SHA512 + HMAC - MetaTrader 5 Library | MT5 EA Download - MetaTrader 5 Resources

The SHA512 class is transplanted from http://www.zedwood.com/article/cpp-sha512-function

The HMAC function is transplanted from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash-based_message_authentication_code

Usage example (tested at http://www.freeformatter.com/hmac-generator.html )

 BlankOnStart ()
{
string in = "Thank you for using!" ;
string out =SHA512::sha512( in );
        print( "sha512('" , in , "'):" , out );
 
stringkey = "hashkey" ;
out =SHA512::hmac( in , key);
        print( "hmac-sha512:" , out );
}

Output sha512 ( "Thank you for using!" ): efa2046d83de5504f28fc95e470e726f7f26f4a53475c516759a109a1553850e 0836d1fb7a6ff54d27fa816e4ef8f93b6c63c8a133b3a39a8218313a506b870e

Testing and risk control suggestions

• First verify the default parameters in the strategy tester or demo account, and then adjust the symbol, period, spread and trading period one by one.

Is this resource guaranteed to be profitable?
cannot. EAs, indicators and scripts can only be used as trading tools, and the results depend on parameters, market environment, spreads, slippage and risk control.
