I would like to know how to go about learning mql4 programming. All suggestions from senior coders welcome. Currently I know only very basic of matlab and python (lists, arrays , loops, plots etc.). So from here how can I go on learning mql.

Thanks in advance.

I always used one mode (two components) for learning, regardless of what coding language it was :
- first component is the help (documentation). Luckily mt is not bad regarding this
- second is the most important : taking someone else code and check what is done (and how) comparing that to documentation. Here you can find a lot of code that is not too bad and which can be used for learning (at least I hope so)

There is a third part (component) but that comes later :
- forget about others code - write all on your own - simply for being able to "read" the code on a glance

hi mladen,

for mql4 is there any document of help files in pdf which explains some commands and basic codes and other basics like how to write conditionals and loops etc and other basic stuff?

That is obsolete in many way
Here is one pdf that has upgraded information (functions in new builds)

Then you have to have the most important component any coder must have : to be thickheaded :)
Without it no coder can work :)
