I coded an indicator that works on my mT4 and gave it to a friend and it works on his as well. He gave it to a third party who is using interbank FX mT4 and everytime he attaches the indicator his mT4 freezes and closes. What are possible reasons on why this is happening?

This is not programming related, so please humor me on this one. Don't you find it annoying that price is going up when your indicator is going down? I used to think that the best way to counter that was finding some magical adaptive window function (that changes the look-back length of your...

Folks, the data coming out of Metaquotes servers is garbage. This problem has been going on for almost 2 years now.
