Encrypted EA

[jxlibin1987]

Can I encrypt the EA Expert Advisor to prevent others from stealing it?

if(AccountInfoInteger(ACCOUNT_LOGIN) != your account ID)
ExpertRemove();

or in fxdreema terms
add that somewhere inside OnInit()

this will lock your EA to only your account. don't share the source with anyone anyway and or delete it/store it better. don't share your fxdreema password with anyone or delete your projects once you download the source. you can always import your source file that was made in fxdreema and it will load it on the site.

source code cannot be seen/changed/accessed on compiled .ex4/5 files so if anyone steals it and you have this code in it it will auto close as soon as they try to add it on the chart/backtest.

you can also make a constant for a password, and make a block in on init that checks if that constant != what ever you want and then terminate.

You can also:
-Restrict the use for a particular broker in the same way
-Add an expiry date under project options

@vnpython-0 Yea, I'm sitting all day and testing people's strategies :))) I really don't care, but I was thinking many times that it's a good idea if the results from the tests can somehow be uploaded to the server, so for each project we can see whether it was profitable or not. I personally name all my projects ".fxDreema", but I have few named ".fxDreema-profitable" from the time when I was playing with some tests and I had good results.
