Indicators and EAs do not belong in the same folder . . .  you know this already,  don't you ?

so i must put ea in :

    C:\Program Files\...trader 5\MQL5\Experts

and indicator in :

    C:\Program Files\N2trader 5\MQL5\Indicators

is it ?

Yes,  of course . . . but the standard advice is not to install MT5 in Program Files to avoid UAC issues,  but that is another issue.

when i run one of my indicator i  have this :

 

1) is that important ?

2 ) 1419 ms = 1.419 sec. ?

To test the performance of an indicator, I am using a very simple EA with the Strategy Tester :

I run it with strategy tester with EURUSD/H1, every tick for last month. If it takes more than a few seconds then your indicator is slow (you can compare with standard indicator).

If it's the case of your indicator, ask to the seller to fix it. If it's not the case, then fix your EA.

thank you for share.
