Transparent MetaTrader 5 pricing guide
Understand what changes the cost of a custom MQL5 Expert Advisor, what a bounded EUR 249 entry build includes and when a EUR 39 specification should come first.
Price the smallest complete workflow that can be accepted independently. Additional symbols, strategies, dashboards and integrations should not be hidden inside an undefined first build.
A EUR 39 specification audit is the safer first milestone when timing, state transitions or acceptance examples are unresolved. A bounded implementation can start at EUR 249 only after those decisions are explicit.
A crossover may be simple, but cooldowns, re-entry, partial exits, break-even, trailing and daily locks create separate states that must be implemented and tested.
State whether the EA manages only its own magic number, one symbol, all symbols or manual trades. Broader authority increases both risk and verification effort.
Fixed lots are smaller in scope than cash-risk sizing with tick-value validation, broker-volume rounding, stop-distance checks and failure handling.
Account mode, symbol properties, filling modes, server time and terminal build determine how much environment-specific validation is required.
Custom indicators, DLLs, APIs, paid data, licensing and connector services must be identified before a fixed quote. Hidden dependencies are not a valid acceptance plan.
Panels, chart objects, reports and multilingual controls are real product work. Quote them separately from the underlying entry, exit and risk state machine.
At least one must-trade, one must-not-trade and relevant boundary or restart cases reduce ambiguity and make a fixed price more reliable.
Define what counts as a defect against the frozen requirements, how many correction rounds are included and whether future strategy changes are a new milestone.
The current StratCoreAlpha entry implementation starts at EUR 249 for one bounded, explicitly specified workflow. A EUR 39 specification audit can come first when key rules are unresolved. Multi-strategy logic, integrations, custom interfaces and broader testing require a separate fixed quote.
Terms such as trend, confirmation, risk control or smart exit do not define software behavior. A reliable quote needs exact timing, formulas, state transitions, broker assumptions and acceptance examples.
No. Implementation is accepted against agreed software behavior. Parameter optimization, data research and strategy validation are separate scopes, and profitability or drawdown outcomes are never guaranteed.
Yes for the agreed implementation scope. Any third-party or separately licensed dependency must be disclosed before the order and cannot be silently withheld behind a private strategy library.
