Discussing the article: "From Basic to Intermediate: Objects (I)"

[MetaQuotes]

Check out the new article: From Basic to Intermediate: Objects (I).

In this article, we will begin looking at how to work with objects directly on the chart. This is done using code specially developed for demonstration purposes. Working with objects is very interesting and can be a lot of fun. Since this will be our first contact with the topic, we will start with something very simple.

In the previous article, “From Beginner to Intermediate: Indicator (V)” we explained how we can, in a simple way, adapt an indicator, even if only partially, to the chart display mode used in MetaTrader 5. However, we did not show how to use the three chart modes, because doing so requires knowledge that we have not yet properly explained here.

Within certain limits, we can use candlestick mode or bar mode in the same indicator, and this can be done without any major problems. If we want to use line mode, we will have to create a separate indicator and place it on the chart manually. Despite this minor drawback, we will show how to avoid it in the future.

I believe you were able to understand how we can temporarily deal with the existing limitations until we reach the necessary level in these articles, so that you understand how to work without having to explain every implementation detail.

Even so, there are things we can already start discussing, although they may be more interesting to some readers and less interesting to others. I say this because many of you may not see the deeper meaning of the topic we will begin discussing in today’s article. For others, however, what will be shown and explained in this and the following articles is genuinely very interesting and may even serve a very noble purpose.

So, let us begin by looking at something that will not be examined in detail in this article, but will serve as the starting point for discussing this topic.
