I have been exploring the strategyquant code base and downloaded some interesting indicators but its still a small amount compared to the MQL5 marketplace. Is there a way I can convert mt4,mt5 indicators to a sxp file or in a way that strategyquant can understand it. I just feel that using the indicators from MQL5 will push the limits of strategyquant and trading.
Looking forward for your replies

Unfortunately it is not an easy task to do. MQL indicators can be converted to sqx but it requires Java code. You can request help from us https://strategyquant.com/codebase/request-coding/

It can seem a bit tricky if you’re looking to convert MT4 or MT5 indicators to StrategyQuant, but it’s definitely doable with the right approach. First, you’ll need to understand the basic code behind your indicators. StrategyQuant can’t directly import them, so you must manually recreate the logic in StrategyQuant’s builder. It’s about translating what your indicator does into StrategyQuant’s rules and conditions. Patience is critical here, as it might take a bit of trial and error.
