Hello I am new to MT4 an I am having a difficult time. I downloaded a demo account from FXCM and MT4 comes with indicators and EA's preloaded so I have tried to load an EA (MACD Sample) on a chart and I drag the thing over there-it opens a window-I cant click ok/cancel or reset! I have unistalled deleted all files reinstalled re downloaded talked to FXCM for 55 min cecked automate checked dll nothing is working! I am on windows 8.1 on my I am connected to the right server because I am getting tick info and the buy/sell in the top right corner I have searched and searched and I can find no solution. Basically most google searches populate how to add a custom EA. I can do that in the open data folder I know how but I cant get any ea preloaded or custom to go on the chart some indicators will not load as well. If someone has a solution that would be great and i also hope i am posting this in the right place.
Thanks,
Rob

I got it working It was so strange my Trackpad on my MAC was not allowing me to select ok/cancel or reverse but it works everywhere else in MT4 and that is why I wasn't finding the problem it was as simple as tab > and then enter and it works!
So here is a new question. on an EA is there anyway to see indicators with it instead of just the ea working on the chart? For instance I want to see Moving Average with the moving average EA so I can see how close it is to a buy or sell. I would Assume that and EA would have to have an indicator inside of it for you to select it but (created with one) but if you install a custom EA ex4 in the Expert Advisor folder what about an indicator that goes with it. Does MT4 need a separate Indicator with an EA? If I have an EX4

Thank you I can not add the same indicator with the same settings as I am not sure exactly what is in there it is an EX4 I bought
