I'm trying to load this in MT5, but I need some help. I've placed all the files in the correct folders. Also, I opened all files in MetaEditor and compiled. Everything compiles. So far, no problem.
However, when I drag the EA onto a chart, I get this in the journal:
2019.06.16 17:31:23.525 Scripts script LSTMTest (EURUSD,M1) loaded successfully
2019.06.16 17:31:23.564 Indicators custom indicator Simple RPC (EURUSD,M1) loaded succesfully
2019.06.16 17:31:23.805 Scripts script LSTMTest (EURUSD,M1) removed
2019.06.16 17:31:23.806 Indicators custom indicator Simple RPC (EURUSD,M1) removed
Note that the EA loads on the chart for a moment then immediately uploads.
I then tried using the EA in the strategy tester. After clicking "Start" I got this in the strategy tester journal:
2019.06.16 17:25:31.942 MQL5 wrong type, loading of LSTMTest failed
2019.06.16 17:25:31.942 Tester loading of C:\Users\Home\AppData\Roaming\MetaQuotes\Terminal\9EBAECC50A1974DB0763442DEE6D2442\MQL5\Experts\Examples\LSTMTest\LSTMTest.ex5 failed
Any idea what's going on?

Hallo Sid,
My apologies for not replying sooner. I just noticed your comment a moment ago. Not sure why I did not receive any notifications, anyway, hope you are still interested. So the LSTMTest is actually a Script and not an Expert Advisor.
Someone else has messaged me requesting if I could write an Expert Advisor demonstrating use of the LSTM. I'll embark on doing that in the next few days as I'm busy with another project at the moment - but promise as soon as I'm done, I will develop an EA, maybe a simple 2 MA strategy.
Thanks,
Shep

I look forward to that Shep, this looks promising.
Regarding the LSTMTest.mq5 test code supplied with this library. What formula would I have to use in order to convert output from : net.Calculate(in) to the actual prediction value? The output from the method that I get is something like 0.16 while he actual target value is something like 7.59.
Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

This is for the next person since this was obviously 3 years late!
Yes, you placed it in the "Examples" directory under Experts since we now know it is a script. I just took all the subdirectories out of a single "INCLUDE" line of code without issue. Like this:
#include <LSTMNetwork.mqh>
I did this from the LSTMTest.mq5 file, and it is the only file to edit, only 1 line to change
Then I put the include files in the Include folder (they were inside of 2 other subfolders previously and now none)
The I put the other files LSTMTest.mq5 and Simple RPC.mq5 files in "Scripts" since that is what it is, not under "Experts" directory.
Then I compiled the LSTMTest.mq5 file, and it was in my trading terminal ready for use.
After running it, I clicked the Experts tab for MSE, Epochs, and Out values.

Thanks for answering this question. I've been awfully busy and have not had time to check the forum. It was s simple example to how LSTM's at work and for those with the technical acumen, it's a good start to build their own. Thanks once again.
