Overview
Telegram Trader Bot runs a local server within the terminal to receive trading instructions and optionally publish market data. The Python-based backend handles the logic for interacting with Telegram, while the MQL component manages order placement. Risk controls include configurable maximum lot sizes, order limits, and slippage buffers. Note that the README describes the repository as a partial code release, requiring external dependencies and additional setup to become fully functional.
- ZeroMQ socket-based communication
- Remote order execution via Python
- Market data publishing capabilities
- Adjustable lot size and slippage limits
- Cross-platform support for MT4 and MT5
