The CButton class is derived from CWndObj, and CWndObj is derived from CWnd. All the classes don't have an interface to set BASE CORNER.

We (The end users of Terminal.exe or terminal64.exe ) drive the demand for brokers to buy MT5 Server from Metaquotes. These licenses are expensive to buy and monthly fees are easily $10,000 USD. The "EA" Market is what took Metatrader into the #1 Spot of Forex. Now MT5 allows Hedging so more of us...

The problem is that when i take the bullish and bearish tick data(both much above 0) and divide them and after that *100 , i get 0. I printed out everything and i find no logical reason for that.

Hello Everyone, Been testing many EA's and some give same results as live accounts and some are totally different. Here are the questions for those long time traders and coders. Could EA here in MQL5 be trusted?If not, how do we avoid this? And why do MQL5 allow this? Do MQL5 screen sellers and...

Hello, I was wondering whether anybody could help with something that's really beginning to wind me up... Whenever I backtest an EA the system runs it, however no results pull through.

I've always supposed that MT5 is about a joke, and I would like to know if this behaviour is normal in...

Hello I recently subscribed to a signal provider and have it all set up in MT4. I've checked the journal and noticed signals are being "skipped" because "no symbol found".
