All 21 chapters

Part I · Understand

01

What an EA really is

EA, indicator or script; how MT5 runs an EA tick by tick; what AI does and doesn't do; why there is no holy-grail EA.

02

Four ways to trade

Scalping, breakout, mean reversion and trend: how each makes money, when each fails, which conditions suit it.

03

Market analysis for EA builders

Sessions, spread, volatility, liquidity and news, and how forex, gold and indices behave differently.

04

Risk: what keeps you in the game

Risk per trade, lot sizing, drawdown and daily loss limits; why OBSIRYN never uses martingale, grid or hedging recovery.

05

MQL5 in plain words

What to recognise, not master: inputs, comments and functions; reading an inputs section; MT4 against MT5.

Part II · Set up

06

MT5 and MetaEditor, step by step

A demo account, exact symbol names, where EA files go, compiling, attaching an EA and when a VPS helps.

07

Setting up your AI assistant

Claude (recommended), ChatGPT or Gemini; the setup page; how to paste compile errors and reports back.

Part III · Build

08

The OBSIRYN Coding Standard

The numbered rulebook every EA follows: risk, a hard stop loss, filters, broker checks.

09

Path A: your own strategy

The structured intake that turns a vague idea into precise rules.

10

Path B: OBSIRYN strategies

Scalping, breakout, mean reversion and trend, explained and ready to build.

13

Fixing and improving your EA

Common compile errors, the AI's typical MQL5 mistakes, the "EA isn't trading" checklist, one change at a time.

Part IV · Check, test, launch

14

Check your EA does what you meant

A visual Strategy Tester checklist: match every trade to a rule, prove the stop loss always fires and risk limits hold.

15

Backtesting properly

Real ticks and variable spread, reading the report, red flags such as overfitting, out-of-sample testing.

16

Your Performance Sheet

Simulated past results from your own backtest, on your account size. Never a forecast.

17

Demo testing

At least four weeks: what to log, and how to compare demo with backtest.

18

Going live

The Start Small ladder, running 24/5 on a desktop or VPS, monitoring, and when to switch an EA off.

19

Prop Firm Mode

Common prop-firm rules and the settings that respect them.

Elite

Part V · Keep building

20

The Prompt Library

Every prompt in the book on one quick-reference spread: build, check, fix, convert, test, launch.

21

Your skills menu

Each reusable skill in plain words: what it does, why it saves time, how to call it.
