The AlgoTree workflow

Connect → Research → Build → Validate → Deploy

Two modes on one desk: Chart Research for live structure, Algo Trading for systematic proof. AI Advisor on every step.

Pick your path

Same platform. Two professional workflows.

◈

Chart Research path

For discretionary & structure traders

1
Connect MT5

Save credentials in Connect. Test terminal. Symbol auto-match (e.g. EURUSD → broker suffix).

2
Start Research Scan

Pick symbol & timeframe. Live loop every 3s — or historical when market closed.

3
Read the board

Bias pill, trade grade, method chips. Toggle Fib · SMC · Wyckoff · Trend overlays.

4
Ask AI

"Why WAIT?" — advisor uses your grade, bias, and MTF context. Fix errors with one click.

⚡

Algo Trading path

For systematic & no-code builders

1
Choose algo or build

Algo Studio presets or Custom Creator — indicators, rules, lot method, execution mode.

2
Backtest Lab

Vectorized run with spread & slippage. Equity, drawdown, DNA Score in seconds.

3
Param Lab

2D sweep → robust zones on heatmap. Click cell → apply → re-backtest. Avoid overfit spikes.

4
Validate & export

Walk-forward + Monte Carlo. Export MQL5 (MT5) or Python (Binance). Paper before live.

"Structure on the chart. Proof in the lab. Discipline in deploy."
Research informs ideas — backtests prove them.
Chart Research

Eight overlays. One honest grade.

Each method produces bias and levels — not buy/sell spam. Confluence scoring rolls them into a trade grade: A when structure aligns, B when mixed, WAIT when you should sit on your hands.

Methods run together: Fibonacci retracements, Gann angles, SMC liquidity, ICT sessions, Wyckoff phase (spring/upthrust), trend (EMA + RSI + ADX), daily pivots & swing levels, and risk sizing from your capital.

Live MT5 OHLCV 21 timeframes MTF board 3s scan loop

What you see on chart

  • Bias pill — bullish · bearish · neutral from method stack
  • Trade idea panel — grade, entry zone, stop, target when confluence exists
  • Method tabs — Summary, SMC, ICT, Wyckoff, Trend, Levels, Risk
  • Overlay toggles — one active layer on chart at a time
  • Live status — data source, session (open/closed), scan count
  • Ask AI — appears on errors; opens advisor with context
Connect module

Real broker data — not demo CSV guesswork.

AlgoTree talks to your MetaTrader 5 terminal. When the market is open, you get live bars. When it's closed, you still get historical OHLCV from the broker — so weekend research uses real tick history.

One API call can load all 21 MT5 timeframes (M1 through MN1) in a single session for multi-timeframe confluence without reconnecting.

MT5 setup checklist

  • Open MT5 and log in to your broker (e.g. Zed Capital)
  • Market Watch → Symbols → show your pair
  • Platform → Connect → Test MT5 → save credentials
  • Chart Research → Start Research Scan
  • If symbol fails → Ask AI: "MT5 symbol not found"
Validation science

Proof before you risk capital

📊

Backtest Lab

Vectorized engine with realistic costs. Equity curve, max drawdown, trade log, and bars-per-second metrics — iterate ideas in minutes, not weeks.

🎯

Param Lab

Heatmap sweeps two parameters at once. Robust zones (stable Sharpe bands) beat single peak cells that overfit one lucky window.

↻

Walk-forward

Rolling in-sample optimize / out-of-sample test. If params only work in-sample, you'll see it before live.

🎲

Monte Carlo + DNA

Shuffle trade order to stress sequence risk. DNA Score rolls metrics into one deployability grade (0–100).

AI Advisor

Your desk coach — everywhere.

Floating on every page. Sends live context with each question: platform mode, symbol, timeframe, research bias, trade grade, last error. Rules engine works offline; add OpenAI key for richer dialogue.

  • "Why is my trade grade WAIT?"
  • "Explain Wyckoff spring vs upthrust"
  • "Avoid overfitting in Param Lab"
  • "MT5 not showing live data — fix steps"
Context-aware · not signal service

"Help fix Chart Research error: Symbol not found"

Step 1: Open MT5 Market Watch → show EURUSD variant.
Step 2: Connect module → Test MT5.
Step 3: Rescan — closed market still loads history.
