Make the strategy your own.
With the source in your hands, your ideas can go further than the settings panel.
No extra dependencies to install
Open your source in MetaEditor and start building. Projects use self-contained code or the standard libraries already included with MT5.
Unlimited personal use
Study, customise and trade on your own accounts. Your EA source gives you the freedom to keep refining your ideas.
Pay once. No activation or usage fees.
One purchase per source project. MQLume does not charge by the number of activations or uses.
Vibe coding. Your trading judgement.
Bring your ideas to an AI coding assistant. Use the editable MQL5 project as your starting point, and stay in control of every change.
Describe your idea
Ask for a session filter, clearer logging or a different risk rule.
Review the change
Read the proposed code, check the logic and compile it in MetaEditor.
Test your version
Compare backtests, then test on a demo account before considering live use.
Use an AI tool of your choice; no AI subscription is included. Review generated code and keep your source private. Better tools support your process, but do not guarantee trading profits.

Position sizing and spread
Choose fixed lots or balance-based automatic sizing. Automatic volume uses balance × Inp_Lot_Percent ÷ 1,000,000 before applicable volume adjustments and broker limits. This value is a sizing coefficient, not a guaranteed loss percentage.
| Source input key | Initial value |
|---|---|
Fixed-lot mode (if false, uses floating % below)InpUseFixedLot | false |
Fixed lot size (used only when InpUseFixedLot = true)InpFixedLot | 0.01 |
Floating lot - balance * value / 1,000,000 (default 11.6)Inp_Lot_Percent | 11.6 |
Max orders at one price (0 = off) - e.g. 1: never two of this cInpMaxAtPrice | 0 |
Max spread (points) - skip placement if exceeded (0=disabled, dInpMaxSpreadPoints | 300 |
Account protection
Configure daily loss, starting-balance loss and drawdown limits. Zero disables the relevant threshold. Decide whether a limit closes positions or only stops new entries.
| Source input key | Initial value |
|---|---|
Daily loss limit, % (0 = off) - e.g. 4: no new trades for the dInpPropDailyLoss | 0 |
Max loss limit, % of the start balance (0 = off) - e.g. 10: stoInpPropMaxLoss | 0 |
Max drawdown from the highest balance, % (0 = off) - e.g. 15: sInpPropMaxDD | 0 |
Max drawdown from the current balance, % (0 = off) - e.g. 20: sInpPropMaxDDBal | 0 |

FTMO mode: day starts at midnight CE(S)T, all trades closed befInpPropFTMO | false |
Randomize orders: each order +-$0.30 in price and +-5% in lot, InpPropRandom | false |
Protection profile
Choose the protection preset for the selected strategy. Read the parameter handbook before combining strategy and protection choices.
| Source input key | Initial value |

Break-even and diagnostics
Select tick-based or M1-based break-even checks. Optional tester diagnostics compare the ranking simulator over the chosen history window.
| Source input key | Initial value |
|---|---|
Break-even: arm/check on every tick (true) or once per M1 bar (InpBeOnTick | true |
