How can I create my own trading robot

Hello,

Can anybody guide me how to create a trading robot and deploy it? I have a new strategy on paper which I want to backtest and then run live using robot.

Thanks
Sal

Do you have basic knowledge on it? Or you are expecting advance guideline here?

Yeah, the question is what background do you have. If you know how to program, you can just jump straight to GitHub but if you don’t have coding skills, you need to develop them first or get yourself someone who’ll code what you need.

Hey @sach_nyc, Coding Bots and Indicators is not something you will learn in 5 mins…unless you have a programing/software background in either C++ or C#. Below are links to both MT4/5, Ctrader 3.0 and TradingView algorithmic code libraries where 100’s of EA’s, Strategies and Indicators are available for free, trial or purchase.

With 1000’s of strategies tried and tested over the last decade or so, you may even find the same or a very similar strategy to the one you have on paper…

Good Luck, hope this is of help…

I do have over a decade of .net development experience. but I prefer some sort of strategy builder which I can use to set criteria to open a trade, close it and so on. any ideas? I will look in to TV and Mql5 links given

i have .net development experience. I asked a guy to code my EA on upwork, and he is asking $150…is it justified?

With so many indicators and scripts available, why can’t I pick one which is profitable and start making loads of money. :)…what I am missing here?

I see; maybe EA develop based forum will be handy for you.

Hey @sach_nyc, you may find this application “FXQuant” more to your skill set.

It’s a Code / Strategy generator for both MT4 (C++) and Ctrader (C#), may be of some help with building the algorithm you are looking for… Cheers.

It depends. What is the strategy you want to code? If it’s simple, then it can probably be done in a couple of hours. The likelihood is that it won’t make money so has cost you $150 for a pig in a poke.

You’d be better off learning to code it yourself. If you’ve got C++ experience, MQL5 is a piece of cake. There are loads of tutorials for how to code specific strategies on youtube, follow some of these through and you’ll be able to do it in no time if you’re even a moderately skilled programmer.
