That "script" is not in MQL language at all. Simply changing the file extension to ".mq4" will not make it "magically" usable in MetaTrader.

It came to me in a txt file.

You can't change it. Its functionality has to re-written in MQL from scratch.

Just because you got a text file from someone does not mean that it can used on any platform. Whatever language it was written in, it is only usable on the platform it was originally designed for, and it is not for MetaTrader.

Find someone who can do it or use freelance service.

I would like to ask you the following ... if you did not know that it was not for MetaTrader, and you also did not know about where it was originally used, then it is also safe to assume that you don't know what it does nor if it has any value being used on MetaTrader at all. So, that being said, why the insistence on having it "converted" to MQL?

You were given it by a "buddy" but don't seem to have experience with it or knowledge about it. Don't you think you are putting the "cart before the horse"?

I'm using the freelance service, but no one seems to be interested. Thanks!
