Modern MQL5 Automation Lab

1. Goal of This Curriculum

The purpose of this site is simple — to help you reach the point where you can run your own MQL5 program. Once you can make MetaTrader 5 respond to your code, you’re ready to explore the deeper topics covered in the printed book.

2. How to Proceed

Read each section in order. Every section is a separate post explaining one concrete step. Each post follows the same structure:

• Overview
• What You Will Be Able to Do
• Code Example
• Execution Steps
• One-line Conclusion

This structure keeps learning consistent and lets you follow a clear, incremental path.
