Hi, finally I managed to use NotePad++ (google) to edit and compile mt4-files with some surprises :) 1) I created one folder for both mt4-compiler: 32 and 64 bit. (you'll find the HowTo in: Editor=>F1=>Search:"Compiling") 2) In that folder I

Hi, I just wrote a little script for a speed test : //+------------------------------------------------------------------+

Hi, This morning a new editor b1035 was installed and caused immediatly many problems: My Defines.mqh-file (only 163 lines!!) compiles with no Errors in the old editor b996 and terminal b745 (broker 1) this morning: 'Defines.mqh'

Hi, I created an indicator to display volume + spread as 90° turned text objects in its separate window. At the beginning everything looks perfect!, but after a while (some hours on the m1 chart) it gets mad look at the attached snapshot. Can it be

Hi would it be possible to place the search field right beside Topics in the headline, may be with the hint to seek the key words first

Hi, I normally start my terminals in portable mode by a short-cut: path..\terminal.exe /portable. Yesterday I saw in Windows' TaskManager-Command-Line-Tab: path..\terminal.exe /portable /skipupdate. The terminals were started automatically after the

Hi, are here some people that can tell us (me) about their experience with running mt4 on (vps) either KVM with Windows || Linux+Wine or directly Linux+Wine compared to either WindowsServer: crashes, updates, ( backtest -) speed, .. Thanks in

Hi I am experimenting with the good old CCI and enabled to see its 'hidden' buffers in the MarketWatch: #property indicator_separate_window #property indicator_buffers 4 #property indicator_color1 LightSeaGreen #property indicator_color2 clrNONE

Hi, after I wasn't able to eliminate some differences I had closer look at iMaOnArray and I programmed a simple example. I created a buffer (sma(n)-sma(2n)) and let iMaOnArray create another sma(2) which I calculated my self too and displayed the

Hi, I realized that the mt4 built-in function iMaOnArray(..) seems not to update the average with the new ticks of the actual bar. It seem to calc. only at the beginning of the bar - quasi at open - and then the average is not updated each time a new

Hi, I was looking at the source code of the Traders Dynamic Index. First of all I cannot start this indicator by the debugger (- the green button is grey and so disabled??) BUT I can attach it to a chart and it works perfectly!! OK - Now I did this

Hi, I want to place the volume of a bar as a (text-)number at the bottom of the chart, below the bar and always 5 ticks off the bottom. That means 1) if the next bar appears this volume-number should shift 1 bar to the left and 2) it should not move

Hi, I recently realized that the clock of my vps is delayed by ~30 seconds per hour. After some searching I found the reason. Acc. to Einsteins's fomula ;) delay² = 1 / ( 1 - x²/c²); // c = speed of light, x = speed of the server-farm   

Hi, as everybody I see the rectangle at the bottom line of the terminal. Now I find it sometimes on the right corner sometimes on the left corner. One broker shows a green triangle above a black one, the other broker a green one above a red one. If
