No coding experience? No problem. Bring your trading idea and learn how AI can help turn it into an automated trading strategy on Phillip MetaTrader 5.
In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn how to use a large language model (LLM) to develop your own MT5 Expert Advisor (EA)—from defining your trading rules and generating the code to troubleshooting and backtesting your strategy.
Follow the entire process step by step as you transform a trading idea into clearly defined entry, trade-management and exit rules, use AI to generate your EA code, compile and troubleshoot it on MT5, and test how the strategy would have performed against historical market data.
By completing the workshop activities, you’ll work towards leaving the session with a testable EA and a practical understanding of the process behind developing your own algorithmic trading strategies.

1. DEFINE — Turn Your Trading Idea into Rules
Transform your trading idea into clear entry, trade-management and exit conditions that an algorithm can understand.
2. BUILD — Use AI to Create Your MT5 Expert Advisor
Learn how to prompt an AI tool to turn your trading rules into code for an MT5 Expert Advisor.
3. COMPILE — Bring Your Trading Bot to Life
Install and compile your EA on Phillip MetaTrader 5, identify common errors and troubleshoot issues.
4. TEST — Put Your Strategy to the Test
Backtest your EA using historical data and evaluate whether it behaves according to your intended trading rules.
