DislikedI wrote this program for myself and i found it useful. There were some our guys expressing interest in the room so here it is.
STEP 1: Enable DDE SERVER IN MT4
Goto MT4- Tools-Options-Server--->Check enable DDE server(Check box)
STEP 2: OPEN ALERT.XLS
Just open the spreadsheet that is attached here and the program will run by itself.
The program should work for most pairs if not all but it will not work for gold and silver. If you want I can code it in.
The program is written in VBA, it checks the prices every 1 second. If the price is near...Ignored
Could my MT4 DDE server be named something different? Just a wild guess. What do you think?
I would LOVE to get this working. I've used MT4's alerts but they're a pain to set up each alert. This tool is quick and easy, can keep it open in another window, very convenient.
Also: I am using Excel 2007. When I opened the file there was a warning and I had to enable the content. Don't know if that helps.
EDIT: I clicked the Debug button in the error, and this (screenshot below) popped up.
Thanks!
Luck occurs when preparation meets with opportunity.
