{ "item_title" : "Engineering Edge", "item_author" : [" Bhargav Reddy Teegala "], "item_description" : "Stop hoping your trading bot survives. Engineer one that does.Most Expert Advisors fail. Not because their creators can't code, and not because the markets are unbeatable - but because the EA was built as a single clever idea instead of an engineered system. It has an entry signal and little else: no disciplined risk layer, no defense against its own worst day, no awareness of the prop-firm rules it has to survive under. It dazzles in a backtest, looks good for a week on demo, then quietly destroys a funded account the first time conditions turn.Engineering Edge is the antidote.This is a complete, ground-up engineering guide to building an Expert Advisor robust enough to earn - and keep - a prop-firm funded account. Across 26 chapters and 3 appendices, you'll construct a professional-grade trading machine piece by piece, with full, explained, reusable MQL5 code at every step.Inside, you will build: A modular, production-ready EA architecture that scales from one symbol to a dozenA confluence filter stack - trend, momentum, session, and news - combined into a single, auditable entry decisionA volatility-relative risk engine with dynamic position sizing and structure-aware stopsProp-firm survival systems: daily drawdown halts, a maximum-drawdown kill switch, drop tiers, correlation caps, and payout-aware equity watermarkingA scalable multi-symbol core with a clean per-symbol state modelAn on-chart dashboard, multi-account portfolio design, and a disciplined backtest → forward-test → go-live processWhat makes this book different: It isn't about a magic indicator - because there isn't one. The trading signal is deliberately left as a pluggable module so you can drop in your own. What surrounds that signal - the architecture, the risk engineering, the guardrails, the testing - is the real edge, and it's exactly what separates the rare funded, profitable trader from the 95% who don't make it.Every chapter ends with two features you'll come to rely on: What Breaks Without This, showing the concrete failure each system prevents, and Build It, a hands-on exercise - so that by the final page you haven't just read about Expert Advisors, you've engineered one.Three appendices give you references you'll return to for years: a catalog of common MQL5 mistakes and their fixes, ready-made prop-firm configuration templates, and an instrument reference sheet covering spreads, volatility, sessions, and stop multipliers across forex, metals, and indices.This book is for you if you: Write (or want to write) Expert Advisors in MQL5Are chasing - or protecting - a prop-firm funded accountAre tired of strategies that work in backtests and fail with real moneyWant the engineering discipline that turns a trading idea into a durable systemStop hoping. Start engineering.Trading leveraged instruments carries a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors. This book is educational and does not constitute financial advice. Always test thoroughly before trading real capital.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers3.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/9/79/819/037/9798190377590_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "50.00", "online_price" : "50.00", "our_price" : "50.00", "club_price" : "50.00", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
