I don't mean using variables instead of horisontal lines, but doing something that does not require so much values to be saved.

Anyway, if you draw any object with "Draw..." blocks, be careful with the first 2 parameters in each of these blocks. They control how many object can be created by the same block and their names also. Take a look at the names behind the objects on the chart - are they as you expect? If yes, then you can read those objects.

If you have names like red1, red2 and so on, and you want to read the latest object, this is the way: https://fxdreema.com/demo/mt4-object-in-loop
But note that objects are sorted by their name, not by date. And I know that the sorting can be wrong sometimes. It would be like this - red1, red10, red2, red3....
Once I was trying to fix this behaviour, but I think that I failed.

@guille4 Yesterday and today I fixed some problems that I overlooked - login problems and with Formula blocks. I guess that your project self-fixed because of that. Before there were problems with Custom indicators. Now I am not aware of other problems, but who knows.

I also don't understand the idea behind this indicator, but obviously one of its things is printed ahead of the time and if you want to get these values, just use negative values for Candle ID. The other buffers can be read without problems, I hope.

Every time you click on "Start" in the Tester, MetaTrader reads the .ex4 file again. So you can keep MetaTrader 4 opened, replace the .ex4 file in background and it will always be fresh. That's why I made this Chrome plugin https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/fxdreema-download-files/lnlppnklledgeaafojedgemkdhjdgdkp

Of course, you should put those.ex4 files in the Data Folder directly - https://fxdreema.com/index/help/pics/terminal_data_folder.png

mq4 files are source code, they are not used by the Tester. But if you only have .mq4 file and you start MetaTrader, it searches for all .mq4 files that have no .ex4 file and generates their .ex4 files.... and that''s why MetaTrader is often slow to start.

"Once per bar" can pass 1 time per bar (candle). Whatever you have below this block can run only 1 time for any given candle

@ndt113, I don't see this white text, but this forum has some features that I still don't understand

Oh no, I hate MT5 with passion

In what mode do you use MT5? Netting or... what was the other name... I mean, positions or trades? Hedging or not?

@guille4 If this is support... this is fixing problems that I have created. But which project has now defects? I clicked .ex4 on your current project and .ex4 file was generated

@dscoles I was resolving some problems with the desktop version yesterday, mostly wrong indicaton of the time left. Of course I know about all payments from everyone and if something is wrong, I am here to respond. I don't want anyone who sent me money to think that his payment is lost somewhere

Are you sure you want this screenshot to be public?

There are still problems here and there, but as a whole I decided that the system is stable enough, so I removed that red bar. And also because I don't want to scare people too much

I will take a look at that input field

What the hell is that, why so many lines? Something tells that whatever you are doing can be made is much simpler way

We all make mistakes

@casebefx Some bug again. I remember seeing that C7 thing once, now that you are saying, but then I lost it and now I don't remember where I saw it. I now imported few old files and I don't see this. Can you send me some .mq4 file that will cause this problem?

Well, I can compensate everyone and I already added few extra days to some people. I was working on this update for the last year and I delayed it for months, so I'm actually happy that I finally did it. The problems... they were expected and they will disappear eventually

Anyone who wants compensation, tell me

@dscoles The white windows is I think because first the desktop version asks for a file from the server that contains the current version. I made that file accessible, but it still can't find it or something. I didn't investigate that particular problem so much, because it actually works after that. About the incorrect days left, I'm also aware of that as well. At first it slows less days, then more. But this is on my control after all, because this information is sent from the server and I can fix it if something is incorrect.

There is only one reason why I like the desktop version - if someone has giant projects, he can keep them all in it's own hard drive. The database on the server is already gigabytes

@owneroxxor This problem appears to be old, it happens only when no parameters are entered. Look at this !iCustomParameters~ part, there are commas on both sides - http://prntscr.com/d90ydi

It would probably happen again. The problem here is that I use two classes - c and v - for Constants and Variables in the MQL4/MQL5 code. So if you have Variable with name MyVar, in the code it exists as v::MyVar. It's a long story, but something weird happened with the combination of these small letters c and v, and I think this could happen in the old builder also.

In short, don't use c or v for constant/variable name

@guille4 Give me that file again, please. I saw your link in the other topic, but I was hurry to fix some other important problems and now it says that the file is gone

This was ugly. It's working now. I expected problems, maybe not so many, but at the end it will be better. I already see that everything loads almost 2 times faster.
