Orion EA Source Code

This page gives you the Orion EA free source code, the .mq5 file itself and not a compiled robot you have to trust. It puts twelve common intraday scenarios into one file, each one switchable.

• Platform: MetaTrader 5, a single .mq5 file
• Strategy: twelve ICT scenarios, each one switchable
• Price: free, a free account is all you need
• Licence: study it, edit it and, if you want, rebrand it

How the Orion strategy works

Orion follows the family of ideas usually grouped under ICT, order blocks, the imbalances that fast candles leave behind, liquidity sitting above an old high, and the way price often returns to fill those areas before it continues.

Instead of hiding all that behind one signal, the robot implements twelve separate scenarios and lets you turn each one on or off. Therefore you can run it with a single pattern while you learn how that pattern behaves, and add the others once you trust the first.

What is inside the Orion EA free source code file

• The twelve scenarios, each in its own function with its own switch.
• The level detection, where the robot marks blocks, imbalances and liquidity zones.
• The session filter, because these ideas depend heavily on the hour.
• The risk block, with stop, target and sizing.
• Every input with its default value.

How to compile and run it

1. First, download the .mq5 file from the button at the end of this page.
2. Then open MetaEditor from MetaTrader 5, with F4 or the editor button.
3. After that, save the file inside MQL5 and then Experts, and press Compile.
4. Finally, refresh the Navigator and drag Orion onto a chart.
5. Run it on a demo account first, and read every input before you go live.

If the compiler complains, our guide on compiling MQL source covers the usual causes. In most cases it is simply a missing include or the wrong folder.

What you can change

The honest way to use this file is one scenario at a time. First, turn eleven off. Then watch the twelfth on a demo account and read the function behind each entry. The session hours matter as much as the patterns themselves, because these setups revolve around the open of the big sessions.

More robots like this one are in the free EA source code library, and the paid catalogue with documentation and support lives in the MT5 source code section. The idea behind order flow and liquidity is explained well on this reference page.
