Hi I am a newbie trader who needs a good EA. I am not a programmer so please keep it simple.

I have no interest in working with EAs that work on less than daily charts. However, when I run them through the tester (in visual mode) I get multiple trades in one day (tester seems to go tick-by-tick). All of my EAs and their indicators are set to evaluate on the close price, so multiple trades...

I need to read and write files outside of the Experts directory, to some directory outside of the MT4 file structure. According to the Documentation section here, access to files outside of the Experts Dir is "prohibited". Seems an absurd restriction to me, but I suppose they had *some* reason for...

The reason I ask is that an EA must use the various values from multiple indicators as part of its strategy. The Data Window would be a "one source fits all" solution.

I have a script, when put on a 1-minute chart, that makes a new, updated, offline chart with a new candle every n ticks.  Now the problem is that sometimes, the MT4 terminal (on live feeds and on demo), brings new ticks with a volume increase of more than 1 (tick, not pip!).  Some volume increases...

Attached below is a rather typical MACD indicator that works just fine. My problem is that I have commented out a line of code using SetIndexDrawBegin because it doesn't seem to do anything. I've used small numbers (like 3) and larger numbers (like 27) and cannot notice any effect. So, why would I...

I've come to see that there is a trend in starting to focus on shorter timeframes in the market, particularly with the volatility reflected by the economic crisis. I use MT4 for trading often but have recently found other platforms (such as ninja trader) that offer shorter timeframes based on ticks,...

Hi all here :-) in my opinion here we are some (good) programmers and some (good) traders. What, if we go together, take the knowledge from the traders and put them in our knowledge as programmers and make together a profitable and stable ea? Someone interested? I guess, first we need to find a...

When I use it, I can only logon to MetaQuotes-Demo. Is it a demo version of MultiTerminal what I downloaded? Thanks.
