Expert Advisors: MT5 DDE - Server - page 4

New comment

Would it be possible to get the source code for the DLL and EXE? I am writing my first DLLs for MT5 (32bit and 64bit) and this would be a perfect project.

I'm not working I get the error "2019.02.26 11:23:40.882 dde_example (ES,H1) Alert: Cannot find MT4.DDE.2 window!"

Program Running fine.. But i don't understand where i need to create excelsheet.. or its generate auto? if its auto generate so where i can find it?

Please help

Thanks,

This post is quite old, but still relevant.

This tool is amazing, and can be used to integrate data even from multiple instances of MT4 or multiple EAs.

If any of the previous questions is still relevant, please re-post them and I will answer.

The same goes for MQL4 questions, since I can help with MQL4 also.

Hi Tom ,


I would like to export in real time buy and sell tick data to excell, is that possible using this tool?

Thanks

Buenas.


I'm trying to get LAST, but it always comes up blank.


Does anyone have any idea what's wrong?




CopyBuffer(MA_handle,0,0,100,MA);

ArraySetAsSeries(MA,true);

double LAST = SymbolInfoDouble("USDBRL", SYMBOL_LAST);


// Check & Add Item DDE

if(!CheckItem("A","B"))

{

if(!AddItem("A","B")) return;

}


if(!CheckItem("C","D"))

{

if(!AddItem("C","D")) return;

}

if(!CheckItem("COMPANY","Value")) AddItem("COMPANY","Value");

if(!CheckItem("TIME","Value")) AddItem("TIME","Value");

if(!CheckItem("LAST","EURUSD")) AddItem("LAST","USDBRL");

// Set Item Value DDE

SetItem("COMPANY","Value",(string)AccountInfoString(ACCOUNT_COMPANY));

SetItem("TIME","Value",(string)TimeCurrent());


SetItem("A","B","EMA(21):"+DoubleToString(MA[0],6));


SetItem("C","D","LAST:"+DoubleToString(LAST,5));

}

Good evening.


After a lot of fiddling, I managed to solve it. I registered on the site just for this.

Change the entire OnTimer() function:

void OnTimer()

{

//--- filling an array MA[] with current values of iMA

//--- Copying 100 elements

// CopyBuffer(MA_handle,0,0,100,MA);

// ArraySetAsSeries(MA,true);

double EURUSD_ASK = SymbolInfoDouble("EURUSD",SYMBOL_ASK); // for eurusd (example)

double EURUSD_BID = SymbolInfoDouble("EURUSD",SYMBOL_BID);

double USDCHF_ASK = SymbolInfoDouble("USDCHF",SYMBOL_ASK);

double USDCHF_BID = SymbolInfoDouble("USDCHF",SYMBOL_BID);

// Check & Add Item DDE

// if(!CheckItem("EMA","B"))

// {

// if(!AddItem("EMA","B")) return;

// }


if(!CheckItem("COMPANY","Value")) AddItem("COMPANY","Value");

if(!CheckItem("TIME","Value")) AddItem("TIME","Value");

if(!CheckItem("EURUSD","ASK")) AddItem("EURUSD","ASK");

if(!CheckItem("EURUSD","BID")) AddItem("EURUSD","BID");

if(!CheckItem("USDCHF","ASK")) AddItem("USDCHF","ASK");

if(!CheckItem("USDCHF","BID")) AddItem("USDCHF","BID");

// Set Item Value DDE

SetItem("COMPANY","Value",(string)AccountInfoString(ACCOUNT_COMPANY));

SetItem("TIME","Value",(string)TimeCurrent());


// SetItem("EMA","B","EMA(21):"+DoubleToString(MA[0],6));

SetItem("EURUSD","ASK",DoubleToString(EURUSD_ASK,5));

SetItem("EURUSD","BID",DoubleToString(EURUSD_BID,5));

SetItem("USDCHF","ASK",DoubleToString(USDCHF_ASK,5));

SetItem("USDCHF","BID",DoubleToString(USDCHF_BID,5));

}

The rest is the same as described above.


I hope it helps someone.

You forgot to run DDE Server.exe

Sorry for late replying, it was possible of course.

I said "was" because I haven't used this tool for 3 years now, and haven't tried on Windows 10 so you may experiment and report back.

Thanks Maurorechi,


but do you have to do these lines that you did for EURUSD for each asset?

And another question, do you have to have the asset's window open in order to pull information from an asset?

I would like it to be able to generate the bid/ask values automatically for all the symbols in the market watch. Can anyone help?
