Trying to test MT5.
In MT4 I use IchimokuAlert_v3 indicator
I took it from herehttps://www.forex-tsd.com/forum/debates-discussions/1175-ichimoku-alert/page2#comment_418797
May someone with good knowledge convert it for MT5.
I tried to convert it with methodology from here http://metatrader5.blogspot.com/2009/10/rewrite-mql-4-to-mql-5-script.html
Compile with 55 errors

There are 55 errors when compiling.
It will be easier to open Ishimoku from MT5 delivery.
And copy a block of code from your alert into it.
string Msg,Subj;
if (AlertType == 1 || AlertType == 3)
{
if (Tenkan_Buffer[1]>Kijun_Buffer[1] && Tenkan_Buffer[2]<Kijun_Buffer[2] && !UptrendAlert1)
...

Thank you! Good man.
Can you tell me between which lines this block of code should be inserted?
I put the block at the end. I got 6 compiler errors.
It's blaming on.
136 line if (AlertType == 1 || AlertType == 3)
156 line if (AlertType == 2 || AlertType == 3)
175 line return(rates_total);
176 line swear on the bracket }
180 line if (MsgAlerts) Alert(msgText);
181 line if (eMailAlerts) SendMail(eMailSub, msgText);

Thank you! Good man.
Can you tell me between which lines this block of code should be inserted?
Go to a freelancer, they will put pieces of code in the right places.
I don't even know what "freelancing" is.

Now do you know?
Yeah, I get the impression that on Russian-language threads the population stops understanding the russian language.

The terms of "freelance":
Yes, imagine, what you are suggesting is worth some effort and therefore money.
Everyone understands the Russian language, but fiddling "for a fee" is not very interesting.
But if you had a successful trading experience, in which you would need an indicator, maybe someone would agree to do something without money in exchange for a profitable trading idea. But in the meantime - purely for the sake of "good name" - I'm afraid there won't be many people willing to do it...
