I wish a successful 2018.
Today i found the reason, why my system slowed down since having built a "custom symbol".
I just built one, deriving from only 3 symbols, connected by just add, divide and multiply and activated it in the symbol list.
I checked it in a chart- full function. Wonderful Instrument to build "European Indices" or any combination
of symbols, even such you think run against each other and watch the sum-symbol.
OK so far.
I am a performance-maniac. My 12.000 lines Mt5-Program runs like hell over 40 symbols, searches, displays, is trading and uses around 15-25% CPU total, including the
basic MT5-System, which uses around 5-10% for just operating.
Today i recognized, that with all symbols closed (1.1.2018), the program took around 50% CPU.
OK, my fault, like the past showed too often.
Not today. After 1-2 hours of searching for reasons i deactivated the "custom symbol" (which i didnt use!) and the CPU-usage fell from 50 to 10 %.
No go for custom symbols in this release for me.
