Hi all, I have MT4 build 151 running an expert onto a given pair, and it start consuming 1MB memory every 3-6 pips received. After about 20 minutes, the MT log says that it doesn't have enough memory, and exits. As I am an experienced programmer, I think I am not creating variables that will lock...

Hi, I think I may have found a misquote in your EURUSD -H1 chart. The bar on 21/05/2005 23:00 has an open/high/low/close of 1.3044.... The reason I'm mentioning this is that ATR produces a "0" for this combination of chart values. For those people who use "volitility units" to trade, "volitility

It may be too late for this suggestion, but it would be nice if MQL4 provided specified functions that if a programmer defined, would be called by MT4 on certain events. Instead of the Start() function that only responds to ticks (ie, a tick event triggers a call to Start()) and then requires the...

Did anyone who is using Metatrader 4 have a connection problem yesterday? I was in a profitable deal and couldn't close my position - very frustrating.

Hi MT, Sorry to hassel but just a quick question as to how far away the MT4 strategy tester is from completion? Must be close now :) Thanks

It would be handy to have the ability to "look inside" a bar quickly using the context menu . In other words, if I were looking at a 4H chart I could click on a bar that would bring up a 1H chart of only that bar I clicked on; and clicking on a bar on a Daily chart would bring up a 4H or 1H chart of

It says in the Knowledge Base that the DDE items below are available : — request ACCOUNT: =MT|STATUS!ACCOUNT — request BALANCE: =MT|STATUS!BALANCE — request CONNECT: =MT|STATUS!CONNECT They don't seem to work though. Is it normal or is it just me ?

Firstly thank you very much for answering my question about error codes ("Error Numbers"). Subsequently I have been receiving many 130 and 138 errors and have not found a good explanation of the process (step by step) execution process of the SendOrder() command. Thus I have a few additional...

Hi guys, I want to get the retracements values for a fibonacci retracement object. let's say the chart shows a downtrend, with higher high at bar 5, and lower low at bar 0. I coded an expert with the following code: ---- ObjectCreate("fibo",OBJ_FIBO,0,Time[5],High[5],Time[0]...

The code below is supposed to indicate a MA Cross but it does not. Maybe I am wrong. macurrent=iMA(NULL,0,5,0,MODE_LWMA,PRICE_CLOSE,0); macurrentslow=iMA(NULL,0,10,0,MODE_LWMA,PRICE_CLOSE,0); if (MathAbs(macurrentslow-macurrent)==0) {Comment("CROSS............");}...

I'm afraid I don't have much information on this bug or able to produce it consistantly but if I have an expert loaded on a chart and then change the period of the chart, the "Period()" function sometimes returns the period of the previous chart, rather than the current chart. I've experienced this...
