Mt4 Ea Development Project

November 27th, 2009

Hello Irwin

I am in need of an expert programmer to help me develop a very complicated and technically challenging Expert Advisor in MQL4

I have made this project private as I want to select just the right man for this most important contract

While I expect to pay a fair and competitive price for any work done, my primary concern is not the price

It is to receive programming done with great precision and expertise

I also place great importance on good communication and a smooth working relationship

While you seem to have an excellent reputation for speedy work, this is also not a big concern for me

I would much rather you take all the time you need to produce excellent code and excellent results

In any event, each step in the project will require much testing by me before going on to the next step (24hrs – 48 hrs)

There will be many such steps

Since my long term goal is to go to a better platform/broker than MT4 – there would be much additional work required to convert 1000s of lines of MQL code into C+/Java and to interface it with an API using the FIX 3.4 protocol

I provide below a very simple outline of my proposed expert advisor – which I call Slipstream:

1 Primary Indicator – this is a digital filter

4 Secondary Indicators – these are also digital filters and communicate with the Primary

All of these have already been written but repaint badly and have some other minor problems

For the many hours of manual testing I have done so far, all these bugs are not a problem as I just ignore them

However, for automated trading – they will all have to be fixed, of course

All these indicators then have to be synchronized very precisely with standard price bars based on time (according to custom rules I have developed)

However, this becomes more complicated because I usually work in Multi-Time Frames simultaneously

While looking at my base chart of M15 – an M30 – M60 – M240 charts are also being calculated at the same time

When certain patterns of alignment appear – then I trade

As long as these patterns stay together – the trade continues

When the pattern breaks up – I exit immediately and wait for the next pattern to develop and so on …….

These trades are usually longer term – not of the short scalping kind

Since these filters are digital – they seem to work on any currency, index, stocks etc.

In addition, I have recently completed much testing on Renko Bars and Constant Range Bars (CRB) with excellent results

As well, I have custom code for VRenko – which are bars that are “not” exactly identical but change slightly according to the ATR of recent trading activity

Also, I have Variable Range Bars (VRB) which are similar to VRenko

Following along with the same concepts as Multi-Frame Trading – I also want to look at 2 Renkos (i.e M9 & M15) simultaneously – wait for the alignment and then trade

The same possibility exists for CRBs as well

Of course, any good EA will also need standard features such as: money management, stop losses, handling of requotes, platform disconnects, etc

As I said , this is a big project !

I see that you prefer payment with Scriptlance – this is fine for me as well

Unfortunately, my typing is rather slow – arthritis – so I would prefer to work by email and Skype and/or Yahoo Messenger Voice

In addition, I have setup my primary server for remote collaboration – TeamViewer Remote & Whiteboard – where we can both work at the same time when needed

For agreeing on the cost of this project – I would propose that we do it – one step at a time

I will provide you with detailed specifications for each step and then you can calculate the cost

I will also provide source code of whatever sections of the project that are already done

If you are available and this project interests you – please contact me as soon as possible

I look forward to hearing from you

My Best Regards
