Hi, I'm Amr Sakr, a Preferred Freelancer with 13+ years of software engineering experience. I build robust, production-grade software across multiple domains, with a particular specialization in algorithmic trading systems. I'm equally comfortable architecting a complex Expert Advisor, delivering a full-stack web application, automating a manual workflow, building a Telegram bot, or extracting data at scale from the web. Hundreds of clients have hired me for one type of project and returned for something completely different, because the underlying engineering quality and communication is consistent. What I build: Trading Systems (my deepest niche) • MetaTrader 4 and 5: Expert Advisors, custom indicators, scripts, optimization, backtesting • TradingView: Pine Script strategies, screeners, alert systems • NinjaTrader and similar platforms: automated strategies and indicators Software Engineering (broader practice) • Backend and APIs: C#, .NET, ASP.NET Core, SQL Server, RESTful services • Desktop Applications: WPF, Windows Forms, native Windows tooling • Web Applications: full-stack builds, dashboards, admin panels, integrations • Automation and Scraping: data extraction, scheduled jobs, workflow automation, Python tooling • Bots and Conversational Tools: Telegram bots, Discord bots, chatbot integrations, alert and notification systems • Integrations: payment gateways, third-party APIs, brokerage connections How I work: structured phased delivery, transparent milestones, no hidden scope-creep charges, deep requirements alignment before coding, and unlimited post-delivery support. I'm comfortable joining Zoom or screen-share sessions for briefs, walkthroughs, and live debugging. NDAs welcome. Whether you need a high-performance trading bot, a custom internal tool, a Telegram bot, a scraper that survives anti-bot defenses, or a full-stack web app, message me to discuss your project.

A MetaTrader 4 developer builds custom Expert Advisors, indicators, and scripts in MQL4 for the MetaTrader 4 trading platform, automating strategies and extending the terminal's functionality for retail and institutional traders. Hiring a skilled MetaTrader 4 developer turns trading ideas into executable algorithms that backtest cleanly, run reliably on a VPS, and follow strict risk-management rules around the clock.
MetaTrader 4 (MT4) remains one of the most widely used retail forex platforms, and a freelance MT4 programmer translates trading logic into code that the terminal can execute without manual intervention. The work goes far beyond writing a few lines of MQL4 — it covers strategy design, backtesting, optimization, and deployment to a live brokerage account.
Typical deliverables from a MetaTrader 4 expert include:
Commercially, the value is straightforward: automation removes emotional execution, enforces discipline, and lets a strategy operate across sessions and instruments simultaneously.
The MetaTrader 4 ecosystem has its own toolchain, and a competent developer is fluent across it.
MetaTrader 4 development is concentrated in the retail trading and prop trading space, but the use cases are broader than they appear.
Strong candidates show evidence of both coding skill and trading domain knowledge — one without the other produces fragile algorithms.
Sample interview questions you can use directly:
Freelancer.com gives you access to a global pool of MQL4 programmers, algorithmic trading specialists, and quantitative developers with verifiable track records. You can review profiles, ratings, completed project counts, and code samples before you commit, and you set the budget so competitive bids come back from freelancers on Freelancer.com who match your scope. The platform's Milestone Payments hold funds in escrow until agreed deliverables are met, which is particularly valuable for trading code where staged delivery — specification, prototype, backtest, live test, final EA — is the norm. Whether you need a single indicator built in a weekend or a long-running engagement covering an entire trading system, you can hire on Freelancer.com with confidence.
Hiring an MT4 developer works best when you treat the project brief as a trading specification, not just a coding task. The clearer your entry rules, exit logic, risk parameters, and testing expectations, the better the bids you'll receive. The process below walks you through posting, shortlisting, and awarding the project.
Your project post is the single biggest determinant of bid quality, and a precise brief filters for MQL4 programmers whose strategy and platform experience genuinely match your needs. Head to the
Bids on Freelancer.com are short proposals, not just price quotes — they reveal how each MT4 developer interprets your strategy, what approach they propose, and what timeline they consider realistic. Read carefully and prioritize bidders who ask clarifying questions about edge cases, broker assumptions, or risk parameters, because that's a sign they understand algorithmic trading rather than just MQL4 syntax.
The final decision combines proposal quality with profile evidence — portfolio depth, ratings, written reviews from past clients, and verified credentials. For MT4 work specifically, look for consistency across several completed trading projects rather than a single impressive EA, since reliability under live market conditions is what separates competent developers from one-hit coders.
A standalone indicator or simple script can often be completed within a few days, while a full Expert Advisor with custom risk management, multi-symbol logic, and thorough backtesting typically takes two to six weeks. Complex projects involving DLL integrations, trade copiers, or strategy conversions from other platforms can run longer depending on specification clarity.
MQL4 targets MetaTrader 4, while MQL5 targets MetaTrader 5 and uses an object-oriented syntax with a different order-handling model. Many developers work in both languages, but the platforms are not interchangeable — code written for one must be ported to the other, not simply copied.
Yes. Converting Pine Script, NinjaScript, or written strategy descriptions into MQL4 is one of the most common project types. Provide the original code or a clear written specification along with the rules for entries, exits, and position sizing so the developer can replicate behavior accurately.
No. Development and backtesting can be done on a demo account, and the freelancer can deliver the compiled .ex4 file along with source .mq4 files for you to install yourself. Sharing live account credentials is unnecessary and not recommended.
For most retail and small prop projects — a single EA, an indicator, or a strategy port — an experienced freelancer is faster and more cost-effective. Agencies make sense only when you need a full trading infrastructure spanning multiple platforms, brokers, and ongoing operational support.
