Automatic removal of EA

[kenned45900]

Hello,

Is there a code that automaticly remove only the EA on current chart? I havde tried :

PostMessageA( WindowHandle( Symbol(), Period()), WM_COMMAND, 33050, 0);

but it removed the EA on all charts?

untested but try this for a start:

#import "user32.dll"
   int GetAncestor(int hWnd, int gaFlags);
   int GetDlgItem(int hDlg, int nIDDlgItem);
   int PostMessageA(int hWnd, int Msg, int wParam, int lParam);
#import

#define WM_COMMAND   0x0111
#define WM_KEYDOWN   0x0100
#define VK_HOME      0x0024
#define VK_DOWN      0x0028

void start() {
   string symb = Symbol();
   int hFile, SymbolsTotal, hTerminal, hWnd;

   hFile = FileOpenHistory("symbols.sel", FILE_BIN|FILE_READ);
   if(hFile < 0) return(-1);
   SymbolsTotal = (FileSize(hFile) - 4) / 128;
   FileSeek(hFile, 4, SEEK_SET);

   hTerminal = GetAncestor(WindowHandle(Symbol(), Period()), 2);

   hWnd = GetDlgItem(hTerminal, 0xE81C);
   hWnd = GetDlgItem(hWnd, 0x50);
   hWnd = GetDlgItem(hWnd, 0x8A71);

   PostMessageA(hWnd, WM_KEYDOWN, VK_HOME, 0);

   for(int i = 0; i < SymbolsTotal; i++)
   {
      if(FileReadString(hFile, 12) == symb) {
         PostMessageA(hTerminal, WM_COMMAND, 33050, 0); break;
      }
      PostMessageA(hWnd, WM_KEYDOWN, VK_DOWN, 0);
      FileSeek(hFile, 116, SEEK_CUR);
   }

   FileClose(hFile);

   return;
}

I'm not sure if you have to right click "Show All" in the market watch first.. might give strange results if you don't. check it.
