Analysis using animals

Ah the perennial favourites. I also like '95% lose', 'market is random' and 'fibs are stupid'

Why is hedging not discussed as much?

The new MQL4 uses unicode strings. Here's an example (script) of how you could do it.

Your products are past their sell by dates and are starting to smell bad. But seriously, where did you get this ridiculous notion?

100% profit

That depends whether you value new features over stability and reliability.

MT4 New build 600 is released

Really? I wouldn't advise that. I wrote these batch files to enable and disable MT4 Live Update. MT4build5XXBlockUpdate.bat stops build 509 from updating to 600+. MT4build5XXAllowUpdate.bat removes the block. MT4build6XXBlockUpdate.bat stops builds ...

So you are saying you do have a choice. You can continue running the stable build 509 and also test the new build and switch over when you are ready. Can you do this with other platforms like cTrader for example? For me this is one major advantage ...

MT4 says "old version" wont update itself

I think you need some new material. Have a look at this. It's right up your alley.

Everyone gambles if there is risk

Nice catch. I would never have spotted that.

Strange. I've never seen that behaviour.

MT4 New build 600 is released

Well the platform tells you it's downloading an update and then puts it in a folder named Metaquotes/WebInstall. It's not really that sneaky! It's just an unnecessarily painful user experience.

MT4 New build 600 is released

I'm running them side-by-side with no problems. On my system b509 gets updates from Program Data\MetaQuotes\WebInstall whereas later builds use <User Dir>\App Data\Roaming\MetaQuotes\WebInstall. So live updates of b600+ don't interfere with b509. ...

I'm pretty sure it doesn't.

MT4 New build 600 is released

Didn't the users always need to know where their installation was located? I would search the system for likely looking "MQL4" directories and give the user a choice. Where the folder path contains an encoded terminal id, display the contents of the ...

MT4 New build 600 is released

The MT4 installer downloads the latest version from Metaquotes regardless of broker. Also, if any build 509 terminal initiates a live update download, all build 509 terminals on your machine will pick up that update when they start. So even though ...

MT4 New build 600 is released

It doesn't seem to work with multiple instances. I just tried it with two open and only one of them refreshed. I generally only have one open when I am developing so I can live with that.

Even better: Use symbolic links. e.g. MQL4/Experts/b509 > MT Build 509/experts/experts/ (EAs moved to this directory) MQL4/Indicators/b509 > MT Build 509/experts/indicators/ It works a treat. Just use RefreshCrapT4 (see url ) to update MT4 after ...

MT4 New build 600 is released

This is too much hassle for me. I just put metaeditor and metalang into the MQL4 directory and compile ex4s in place.
