Read-only MT5 EA and content pipelines
Read-only MT5 EA and content pipelines
TL;DR — the 30-second summarytldr
The final two channels: (1) the read-only MT5 analysis panel — a helper that looks at your chart and lets you ask AI right on the terminal, and (2) the bom-writer automatic article pipeline — a Thai article drafting factory where a human always reviews before publishing
When to usewhen to use
For traders: use it when you want AI to help read the chart/indicator conditions you are looking at — it is an "analysis assistant", not a substitute trader
- This toy is a pure-indicator EA/MT5 program — the entire source tree contains not a single order-sending call (OrderSend) (verified by grepping the whole tree)
- For content creators: bom-writer drafts Thai articles from scheduled topics — measured on the real system it writes ~68 posts/hour (during parallel runs), but every piece must pass a human before publishing
How-tohow to
The MT5 panel (read-only): the EA works like this
1. The EA reads the chart/indicator values currently on display (data the user is already seeing)
2. Sends that data over HTTPS to the dedicated BOM_KEY_MT5 key
- Allowed models: one only (the analysis model)
- $1/day hard cap
3. Receives the analysis back and draws it on the panel in the chart
4. Never sends orders — because the code has had no order-sending function since it was writtenData leaving the machine = only the chart numbers the user asked for; no account data, no passwords
The article pipeline (bom-writer): an n8n schedule → LiteLLM (bom-writer route, 8192 answer cap) → drafts land in a staging folder → a human reviews → a human presses publish. Nothing publishes itself automatically; everything passes human review before release (periodic re-checks are still required)
If you get stuck anywhere → Chapter 9

A summary of the scope of these two channels:
| Channel | Key | Model | Cap | Automatic? |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| MT5 panel (read-only) | BOM_KEY_MT5 | Analysis only (one model) | $1/day | Analyzes only when the user asks |
| Article pipeline | BOM_KEY_WRITER | bom-writer | $5/day | Drafts on its own; publishing always goes through a human |

FAQfaq
Q: Can I use it on a live trading account right away? — Yes, because it never touches the account at all. It only "reads" the open chart; terminal settings remain entirely under your own security rules
Q: If the AI recommends something wrong, who is responsible? — The answer: every AI reply is educational material only, not investment advice (as footnoted on every page of this site)

Space was reserved for a real screenshot of the MT5 panel, but in this automated capture round the live terminal was minimized to the system tray (no window to capture passively) — following the "capture without disturbing the real thing" policy, we use sample panel data instead:
