Suggestions for making an MT5 Indicator easier to read

It's a proprietary one that an old acquaintance created. Honestly all I need is to copy the rectangles from MT4 to MT5. So far, the various "square peg" solutions I've tried wouldn't fit into this particular "round hole".

I will code your EAs and Indicators for no charge

Does anyone know of a way to copy objects from an MT4 chart to an MT5 chart? I've got an indicator for MT4 that draws supply & demand zones, and have had great difficulty getting someone to convert it to MT5 for me. Since all it does is draw ...

How long do you wait for 4 of 5 to agree? If 3 of 5 agree at the close of today's candle, and one more joins at the close of tomorrow, do you get in then?

Help - EA run amok!

I reviewed the data from my terminal, and it is running the OrderClose function 3 times before it is executing the OrderModify, all in about 1.5~2 seconds. So I've added a Sleep(5000) function at the end of the loop. Hope that will at least give the ...

Well that's what I thought at first, so I put in the line about checking if the OrderOpenPrice was greater than the OrderStopLoss. Because after it executes the OrderClose, it does an OrderModify to move the Stop Loss 2 pips above the Open Price. So ...

Yes, I think it's obvious that my code needs fixing, thank you. That is why I created the post in the first place. If I knew what the problem was, I wouldn't be asking for help.
