Re: Export of MT4 Symbol Properties

Hi - If it is working with the settings from GBPUSD, then the first step would be to copy all those settings and use them when exporting XAUUSD. If the back-test looks betterm then fine tune the individual settings (Lot step, etc) from there so they correspond with your broker's settings. Hope this ...

Re: Export of MT4 Symbol Properties

Hi Ejcmartins,

Could you please do a comparison between your "MT4 Symbol" info between XAUUSD and GBPUSD. It is possible that the instrument information for XAUUSD is not configured fully which could be causing the issue (for eg. the Lot Step setting could be zero causing an issue).

Regards.

Re: Zero divide error

Hi Fepra, This issue typically occurs when there's an error in the EA, the executable is corrupt or compiled for a different MT4 version. Can you please recompiling the MACD Sample and see if this helps? Otherwise I would suggest you download a new version of MT4 and firstly test the MACD Sample bef...

Re: How does the Metatrader Info MT4Config impact MT4 backte

Hi Shawky, I'm guessing that you have an EA that's particularly sensitive to spread. What you could do is work with a fixed spread and break back-test down into yearly time-periods. This would at least give you some indication of spread level and year(s) that your EA starts to degrade and perform fu...

Re: How does the Metatrader Info MT4Config impact MT4 backte

Hi Shawky,

Sorry for the delay getting back to you. Supporting variable spreads is still on the cards, however our first priority is to revamp Tickstory so it can support this and many more features and platforms that our users are asking for.
Appreciate your patience and support.

Kind regards.

Re: Server 2008 Installation

Hi pbageps,

Unfortunately .NET 4.5.1 and .NET v3.5 SP1 are two different products. You will need to explicitly install the 3.5 version to make things work.

Hope this helps.

Re: Zero divide error

Hi Fepra,

Does the problem occur with a standard EA such as "MACD Sample"?

Thanks.

Re: Application error

Hi Norbertbti, Thanks for getting back - great to hear it works now. The issue seems to be pointing to a corrupt .NET installation. We initially thought the problem may be due to some odd setup with where your configuration was stored, however this does not appear to be the case. Hopefully this post...
