Maxim Kuznetsov #:

The ChartApplyTemplate function will load the required template. If the template has the required EA, then it will run.

If the buttons of the EA are made by standard objects, then it is possible (but not certain, this is done for work in the visual tester, and not all) that it will respond to ObjectSetInteger(chart,desired_button,OBJPROP_STATE,1)

maybe you will get lucky :-)

👍

 
Andrey Sokolov #:

It was correct there, I was watching incorrectly because the data here sometimes didn't update with new candlesticks if I didn't move the mouse


Maybe I didn't get it right, but if you need to keep track of the latest data, it's better to turn it on separately

In the tester it's the same.

 
Alexey Viktorov #:

Maybe I didn't get it right, but if you want to keep track of the latest data, you'd better switch it on separately

In the tester it's the same.

Thank you

 
Hey guys, where can I find structured information on changes in MQL4? I coded 7-8 years ago and got pretty good at it, so I decided to try again... I'm looking through new codes and feel like a sheep at a new gate! I don't want to spend much time on re-reading them all, so I need some tips on changes! Suggest a quality source please.

The most reliable information here.

Hey guys, where can I find some structured information on the changes in MQL4? I coded 7-8 years ago and everything was good, I decided to renew it... I'm looking through new codes and feel like a sheep at a new gate! I don't want to spend much time on re-reading them all, so I need some tips on changes! Suggest a quality source please.

It is understood that by '16, almost everything from the five was added to the four. Except for orders, tester, external bibles like R. In general, everything is there that is needed. And we should look at the input and return parameters. There are functions where they are different in 4 and 5.

 
Thank you very much! I'll be looking into it!
 
Can I make the trading levels in the MT5 terminal not STYLE_DOT but STYLE_ SOLID, for example???
 

Please help with the code

made an indicator

In the tester it works correctly

When I put it on the chart it does not show correctly

I don't understand why

I can't figure out the reason why.

Did you use the debugger to find the cause?
