Initialization and Cleanup

Having established the supporting helper functions, we now implement the standard MQL5 event handlers, beginning with OnInit() and OnDeinit(). During initialization, the indicator creates the ON/OFF menu button, providing users with a convenient way to enable or disable the interactive Crosshair Volume Profile. Conversely, when the indicator is removed, the cleanup routine is executed to delete all indicator-generated chart objects and restore the chart's default interaction settings, ensuring the chart is left in a clean and consistent state.
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//|                   INITIALIZATION FUNCTION                        |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
int OnInit()
  {
//---
   createMenuButton();
   return(INIT_SUCCEEDED);
  }
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//|                  DEINITIALIZATION FUNCTION                       |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
void OnDeinit(const int32_t reason)
  {
//---
   clearChart();
  }

Iteration Engine (OnCalculate)

Unlike conventional indicators that recalculate whenever new market data arrives, this indicator is designed around user interaction rather than incoming candles. For this reason, the OnCalculate() function is intentionally left empty, simply returning rates_total to satisfy the standard MQL5 indicator interface. All Volume Profile computations are instead triggered by Crosshair-driven chart events, ensuring the indicator updates only when the user selects or modifies an analysis range. This event-driven approach aligns with the interactive nature of the indicator while avoiding unnecessary recalculations on every incoming tick or bar.

//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| Custom indicator iteration function                              |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
int OnCalculate(const int32_t rates_total,
                const int32_t prev_calculated,
                const datetime &time[],
                const double &open[],
                const double &high[],
                const double &low[],
                const double &close[],
                const long &tick_volume[],
                const long &volume[],
                const int32_t &spread[])
  {
//--- EMPTY
   return(rates_total);
  }

Interactive Engine

At the heart of the indicator is the OnChartEvent() function, which handles all chart events and drives the interactive behavior of the Crosshair Volume Profile. Rather than relying on incoming market data, the indicator responds to user actions such as button clicks, mouse movement, keyboard input, and right-click operations. This event-driven architecture enables users to interactively define an analysis range and generate the Volume Profile only when required.

//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//|                      CHARTEVENT FUNCTION                         |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
void OnChartEvent(const int32_t id,
                  const long &lparam,
                  const double &dparam,
                  const string &sparam)

Hello, I want to develop a custom MT5 Expert Advisor (EA) for XAUUSD Gold. IMPORTANT: I want a proper rule-based automated trading EA, NOT a martingale, grid or guaranteed-profit bot. 1. MARKET & TIMEFRAME - Platform: MT5 - Symbol: XAUUSD only - Main trend timeframe: M15 - Entry timeframe: M5 - Must support broker suffixes such as XAUUSDm, XAUUSD., etc. 2. TREND RULE BUY trend: - M15 price above EMA 50 - EMA 50 above
I need a TradingView Pine Script (v6) indicator that gives BUY and SELL signals in real time on the live chart. MAIN REQUIREMENT – NO REPAINTING: 1. Signals must appear only when the candle closes (barstate.isconfirmed). Example: on 1-min chart, signal for the 10:35 candle must appear at 10:36 and never disappear or move. 2. Signals on historical bars must look exactly the same as they looked live. 3. No lookahead
Description I am looking for a highly skilled MQL5 Developer & Trader with strong experience in EA optimization, stress testing, and forward validation. The EA is already coded and running. What I need now is: 1.Simple code editing, code adjustment/upgrading and code tamplates inserting, 2.Parameter Optimization & Re-Validation – Find the best stable settings for XAUUSD (not overfitted). 3.Robustness / Stress Testing

can you help me use a Tickblaze Algo NRBO on the NT platform? I have it somewhat set up, but I have other questions about running it & knowing how to operate it in NT. Thank you if anyone have experience in this kindly bib and let do it asap
I need a trading system similar to the attached files. Check attachment for details on the indicator. i guess the indicator contains some of (Rainbow MA , MTF Dashboard , Symbol Switcher , and Trend Histogram), though may not be exactly as listed
I have a EA/Bot I’ve designed and want it to be put onto me MetaTrader5 this month. I’m new here and also need to figure out how to get a live account and add a UK broker
Hi. I am looking for an experienced MQL5 developer for an advanced XAUUSD MT5 indicator. Before choosing a developer, I would like to see a small proof-of-concept or an example of a similar indicator you have already developed. My final indicator must be written from scratch in MQL5 and I must receive the complete .mq5 source code + compiled .ex5 . Main requirements: XAUUSD MT5 / MQL5 Indicator only — NO AutoTrading
