Metatrader is using exp (MT3) and ex4 (MT4) files. That is why we are compiling the indicators and EAs in MetaEditor (to get ex4 files for MetaTrader).

 

Yes I know this, but I only have .ex4 file without .mq4. So is there a possibility to use it??

Yes if they were created not old build of MetaTrader4 for example.

 

I have MT4 4.oo build 191. And I don't know how they were created.

If you can see these ex4 files as indicators or EAs in navigation panel and can use it - so it is no problem.

 

Ok I know now. EA was in gray color and I think it isn't work. But they work!!

Look at this page https://www.mql5.com/en/forum (there are small video files there). And read post #7.

If you did everything in right way but your EA is in gray so look at here to see: may be you need some indicators to run this EA:
