BE VERY VERY CAUTIOUS

There are very few reasons you would ever need to use a third-party dll with MetaTrader. Normal MetaTrader code will come as either mq4 or ex4 files and won't be able to do anything to your computer outside of MetaTrader.

Dynamic Link Libraries (those dll files) can do ANYTHING on your computer, including capturing username/password information and sending it to people.

There is no reason a MACD file would come as a dll. I'd send that file directly to the recycle bin.

Oh Ok, thanks for the tip. You are right, I will never touch those dlls. but this one comes from My Mentor, Rob Booker. he is a very nice guy. I doubt if he would do a thing like that.

Well I agree. You could ask him if he has tested it and is comfortable that it is safe.
