The future of MQL5 is MQL5+ or even MQL6 - page 2

 

Suggestions on MetaEditor appear year after year, the same ones, even "in pictures" in 2011:

https://www.mql5.com/ru/forum/2582/page3#comment_57696

And parallel branches on how to bolt MQL to Visual Studio, Notepad++ etc. )))

There was even a poll on folding in that distant 2011: https://www.mql5.com/ru/forum/2931

Conclusions, gentlemen and ladies.


 
  1. MQL5+ Introduce properties, events in the language.
  2. MQL5+ Bring the editor up to date. Give the Notepad++ developer a freelance task :)
  3. MQL5++ GUI Generator
  4. MQL6 Make an object-oriented SDK. Currently we have a mixture of API for procedural programming + OOP addition to the Standard Library.
 

- Add the possibility to trade several accounts from a single terminal. Of course, with the possibility of easy program access to each account.

- Make a more complete version of the stock exchange tester - with the ability to test at least on the independently collected data full orders log - for tumbled strategies.

 
Additional automation, convenience. Shortcuts, collapses, etc. In general, the more convenient the more interesting. Short and concise)
 

I wonder if the developers will keep their word or not :)

Vasiliy Sokolov:

Wishes on the subject of social trading:

  • Blogs are now tons of information spam from various offices. "Bank of Japan doesn't consider its actions to be easing...", "December 21 review from leading dealers...", "Oil price is down...". - Who reads all this spam? Who needs it? Where are the PERSONAL blogs of users? What place does ALGOTRADING have on blogs? Smartlab (gatherings of amateurs in essence) is really more interesting to read, because they have 100% personal content, and sometimes there are pearls. I have nothing against them, but they should not be the basis.
  • Forum. Compare the forum of 2006-2009 with what we have now. What are they discussing now? Flipping a coin statistics? Martingale? How to boost your Marketplace sales? What kind of topics were discussed then? Yes, on many issues they are still at the top of Yandex. Where have the participants then? There are only fragments left.

s.w. About MQL5 - no need to touch it. There's nothing wrong with the language. Understand, the popularity of the platform doesn't depend on whether or not there's a focus or not. Popularity (in the social sense) depends on three things:

  1. The elite. That around which the community of traders is formed. At the moment, it has safely destroyed itself on this resource. Because in its time, the administration has staked on faceless "masses". What good is this mass of under*#(@? Seriously discuss trailing stops or MACD indicators? Now the elite may be some stars or cool algotraders with their schools, lectures, etc., etc. But where are they? - I'll tell you where: they are on other resources, because they are more interesting there.
  2. Self-expression. A place where people can express themselves. What we have in fact: a forum of very narrowly focused "programmers". Discussion is mainly on the topic of who needs what canvasses and how to turn a rectangular button into a round one. But how can a non-programmer express himself here? A person who does not care about all this programming stuff.
  3. The trick. This is what makes a resource unique. Smartlab has personal blogs of ordinary traders. Old good finam (before it self-destructed and turned into seedy whotrades) has blogs of some traders on statistics, quantitative analysis (I still have some entries in my stash). The old MQL4 forum also had its own thing: these are specific people Mathmat, Leo, Ananimus, Avals. Their mathematical calculations, systematic approach, MathCad charts and "level" discussion. But now this is gone, and unfortunately I don't see any new ones.
I apologize for the harshness, but after all, this is not the first year on the forum.
It will not happen ANYWHERE! MK's priorities have changed.

That's not a bad suggestion. We all chip in $10 each, freelance a job to a developer. Notepad++.

And we'll have MetaEditor++ )))

 
Oksana Berenko:
Add to MetaEditor-e a possibility to collapse/uncollapse pieces of code, like in other programs. Then you won't have a sheet in front of your eyes, but everything will be compact.
Three times plus, we've been asking for it for a long time...
 
Sergey Basov:

Not a bad suggestion. Let's all pitch in together for $10, freelance a job to a Notepad++ developer. Notepad++.

And we'll have MetaEditor++))

Count me out, I'm fine without folding. ))

But seriously, what I desperately need in my language is a second mage for orders. Very often I get all sorts of setups and lockers, which build several grids, each of which needs to be followed independently of the others. And we need, first, to identify all orders of this EA and, second, to identify whether or not they belong to one or another group of open orders. The second Magic would be really helpful since we have to do a lot of work without it. But this is more relevant to Fours than to Fives.

May I give you as much as you need? Write on a global level: Magic = 0; Megic = 123; Migic = 345; Mogic = 567; Mugic = 789;

This is an example, and you can write as many mogic for each group as you want. And you check it in cycles! It works fine! If this is a "perversion", sorry!
