int OnInit()
  {
 Comment ("Today is" , DayOfWeek()); Comment ("Balance =" , AccountBalance()); 

   return(INIT_SUCCEEDED);
  }

Do you mean "multiple lines"?

How to write a new line in Comment()

Add "\n" for each new line break that you want to insert

Ie:

Comment("first line\n"+
        "second line\n"+
        "third line\n"+
        "...\n"+
        "nth line");

Probably yes. But my EA doesn't open in MT4 after compilation. No errors, but warnings. Because of it?

Show your new code! We can't read your mind.

Please note, that you can only use one Comment() to display the entire text. If you call it a second time with different text, it will not add to it. It will replace it. Look at the examples above.

Comment(str1,str2);

Multiple rows?

Comment(str1,"\n",str2)

or

msg=StringConcatenate(str1,str2);

Comment(msg);

I use StringConcatenate if I need to build a string from a loop. But probably better ways..

You were close.	Comment ("Today is" , DayOfWeek()); Comment ("Balance =" , AccountBalance());
One comment, not two.	Comment ("Today is" , DayOfWeek() , "Balance =" , AccountBalance());
or this (you want balance to be two digits).	string output=StringFormat("Today is %d Balance =%.2f", DayOfWeek(), AccountBalance() ); Comment(output);
