I'm testing on a 1-hour chart and I see that...

MQ Guys, I've continually asked about better Trendlines in MT4 as well as issues with Trendlines by Angle (refer "Trendlines still a pain in the ...." ) 1. How do I go about maintaining Trendlines by Angle when I alter the Vertical Scale ? You said in the above thread that these would be fixed...

Guys, I looked up in the Forum on availability of free Client API for MT4 and was dissapointed to find out that it won't be available.

When debugging experts, you obvious have a certian degree of reliance on the 'Expert' tab in the Terminal. I find the constant scrolling down (especially if you also work in other tabs) to be a little annoying and cumbersome. Is it possible to have a right-click option 'Flush log to Disk' which,...
