Hi all,
After constantly staring at multiple charts trying to wait/look for certain candle stick patterns to emerge for awhile, I have realized that manual monitoring is really inefficient and not really productive since most of the time it is just sitting in front of the screen waiting, and the screen can only fits a few fx pairs, so there will be missed opportunities in the pairs that are not opened, worst of all, the longer I stare, the more my brain makes up reasons for a valid trade.
In light of the above, I would like to start a project in building something that can monitor all the major forex pair and sends out an alert when a particular candle stick pattern emerges on a chart (e.g. engulfing pattern) without the chart of the particular pair being opened on the screen.
I have essentially no coding knowledge, so I am thinking of using this project to learn some skills in coding and be productive with my time. And I would like to ask if someone can point me in the direction as to how I can start with such a project (maybe is there something similar that has been already built that I can look at the code for, or is there some good resources available in learning to build this)?
And for something like this, is it better to use MQL4 or other programming language like python to code?
Thanks for any help in advance and looking forward to hearing the replies!
