Quoting athalon7DislikedI hear ya, Palmer. I kicked around trying to learn C++ and even started a book. It is daunting! I would love to be able to program and test theories but programming is not something I can do. All I would want is to program MQ4. They say it is like C++ but do you have to learn the whole language to test EA's and indicators?Ignored

Quoting MunDislikedAh I am the complete opposite! I can write code no problem (its my career) but I don't know very much about strategies etc. I've had a look at some EA's. I think learning the whole C++ is overkill - C++ has lots of features that are not in MQL4. Just learn MQL4 straight, or learn just C (not C++) to get a feel for syntax etc then learn the MQL4 API (functions etc). Even in C there is no need to learn the standard functions (like string functions). MQL4 will have its own API and knowledge of C functions won't be very useful. I think just learn MQL4 straight. The syntax is logical you will get the hang of it with practice . Don't just keep hitting the compile button and guessing the fixes until it doesn't complain!
Hendrick - looking forward to P5, sounds like it's gonna be awesome. Good luck with the USD/JPY on the contest!Ignored
Quoting athalon7DislikedIt's like learning a new language. I have found it difficult so far. I definately will have a try at C then. You guys that know programming ought to program EA's for money. Nothing outrageous, just a fair amount for the EA desired. This will help you learn strategies also. There is a topic on "Whats your favorite indicator". Man I found some good food for thought there and some triable strategies too.
About the MQL tutorial, I found the writer had english as a second language and thus found it hard to follow. It's just me though. It doesn't come real easy.
Lets take Phoenix 5, 2007 to the bank and it will all be for naught.Ignored

Quoting Trader83DislikedHi everybody! What do you think about some somehow hedging the account by putting two P4 with different MAGIC numbers on two windows USD/JPY M15? The second P4 should be put after the first one has already opened position, so that the second P4 opens the position in the other direction.Ignored
QuoteDislikedLet's assume that you hedge all your positions, can you please explain as to when you expect to make money? Apart from doubling your transactions costs (pay spread twice as opposed to once) all you positions would net out to zero as what you would make on one you would loose on the other?
