HIGH CPU USAGE

 
Since the new versiom of MT4 has been installed the Terminal.exe runs almost at 80% and I have removed all indicators, can some body help please
 
In upper terminal window, open Tools\options\ and then click charts tab. If Terminal is not used for Strategy Tester, set both "max bars in history" and "max bars in chart" to 5000. Then check if CPU is lower.

'Max bars in history' will affect disk usage, 'Max bars in chart' will affect memory usage, but I doubt either would have much affect on CPU usage. Certainly not by that much (80% !!!!).

Then I can only suggest you check you code for loops such as while() function. You may be caught in an infinite calculation loop.

As a matter of fact the 80% I have mention in reality the cpu usage variates from 10, 25, 45 80, 85, 90 ) what I have given is an average mostly it stays on the higher 60%
