Make sure you apply the AP Indicator to the chart first.

 
I've downloaded the MQL5 file but I can't change the names of titles, subtitles and button names. How do I change them?
 
Only the Market and Pending buttons work, the rest of them do not. Do you know why the rest of the buttons are not loading? The buttons are clickable, but nothing is showing underneath them.
