I have been testing a new custom EA and have it running on 6 separate computers. Each with a different demo account. About 10 days, the 2 Dell laptops (both I-7 16 G) suddenly stopped entering orders. Journal on both Dell laptops simply says "activated for drlipsitz". Everything is normal on the non

Hi everybody, I'm experiencing a problem with Metatrader 5 optimizer which I've never encountered before. I don't know since when this is happening. When I run a single test from the optimization result list, sometimes the result is different: different number of trades, profit etc. Here is an

Hey guys, My recent optimization results are not what they seem to be. When double-clicking an entry in that table, both backtest and a visualized strategy run yield a totally different result (results of backtest and single visualization test match). Not only the profit is mismatching, but also the

Hi all, When exporting the optimization cache file of an optimization and when importing them again later on in the Optimization tab, it seems the chart of scores becomes incomplete and shows a much lower number of passes (see enclosed pictures original vs saved/exported/reimported).

I'm creating a Rectangle Label using the CHARTEVENT_MOUSE_MOVE event, for every time the event fires I invoke obj_rect_label.Create(foo, bar, lparam, dparam); my question is that, is this method safe in terms of memory management? or do I need to delete/destroy the previous object before recreating
