the reason Im asking this question is because I have been my own coded indicator that I would possibly like to put out on the forums.
this indicator is like no other , with a very complex and unique algorithm
and I dont want it decompiled and "stolen" from me.

thanks

Hi, I'm not a programmer, but it's my understanding that if you publish only the .ex4 file, without the .mq4 file, the code cannot be viewed or modified. Have a look here https://www.mql5.com/en/forum/34518.

...my own coded indicator
If you "personally code" that indicator, you should have the source code file.. unless you are not the one who code it.

If it was me, and the indicator was extremely valuable to me personally, I'd be asking myself some serious questions as to what the benefits would be if I shared it.

Once you post software publicly, even just the object code, you can not undo your action, and you have no control over who will use it, or how. The FX industry is about making profit by whatever means, and it tends to attract some unscrupulous folk.

I don't know complex your algo is, but it's potentially possible for a knowledgeable trader/programmer to reverse engineer a strategy even without the source code.

More hassel than it's worth. Unless you've stolen some algorithm from Goldman Sachs I doubt anybody cares that much.

Guess what! I've got a fever, and the only prescription is more decompiling of your own coded indicator!
