Description
In this course you will learn how to code with object-oriented programming and some advanced techniques that many algo-traders use in their every-day trading, including your instructor.
This course is structured in three parts.
In the first part we will focus on how to code object-oriented programming in MQL5. We will cover the theory while maintaining a practical approach.
In the second part we will take the expert advisor that we built in the previous course, and we will rebuild that robot with classes and objects of our own. In case that you did not complete the previous course, there is a copy of that expert advisor available for download, so you can follow along with the lectures.
In the third part we will add new-advanced features to our rebuilt expert advisor.
First, we will cover everything about pending orders and we will create a version of our robot that trades with them. Next, we will code a trading timer and make our expert trade only during the time specified. Following that, we will learn about volatility, different methods to calculate volatility, and we will implement and use volatility in our EA. Finally, we will learn about risk management and we will implement a technique to manage the risk we take in our positions.
