Alert if no 'Smiling face"?

New comment
 

Many a times I have accidently switch off EA when interchanging accounts. Is there a way to create an Alert if the EA is accidently turned off (no "Smiling face") ? Any input will be appreciated...

LF

 

why dont uncheck the box in Tool/Option--> "Expert Advisors" tab

--> Disable experts when the account has been changed

--> Disable experts when the profile has been changed

instead

Thanks for the tip phoenix but am still hoping that an audible alert can be programmed into the EA or something. Dont anyone here has this problem?

 

i think it has to be an indicator .. cos if the expert button is off, then the ea can not work but indicator still

and maybe something like this

http://docs.mql4.com/check/IsDllsAllowed

 

here it is

----------do not forget to include this file

#include

if(!IsExpertEnabled())

{

MessageBox("Expert Button Is Off","Message",MB_OK|MB_ICONWARNING);

PlaySound("alert.wav");

}

I am not a programmer and would appreciate if you would show me exactly how and where I am supposed to input the codes if I am using this indicator below..Thanks once again;)

Still works the opposite When I turn-on EA, it Alerts and when I turn off EA, it stops...

Whatever it is, Thanks for being helpful
