Is it possible to zoom out or in the charts "stepless"? When I push the zoom in or zoom out button I think the steps between zooming sizes are too big. Sorry for my poor english - hope it´s understandable what I mean.

Can any one explain meaning of "A Required Resource was" error message followed by total freeze?

I posted a problem with backtesting - generating 'phantom' trades on MT 4. Several members of the forum kindly suggested work arounds. Thanks! Today, I back tested an EA on MT3 and had exactly the same problem. This seems to me to be a serious problem and I would like MetaQuotes to make a...

Last data feed update was 12:15:13 for me =| 15 minutes later, all data is stll frozen. The old MT seems to be working fine.

I have backtested an EA on version 178 called 'Firebird' which promptly turned 10'000$ into 655'000 $ in a mere 4 years. What a performance! Looking at the Strategy Tester Report, I see hundreds of phantom trades which certainly could not have been generated by the EA. The report is very big so I...

I found this article on your website. Is there any chance to change limits? Trading is permitted for the symbol under test only - you wrote. This is not good. I'd like to use not only other symbols but charts of other currency crosses. This is important for good strategies! Charts are magnificent...

This is Russell. You may have seen some of my posts on this forum before. I've been actively playing around with MT and especially MQL4 and have came across a strategy that examins the current price only; absolutely no technical indicators are involved. Basically, I just wrote a routine that...

Interesting question asked over at the Yahoo forums which I'd like MQ to answer please. - When a EA is running on my trading platform can the broker tell what it is that I am running? - Do they know what paticular script is being used? - Or do they only see the orders that are placed? - Can they see

Does any body knows why there is a several pips gap between closing of one candle and opening of the next one. For example FXCM data have open equal to close of prior candle. How do you use this discrepancy in a calculation? Is there any missing time between the candles?

Does anyone else notice an abnormal behaviour of MT4 build 178? Default Line Study toolbar is without "draw rectangle", "draw triangle" and "draw ellipse" being selected. When I select them, they only appear for that particular session. When I restart the MT4, they disappear again, so I must...

there are many bugs using trendlines on higher timeframmes and zooming down to smaller timmeframmes many many pips wrong pretty often also on gann grid

If you (Metaquotes) can write an MQL script that creates whatever time frame I want, why can't you write code to make the client-terminal itself do it??? Huh?

The explaination I got from the directory is " Indicator line offset relate to chart by timeframe" Can some one expand on that ? Below I have a moving average where I have set the MA_shift to 0 and I am not sure what it gives me with regard to the calculation of the moving average. Further on in...

Hi guys, I'm running an expert and found that several trades were opened when they were not supposed to. Altough it may be a bug in my expert code, what cofuses me is that those trades contains the words "activate/auto" in the "Comment" field... what does it means, and how those trades appeared...

I was on my 2 weeks of demo account with Interbank fx, I use the Metatrader 4 v178, built some codes, but the problem is when I try to open order or modify order, i get the Error 139, order is locked. What is happening here? Is it because I have too many orders in a day, or is it because I try too...

I must have made over 50,000 trades (guessing), maybe 100,000 trades. I took my $3,000 demo account to over $2 billion probably. I'll never know for sure because I got an "Out of memory." error. I've got 1 GB of RAM. Would have been nice to see the end result. The first billion was made in the...

Period separators in H4 format do not separate 24hour period. Each candle should represent 4 hours between the separator lines. Instead they separate 5 day period. Any settings I have to change or it is a bug. Thanks in advance.

Do volume in metatrader4/mt3 representing real transaction volume (lots)in global forex market in arround the world ?? ..or 'tick volume' ?? Thanks a lot!

Can you organize FORUM into categories,please? It's difficult to find anything... Regards Rafael

It would be nice if the New Order menu would have initial values filled in and in compliance with the required pip limits instead of all 0.0000. The values should be continuously updated until the order is submitted.

Since MT4 has changed the way they use OrderComment() from MT4-Beta to MT4-Final, I would like to request that a MagicNumber() column gets added on the following reports: 1) "Trade" tab on the Terminal 2). "Account History" tab on the Terminal 3). "Results" tab on the Tester I'm thinking about...

are u working to get a news provider to work with metatrader like reuters for example or do it already exist?
