Mql4 reference смотреть последние обновления за сегодня на .
🤍 With MQL4 for Metatrader4 we create an Expert Advisor that can pass an array as a parameter to a user defined function - by reference. In this video, we are going to create an Expert Advisor that is able to pass a complete array as a parameter to different function. So let’s find out how to do that with MQL4. To get started, please click on a little icon here or press F4 on your keyboard. Now you should see the Metaeditor window and here you want to click on file. New file, Expert Advisor from template, continue. I will call this file simple array reference. Click on continue, continue and finish. Now you can delete everything above the ontick function and the two comment lines here. We start by creating a small array. This is an integer array and we want to fill our array with a few numbers. Please keep in mind that the first array item is always index zero. These array items are like boxes and we assign values to these boxes. This is just for a simple example and it’s a good idea to create small little programs like this one to find out how things work, because now we want to find out if we are able to pass our array as a parameter to a user defined function that is called add values. This function doesn’t exist so far, so we need to create it in a few seconds and we will get a returned result. So let’s create a chart output here. By using the comment statement. It will output the text the returned result is followed by the result that we have created, but this function doesn’t exist so far. So we need to create it now and our function will be called add values and it will get to the array as a single parameter. And we are using this little trick here. This is for INT Integer and this little ampersands symbol is used for references, so now we can try to add a few values by adding the array indexes zero, one and two, and finally we use the return statement to return the result to the main function, and that’s about it. Well, if you have no idea what all the code here does or if this was too fast for you, maybe you want to watch one of the other videos in this basic video series. And on our website, you can now find a link for basic courses that also contain the source codes for this basic video stuff. There is also the link for the Premium Course. This was another idea of a Premium Course member. And if you are already a Premium Course member and have an idea for a video like this one, please let me know. For now, please click on the Compile button or press F7 on your keyboard, that should work without any errors. And if that is the case, you can click on a little button here or press F4 to go back to Metatrader. And in Metatrader we click on View, Strategy tester or press Control and R. Please pick the new file simple array reference dot EX4. Enable the visual mode here and start your test. Here is the Expert Advisor, and it says the returned result is fifty six. So now let’s go and check the source code. We have added up eight and 16. So this would be 24. The third item here is thirty two. And if we add all three items, the result is fifty six. So let’s actually add another value here for index three. Now recompile the code, stop the current test and restart it. And this time it says that the returned result is one hundred and twenty. And in this little video, you have learned how to add up all the elements of an array that we have passed by a reference, and you have coded it yourself with a few lines of MQL4 code.

🤍 With MQL4 we can Code a custom function when we need one for our Expert Advisor. In this Video we are going to create a function, double a value and return it to the main function... In this video we are going to create a custom function, in our case the function will double a value each time when the price changes so let's find out how to do that. First we want to click on a little icon here or press a F4 in Metatrader and now you should see the Metaeditor window and here you want to click on: “File/ New/ Expert Advisor (template)” from template, “Continue”, I will call this file: “SimpleFunction”, click on “Continue”, “Continue” and “Finish” and now you can delete everything above the “OnTick” function and the two comment lines here. First we want to create a static variable for the counter, it will be called: “counter”, it's an integer (int) variable and the modifier: “static” is used to declare a local variable. A local variable is only available inside of one function, when you highlight the word: “static” and press F1 you will see that the “MQL4 Reference” says that the storage class of “static” defines a static variable, the static modifier is indicated before the data type and it exists throughout the function lifetime. Now we want to call an external function to double the value, the function we call will be named: “DoubleTheValue” (double the value) and we will pass the “counter” from the static variable here. Let’s create an output for the current value by using the “Comment” function, it will output the words: “Counter Value” and the current value of the “counter” on our screen but if we compile the code right now we will get an error that says that the double the value (DoubleTheValue) function is not defined, so let's create that function. The first thing is always to define what kind of value will be returned by the function, in our case we are going to double whole numbers, so we will return an integer value (int), this is the name of the function, I have called it: double the value (DoubleTheValue) but you could use any other name and inside the round braces here we pass the value of the “counter” to the new function, here is where we pass it when we call the function: double the value (DoubleTheValue) and here is where we get the value inside of the function and you can see that we use another name here, you don't need to call it “counter” because this is just the value of the “counter” that has been passed here. Let’s add two curly braces so this would be the declaration of the custom function but when we compile now we will see that “not all control paths return a value” and that is because we didn't do anything inside of the function and we have not returned a result, so let's take the counter value (CounterValue), multiply it by 2 and store the result in a new variable called: double value (DoubleValue) and afterwards we are going to return the result by using the “return” command, actually it's a “return operator”, it terminates the current function execution and returns the control to the calling program and that's about it. So let's compile the code one more time, now you should not get any errors and no warnings and if that is the case you can click on the little button here or press F4 to go back to Metatrader. And inside of Metatrader we want to click on: “View/ Strategy Tester” or press CTRL and R, please pick the new file: “SimpleFunction.ex4”, enable the visual mode here and start a test and now you should see the counter value and a doubled value that comes up every time the price changes, this is a very simple example we only do one thing inside of the custom function and we only pass one parameter, you could perform much more complicated stuff but in this short video you have learned how to create a custom function with MQL4 and you have done it yourself with a few lines of MQL4 code.

🤍 With MQL4 for Metatrader4 we create an Expert Advisor to calculate the long term trend with an SMA crossover EA ...
🤍 With MQL4 for Metatrader4 we can create an Expert Advisor (a program for automated trading in MT4) that is able to automatically do what humans can do. In this video we are going to create a very simple EA by using the default template... In this video we want to talk about the MQL4 template that is used to create a basic Expert Advisor and we also want to talk about the content inside of that template. An Expert Advisor is an automated program that is able to do everything that humans also could do. This is one of those Expert Advisors, its trading right now; it is able to open and close positions without any human interaction and to create one of those Expert Advisors you would click on this little icon here or press F4 on your keyboard. This is the programming environment that comes with Metatrader 4 and MQL4 and to create a new Expert Advisor we can use the wizard, we just need to click on: “New/ Expert Advisor (template)” from template, now we click on “Continue”, I will call this version: “SimpleEATemplate”, click on “Continue”, “Continue” and “Finish”. And here is our template! The upper part contains some information about the name of the template, the copyright and the website that we have provided in the process, these double slashes are comments, so everything that comes behind double slashes is ignored by the complier it’s just for us humans to make things more readable Here we have some properties for the copyright, the link, the version and there is also a property called: “strict”. If you mark the property expression and hit the F1 key you will see the help file and it will explain that a property is additional and it’s a specific parameter. For example “strict” means that the compiler should use the strict compilation mode, the copyright property would be used for the company name and so on. Inside of the template you will find an “OnInit” and an “OnDeinit” and an “OnTick” function. These are built-in functions, let’s mark “OnInit”, press F1 and we learn that the “OnInit” function is used for initialization because it’s the first thing that is running as soon as we start our Expert Advisor. “OnDeinit” is the function that will run before you close your Expert Advisor; you can use it to clean up before you close your Expert Advisor. The most important function is the “OnTick” function because this one will run every time when a new tick for a symbol is received and that is always the case when the price changes. You will find further functions like: “OnTimer” and “OnTester”, if you are interested just open the MQL4 reference by pressing F1. For our simple example we can remove everything above the “OnTick” function because this one is the one that is most interesting, we can also remove the two comment lines here and everything between the two brackets here will be executed each time when the price changes. Right now you could click on the “Compile” button here and you would already have a working version. So far it doesn’t do very much; we are going to change that in the next few videos. In this video you have learned how to create a new empty Expert Advisor that is created from a template and you have done it by generating a template with a few lines of MQL4.
🤍 With MQL4 for Metatrader4 we create an Expert Advisor to create a button object on the chart that can be used as a buy button - because we also will create the event handling for the button... In this video we are going to create a simple buy button object directly on the chart, so let’s find out how to code that with mql4. To get started please click on a little icon here or press F4 on your keyboard, now you should see the Metaeditor window and here you want to click on file, new file, expert advisor from template, continue, I will call this file, simple buy button, click on continue, continue and finish. Now you can delete everything above the ontick function and the two comment lines here. Inside of the ontick function, we are going to use object create, this will create an object of a defined type. The first parameter is for the current symbol on the chart, the second parameter is the name, the third parameter is obj underscore button if you mark that and press F1 you will see that we have lots of different object types and this is the one we are going to use, it will place a button on your chart. The next parameter here is the window, we would like to have the button in front of the candles that’s window zero. If you would use an oscillator like the MACD that would create a separate window below window zero, that would be window one but let’s place the button on the main chart, we have no values for the date time and for the price because we are going to set the placement for our button by setting a few properties now. To do that we use object set integer for the current symbol on the chart, the second parameter is the name of the object, in our case, it’s the buy button, the property that we want to change is object property x distance and we will set it to two hundred pixels. Afterwards, I would like to change the width, so let’s repeat that object set integer for the current symbol on the chart, the name of the object is the same, this time we are going to change a different property, this is called object property x size, let’s set that also to two hundred pixels. To set the distance from the upper or the lower border we repeat the whole thing that we have done here but this time we change the property object property y distance, let’s set that also to two hundred pixels. Of course, we also need to define the button height that’s done by using obj properties y size, and I have used fifty pixels here. We can pick one of four corners for our button that is done by changing obj property underscore corner in my case I have chosen corner three and to make the button useful we need to set some object property text. Let’s remove the bracket here because this is for the end of the function. Now you could actually compile the code but the button wouldn’t do anything and to change that we need to add some event handling, therefore, we need to use a predefined function that is called on chart event. It uses several parameters. The first one is for the event id and the other parameters are used to pass values depending on the object type. Let’s find out what kind of event happened and to do that we check if the id equals chart event underscore object underscore click. If you mark that one and press F1 you will see that we have lots of different events, for example, key down for the keyboard, this would be a click on the chart but we need this one because we want to find out if the object was clicked. That’s where we can use the sparam value because it will pass the name of the object, in our case it’s the buy button, so let’s create a comment statement that will output the value for the s parameter, so it should say buy button was pressed and afterwards we use order send for the current symbol on the chart to open a buy position for ten micro lot, so please don’t do that on your real account, use a demo account. You can create one from right inside of Metatrader and one more thing, the on chart event will not work in the strategy tester, so you actually need to drag the expert advisor onto a real chart. Let’s close the if statement and the function and that’s about it. If this was too fast for you or if you have no idea what all the code here does maybe you want to watch one of the other videos in the basic video series or maybe even the premium course on our website might be interesting for you. This actually was another suggestion from a premium course member and if you are already a premium course member and have ideas for videos like this one just send me an email but for now please click on the compile button, I don’t have any errors and if that is the case you can click on a little button here or press F4 to go back to Metatrader. And in Metatrader please make sure that you are on the demo account, please open an empty chart, look for the new file simple buy button in the navigator window and drag it on the chart.
When passing ANSI or Unicode Strings to our mql4 Dll we must be careful about managing memory leaks. What's a memory leak you ask? It is bits of code left in memory that builds up and crashes our computer.

🤍 If we want to check several timeframes, it would be obviously a lot of work to create a separate module for each time frame so we want our module to handle all the time frames and we don’t want to recode it every time. And, we want people to be able to change the time frame in the expert advisor properties. Please hit the F4 key to bring up Meta Editor and remove every occurrence of the time frame value. So now, we would call our module CheckAnyTrend. And we would now declare a variable called extern double TrendFrame with the value of 10080. If you mark the word extern, and hit the F1 key, you will see in the MQL4 reference that external variables are available from the properties window. In the OnTick function, we want to call the CheckTrend function and handover the value TrendFrame to calculate the trend. Now, I open the CheckTrend MQ4 file and save it with the name CheckAnyTrend.MQ4. Right here, within the round brackets, it will receive the double value TrendFrame and it will now use the value TrendFrame to calculate the trend. So we have no fixed numbers anymore and now, we would be able to use our module for each and every time frame. Don’t forget to save it, and I will also give the main expert advisor a new name. The compilation succeeded but we got warnings. The reason is: The iMA function expects an integer for the time frame and we have used the double value. We are going to fix this in the next part. For now, hit the F4 key, select the new expert advisor and hit the Start button. Okay it works. In fact, the double value is more accurate than an integer value. This is the reason it says it’s a possible loss and it’s a warning so you should correct it, but you don’t absolutely have to, everything you absolutely have to correct would have created an error over here
🤍 With MQL4 for Metatrader4 we create an Expert Advisor to allow or disallow trading based on a start time and a stop time. We are using datetime to get the current time and allow or disallow automated trading. In this video we will create a filter that is going to allow or disallow trading based on the current time so let's find out how to do that with mql4. To get started please click on a little icon here or press F4 on your keyboard. Now you should see the Metaeditor window and here you want to click on file, new file, expert advisor from template, continue, I will call this file, simple time filter, click on continue, continue and finish. Now you can remove everything above the ontick function and the two comment lines here. We start by creating an input string for the start trading time, this one is set to 9:00 am but I will change it to 1:00 am in this case, the input modifier will allow any user to change the values in the expert properties tab without any recompilation, we also need a stop trading time, this is set to 10:00 am so trading will be allowed between 1:00 am and 10:00 am, obviously we need to find out if the current time is between those two timestamps, so let's create a variable current time, and finally, we want to allow or disallow trading that's done with this variable, trading is allowed, it's a bool so it can either be true or false. Inside of the ontick function, we start by getting the current time that's a datetime variable and we are using the function time local, so let's mark that and press F1 and we learn that it returns the local time of the computer where the client terminal is running so that's your PC and in the next step we use time to string to convert the time that we have calculated, we want to use a special format called time underscore minutes, let's mark that and press F1 and now you see that we will get this format, hours and minutes divided by a colon. To check for the entry conditions we are going to use a function that is called check trading time and if the return value is true we consider to open a position, this function doesn't exist so far so we need to code it later on. The second entry condition will be if orders total returns a value of zero so this is true when we have no open orders or no open positions and if both conditions are true we are going to use order send to buy ten micro lot. Obviously, you wouldn't do that on a real account you would add other things like entry signals from an indicator or something like that but for this simple example, it's good enough. Let's add a chart output the comment statement will output if trading is allowed, the current time, the start trading time and the stop trading time that we have defined but now we need to create this function here, it is called check trading time and it's boolean so it can either return true or false. In mql4 that will be represented by zero for false and one would be true and to set the trading allowed variable we are going to look into the current time, we are using string substring to find a certain value and the value that we are looking for is the start trading time, let's mark that and press F1. String substring has an original string and we are going to look for the value inside of the string, the starting position in our case is zero, the second parameter is for the length of the substring, in our case it's five and if we can find the defined start trading time within the current time we will set the trading is allowed variable to true. Otherwise, if the current time contains the defined stop trading time we would set the trading is allowed variable to false. Finally, we use the return statement to return the trading is allowed result to the main function and that's about it. If this was too fast for you or if you have no idea what all the code here does maybe you want to watch one of the other videos in this basic video series first or maybe even the premium course on our website might be interesting for you. This was another suggestion that came from a premium course member and if you are already a premium course member and have an idea for a video like this one please let me know. For now, please click on the compile button or press F7 on your keyboard you shouldn't get any errors here and if this is the case you can click on a little button here or press F4 to go back to Metatrader. And inside Metatrader we click on view, strategy tester or press control and r, please pick the new file simple time filter dot ex4, mark the option for the visual mode here and start your test. Here we are! The current start writing time is 1:00 am so within a few seconds we should see the first position right here on the chart and the filter should switch to one, that happened right now, now let's click on stop, go to the expert properties and we are going to change the start reading time here, restart the test and this time we should see the first trade

🤍 In this video, I would like to show you something that I think is very helpful. And right now you see that I'm doing backtests in MetaTrader 5. Because MetaTrader 5 is able to to do that. And it's very fast because MetaTrader 5 does support multicore processing. Each of my CPU cores can now do 25 tasks, as I am right now doing 101 complete backtests. And when you watch the results here, you will see that we have profits, and each of those tests has a different amount of total trades and a different expected payoff and a different result. And that's because I'm doing it with random entries. Now you might ask yourself, why should anybody use a random entry to do tests? Well, actually, this is a good way to find out if your system works, because not the entry is the most important component. It's rather how you react. And it doesn't make sense to make decisions based on a handful of open positions. So you can see in each of these 101 test series, I have about 3000 total trades. I'm running the test for a whole year. I do it often and this one gave us good results. This is the one that I did before. Those results are also okay as we have no losses. But there are times when you will see spikes like this one. This is a drawdown in the middle of the year. And as I said, in the beginning, you have to define the time span. In my case, it starts on the 1st of January and it ends at the last day of the year. And this drawdown is right in the middle of the year. So the system has time to recover. But what do you think would happen if I said that the backtest should end on September 16th? Well, I think you would be less satisfied with the results because that would have been a loss. And this is where people actually give up. Because when you see something like this happen on a real account, you will be convinced that all that trading stuff doesn't work, and you will be sure that the system will never recover again. And those back tests here, actually, yes, they take time, but they don't take much work. The only thing I do is to pick the next currency pair here. Click on Start. Now I see that the four cores are going to work. Here is the status, and now we see the first results. Each green point here represents a profit, but it doesn't mean that it needs to always be a profit, just with a few changes in the system. For example, here in the risk percentage value, I could easily modify the system in a way that it only produces losses. And that's why I think that the best idea to invest time is to do mass testing like I do with this system. Metatrader 5 is able to automatically import all the historical data that is needed for a test. And by now we have made 86 out of 101 tests so far. It looks good for this currency pair. Now this test series is finished. This time we have about two and a half thousand trades for each test. The drawdown looks very good. That isn't always the case. And if you think that 24% is too high, you might want to adjust the settings for your own needs. It really depends on your risk tolerance and your account type. My account type is good for up to 70% drawdowns as my broker has low margin requirements. Let's do another one. I have not modified any settings but you really need to find out if the currency pairs you trade will work and I go with the ones that produce good results and I leave out the ones that produce bad results. I always do backtests for at least one year. And when I'm done with all the currency pairs that I trade I will start right over with the year 2020, do 101 tests for each of these currency pairs. And afterwards I will do the same thing for 2019! And that's how you can do hundreds and hundreds of tests on a single rainy afternoon if you use meter MetaTrader 5. I have to admit I wasn't willing to change from MetaTrader 4 to meter MetaTrader 5 for a long time. But this mass testing ability and the fact that historical data is imported automatically really saves a lot of time. And we can get a lot of real trading experience in a fraction of the time you would need otherwise. So if you would like to see results like this one, I think you should at least try MetaTrader 5 and do this mass testing thing. It's not very hard to set it up. I have some other videos about it. In this video we have done 1, 2, 3, 4 different currency pairs so far. The results look good. Thank you for watching. And I will see you in the next video.

🤍 With MQL5 for Metatrader5 we create an Expert Advisor that can pass an array as a parameter to a user defined function - by reference In this video, we are going to find out how we can pass a whole array as a parameter to a different function, this is possible. So let's find out how to do that with an Mql5. To get started, please click on a little icon here or press F4 on your keyboard. Now you should see the Metaeditor window. And here you want to click on file, new file, Expert Advisor from template, continue. I will call this file simple array reference. Click on continue. Continue and finish. Now you can delete everything above the Ontick function and the two comment lines here. We start by creating a simple small array for integer values, because this is just a simple example to show the concept. And it makes a lot of sense to create small programs like this one to find out how things work. So now we assign values to our array. Please remember the first value can be found when you access index zero. All the array values are whole numbers. We want to use those numbers for a simple calculation. So we want to pass the whole array to a function that is called addvalues. And please remember, usually we are going to pass parameters, but this is a whole array and the returned result should be shown on the chart. So let's add a comment statement here that will show us the text. The returned result is followed by the result that we have calculated. But this function doesn't exist, so we need to create it now. And here is where we need to add this little symbol here. It's the ampersand symbol inside of our user defined function. We want to add the values for the array for index zero, one and two. And afterwards we are going to return the results to our main function, and that's about it. If you have no idea what all the code here does, all of this was too fast for you, you probably want to watch one of the other videos in the basic video series first. By the way, on our website, we have a link for additional courses where you can get the source codes for this basic video stuff. That's also where you can find the link for the Premium Course. This was a suggestion of a Premium Course member, and if you are a Premium Course member and have an idea for a video like this one, please let me know. For now, let's click on View toolbar and press the Compile button. Or you could also press F7 on your keyboard. You shouldn't get any errors. And if that is the case, you can click on a little icon here or press F4 to go back to Metatrader. And in Metatrader you want to click on View Strategy tester or Press Control and R. Please pick the new file simple array reference dot .ex5. Mark, the option for the Visual mode, if you can't see that, you might need to drag this little bar upwards. So now please click on start. And here is our returned result. It is fifty six. We have added the first three values here. That is eight plus 16. So this would be twenty four. And when we add this value, this will be fifty six. So let's add actually another value here. Recompile the code and when we stop the test and start a new one, you should see a new value that is returned. This time it is one hundred and twenty. So our little Expert Advisor works as expected. And in this little video you have learned how to pass an array to a user defined function and you have coded it yourself with a few lines of MQL5 code.

This is a full beginner guide in programming an Expert Advisor for #MQL4 trading robot or algo trading or algorithmic trading also for #MT4. I cover in detail how to create a stochastics indicator trading robot or expert advisor using this indicator: stochastics oscillator. The #stochastics oscillator indicator is a momentum indicator comparing a particular closing price of a security to a range of its prices over a certain period of time. I will be conducting this basic indicator trading strategy on GBPJPY. This Strategy I am programming on MT4 / MQL4 can be used on other forex pairs but must be modified for that currency pair. This how to guide will require some basic knowledge in the MQL4 area but overall this video has enough for any beginner in the MQL4 space. Creating this expert advisor or using this expert advisor is also for beginners and can be changed around to suit your trading strategy since the code is very basic and easy to use and understand. For this how to guide if you need any help you can refer to the MQL4 help guide in MT4 program by pressing F1 key. These MQL4 videos are all in a playlist to help learn more about programming all in a few lessons. I hope this video helps you on you MQL4 or programming journey!

🤍 With this Expert Advisor we will import external MQL4 source code into our main file, so that it can be used over and over again for automated trading with Metatrader4. In this video I would like to show you something, it’s how to import external source codes. This is a strategy test and when I click on stop you will see that we have an rsi signal here that’s actually what’s calculated inside of the strategy test but you don’t see anything because I didn’t change the template so far and its possible to exchange the module, the external source code. If you click on the include folder inside of your Metatrader installation directory, you will see files that have the extension mqh. There are lots and lots of files inside of those folders and you can open them with Metaeditor or with any editor and this is what you see. This is all source code, its readable for humans, these are hundreds and hundreds of lines of source code, they are provided by Metaquotes but we want to find out how to import our own source codes, so please click on the little button here or press F4. Now you should see the Metaeditor window and here you want to click on file, new, expert advisor from template, continue, I will call this file simple source code import, click on continue, continue and finish, now you can delete everything above the on tick function and the two comment lines here. We start by using an include statement, I would like to use a file that is located inside of a folder that is called import. I have created this folder and the file I would like to import is called check entry underscore macd, this is an mq4 file so it’s a source code file, so I don’t have to write all the source code again, I just do it once for each entry and I can import it over and over again in all of my systems. Now we will create a string variable that is called signal and it will call a function that is called check entry to get the signal for the macd, and finally, we will use the comment statement to output the word signal, followed by the calculated signal and that’s all. Now I can click on the compile button, and it works without any errors but remember you would need to have the same source code file here otherwise the compilation process will not work. In my case, I can click on the little button here or press F4 to go back to Metatrader. Now I click on view, strategy tester or press ctrl and r, I pick the new file simple source code import dot ex4, enable the visual mode here and start a test. Here is the expert advisor, it creates buy and sell signals and when I stop it you will see that it actually has calculated the macd indicator, so let's exchange that and use rsi in the source code, I re-compile the code, restart the test and when I stop it this time you will see this is the rsi indicator. Actually, I have created these import files for several expert advisors and indicators and once you have created one of these files here you can use them over and over again. Let’s copy this one, that’s for the bollinger bands, I will paste the file inside of the import folder that I have created, let’s close this one, exchange the entry, click on compile and when I start a new test and stop it you will see the bollinger bands are calculated. This is a very easy way to code something once and re-use it again and again, and in this little video you have learned how to include external source code files and you have coded it yourself with a few lines of mql4 code.
🤍 Text on the chart is nice, but we want dynamic data to be included like the Ask price. The comment function in MQL4 can do that and even more...
In this video I will show you how to fix your sample dll the comes with metatrader 4.

🤍 With MQL4 for Metatrader4 we create an Expert Advisor that is able to recognize keystrokes and output the pressed key in a Message box. In this video, we want to find out how to catch a key event with mql4. A key event is whenever you press a key on your keyboard that is a so-called chart event, so this is the chart, you don't see very much right now but when I press the key a I will get a message box that says a key was pressed and the key was a. So let's confirm that with okay. Now I will press the b key and here is the next message box, the key that was pressed is key b and now we want to find out how to code that in mql4. To do that please click on the little button here or press F4 on your keyboard, now you should see the Metaeditor and here you want to click on file, new, expert advisor from template, continue, I will call this file simple key event, click on continue, continue and finish, now we can delete everything that is above the on tick function and let's also remove the two comment lines here. So most of the time we would use the on tick function because this is the function that is automatically called whenever the price changes on the chart but in our case, we are looking for a key that is pressed, so we need another event. This one is called on chart event and we need to pass a few parameters, we already have done that before for the mouse click event but let's repeat the parameters. The first one is an integer value, it's called event id and it will give us the event that happened, in our case we are looking for a key that was pressed. An event could be something like an object that was created or a mouse-click. The second parameter is a long value and this is no mistake, it's the way to pass a value as a reference and because it's a long value its called lparam, actually we will see that what we need is not a long value but it is passed in the lparam. The next parameter is a double value so it's called dparam and the last one also passed as a reference is called sparam because it's a string. That's it for the parameters, so let's find out what we can do. We want to check if the event id equals chart event underscore key down – all in capital letters – and if that is the case we use the function translate key to get the value of the lparam, we convert it to an integer value here and we also want to create a message box for the output, that is done with the message box function that comes with mql4. We want to output the text: key was, followed by the converted key code, this is the heading and here we use an ok button to confirm the message box, it is actually able to handle a lot of flags, you could use something like a yes/no and a cancel button, these are all the return codes, so you can actually check which of the contained buttons was pressed, we don't need that for this simple example, please don't forget the closing brackets here and now you can click on the compile button, that should work without any errors but if you don't understand what all the code here does maybe you want to watch the other videos in this basic video series or maybe even the premium course could be interesting for you. In my case the compilation process was successful, so now I can click on a little button here or press F4 to go back to Metatrader. This is an empty chart window and now I simply drag the expert advisor from the navigator panel onto the chart, click on ok, now you should see that the simple key event is enabled here, so let's press the m key and now the message box comes up and says that a key was pressed, the key was m and in this little video you have learned how to recognize key codes with mql4 and you have coded it yourself with a few lines of mql4 code.

🤍 In this video, I would like to briefly discuss one particular situation and that is a recent trend reversal on the chart. We see two moving averages here. One calculates the value for 1000 candles and the other one, this red moving average is for 11 hundred candles. And when that's up, we have a downtrend. As you can see, it was like that for a long time and predominantly the price moved below these moving averages until that suddenly changed here on September 13. If we zoom into the chart by hitting the plus key, we see this pretty big candle here and that caused the price to move from one side to the other side of the moving averages. That means because the green moving average is currently above, in theory we have an incipient uptrend. However, because the price is below both moving averages, there is no trading until we have a crossover here or the price moves back to the other side. This has the advantage that we are not trading against the long-term trend. Even if our own entry signal provides us with buy and sell signals here, we will only trade again when the current signal direction matches the long-term trend. This has worked quite well over the last few weeks. We are now at an account balance of $10,105. Currently we are in profit here. Who would like, can look at that on the web page PlatinSystem.Org to analyze it more exactly. There you can find the statistics. And currently we see here no trading history, because I have changed the system yesterday again. Because I have taken the situation as an opportunity to set up here above and below the moving average a transition zone, in which is not traded. This means that if the price moves here in the area of the moving averages, then no trade will be opened, because the direction can change again at any time. But if you zoom into the chart and look at this over the last weeks, you can see that we are already in a pretty stable downtrend. And now it's just a matter of waiting to see if the trend finally turns. That would mean the price stays permanently above these two moving averages and the green average stays above the green one. Only then would that be a permanent trend reversal from the descent of the Euro US Dollar. Or we will see another crossover here shortly. At the moment, it looks more like that. That would be a signal that the downtrend continues. And then we would like to continue to sell. Of course, now in the short term, to make things more interesting, we could change the values here for the moving averages. But that's not the point. Because although the entry signal does not determine whether a system is profitable or not, it is part of a fixed set of rules that should be followed. Just like in a soccer game. There are lines and goals and referees. And no one would show up to a soccer game with flippers and a golf club. That's why I'm just going to enjoy the quiet time here until trading turns itself back on. I can just drag the system here onto the chart and have it trade with the default values. And in this simple video you learned how to use two simple moving averages to determine the long term trend direction for your own system so that it will only trade automatically when the long term trend and your own entry signal match. Thanks for watching and see you in the next video.
