MQL4 and MetaTrader 4 - page 1548

I have noticed that each time the user changes time frames say from H1 to H4 it activates the deinit() function, like the indicator had been removed and reloaded. Is there a way to tell if the user has actually removed the indicator and not just changed time frames, so that objects can be remove?...

I understand that to test different strategies and EA, one has to install different instances of MT4 with different folder names. Is there a way to install one instance of MT4 and have it run different EA on different accounts. If not, will this be possible in future releases or are there other...

I was going to try this, but the PAR indicator uses high, low and close to make it's calculations where the RSI only provides a single value for each bar. Do you think it would still work if I substituted the RSIBuffer in place of where the PAR indicator is looking for high, low and close? Or...

EA, coded for me, detects reversal when 3DOscilator absolute values 1 and 2 go from > to < (short), and from < to > (long). (I hope I said that correctly) Indicator Window 1, in this case, shows "obvious" reversal signal but EA does not act on it. Data Window values also agree with the Indicator...

Using MetaTrader, I get the following mini account information from my broker: accountLeverage = AccountLeverage(); // value = 200 modeLotSize = MarketInfo("EURUSDm", MODE_LOTSIZE); // value = 10000 modeLotSize2 = MarketInfo("GBPJPYm", MODE_LOTSIZE); // value = 10000 modeLotStep =...

My mini account displays symbol designations such as EURUSDm, GBPUSDm, etc. That makes sense to me. Let's say my account has equity of $10,000, and I want to risk 2% on the next trade (that is, simply use $200 to buy <some amount> of contracts). [I realize this is a simple view of "risk".] Using...
