Hello all,
I have a problem installing an indicator on Mac OS X. I downloaded the indicator for Mac and put it in the indicators directory, as advised somewhere on the net. But the indicator does not show up when I open the MT5 application (I have quit and re-opened it a number of times).
Does anyone have any advice on what to do?
Thanks a lot in advance,
kind regards
Valinda

The right Path to save the files is:
/Users/Your_USER/Library/Application Support/MetaTrader 5/Bottles/metatrader5/drive_c/Program Files/MetaTrader 5/MQL5

Hi,
The correct path is:
/Users/Your_USER/Library/Application Support/MetaTrader 5/Bottles/metatrader5/drive_c/Program Files/MetaTrader 5/MQL5
You need to cd into it in a terminal and then:
open .
Which then opens a finder at that location. Then copy and paste the indicators or experts into the required location. Then open each of the files in MetaEditor and compile them to make sure there are no errors in the files.
Restart all MetaTrader related applications by closing them all to close down the wine instance (the windows and file systems in wine) then restart meta trader as usual .. if its still not visible then please comment here again and we will try to look deeper into your problem.
Hi this worked for me thanks! =)
I have similar problem but actually even more serious.
I don't even have MetaTrader 5/Bottles in Library/Application Support.
MT5 installed through Wine and works perfectly. Just when I go App Support there is nothing what would represent MT5.
Any idea why?
For pkg which can be downloaded from metatrader5.com the path will be like this:
~/Library/Application Support/net.metaquotes.wine.metatrader5/drive_c/Program Files/MetaTrader 5/MQL5/Indicators/
