It's working.

For example - this one https://www.mql5.com/en/code/199 

 

Just place everything in right place, compile indicator in MetaEditor, in Metatrader - go to Navigator, right mouse click on Custom indicators and Refresh.

Obviously, you download this directly from mql5.com and not from MT5 - that's OK though :)

Your question has been asked before, please read this Where are my EA and Files stored? and/or Installed EA doesn't show up in MT5 navigator?

If indicator is not showing in Metatrader so it means thew following:

• you did not add this indicator to Metatrader, or
• this indicator is from the other platform (you added for MT5 but indicator is for MT4), or
• indicator is having the bug and can not be added to Metatrader. or
• you did not compile this indicator in MetaEditor.

Where Do I start from?

Indicator can not be added in MT5 for the following reasons:

• you did not compile this indicator in MetaEditor;
• you downloaded ex5 file which is not source code and can not be compiled; this file can not be added to MT5 if this ex5 file compiled with old version of MetaEditor;
• you placed indicator in wrong folder;
• your indicator is not for MT5 (there are many indicators which are for MT4, and those indicators can not be added to MT5);
• other reason - post #8
