Then if you don't have the money for it, then it is not ASAP. For the simple fact, that having an EA does not mean it is going to be profitable in a very short term, and even if it was guaranteed to be profitable, you don't have the capital to invest. And even if you used a Prop-firm, their requirements are tough, and you would not meet those requirements with something you don't yet master.
Becoming consistently profitable at trading, even with EAs, requires many years. It's like any other profession—it takes time—a lot of time. Time is required to gain experience and with it the skill and the knowledge that it requires.
So, if you need money for life's requirements, focus on what you can already do well and from which you can directly benefit with little risk, even if it is not a lot.

There are in fact many South African's trading with MetaTrader and programming with MQL, I've seen and interacted with several here on the site, and I have just recently completed a job for one such person. I am myself, a former resident of RSA (1975-1993) and got my engineering degree from RAU.
If you went for a Computer Science degree with the intent of using it in trading, then why did you not work on such projects while you were studying?
Anyway, those are all moot points. The fact is that if you can't hire someone and you want to do it yourself, then you will just have to give yourself the necessary time to learn.
PS! Traders and coders in general, tend to be loners by nature. We tend to work best alone.
