Tutorial on programming EA for MT4?

Hi guys

Does anyone know a good tutorial website for programming MT4 ?

Mick

Nope, but you must be one of the few Scottish people into Forex! :smiley:

Do you know of any others, thinking about starting a group if i can find enough people?

cheers

Glasgow Neil.

fantastic.

I was thinking of starting a group too. Dont know anyone else, though a friend here is showing an interest.

MT4 programming is based on C++. Find a good C++ tutorial and you have a good MT4 programming tutorial! :slight_smile:

Ok C++ it is.

I know you guys are going to hate this, but when I think of a Scottish trader I can’t help but picture Scotty from Star Trek screaming, “I’m tradin’ all we’ve got Capt’n, but we dunna have the margin… The account’s gonna blow!!”

Haha :slight_smile:

mql4.com

mql4 is more like c than c++
c++ is an object orientated language based on c

mql4 is a c style structured language, if you learn syntax for the c language and study the mql4 book (downloadable from mql4.com) you will be in good shape to start programming your own EA

Good point… It is actually closer to C than C++. :slight_smile:

I just posted an excellent tutorial anyone can learn, but I am not qualified to post a link to it yet. Just search Google for “C++ Tutorial (1) - Absolute n00b spoonfeed” on YouTube. Easiest programming tutorial you will ever take.
