      Currently all blocks can be copied from one project to other, but constants and variables must be copied manually one by one. Usually this is not a problem, but sometimes a project may have hundreds of constants, and it becomes tedious. This problem arises when converting projects between mt4/mt5, and also when creating multiple groups of similar constants (constants groups for each symbol, for each weekday, etc.)

      Suggestion: Put Import/Export CSV buttons somewhere in the Constants window. Or less visible location in the project settings, I doubt everyone needs that feature.

      What do you think @fxdreema?

        @roar I usually import the full .mql to another project and start editing it, but if you just want the constants or variables yes we should be able to import just those

          @meshii I use the import too, but it doesnt help when making mt4 version of mt5 project, or creating 100 new constants - that would be easier in Excel.

            Just to know do you have any advantages of using mt5 instead of mt4 or it is just a broker thing?

              I make a lot of backtests, and the visual backtest is much better on mt5. Also multicurrency, multi-core optimization.
