EA Builder Course

A structured, 11-module course

A structured, in-depth course on building strategies in EA Builder -- every indicator and block explained, ending in a knowledge test and a certificate.

Module 1: Canvas Basics

How the EA Builder canvas actually works -- zones, AND/OR logic, operators, and timeframes -- before touching a single indicator.

  • The Four Zones
  • OR Groups and Nesting
  • Operators and Timeframes

Module 2: Trend Indicators

The 5 trend/overlay indicators -- reading direction and "stretch" from price's relationship to a smoothed average.

  • Moving Averages, Bands, and Envelopes
  • Parabolic SAR and Ichimoku

Module 3: Oscillators

The 14 momentum oscillators -- overbought/oversold reads, momentum shifts, and buyer/seller strength.

  • Bounded Oscillators: RSI, Stochastic, Williams %R
  • Unbounded Oscillators and Crossover Pairs
  • Trend Strength and Buyer/Seller Power

Module 4: Volatility Indicators

The 8 volatility indicators -- from the universal ATR yardstick to purpose-built compression, room-to-move, and regime detectors.

  • ATR and Standard Deviation
  • Squeeze, Room to Level, and Regime Filter
  • Liquidity Sweep, Kill Zone Breakout, Intermarket Correlation

Module 5: Volume Indicators

The 6 volume-based indicators -- from simple volume-weighted momentum to full volume-profile and VWAP price benchmarks.

  • MFI, OBV, and Force Index
  • VWAP, Anchored VWAP, and Volume Profile

Module 6: Price Action Patterns

The 11 price-action and market-structure blocks -- discrete, event-style signals rather than continuous indicator lines.

  • Fair Value Gaps, Order Blocks, and Candle Patterns
  • Market Structure, Equal Highs/Lows, and Pivot Points
  • Premium/Discount, Mitigation, Inducement, and AMD

Module 7: Risk & Filters

The Money & Trades and Filters settings tabs -- everything that controls position size, stop/target distance, and when the strategy is allowed to trade at all.

  • Position Sizing, Stops, Targets, and Trailing
  • Trade Limits and Market Condition Filters

Module 8: Building Your First Strategy

A worked example, start to finish: building one real trend-following strategy on the canvas using what Modules 1-7 covered.

  • Worked Example: A Filtered Trend-Pullback Strategy

Module 9: Testing & Validation Tools

Backtest, Monte Carlo, and all 10 Analysis Tools checks -- how to actually validate a strategy before trusting it, not just build one.

  • Backtesting and Monte Carlo
  • The Six Original Analysis Checks
  • Four New Null-Benchmark and Ranking Checks

Module 10: Optimization, Discovery & Portfolio

Optimize's three search modes plus its robustness metrics, the Discover tab's from-scratch strategy search, and Portfolio's closed-form Kelly weight suggestion.

  • Optimize: Three Search Modes
  • Walk-Forward Efficiency, PBO, and the Regime Gate
  • Discover and Portfolio

Module 11: AI Chat, Presets & Generate

Closing the course out: building conversationally instead of by hand, saving and organizing your work, and turning a canvas into a real, downloadable EA.

  • The AI Chat Assistant
  • Presets, Version History & the Curated Gallery
  • Generate & Download
