To access the indicators you have the.ex4 files in an EA, use the iCustom function. If you haven't used iCustom, do a search and you will find lots of info. You also need to know which buffer the values you are interested reside in. To see what the value is in each buffer, in MT4 open up the Data Window (Ctrl + D). When you hoover the mouse over a bar on the chart, the value for each buffer of each indicator can be seen in the Data Window. In the iCustom function, you would then specify the buffer whose value you would like to return.
Play around with it and you'll soon get the hang of how it works. IgnoredThere are a few coders on this forum who make design and code trading tools to sell and I have seen many examples of people who find nothing wrong in cracking the ex4 ( you only have to go onto eBay to see many examples of this ) and next thing you know that piece of software is for sell on some obscure website. No thought goes into the huge amount of skill experience and time that goes into programming the indicators/ea's/scripts etc it all comes down to making a quick dollar out of someone else's hard work and knowledge.
I can think of several examples of free software coded on Forums ( that have been cracked and passwords removed etc ) that are currently for sale for thousands of dollars by unscrupulous Forex/Binary websites. This is the reason that many coders on Forums no longer post the source code mq4 so at least it makes it harder for those so inclined and thankfully the new MT4 appears at this stage to be very hard to crack. So at best if it is not illegal then it is definitely immoral. So anyone who thinks its alright to decompile software needs to take a good long hard look at their moral compass.
IgnoredExcellent post. Serial toolbook 115. Alas, the more indicators and EAs that are shared on forums for free, the greater the impression becomes that the software is of little or no value -- and there is nothing immoral in pirating something that has no monetary value. I've been guilty in helping to propagate this notion by freely sharing indicators and EAs, and performing coding and troubleshooting on request. Like the other programmers here, my motive was to help other members, but in one sense I feel I've unwittingly betrayed my fellow developers by making it seem that if it costs nothing, then coding apparently requires little time, effort or expertise. It's good to know that there are no decompilers available, at least not yet, for the new MT4. That will make the task of the thieves and lowlifes who look to profitably reverse engineer copyrighted material vastly more difficult.
