When I refreshed the navigator window to show new EAs (build 670), I see the new EAs available for trading.  But I do not see the new EAs available for backtesting in the strategy tester . So that means that either the strategy tester also needs

I was wondering if there was a method to save inputs for indicator ex4s.  Expert Advisors there is no problem to save the settings [.set] file, but the indicator input screen does not have this.  using mt4 build 670.  This is annoying

https://docs.mql4.com/runtime/resources I was wondering if it was possible to compile other file types as resources within ex4 file.  like png, zip, dll, etc.  So everything can be packaged in one ex4 file :)

How do we change the logo/icon picture of an expert advisor in the about tab to our own custom logo? Can this be compiled/embedded in the ex4 file so that when we distribute the ex4 file, the logo will be included without the need to link/copy the

I'm running a backtest on one of my EAs on mt4 build 625 and suddenly the backtester will stop, like it is paused but I didn't pause it (also I'm not running visual mode). It seems to always do this whenever 7 trades are opened simultaneously. Then I

I wanted to know how to update the graphic on the indicator or expert advisor properties 'about' tab. I found this: https://www.mql5.com/en/docs/basis/preprosessor/compilation but how do we include the graphic. Is there a max filesize for the

This seems somewhat related to this bug here: https://forum.mql4.com/60924 In this bug, the strategy tester report did not properly display the string inputs. This bug was fixed in 610. A new bug relates to the tester log files ([mt4

I have an ea compiled from build 509 that I input settings in tester and the string inputs are normal (509): Then I use the same ea and run it in the strategy tester build 600: You can see that the string inputs are strange numbers instead of the

I was wondering if it is possible to pause a backtest and then resume the backtest after restarting mt4. (visual mode) none visual mode i do not know how to pause backtest in the middle of the backtest

For mt4 build 509, I implemented the following code so that I could print the bid, ask, and volume of each incoming tick on a backtest or in live trading. //+------------------------------------------------------------------+ //| expert

The "go to definition" is not working. i've tried highlighting the word, then right-clicking. I've also tried only right-clicking with the cursor on the word. No luck. but F1 key seems to work after downloading the helpfile and restarting

Is there a method to chart backtest results (the trades that occurred during the backtest) without using visual mode? If so, how do I do this? Visual mode can often sometimes take a very long time to run with tick data backtesting. The non-visual

I wanted to know if there were shortcut keys specific to strategy tester functions: start/stop testing PAUSE testing I'm particularly interested in the pause testing shortcut, without having to click the mouse

I wanted to know how to speed up the visual backtester beyond 32. 7000 lines of code and with tick data (dukascopy via birt csv2fxt) each trading day is taking about 1.5-2.5 minutes. I was wondering what could be done to speed this up. I am using SSD

Is it possible to backtest a strategy in the tester and still place live trades in a demo or real account with EA or manually? It appears so, but I wanted to confirm that these two operations. In the same way that each ea runs in a separate chart, a

Currently, mql4 can only provide time down to the nearest second for incoming ticks. We use the following function: MarketInfo(Symbol(), MODE_TIME) 1) Is there a different function that can provide millisecond time stamp or can be used to determine

Can asynchronous order tickets be processed at the same time? Meaning can I make a trade open/modify/close request #2,3,4, etc without waiting for confirmation from request #1. "MT4 does process multiple orders at the same time and this change

I think I remember previous builds being able to select multiple entries in the account history and then drag them onto the chart.   This automatically draws the arrows for the entry and exit and the connecting dashed line that shows which exit
