Right... ERR_MARKET_NOT_SELECTED 4302 Symbol not selected in MarketWatch

Not selected how? Not selected what? What is MarketWatch? What symbol? Currency pair? Well, no, I have a currency pair on the function's input very well! The function here

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// 
  double iATRf (string symbol, int timeframe, int period, int shift  ){
    ATR_handle=iATR(symbol,periodd(timeframe),period);
    CopyBuffer(ATR_handle,0,0,100,ATR);
    ArraySetAsSeries(ATR,true); 
    return( ATR[shift]); }

Good day! I am trying to learn how to test Expert Advisors in the tester. When I start testing, computer gets glitchy, IN ORDERLY all screen goes blank for 5-15 seconds, then every 6-8 minutes the tester seems to stop working, no results are seen in it, process manager shows zero or so, how to recalculate?

Also, the platform seems to be glitching a bit - see, a bunch of numbers - memory what's there, I know that the memory is memory...

And how much physical memory is installed on the computer?

If even 3 MB of memory is not available, then you need to upgrade to at least 4 Gb.

Thank you!!! But it's weird, it's 54% of the drive is occupied by Caes...

Meaning RAM.

[Dimka-novitsek]

Nah, my bad, it's 84% of the drive taken up by Tse and 98% by De... It must be the brothers' toys!!! The eldest downloaded some game yesterday that looks like a corncob aeroplane. Everyone played it. Forgot how to look where in the computer it's crammed like that? If there are 30 folders in the discs, it's a bummer to look where the volumes are!

[Dimka-novitsek]

Thank you! Googling for RAM, although I intuitively understood...

First you have to reboot the computer. Then insert a printout of these parameters into the EA code and see the result:

TERMINAL_DISK_SPACE	Volume of free disk space for the MQL5\Files folder of the terminal (agent), in Mb	int
TERMINAL_MEMORY_PHYSICAL	Physical memory size in the system, in Mb	int
TERMINAL_MEMORY_TOTAL	Memory size, available to terminal (agent) process, in Mb	int
TERMINAL_MEMORY_AVAILABLE	Free memory size of terminal (agent) process in Mb	int
TERMINAL_MEMORY_USED	Memory size, used by terminal (agent), in Mb	int

Thank you! Googling for RAM, although I intuitively figured it out...

Press Ctrl+Alt+Del. Windows Task Manager will open. The top part shows the CPU indicator and the bottom part the RAM indicator.
