So I cannot Transfer EA to MT5 because they are almost work on Renko Custom Chart.

I already research on Google, Forexfactory, MQL5 community 3 months ago until now but still cannot find Solution.

I will be very gateful for your help.


Thanks,

 

Of course EA cannot open trades on renko chart, because it is custom chart, it is not real market information and price.

Open a position on a custom chart does not make sense.

Otherwise imagine this:

  1. I create a custom chart with open price at $100, I let my EA buy 1 unit.
  2. Since it is custom chart, I can set the next price to be $100000, and I let my EA exit my position.
  3. So should my broker deposit $100000 into my account? Ask yourself.

You are wrong.

A renko chart is just a presentation of price/time just like a candlestick chart.

What I mean is you can base on entry on custom chart, to open order in real market. I.e. you have modified EURUSD data to your custom chart, base on signals, you can trade EURUSD accordingly.

But you cannot open orders on a "custom chart market". I.e. you have modified EURUSD data to your custom chart, and want to trade straight on this chart where the market properties are defined by your own.

Thanks @mfx123 for your answer. I got your Ideal!

The thing is MT4 have Offline chart that can trade different type of charts than only standard bar,line & candlestick chart, and MT5 dont have anyway to do the same. That is not a innovation.

MetaQuotes  should have a way, a kind of custom chart that can update REAL MARKET directly, and trade on that.

We develop Renko EA on MT4 but Backtest Speed is So SLOW, than we try on MT5 for better Speed.

After Complete EA Coding, we recode to MT4 and use on Offline chart.

I cannot Imagine what MT5 do better than MT4 at this point.

Agree with you.

With big DEV like MetaQuotes, they can do everything if they take care.
