I'm also involved in an Amibroker to interface to Metatrader project . Someone in that group had this to say in an email today :- 'As for MT4, the pres of the company has said that there will be an API "in a few months." Until an API is available there will be no way to build a plug-in for MT4.' Now

With the build in print (from menu) I can print the chart that I can see at the moment on screen. Currently, I print the first sheet with the newest view, press 'page up' for the last view, print next sheet and so on, to get all views from the timeframe. Is there any way to print the whole chart

That would prevent any expert from processing. You can't exactly reset...

Any chance that this indicator can be added? Another nice one to have would be the BW MFI. Thanks, Josh

I have a quick question about all of this. I was thinking earlier and is this basically babysitting an account? What I mean is that since we don't have direct contact with the script and code etc then this is basically like a custodial account except its not a minor trading but a robot. Please tell
