why can't I run some ea's when they are in the same folder as the other ea's? what is the difference between ea's that are mq4 and those that are ex4?

mq4 is source code visible.
ex4 hides the source code.

All the gray outed ones are source invisible.
If everyone believes it, it will work.

save it in your experts folder, and restart your metatrader.
Then you will drag and drop the ea to your chart.
If everyone believes it, it will work.
