Interview with Merab Sturua (Merabiko)

The most important thing for the Expert Advisor is the logic, the strategy contents. Applicability under all market conditions and a properly written code. Money management is helpful, of course. But only as an idea about how much of the deposit one can lose and how much profit one can expect to gain. If there is a clear idea of to what limits the profit-loss fluctuations can be expected, it is possible to provide the program within a half of an hour with a plough-back method or with a technique that prevents losses of the profits gained.

I dont know, whith the MetaTrader it is also every Time a little bit problem to work with curs datas.

I ask my self to if it is possible to write a Tickchart, that runs live, I have seen before one that was stored as offline chart.

Or for example, when you build a offline chart with the period conventer script, for what is a offline chart good :-), I want a live chart that build them self by every Tick new, a offline chart dont do this.

I think there are a lot little think that i dont understand about the MetaTrader and because of this dont can build what I want :-).

I want a access to the Tickdata and want can use it every Time I Want and need man :-).
