Really good article. All other articles are also good of course, but this is more focused on the purpose of the trading itself: withdrawals.

Thanks for sharing your ideas. 

[Andriy Voitenko]

Thanks for the compliment.

I think we need more articles on testing capabilities, as the tester in Metatrader5 really wonderful.

Yes i agree with you.

Future developers of opensource mt5 EAs, can decide to include testing capabilities in their's EAs thanks also to your article, very instructive.

I hope future open-source EAs will consider the testerwithdrawal() function.

Dear Andrey,

Уважаемый,

Здесь, в Бразилии мы использовали только MT5 вести переговоры.

Мне посоветовали использовать testerwithdrawal функцию, чтобы убить расходы посреднические услуги в переговорах, таким образом, стремятся больше точности в результатах оптимизации.

Проблема состоит в том, чтобы выбрать наилучший результат перед тысячами вариантов, так как эта функция не вмешивается в показателях рентабельности таблицы.

Пример: Есть, кажется, не получить чистый доход уже убиты значения изъ.

Может кто-то мне помочь?

Приношу свои извинения за использование неправильного форум.

Я не могу получить ответы на португальском форуме.

большое спасибо

Yeah the TesterWithdawal() is a strange one in MT4. It comes up OK in autocomplete and it doesn't throw errors if you use it, it just doesn't work. It's also not in the MT4 documentation so I don't believe it ever got implemented. Maybe send it through as a suggestion to Service Desk

Check here http://forum.mql4.com/60725, someone tried to use it in the past and they received errors like "function not yet implemented"...so I guess it should works now! I sent a ticket to the Service Desk as suggested. Let's see...

Ok, they confirmed that is not available for MT4.

Hi Andrey,

Nice article, but I have one question.

The funtion TesterWithdrawal is called inside TimeOfWithDrawal, but where do you use TimeOfWithDrawal? 

Thanks

Andrey Voytenko:

It should be noted that a reverse function of depositing assets to a trade account doesn't exist in MQL5 yet, and unlikely it will be implemented. Who needs systems that require constant increase of deposit?

I do! :)

Also tried to pass a negative value to the function with no success. It's ignored. :/
