Hey community!
On Forex, there are tons of EAs that claim to trade off the order book — but honestly, the strategy never really caught on. Why? Because reading the DOM (Depth of Market) for currency pairs is messy; it’s hard to turn those levels into reliable signals.
Crypto exchanges are a whole different story. I’ve been watching the order book on Cryptomus for a few days, and every time a new micro-trend kicks in, the market maker slaps huge limit orders right at the best bid/ask.
At the very least, you could scalp the spread risk-free. At best? Ride the entire micro-move.
But doing this manually is nearly impossible — you need a bot. Cryptomus offers an API, so here’s my question:
How do I adapt an MQL-based robot to work with their API? Where do I even start?"
