Im using ATC and have been having serious history data problems for quite some time now. After finally convincing their server admin that theres problems, the answer I get from him is that its a Metaquotes problem. Actually I found that ATCs data

Is there something wrong with my keyboard or is only Mouse Navigation available when using the Backtester Settings Tab

Does anyone have a completed working EA for MT5 that was converted from MT4? Ive looked at the example Wizard MT5 EAs and those are just way too complicated and use C++ with pointers to functions bla bla bla on and on terseness that drives me to

I wrote this Indi to draw trend lines on a chart. Everything was sweet until I decided to make the Indi callable and return some info. to an EA. Problem is now that over time, the Trend Lines fade out. At first becoming dots then disappearing at then

My system requires the Indicator to run concurrently with my EA. They share many of the same parameters , but the problem is Indis dont allow you to load from a presets file. I want to read the EA presets file into my Indicator, and parse and apply

I sure hope MT5 has a Debugger in it. This is the most miserable programming environment I've ever worked with

I have a problem finding the Pending Order Price AFTER the trade Opens. Slippage will change the price to whatever the market delivers. How can I get back my original posted price? My trade management logic works off this price NOT the actual Open

Anyone want to throw some example code my way? All it needs to do is place some text label object with value "Buy" or "Sell" just above the current bar

Im creating a text label object but cant seem to get the placement where I want it ie. just above the actual bar that is the signal. But regardless of the bars location, the Text always shows up in the same location (midupper left) What am I doing
