RouletteGame
This is a graphical roulette game implemented as an MQL5 Expert Advisor, using chart objects to simulate a casino roulette experience. It does not perform any actual trading; instead it provides an interactive gambling game overlay on the MT5 chart. Users can place bets on roulette numbers, colors, and amounts through clickable chart objects.

Strategy analysis
This is not a trading strategy EA but rather an entertainment-oriented roulette game utility. The core logic is encapsulated in the CRouletteGame class, which creates all graphical interface elements via CreateGameObjects, including roulette number buttons (0-36), red/black color buttons, bet amount buttons (100 to 1 million plus all-in), and control buttons for new game, exit game, and play. Entry conditions are not applicable since this EA does not open financial positions; instead, user clicks on chart objects trigger game interactions. Exit conditions are similarly inapplicable, as game rounds are controlled by the Play button. Position sizing and money management do not involve financial trading but rather virtual chip management within the game, offering multiple bet options ranging from 100 to 1 million. The OnChartEvent handler listens for click events on all game objects and passes the clicked object name to the ClickGameObjects method for processing. The game supports chart change persistence through the Load flag, preserving game state when the chart symbol or timeframe changes.
Strengths
- Provides a complete roulette game interface with all 37 numbers (0-36) and red/black betting options
- Supports game state persistence during chart changes via the Load flag, preserving objects on REASON_CHARTCHANGE
- Rich bet amount options from 100 to 1 million with 7 tiers plus all-in, offering high flexibility
- Clean event handling architecture with OnChartEvent delegating all game object clicks to a single class method
Weaknesses
- Does not perform any actual trading, serving only entertainment purposes with no practical value for traders
- The object name list in OnChartEvent is lengthy and hardcoded, making maintenance difficult and prone to omissions
- OnTick function is empty, the EA consumes resources without producing any trading output on each tick
- Lacks configurable input parameters, bet options and game settings cannot be customized by users
Possible improvements
- Replace the hardcoded object name list in OnChartEvent with internal event handling in the CRouletteGame class, using object name prefix matching (e.g., rg_) instead of enumerating each name individually
- Add input parameters to allow users to customize initial chips, bet options, and game rules for better configurability
Risk assessment
Overall risk: Safe
- This EA does not perform any financial trading, posing no capital risk
- In-game virtual gambling may encourage over-betting behavior, but limited to simulated chips only
