I have no idea how to start writing a trading system ! I read many ideas and strategy here, but how do I begin to create ? Where can I download some format which I can use to build on ? I downloaded some available on the internet but running back test there is no trade executed. I dont even know whether it is my setting, my programme, or simply the system does not work. Thanks

This tutorial addresses these questions and defines what a trading system is, and what it takes to design and implement one. If you are thinking of adopting a trading system, this is the place to learn about the skills and resources you'll need to do it.

There is new program out that helps writing Expert Advisors for MT4 easier.
It is version 2.0 with diagram based trade setup. Still in Beta but soon to be released.
