I need an automated trading algorithm that applies a pure trend-following approach on the forex market. The system should scan short-term charts—think minutes up to a few hours—detect emerging trends, and handle everything from entry to exit, including stop-loss and dynamic take-profit management. I’m open to your preferred stack: MetaTrader 4/5 with MQL, cTrader’s cAlgo, or a Python-based solution that hooks into a reliable broker API are all fine so long as execution is fast and the strategy logic is transparent in the code. Solid risk-controls, adjustable position sizing, and the ability to switch lot sizes on the fly are must-haves. • Deliverable 1: Clean, well-commented source code • Deliverable 2: Back-test report covering at least one year of tick data, showing net P/L, drawdown, and key ratios • Deliverable 3: Quick-start guide so I can deploy the algo on my own platform in under 30 minutes Acceptance criteria: the back-test should show a positive expectancy, max drawdown below 15 %, and stable performance across three adjacent short-term time frames. Let me know which platform you prefer, any data requirements, and the turnaround time you’ll need.
