Challenges with custom indicators on my MT4 chart

 

Hello moderator/support


I have been having some challenges with loading new custom indicators i created for myself onto charts. I found out that ill have to reload and overwrite chosen indicator into the custom indicator build software to enable me create a new custom indicator and load onto MT4. as soon as it does appear on chart and try to load it onto a second chart it doesnt appear. What could be wrong? 

Moreso my MT4 do not refresh after clicking the refresh button.

I will not list all of the new possibilities and features of the new terminal and language. They are numerous, and some novelties are worth the discussion in a separate article. Also there is no code here, written with object-oriented programming, it is a too serous topic to be simply mentioned in a context as additional advantages for developers. In this article we will consider the indicators, their structure, drawing, types and their programming details, as compared to MQL4. I hope that this article will be useful both for beginners and experienced developers, maybe some of them will find something new.

Technical Support,

 I have not gotten any response on this issue and I have been battling with it for months now. . I had successfully created and uploaded 2 signal indicators with a custom indicator say for instance custom A indicator and loaded them on Mt4 and it appeared on charts. The first one, as usual  created indicator outside the terminal MT4  then copy and paste on metaEditor the normal way, refresh and its there! The second one struggled with it but downloaded it first on my C drive folder before copying it into Mt4 terminal, then it appeared but after several attempts of deleting, re-pasting and refreshing the terminal (which includes restarting MT4) . Then subsequent ones say created another custom indicator using same custom A indicator, loaded unto charts, it appeared and after a while disappeared. This happened twice! Since then nothing has worked for me. 

Surprisingly, when i send the built custom indicators to folks to see if they could assist me to recode, maybe has some coding errors in them, i get surprised when they tell me they can view them on their charts. Lately a friend did recode and called up the custom A indicator and sent back to me, I uploaded by downloading it to my C drive first and then copying into my Mt4 terminal since the fastest option of using metaEditor didnt work esp with using a custom indicator to create a new custom indicator. So now i guess it has nothing to do with coding or calling up. This is beyond my imagination.

So now i have installed a new MT4 with another broker and suddenly all custom indicator i had created with custom A indicator suddenly appears. All of them! So I just deleted the custom A indicator and uploaded it again in the MT4 where i have funds. The newly built indicators now appear. But after a while they are gone. What could be the problem here?? This is really frustrating and getting on me.

Meanwhile creating custom indicators using in-buit indicators is as simple as it is and all i do is copy/paste them on metaEditor and refresh the terminal. thats all.

 

I have deleted and re-installed MT4 once after my 2nd experience. I need help.

 

I had just moved all MQL4 files from my present MT4 platform (A) to (B) and none of my custom indicators appeared on chart. So i returned all files belonging to Platform (B) back to its place. Everything appeared . I then inserted the custom indicators folder into it (B) one more time and nothing appeared.  But some of the CIndicator files i had earlier transferred from (A) to (B) before transferring all (A) MQL4 files to (B) are still visible and still on charts. When i copy from my C: drive  they appear. A very complex one.
