You have to attach them to the charts .. on the top of meta.trader, you'll see the View Tool.bar. Follow View-->Navigator--->(then select your EA or Indicator).
Yes, the problem is that they simply do not appear in my navigator. Only the defaults show up.

Mattt,
Does your EA disappear from the experts folder when you're starting your MT4 platform up again?
What is the file extension of the file you're dropping into the experts folder?

I'm having trouble installing an EA or an indicator (i'm using a demo account on MT4). The steps I'm following in order to do this are:
1. Drop EA file into C:\Program Files (x86)\MetaTrader 4\experts
2. Close MT
3. Restart MT
From what I've read, the EA or indication should just appear in my navigator after this, correct? Is there anything else I'm missing?
Thanks for your help!
Matt,
Call this a silly question, but did you compile the EA using MT4's MetaEditor. I have used Virtual Traders Studio to write EA's, and if you don't compile them in MetaEditor, they don't appear as workable in the Navigator.
Best,
JM

The file extensions are: .mq4 and .ex4

These arent EA's I created, they are some of the most popular ones in use here (I'm a noob just starting) that I downloaded off of this site
