Discussion of article "Creating an Indicator with Graphical Control Options"
I will be glad to listen to wishes and criticism in my address, but do not judge strictly my first article.
is written quite simply and I think will be understandable to beginners in mastering µl5 and will serve as a base from which you can copy some functions for those who are just getting acquainted with µl5.
I think this article could be used to write a cool article on the subject of
Optimisation of custom indicators and Principles of economical recalculation of indicators.
Hello, I really like MACD_By_CoreWinTT.mq5 indicator. It is a pity that it is not in the standard set of MT5 indicators, but I would like to have it very much. If it is possible, please tell me how to install it on the MetaTrader5 being tested.

copy to this folder! The best way to find this folder is to press Win+R on your keyboard.
Win is the key that opens the start menu.
and there type in the line
look up the user name under which the terminal is located and press Win+R again.
and then type the line
C:\Users\Dmitry\AppData\Roaming\MetaQuotes\Terminal\.
this indicator has steadily earned its place =)
I plan to optimise this indicator and add the possibility of sound signals to it
and also that it recalculates when the buttons are pressed.
and not have to wait for a new tick or switch time frames
The indicator is just wonderful, the article is 5+, the author is smart!
But it is for MT5, I really want to use it in mt4, as I am not strong in programming can not port it for mt4, friends, how do I do it? Maybe there is already ready, throw a link please...

It is not possible to port it as it is, MQL4 does not have the same capabilities as MQL5.
Specifically, this indicator lacks objects...
OBJ_BUTTONBut if you do it for yourself, I can give advice, you can replace the objects "buttons" with scripts that will change global variables, and the scripts should be hung on hotkeys. Accordingly, the control should be tied not to buttons, but to the state of global variables.

Those who are familiar with market sentiments, know the MACD indicator (its full name is Moving Average Convergence/Divergence) - the powerful tool for analyzing the price movement, used by traders from the very first moments of appearance of the computer analysis methods. In this article we'll consider possible modifications of MACD and implement them in one indicator with the possibility to graphically switch between the modifications.
