Hi, could someone please tell me how to download Expert Advisors into meta trader and download indicators as well,i have tried several times but no luck, is there a good site where i can get EAs like Gann Hi Lo indicators and Gann Swing indicators, any help would be greatfuly appreciated, Thanks Pat

OK, here's my contribution, (I don't do EA's.)


In MT4 you can add 'templates' and 'custom indicators'.

Templates have a .tpl file extension.
Indicators have a .mq4 or a .ex4 extension.
(.mq4 is in the programming language that someone has written the code for.... and .ex4 extension is the "compiled" indicator that MT4 can actually use.) You can put either one in the indicators folder, but the .mq4 is the only one that a programmer can modify.

Now, if a .tpl template calls for a custom indicator in the chart, then you must have that custom indicator loaded in the experts/indicators folder for the template to be able to use it.

Templates:
As you know, the templates go into the templates folder;
My Computer > Local disk C: > program files > (your MT4 broker) > templates
That is the .tpl template folder.

Indicators:
Custom indicators go into the experts/indicators folder;
My Computer > Local disk C: > program files > (your MT4 broker) > experts > indicators

If it is a .mq4 file, then you will need to close MT4 and re-start it again. When you do this, MT4 will compile the .mq4 file into a .ex4 "executable" file that MT4 can use. You will see this indicator in the list when you go to "Insert" > Indicators > Custom at the top of your MT4 screen.

You've found it. Now, you can use the search bar at the top of the page for specific indicators, etc.

Thanks Price for reply,so i have to save the indicators in indicator folder and then just add them to my platform, is that correct?
