My EA always compiled without any warnings, but recently decided to compile again and have been getting these warnings. For the life of me, I cannot work out why as I'm storing the return value of the File* functions in the correct variable type and only using those variables as int values in the...

i need to count the total open orders by all charts ... can I use simply? bool countok = false;if (OrdersTotal() <= 3 ){ countok = true;}
Ok, I'm not sure if this is a dumb question or if it has been asked often, but here goes. In the Metatrader terminal program, you are given DIRE warnings when you download history data that it might not match that given by the broker. if you have a look in the folders  there is a history/downloads...
I purchased an expensive signal and indicator package from a US company.   Just by chance i opened two MT4 platforms up to check some settings i was horrified to discover that the platforms had completely two different readings, one of them had given a buying signal too.   I then went on to open 4...
Currently, I am exporting all the historical data stored in MT4 into a script by reading off the data stored in the iOpen, iHigh, iLow, iClose, and iVolume arrays.  The problem I have is that it may be the case that the current period's data (which is already available) is not written for some...

I know that mt4 is commercial server. But I think it is quite not right, because lot of people are looking for for api, trying to implement communication with languages for statistical purpose and research. I think should be released some limited or  lightweight version for testing purposes.

Suppose I want to run a scan through all markets available with my broker to look for favourable trades. Say I want to look for any stocks that have reached a yearly minimum. Can I do that with MQL4? I note that the technical indicator functions all have a symbol parameter, so clearly they don't...
The charts seem to open up many days back. Which means I need to swipe forever just to get to the current trading window. Why is the default not the current candle as to me that would make more sense? Is there a short cut in Metatrader 4 android app so that a chart opens to the current trading? Or

Hi, I have for a while tried to figure out how can I change the time frame over multiple windows (Charts) in Metatrader4. What I mean is that when I for example change from hour to daily then I want both XAUUSD and XAGUSD to change simultaneously. Because as it is now I need to mark XAU to change

Hi all, I had an EA which worked fine. As I needed to avoid to open position on calendar events, I've added some more code into my EA. In order to test it, It simply opens a long position if EURUSD market rate is above 1.1300 and opens a short position if the EURUSD market rate is below 1.1300. It...

Now how do I see at what price did I buy this? Like some sort of order history. 2. I didn't enter any value for "Stop...
