ex4 can not be converted but as far as I see it is a simple colored macd (already exists in this thread : https://www.mql5.com/en/forum/181297 )

 

Thanks a lot mladan.

No, I do not use those

Those conversion routines are more or less useless when it cones to metatrader 5 coding. mql4 and mql5 are different coding languages and we should treat them as such : different.

I know that it would be perfect if there was some easy way to convert metatrader 4 code to metatrader 5 code, but there is no such thing (thanks to metaquotes) and if someone wants to write a code using mql 5 in my opinion it is much better to write "pure mql 5" than to try to use some coding ways that are usual in metatrader 4 (it will just additionally slow down mql 5 code that is anything but a speed record holder)

 

ok,thank you for explanation

Frankly, I was one of those that was expecting a lot from metatrader 5

But when I first made a class to retrieve prices and when I compared it to a simple function doing the same thing, it turned out that the speed difference was 10 to 15 times faster in favor of a function. Comparing some more I finaly gave up using classes (trading is a time critical process and it is not the same if we do something in 1 second or in 0.1 second)

But that was not enough either (for example see how when you call different time frame indicators or seek for data from different time frames, sometimes you get an error that the target time frame does not exist and on the very next tick that same time frame reapers like a phoenix) and a lot of similar things that are present in metatrader 5 even after 5 years of development

Maybe we should wait another 5 years and then maybe, just maybe, it will be a reliable trading platform for coders too
