How to make money in a new trading tool? - MQL4 and MetaTrader 4

VonDo Mix 2010.08.04 13:57 #51

I was left with an unpleasant impression of the GetLastError diagnostics...

The brokerage house advertised by the developers has changed the rules again. Now you cannot set an espionage time for pending orders.

And MTS which set the pending orders (so as not to "sweat..." (c) Rinat - analyzing the battlefield) with set expiry time, quietly died in a stupor ;)

error 3 (ERR_INVALID_TRADE_PARAMETERS)...

Is it really difficult to specify the parameter number, or rather detail - wrong price level, stoploss, tprofit? :) There is some specificity of errors in trading functions...

And this parameter, which is handicapped, turns out to be aspiration time... But how does the councillor know that?

Crookedness is a condition! ;)

Decided to put a couple of uncomplicated scripts on the hotkeys. And started trading (demo) from the beginning of the month with one click -

What surprised?

Keys don't always respond. i.e. script doesn't always run, key code is kind of swallowed...

Is this the way it's meant to be? Or does it also need to coincide with the coming/not coming of the tick?

And the developers don't see the "Mosek" issues - they just crush/ban the innocent...

If they always react, your graph will go up even more steeply, the world economy will not stand for it.

Generally speaking, you have something eating up resources. Maybe the indicators are heavy or something else. Does F3 and F7 respond normally?

Exactly the same. As a simulation, you could put a failed CD in the drive. :)
The MT4 terminal's bottleneck is that it waits for input/output operations with the disk to complete ( and it doesn't matter who performs those operations). Keyboard, mish, any events become inaccessible to it...

Very strange logic.

My observation is that the developers care about the way the material is presented. That doesn't mean you have to flatter yourself in front of them, but let's just say they don't like to be flamboyant.

I mean, in a subject with excessive ... er... emotional title, they'd hardly have been welcome at the best of times. And now it's hard to expect them to pay much attention to MT4 problems.

My point is that in a thread with excessive ... er ... emotional name, they would hardly have been worth waiting for at the best of times. And right now it's hard to expect special attention to MT4 problems anyway.

I agree - especially if the server initially has a regular function of throwing in "quotes"... ;)

And as for the terminal, it also reliably protects the server logs from writing trade orders.

Wait for it, don't wait.

Even rebooting does nothing.

On CROWFRE, a similar thread has been started again and mocks the "conspiracy theory".

But, what is a trader supposed to check if the trade flow is busy or Common error?

Ran into the following:

Had to convert someone else's bar history files to upload them already in HST MT4 format.

Due to different date format I had to create a format conversion for the standard function.

But the strangest thing is the result of the test.

And some ticks require. One can imagine the confusion there for the poor progger.

Everyone can check - maybe it's the new build 229?

00-00 in MT4 is the end of the old day or the beginning of a new one?

It turns out, it is the beginning of the old day. Or the day is numbered wrong...
