Getting Started
You can use the free Strategy Builder demo without creating an account. Design strategies visually, then when you are ready to generate MQL5 code and save strategies, sign up for an account.
The MQL5 & EA Academy has step-by-step articles: from environment setup and your first EA to risk management, backtesting in the Strategy Tester, VPS deployment, and common errors. You can also use the no-code Strategy Builder and export MQL5 without programming.
The public Strategy Builder demo is for trying the workflow without signup. A full account is required to save strategies in your workspace, manage strategy history, and use paid features such as MQL5 generation/export based on your plan. You can start in demo and upgrade later when you need full workflow access.
Strategy Builder and How It Works
The AlfaTactix Strategy Builder is a no-code tool that lets you define rule-based trading strategies step by step. You specify the strategy name and purpose, select different timeframes for trend, confirmation and entry signals, define indicators and entry/exit conditions, add market filters and finally configure risk management rules. All of this is done without writing a single line of code.
Yes. The Strategy Builder allows you to define completely independent entry and exit rules for Long and Short trades. These rules can share indicators or be completely different from each other.
Depending on your subscription plan, you can use 1 to 4 timeframes in a single strategy. Basic plans typically support 1 timeframe, the Free plan supports up to 3 timeframes, and Pro plans support up to 4 timeframes. See the Pricing page for exact details.
The Strategy Builder is not just a simple form; behind the scenes there is a validation system that checks the completeness and consistency of settings at each step. If a condition is missing a comparison side (left/right) or data types are incompatible, a specific error is shown. If the bracket structure or AND/OR combination is incomplete, you cannot proceed to the next step. If the combination of timeframes or filters conflicts with the strategy logic, clear warnings are displayed. This mechanism ensures your strategy is structurally valid before reaching the code generation stage.
Code Generator and Multi-Language Output
The Code Generator reads your structured strategy definition and converts it into executable trading code. The output is clean and modular (configuration, indicator calculations, entry/exit logic and risk management are separated) so you can easily work with it in research and execution environments.
Yes, but you need an active subscription to use the Code Generator. AlfaTactix architecture is designed so that a single saved strategy can be used by different Generator engines. Today one primary engine is active, and over time new engines for languages such as Python and chart-based scripting languages (like Pine Script) will be added.
It depends on the output language and the permissions of each subscription plan. For some languages and plans, the generated code is automatically editable. For others, you need to request access to the source code. See the Pricing page and Documentation for exact details.
Yes. Generated EAs are intended for standard MetaTrader 5 workflow: compile in MetaEditor, validate with Strategy Tester, then attach to charts on demo or live accounts. As with any automated strategy, start on a demo account first and verify behavior before going live.
Source-code access and export format can depend on your plan and current offer details. AlfaTactix highlights current availability on the Pricing page. If you need editable source for your workflow, check your plan details before purchase.
