the MT4 trading platform introduces traders to automatic market analysis. With built-in MQL4 language for programming indicators and EA's, this technology establishes automated trading routines 24 hours, 5 days a week.

• Avoid everyday manual trading by automating and monitoring the process;
• Enhance decision making precision;
• Monitor market conditions.

MetaQuotes Language 4 is used to write:

• Expert Advisors – mechanical trading systems which can be used either for trading alerts or for trading and monitoring orders (automatically without your presence);
• Custom Indicators – indicators created by you or other users of MetaTrader 4 client terminal in addition to the in-built technical indicators, integrated into MetaTrader 4;
• Scripts – modules which execute repeated actions;
• Libraries - frequently used user's programs.

MetaQuotes Language 4 allows you to call functions from the external dll-libraries and get access to the computer file system. This makes it possible to implement trading strategies of ANY complexity.

The new Expert Advisors testing technology uses historic data. Using this data you can test the effectiveness of your trading strategies, usually within a few minutes.

MetaQuotes Language 4 is very easy to learn and understand even for those who have no or limited experience as computer programmers.
