Does anybody have backups of 17xx or 18xx?

Hi all, like with all recent updates, the newest one once again crashes my EA. Right now I don't have to time to dig into the issue very deeply, so I'd like to just get it started again on an old version. I know 1502 has been posted here in the past, but I'd prefer some 17xx or 18xx, if anybody

How do I prevent auto updates? Or create fallback-points

Hi everyone, does anybody know of a way, to prevent auto updates? Any registry tweaking or whatever? I'm running MT5 on two machines. One, where I'm connected to my broker, and which is running 24/7. And on my more powerful computer, where I'm doing the testing and optimizing. This one is only used

Memory / Indicator error after Stop Out?

Hi everybody, I already sent this to the Service Desk, but then they decided to not take this kind of answers anymore, so I'll try ma luck here if anyone has experienced something similar and knows a solution. This is a problem, that only started with one of the newest versions (some update this

Where is the "what's new" for version 1795?

Hi guys, last explanation for an update I can find in he forum is for 1755. In the meantime my MT5 updated to 1795 and suddenly my experts don't work as expected anymore. They don't crash or whatever, but the simulation results are way different than before. So please, I urgently need to know what

Fake Agents?

Hi there, does anybody know, if there are, what I would call, fake agents out there in the cloud? Last time I used the cloud (which was about 6 months ago) everything was fine. Now, whenever i do some optimization with some thousand passes, hundreds of times I get the same result: Profit -9913,89

Tips on coding very memory-efficient?

I wonder if anyone has any really helpful tips on using the least amount of memory possible, or at least at freeing it again. I'm working on a really big multi-currency EA, using quite some indicators. But still this should not pose any problems for modern computers with 20GB of RAM or thelike

Unresolved Static Variable?

Hi guys, can anybody explain, what that sudden error is supposed to mean? My EA was working flawlessly for months, but since the latest update, I get this error. In my EA I just declare an array CMoneyManagement mms[]; and CMoneymanagement has one static variable. Whats wrong with that? Thanks in

Re-initialization of an indicator

Hi! I have the following problem: in one of my EAs, I want to change the lookback period of an indicator, depending on market conditions. I thought if(h_ind!=INVALID_HANDLE){IndicatorRelease(h_ind;} h_ind=iCustom(...) should do the trick. However, I constantly run into "out of memory" errors, no

How to change, that Tester only uses one year of history before start?

Hi, my second question connected with the same problem... When I start the tester from, let's say 01/01/2009, the history is synched starting from 01/01/08. But I would very much prefer to use all available data, as I try to add some "auto-learning" and for that, of course, each data-point is

Start and End Date of Tester?

Hi everybody, am I the blindest guy on earth? I cannot seem to find a way to use the start and end date, that the user picked in the strategy tester , from within the code, specifically the OnTester() function. Anyone know a simple way? Of course I can, for example, write to a file in OnInit()
