CodeBase indicator submission stuck at 20% - validation detects Expert Advisor instead of Indicator

[Hirpara Sahil Jivanbhai]

Hello,

I am trying to publish an Indicator to the CodeBase, but the submission is stuck and I cannot complete it.

The problem:

- Step 4 (Code): the progress bar stays at 20% and never advances, so I cannot reach the final submit.

- Step 5 (Test): "Validation state: Not started", and the Type is shown as "Expert Advisor".

However, my code is an Indicator, not an Expert Advisor:

- It uses OnCalculate() and #property indicator_chart_window.

- It has 2 indicator buffers/plots (DRAW_ARROW) and no trade functions (no OnTick, no order sending).

I cannot change the Type from "Expert Advisor" to "Indicator", there is no Start button for validation, and the bar stays at 20% even on a brand-new submission.

The .mq5 compiles with 0 errors and 0 warnings in MetaEditor (latest build).

Could you please check why it is detected as an Expert Advisor, or escalate this to a moderator? Screenshots of Step 4 and Step 5 are attached.

Thank you.

I just tested the first page of a new code submission and I'm unable to reproduce your issue. I was able to select any program type from the list of options.

Make sure that you select your desired program type on page #1 of your code submission. It can't be changed later.

If that still doesn't work, try a completely new submission.
