Copy/paste of ex4/5 files doesn't work for MQL5.com Market purchases.

You need to login into your MQL5 account with your jalakaviani login in MT4/5 >> Tools >> Options >> Community and install your purchases as you did in the first MT4/5 terminal.

Any installation of a MQL5.com Market purchase in a different computer or non MQL5 VPS, requires an extra activation.

hi i have some error, fix please

'iCCI' - wrong parameters count


Hi Maurojose,  The error is because iCCI doesn't have a MODE_MAIN parameter. It only has MODE_SMA , MODE_EMA , and MODE_SMMA for moving average modes. Also, PRICE_TYPICAL is not a valid parameter for applied_price . 

Use this Function instead 

double cci = iCCI(NULL, 0, 14, PRICE_TYPICAL, 0);

Here is the correct way, it should compile

Do you really expect an answer? There are no mind readers here and our crystal balls are cracked, so we can't see your machine.
     How To Ask Questions The Smart Way. (2004)
          Be precise and informative about your problem

We can't see your broken code.

Always post all relevant code (using Code button) or attach the source file.

Firstly, don't hijack other users forum threads for your off-topic question.

Secondly, here is a boiler-plate answer to your query (again, as you did not even read the thread you originally posted on) ...

  • Usually people who can't code don't receive free help on this forum.
  • If you show your attempts and describe your problem clearly, you will most probably receive an answer from the community. Use the CODE button (Alt-S) when inserting code.
  • To learn MQL4 programming, you can research the many available Articles on the subject, or examples in the Codebase, as well as reference the online Documentation.
  • If you do not want to learn to code, that is not a problem. You can either look at the Codebase if something free already exists, or in the Market for paid products (also sometimes free). However, recommendations or suggestions for Market products are not allowed on the forum, so you will have to do your own research.
  • Finally, you also have the option to hire a programmer in the Freelance section.

@William Roeder, what is your problem with EA pending orders?

ok
