Installation Of An Expert Advisor

Posted on Wednesday, April 7, 2010 in General

It is important to keep in mind that an Expert Advisor must have either an .ex4 or an .mq4 type of file extension, where mq4 is source code, and ex4 is compiled code. After that it becomes necessary to copy down both of these files to the Scalping Forex software and folder of the working directory. Working directory usually means the root directory, where installed the Metatrader 4 is installed. The second step then is to restart the program. After restarting program, add your program to the list of the Navigator window. It is important to keep in mind that the collared icon usually refers to the mq4 file. In case you have ex4 file only, then the icon in window Navigator would be grey. In case everything is successful then sentence ‘0 errors’ appears in conclusion window. Remember that the Warnings cannot be compared to the errors and therefore their presence should not hinder the successful compiling.
