Not long ago, when running a step-by-step back testing, and indicators were placed in tester.tpl or testing.tpl  ,  it was a case that the indicators that ought to plot as MTF, would not do so. You just could not see where the plotting MTF

I do not have visual studio I am just now looking at MT5. I see that the backtester is seperate and the results are passed back to the MT5 app. I seems to me that possibly the integration with Visual Studio is quite good. ie. seperated out and made

It seems possibly that integration with Visual Studio is quite good. Can someone help out and tell me how integrated backtesting and Visual Studio can be? Perhaps a different IDE is possible too???? Are you getting all watch windows working, can you

Now that MT4 has a MT5 type language. What is easiest way to convert mq4 to mq5. indicators , trades etc. ???? Are there any good articles that address this update

When backtesting sometimes the "tester/history/.fxt" files seems to always want to rebuild......doing the 1min, 5 min, 15 min  and takes a long time How do you overcome this???? ie. speed up a restart backtesting ???? re-use the existing .fxt

I cannot find a MTF indicator that works in tester .    i.e.  run 1 min chart and plot 5min MTF indicator........ Are there any examples to follow? I saw an iunima_mtf.mq5  but it uses stuff not in MT4 compiler

Does mt5 allow hedging? It never used to.    If it does not yet, is it something that has been mentioned as 'going to happen'

When backtesting if you have a FXT file in tester/history i.e.    GBPUSD1_0.fxt and GBPUSD5_0.fxt How can you be sure it is used rather than another being generated? How can you be sure it is not updated? How can you be sure it is not

I logged this as a problem inside MQL5 helpdesk But want to post here to try for a response. When starting MT4 with no network connection many trades in the EA during backtesting do not occur. i.e. 0.10 may trade but 0.24 will not. Problem can arise

When in visual backtesting I can use 'Comment()' in the EA to show parameters. It appears on top left screen. When in normal backtesting - how do you get to do similar? ... i.e. replace the Comment that is automatically placed there. -" NameEA Input

How do you find the current indicator width? I want to preserve the changes rather than go with defaults.              color tmpcolor1 = indicator_color1;

1) Is anyone working on windows and using visual studio? If so are you getting edit and continue features? what is better than if using the MT4 IDE? 2) It appears to me, (maybe only me since im using wine + linux), that the ability to debug ticks is

I was looking at price on a weekly level and there are some really big moves. Is there an indicator that will show you the value between two points? The cross hairs give a meaning value ....... GBPUSD 12271~=12.271 (to 3rd decimal point) 5 digit =

Never really looked at copy trades before. If you invest a small amount in a large fund, are you benefiting from the fund being able to get through drawdown or are you disadvantaged because you calcs are showing negative and thus your contribution is

When trying to run MT4 on a fresh reboot - if the internet connection is not present - then some trades fail in backtesting . Only after reconnection of the internet connection, do the trades perform as programmed. i.e. lots 0.1 will trade but both

when selecting "copyall"  for optimisation results .... the list copied to clipboard is only 128 odd count - varies from time to time. you need to go back and select each 128 odd rows - for as many that are there. Can it be fixed so 'copyall'

All my watches show "expression could not be evaluated" How can this be remedied? Is it that "Wine" needs something installed

When you go back to look at old EA, the one thing missing is having the tester.tpl that you were using at that time. If an EA could specifiy a tester.tpl - or copy and overwrite tester.tpl that would be a nice feature. I suppose winapi could do this

i.e. all the charts lost their indicators. How can this be stopped? I was not using "Default" profile but another, and I think an upgrade came down, or there was some corruption and this triggered a complete wipe. Suppose it is easy enough

There are many many many changes going on in MT5 New tester results panel Checkin/Checkout Magazines etc. It occurred to me that since having the new ability to move MT4 scripts into MT5 - that work in MT4 work will slow and not cover new features
