Seems errors and problems just getting the think to install and then load a chart is the biggest problem here.

Check the help file....I don't think you have a problem....follow the instructions....Long Live MT4 (with Hedge)

Thanks for the reply n8937g


I've decided not to pursue MT5 any feather and will have to look into something else after MT4 is no longer supported.


I have far too much time and thousands of dollars tied up in MT4 indicators and EA's now to have to trash them and start again I think this is borderline criminal and will not do it. Just my option.


I'm presently looking at ProTrader as it supports MT4 & TS code BUT will not work with executable's on any platform, however its painfully slow a memory hog and somewhat confusing.


As you say "long live MT4"

I am very hoping MetaTrader5 can have Ask price chart as well, it help investors to test scalping EA, since there are no more hedge in MetaTrader5 --> peoples will turn to use scalping strategy


thanks, Lenar

8. No tick charts because too much resources on the server side used

No tick charts --> do .hst or fxt file save all ticks ?

i think mt4 occupy too much hdd space and cpu, after u test a symbol over 10 times ~~

Main problem fixed.

USEFUL INFORMATION:

Doesn't work on XP service pack 1. Must be service pack 2 or higher.

MT5 Beta at times keeps reconnecting...causing chart to flash. Relogin seems to of fixed that for now.


OTHER:

Just wanted to add that I am extremely shocked that left and right fib ray was added, but levels colors can't be changed independently.

Almost EVERY other charting package out there has that option. I always considered MetaTrader the best....so I must say I am very surprised!!

Hello,


You have corrected drawing trendline - its good, but what if the values shown during drawing could stay visible after the left mouse button is released (as an option)?

Another request - please correct the crosshair, so that there is no need to click the button each time I want to mark another line (the same for trendline). Also a desired option - to choose the size of the font.


Regards.

I am also considering the alternatives at this time. MT5 isn't even close to ready for prime time. They need to do a lot of work in a very short period of time; they have really left a lot of traders and developers out to dry.

Yes guys.... the people at MetaTrader don't realize the level of trouble MT5 has created......by not allowing Hedge...and back compatibility. We all wish them well but are now cultivating our alternatives....
