The first price is the zigzag local extremum of the timeframe, at which the indicator is operating. The second one is based on the values of two neighboring candles with the extremum. Generally speaking, it will not be possible to calculate (draw) through М30-day, for instance.

Take the data and calculate, where is the problem ?

In strict compilation mode, it gives an error

Please help me fix it

declare the variable i outside the block, somewhere at the beginning of the function.

The Debugger doesn't work - what's wrong?

Best wishes to all forum members!

No one has answered my question posed back on page 644. I must have asked it wrong, so I'll ask it again. So,

Metatrader Bild 646, Editor Bild 934. Here is a simple indicator:

I run it on EURUSD, M1, and this is what I get:

I.e. everything is as it should be.

And now I make a breakpoint before Alert and run the Debugger:

USDCHF,H1 chart appears. Where is it coming from? OnlyEURUSD, M1 was open.

I press OK and this is what I see:

I.e. the indicator takes data exactly from this USDCHF,H1. What is the problem here?

The second question. The Editor does not place the written script in the folder Scripts but in the folder MQL4 and places the compiled file there as well. I have to manually drag and drop the source code to Scripts folder, then compile it and the script will appear in Navigator only then. Indicators don't have that problem, they go straight to their folder. Am I doing something wrong or is the Editor making a mistake?

Good luck to whoever answers me.

My debugging doesn't work at all (it doesn't trace). I downloaded MT4 (Alpari) all over again and did nothing else. I don't know if it works in MT4 or not (MT5 works in MT5). I have always been working with such a broker and I have no idea how to use it. I have always been working with this kind of stuff.

The way I see it, if an EA works on a new candle opening (there is a check for a new candle appearing in the code), then testing results on the "open prices only" model should be close to results of testing on the "all ticks" model, or am I mistaken?
