DDE and MT4.exe
Hello, I'm trying to use the dde-sample. exe and it can't find MT4.exe. Is MT4.exe a real fine or is it a memory address created by the terminal.exe? If it's a real file, where do I get a copy of it...It doesn't seem to be a part of the current mt4setup.exe. If it's a memory address, what has it
Trading Source Code
Hello, I want to program an EA to do trading for me. A problem is that I don't know all the possible trading actions needed. I wonder if there a starter MQ4 source file that already has the needed code in it, like, BUY, SELL, CLOSE and trailing stops and others I don't know about. I like lots of
