As there are many talented programmers on FF creating complex indicators and EA's. I find myself wanting to learn how to program these as well. So for those who understand MQL4 well, please suggest the quickest most surest way to get started learning how to program in MQL4. Please include references, links and other resources that can help us newbies out. Thanks!
best way:
- learn the basics
- then look for simple programs and go through the code and try do unterstand what is any line.... doing this with many different code (more difficult code from time to time) and you will learn fastest possible way

Do the Jim Dandy course on YouTube. I completed it, and I feel good enough to code whatever I want.

MQL5 in my opinion is more difficult, but has more features.
You will be overwhelmed no matter what you do, but it is well worth the journey.

You can check out this link for how to use AI for programming. I would use AI as a coach.

After teaching myself some mql4 I was still amazed at how few video tutorials there are on places like youtube about it.. so I started making some. Just do a search either on google or on youtube for mql4 lessons. Start with the intro video and work your way thru. The audio was horrible when I first started recording but I eventually get it figure out. I can't believe no one is helping the dummies like I was. This is all free for the taking. I guess the people that learn it want to make a living coding and so don't share their knowledge or are unable...
Yeah Jim you are the GOAT!
