MT5_Python_Strategy_Framework

This project provides an experimental framework for integrating MetaTrader 5 (MT5) custom indicators and trading logic with Python-based data processing and strategy testing using Freqtrade.

Features

  • 🧠 Custom MT5 Libraries: Modular .mqh files to handle position sizing, drawdown control, order management, and utility functions.
  • 🐍 Python Scripts:
    • pre_process.py: Prepares or cleans data before indicator processing.
    • process_entry_indicators.py: Extracts and processes entry signals.
    • post_process_test.py: Analyses backtest output or result data.
  • 📦 Freqtrade-Compatible Module: Python strategies and helpers located in Python_freqtrade/ for integration with the Freqtrade framework.
  • 🛠️ Project Structure Support: Includes .idea/ and .vscode/ folders for JetBrains and VSCode IDE configurations.

Getting Started

Requirements

  • MetaTrader 5 with access to terminal64.exe
  • Python 3.8+
  • Optional: Freqtrade installed (pip install freqtrade)

Running Scripts

python pre_process.py
python process_entry_indicators.py
python post_process_test.py

MT5 Library Usage

Place the .mqh files from My_MQL5_Libs/ into your MQL5/Include folder to use them in your Expert Advisors or custom indicators.

Notes

  • This project is a scaffold for connecting MQL5 strategies to Python-based optimisation and analysis tools.
  • Actual EA logic, data formats, and strategy specifics should be customised to your use case.
