breakpoint in built in indicator

 

Hi

In the Navigator window, under Indicators > Trend. I see few indicators, I like to place a breakpoint and step over the steps to learn how few of them work. But do not know how to open them in the MetaEditor since I can not find them in the Navigator window there.


thx

This possibility is  available to debug just custom indicators.

I will not list all of the new possibilities and features of the new terminal and language. They are numerous, and some novelties are worth the discussion in a separate article. Also there is no code here, written with object-oriented programming, it is a too serous topic to be simply mentioned in a context as additional advantages for developers. In this article we will consider the indicators, their structure, drawing, types and their programming details, as compared to MQL4. I hope that this article will be useful both for beginners and experienced developers, maybe some of them will find something new.
 
Can I make a copy of a built-in indicator and make it a  custom indicator to play around with?

You don't need that. Each built-in indicator has his custom one in standard installation. Just open MetaEditor and look for custom indicators in Navigator.
