I have been reading over the reference manual "MQL4". I can't find the correct reference to a string for Symbol(). Alert("Currency=",(),Symbol()); At the moment the Alert reads the currency at the top of the watch window. How can I change this to reflect the watched currency that I wish to look at?
Hi I am in the process of developing a DLL for MT4 that I want to return a string that is generated inside the DLL. If I use a function in the DLL like char* ReturnResult(char* stringToReturn) and pass the same string in as I get in return there is naturally no memory leak as it is a pointer to the...
Please find attached MT4 scripts that that allow a hot key to be assigned to each required TF. i.e CTRL 1 MN, CTRL 2 weekly etc.so that when applied to a profile of markets all of the markets change to the same time frame. These scripts have worked perfectly until recently. I’m not sure why, maybe...

Hi guys, I'm working on an indicator that presents a market overview, showing stuff like symbol, quote, tickvalue, atr, and swap. My broker is using a 0 swaptype. I've done some research and the best thing I could find is this formula: MarketInfo(symbol,MODE_SWAPLONG)*MarketInfo(symbol...

About the AutoTrading button at the top of the Terminal, which I recall used to be named "Experts" or whatever: I was fairly certain that pre upgrade, the "Experts" switch would pause my EA, Alerts, everything the EA did. Now when I click the "AutoTrading" button so that it displays the red dot, my...

Hello, my EA is supposed to never put takeprofit/stopbuy/sellstop so it will close with a minus position but sometimes it still does it. Here is an example: http://imgur.com/a/xGWKq (i hope it's not too small). EA puts a buystop at 1.06285 and it bought at 1.06290. Is there a possibility to check...

I am a developer and I want to work on 1 terminal, If I use 2 terminal, I have to copy sources to 2 terminal. That's Annoying. Can You do that like this picture or Duplicate same mt4 process (not copying terminal folder. that needs copying source too.)
I set EventSetTimer(1) in OnInit (bool result is "true") , and I put my code in void OnTimer, but the indicator is still going through OnCalculate, which defeats the purpose of using OnTimer because the data received from the broker isn't faster than 1 second in some cases. Is there a way around...
