The problem is unsolvable due to compile-time constraints and runtime limitations.

no way

If you call it programmatically, you can generate a parameter randomly

and you need to run it manually, you will still have to change the input parameter

try to see what is now in the predefined macros, was __COUNT___ and now there is something with random, I have not checked how __COUNT___ works - it turns out static, it has little effect, maybe you can use random for your task

I found __RANDOM__, but I need to compile code to change the value. Or maybe I'm missing something?

#define  MACRO __RANDOM__ 
input ulong MASlow = MACRO; // Период медленной МА

Can it be changed at runtime somehow?

__RANDOM__
 
Компилятор для каждого объявления __RANDOM__ подставляет в код случайное ulong-число.

isn't a new number on every call?

No

Compiler, so at compile time.

Igor Makanu 2021.09.12 19:22 #13435

Vitaly Muzichenko #:

No

Well, then the problem is unsolvable.

What is the problem? - You have to try to formulate it differently.

No

Vitaly, what's all this for? Is it necessary to have > 1 indicator window to get a window number and put something in it?

Yes, that's right.

You need to get the number of the window where the indicator is located. To do this, click the button and get the data

  if(id==CHARTEVENT_OBJECT_CLICK && StringFind(sparam,(string)wndNum+"_butt")!=-1) {
    Alert("Window number:"+(string)wndNum," => Program name:"+prog_name," => Short name:"+short_name);
    ObjectSetInteger(0,sparam,OBJPROP_STATE,false);
  }

mt4 works

mt5 only works in one - the first one installed, copies are ignored

What is the point Cannot install my product Installing the terminal in

It's come to this, there's no way to solve the problem of the week :(

mt4 works

mt5 only works in one - the first one installed, it ignores copies

Well, apparently this is a consequence of increased productivity ... Why recalculate the indicator 100500 times at the whim of not very clever user? But it just so happens that some features suffer from protection.

Probably need to enter an external parameter in the short name of the indicator.

input int MAFast = 8;  // Период быстрой МА
input string shortName = "1";  // Префикс…
string short_name = "";
/********************************************************************\
|           Custom indicator initialization function                 |
\********************************************************************/
int OnInit()
 {
//--- indicator buffers mapping
  short_name = shortName+MQLInfoString(MQL_PROGRAM_NAME) + "=Set (" + (string)MASlow + "/" + (string)MAFast + ")";
  IndicatorSetString(INDICATOR_SHORTNAME, short_name);
  SetIndexBuffer(0, Label1Buffer, INDICATOR_DATA);
  Print("INIT_SUCCEEDED");
  return(INIT_SUCCEEDED);
 }/******************************************************************/

It works this way. Tested.

I am in favour A static variable stores Why is indicator OnCalculate

Again, need to change the prefix when loading the next copy?
