Indicators and EA Snippets for MetaTrader 5

:warning: MT4 abandoned. Only the code for MT5 is up to date and gets further updates.

Some MT5 indicators and tools I use for my trading. Feel free to contribute improvements and let me know your ideas.

My major developments are the Trade Manager, a Currency Strength indicator and a Pivot Points indicator. A special facility allows for up to 20 times faster backtesting of currency strength related strategies. A SQLite database is used to build up a store of currency strength data. This database can then be used for backtesting with the Trade Manager, or any other tool, without time consuming calculations.

For those who want to install everything in one shot, I have added a zip file of my entire MQL5 content. Just install a new MT5 terminal and replace the folder MQL5 with the content of the zip file. In options, charts, set max bars to 1000000, some tools need this.
