In my testing, both (python and MQL) scripts consume the same CPU when running an infinite loop without sleep. void OnStart() { while(!IsStopped()); } image while True: pass image Your EA script is polling on each loop while(!IsStopped()) { uint ...

Yes, you have to poll, but one way or another you have to run a script in a loop (python or MQL). Right now you can request rates, ticks, and order information. The only thing it's missing is book data, but I find book data to be pretty useless with ...

You'll need to run an external script since all MQL programs run on charts, and switching the profile will remove the program from the chart. Here is a python script which will cycle the profiles. You'll need python 3 installed on your computer and ...

Great question. Floating charts removes the window limitations and allows you to separate the chart windows from the terminal. The alternative to using floating charts is to use two (or more) running terminals that are logged into the same account. ...

Hey guys I'm trying to wrap my head around this whole "angle" theory. I'm looking at the latest UJ up-swing on the Daily and I'm coming up with 4 to 85 degree angle... What are y'all getting? image image
- Nicholishen replied May 9, 2018
There's not a single objective way to use angles in trading because it's entirely dependant on subjective visual chart analysis, meaning, it's based on the zoom and scale of a visual-chart only. Since the zoom and scale are completely unique from ...

I hope this adds to the discussion... (this applies to nonFIFO brokers) There's virtually no documentation (or discussion for that matter) regarding the correct way to (manually) partially close open positions in metatrader without accruing ...

Hedging to open is always a bad idea because you pay 2(spread+commission). Conversely, hedging to close costs the same as any other close (nothing) provided you use the closeby or multiple-closeby order. I recently discovered that you can also do it ...

Your logic is flawless, I don't know how I didn't see it before! image

Yes it is written in many resources, relevant swing to relevant swing (highs and lows)... not a random point in the middle of the swing and definitely not close points on any bar, ever. Had you drawn your fib correctly you wouldn've see that we ...

So drawing fibs wherever you want on a chart without any logic in order to line up 61.8 is the correct way? Am I doing this right? image

I was wrong... I ran a diff on the two files. The ZigZagProfExtra file is an old version and the file I posted of his in the OP is his newer/updated version. image image
