You are right to argue. What kind of trader is he if he doesn't trade because of the price :)
 
I quite understand your position. Of course, you are entitled to discuss any issues, it's just that the form of discussion didn't seem quite tactful to me. Only here the desire to get money for your work can be called greed. <br / translate="no"> When you go to the shop you would not think to retell the store clerk the Code of the Builder of Communism, would you? For some reason the word "greed" comes to my mind in discussions like this.
I am of course prepared to discuss the price and promise you the next version free of charge.
Good luck with that.

Ok Yuri. Indeed, pricing issues are governed by supply and demand :)
I'll wait for the next version of your product.
Please send it to fx-system[sabacca]mail.ru ([sabacca] = @, mail.ru = mail.ru).
You promised (see "I specifically promise you the next version for free") !
After that we can talk about everything else :)
Thanks.

Thank you for your interest. I hope for a long-term mutually beneficial cooperation.
I'm looking forward to emailing you at min[sabbakka]sama.ru ([sabbakka] = @, sama.ru = sama.ru)
Good luck!
 
Hehe. You are impeccably assertive :)

Thank you, I take that as a compliment. It's nice to meet an enlightened man.
Good luck to you.

I have not found in your description one important point, namely, that this is not a "full" API, but an approximate surrogate, and commands to execute orders will be executed by it only when the quote arrives for the pair for which the EA is installed. This is not good :(

That is not a good thing :(

You are right that the developed library is not pure API, but dll + EA working with it.
Of course, pure API would be better if it was ... But this is a MetaQuotes copyright issue.
At this forum MT4 developers clearly stated - there will be no API for the user terminal!
This library was born first of all "for myself", and it allowed me to switch to MT4 platform painlessly, without losing all my programming developments. I also felt the lack of such a product in traders forums.
Regarding execution of orders: The volatility of quotes is precisely defined by ticks with new prices. During active trading it comes to 200 ticks per minute. Therefore, there cannot be any lag in this case. If you open a position in the period of sluggish trades, the price changes are almost absent, so the expectations should not influence much on the quote's level.
Thanks for your questions. Good luck!

It's very good that you confirm it. Even better, IMHO, if you explain this obvious thing for programmers to your potential customers in the first lines of your description, instead of making loud statements :) Everyone has different TCs and for many such an approach may still be unacceptable. It should also be noted that the labor cost of writing such a library, which implements the exchange of commands through the files for a professional programmer takes a maximum of 3-4 hours, which makes the cost of your product clearly overestimated.

I didn't hide this information. All data about the library and its algorithm of operation are given in detail on my site http://www.min2006.ru and in documentation http://www.min2006.ru/userfiles/doc.zip.
You wrote correctly that it is "an obvious thing" for programmers. They are potential customers for me, because you can hardly imagine an ordinary user writing programs with function calls from external DLL!
About 3-4 hours, I think you greatly exaggerate. Just the testing process took me about a month. The library worked with my program, opening orders, getting quotes etc. I wrote it, first of all, for myself, and I consider reliability and protection against possible failures the main issue in independent development for traders. Good luck!

It's strange, but I have not found there information that order placing in terminal can delay its generation in program by 1-2 minutes, depending on frequency of coming quotes. In general, please, point out the place where it is mentioned in your documentation that the order placing depends on the quotes frequency.
The programmer can write such a library by himself, and my IMHO, it is not correct to take money from novice traders-programmers for the TOOL, the money should be taken for the PRODUCT. About 3-4 hours - I'm probably understating, and in any case, I know what I'm talking about. Such a library was made by me exactly in that time, on the same day, as soon as I dissipated hopes on API service from developers.
PS. I can provide the library for free to anyone who wants it.
