Hi,
Sorry for the newbie question.
I just wonder why there are not input parameters for Strategy Tester, Inputs tab.
Ex:
1) Let say i chose Advisors¥ExpertMovingAverage.ext in Strategy Tester.
2) Then i open Inputs tab and found out that there were only 2 input parameters : Expert:...
I am wondering if there are future development on the detail analysis of the back testing report. It will be extreme useful to have the annual & monthly pips gain representation similar to the chart below.

Hi folks,

Dear.
Is there a "trick" or something like this, to be able to use the Print() function IN the chart (in example creating text objects)
in an expert advisor (not indicator), instead
of regular printing in the expert/journal of toolbox window?
This can be useful for debugging.
Thanks!
Has anyone come across this issue? For some reasons MT5 tester is showing 838 trades (1,676 deals) compared to the real time trading of 437 trades during the same period. This was tested using "Every Tick" setting.
The term in my EA 'if(CopyBuffer(handle,1,0,10,zm)<0)' works as expected and returns valid array variables.
When I attempt to shift the plot in my custom indicator using 'PlotIndexSetInteger(1,PLOT_SHIFT,10)' to show a future prediction, the term in my EA returns unitialised array values.

I have a .dll which worked in MT4 but I get "Cannot import [function]" on Vista 64 bit, and "Cannot load [dll path]" on XP. Are there any special steps that must be taken to make a C++ dll work with a MT5 EA?

From the help:
"In this mode the OHLC prices of 1 minute bars are also generated...",
which makes backtesting extremely slow. Is it possible to somehow disable this?

Hi, Sorry, I've put this suggestion in the general Forum instead of the EA one. It would be nice to have a new backtest mode allowing to use OHLC with the current periodicity instead of 1 min "intra bar " model. So if we select a backtest on 1H data, we only use the 1H bars to perform the...

Hey there,
I don't believe my eyes but I cannot seem to find a visual mode in the mt5 strategy tester? Is my observation correct?
This is a problem for me because now I cannot see what is happening, and I cannot see what is going on, and if the code is doing what it is supposed to do.
Usually I...
Can you tell me were there is a matching advanced list of the events in the MT5 economic calendar? And can the "actual" feeds on the economic calendar be used as inputs to an EA?

I downloaded MT5 and performed the installation. I was able to get the sample EA to work and display arrows. Every subsequent execution locks up and is not running.

Can someone sled some light into the day light saving on the back testing data? With the data on metaquotes, is day light saving being applied? It is hard enough to develop an expert advisor, we all have to deal with all these extra factors like day light saving changes and etc.

Does anyone know how to import or download data for MT5? It seems that I can not backtest beyond May 06, 2010. Under Tools, Options, Charts, I have set the max bars in chart to Unlimited. I still cannot get a Daily or 5 minutes chart to go pass May 06, 2010. I guess if I cannot look at the...
