About Variontrade
You talk to the developer, not an account manager.
I’m Praveen Divvala, founder of Variontrade and an MQL4/MQL5 algorithmic trading developer with 3+ years of experience building custom Expert Advisors and indicators for traders around the world.
Every project starts with me sitting down with you to understand the strategy, then turning it into a clear technical specification before I write any code. What you receive is tested, documented and easy to adjust.

How I work
- Spec before code. Your idea becomes a written specification you approve first.
- Adjustable by design. Modular code with input parameters, so you fine-tune without editing code.
- Tested before delivery. Strategy Tester runs across pairs and timeframes, plus demo forward-testing where it matters.
- Support afterwards. Bug fixes and refinements from live performance feedback.
Tools and platforms

The process, step by step
- 01
Requirement gathering
We go through your trading idea in detail: entry and exit conditions, indicators, risk tolerance, preferred currency pairs and timeframes, and special conditions such as news avoidance or session restrictions. Your manual strategy becomes a clear technical specification before any code is written.
- 02
Coding & development
The Expert Advisor or indicator is written in MQL4 or MQL5 for your platform. Core trading logic comes first, then risk management: stop-loss, take-profit, trailing stop-loss, breakeven and position sizing. The code stays modular, with adjustable input parameters so you can fine-tune settings without touching code.
- 03
Back-testing
The EA runs through the MT4/MT5 Strategy Tester on historical data across multiple pairs and timeframes. Consistency, drawdown and behaviour in trending versus ranging and high versus low volatility markets are checked, and logic is refined until performance is stable. Where it matters, a forward test on a demo account validates real-time behaviour before going live.
- 04
Delivery
You receive the final compiled .ex4/.ex5 file (or source code, if agreed) with a short setup guide covering installation and key input parameters. Support, bug fixes and refinements based on live performance feedback stay available afterwards.
Experience
Strategy types delivered to clients, and the regions where active work is under way. Client names are kept confidential.
News filter
News Factor EA
Monitors the Forex Factory economic calendar and pauses the EA before high- and medium-impact news events, then resumes safely afterwards to avoid volatility spikes and slippage.
Hedging & recovery
Zone Recovery EA
Hedges and re-enters positions inside a defined price zone to recover losing trades, with drawdown and equity safeguards.
Breakout
High-Low Breakout EA
Enters on confirmed breakouts of session or range highs and lows, with false-breakout filters to reduce whipsaw losses.
Trend + momentum
Custom Indicator-Based EA
A fully automated EA built around bespoke technical indicators that combine trend and momentum conditions.
Price levels
Support & Resistance EA
Trades reactions and breaks of support and resistance levels. Built and delivered to multiple clients.
Grid & averaging

Averaging and martingale-style strategies with adjustable inputs. Built and delivered to multiple clients.

What Variontrade is, and is not
Variontrade is the algorithmic trading consulting and development practice led by Praveen Divvala. It builds software to your rules: Expert Advisors, indicators and scripts for MetaTrader.
It does not give investment advice, manage money, sell signals or promise profits. An Expert Advisor executes a strategy exactly as specified; whether that strategy is profitable depends on the strategy and the market. See the risk disclosure.
