So I just though it would be an interesting idea to have an indicator, where user could enter formula dynamically and see the result without recompilation.

With a new computer that has a dual core or quad core processor, will MT4 split and run on each processor thread of the CPU or do I need to have multiple instances of MT4 open to equal the...

I was debating whether or not I should share this. I finally decided that I would because I believe several improvements can be made upon it. This EA has been extremely profitable in backtests going back 7 years. It has ran into some problems in the last month or so and the equity curve has been...

Can someone help me check if this EA is profitable? I have followed all the steps to backtest it and still I am not sure. Currency = EURUSD Timeframe = M5 It is called Breadcombe because it only picks up very small profits here and there. Many thanks.
