It starts with an observation about market behaviour and a question: can that observation be expressed clearly enough for the same decision to be made repeatedly? This lesson focuses on the bridge between an informal trading idea and an algorithmic specification. The objective is not to teach a particular profitable strategy, but to show how va

Platform, Demo Account and Execution Setup for Quantitative Strategy Testing Before a quantitative strategy can be tested properly, the research environment needs to be understood. A trading algorithm does not operate in isolation: market data, account specifications, platform settings, server connection and execution rules all influence what the program can observe and how it can act. This lesson uses MetaTrader 5 (MT5) as a practical example. The objective is not to select
