Hi,
because of the reason, that metatrader interneal is no possibility to read the ALERT Messages from an Indicator, i wrote a parser script to read a File located in ..\MQL5\Logs.
A VBScript, that opens the latest logfile and read out the latest line.
My *.vbs Script is working if I open it with a doubleclick on Windows file systrm level.
Thearticle https://www.mql5.com/de/articles/1416 shows how to start a script when an alert occur.
My Script i located in
but it does not run when an alert occur.
I also tried to locate the script file in the folders located inI also tried a simplified skript with only one line:
Wscript.Echo "Script was called"But it does not work.
Does anyone have an Idea why I can not call the script with an alert sound?
I have Matatrader 5 Build 1816
Thanks in advance
