This book was written for all of those that have wondered if they could possibly learn to write their own programs for Metatrader4. If you are an absolute beginner and know nothing about programming languages or where to even begin, this book is for you. Five years ago I was where you are now, wanting to learn how to automate my manual trading strategy into a trading robot so that I could spend less time in front of the computer and more time living life. After several years of persistent studying, I was able to write my own programs for myself and others and share them with friends. Some of them have been marketed successfully all over the world and are still in use to this very day. A couple of years ago I began putting videos on Youtube under the name of Jmdandy1958. I discovered something about myself that I did not know. Not only do I get a great satisfaction from teaching, but, I also seem to be able to make the complicated seem simple to my students. After much demand I put up a site called JimdandyForex.com where my viewers could download the files that I wrote in my Youtube videos. As demand grew, I decided to develop a more structured video series at JimdandyMql4Courses.com that starts with the fundamentals and works it's way up to the writing of robust trading programs. By progressing through the 4 levels of that course, students are able to program their own software as well as download some valuable trading programs that I have written. Along the way, many times my students have asked for written material. This book in a way is an experiment. I am really interested in knowing if I can in fact, accomplish in writing what I am able to convey in my videos. Can I really make it easy for you to learn this language? This language underwent a major change in February of 2014 causing a great deal of confusion. Any book written on the subject before that date will contain outdated information that no longer works.
