My question is, why do some EA's stop working properly after MetaTrader puts out a new build version? Is it the coding of the EA or the coding of MT4?

Thanks for the input.

Post moved here.

What Ea? the expert sub windows shows some subnormal message?

Any one else having problems with the latest build, i can not alter anything in MetaEditor and compile it without a hex crash occuring and shutting down the platform, if i do not alter an indicator in any way it runs fine but as soon as i try to edit an indicator that is loaded on a chart the system crashes, i have tried a fresh download but nothing seems to work, any ideas. I had no problems until this new update this weekend.

I had a similar problem. I tracked it down to that the indicator had a "dynamic name" (that included its main settings); with that removed it all worked fine. There was some obscure reference on the MQ forum about the fatality of deleting objects from a -1 window, which possibly is what happens when the window id is dynamic.

Hi cja

I have had problems with one demo acct (IKON-Royal) since the new build came out. When switching between TFs it would take longer to open and my hard drive was working in overtime. I did not have any dynamic indies installed neither did I have any EAs. Another friend noticed the similar problems starting last week. Anyway, I am now using ODL's demo and it seems to be "normal". I haven't used these demos long enough to know what is "normal" so if others are having problems and they post them, perhaps we can get a consensus and know what to expect.

Regards,

I checked some MetaTraders:
- i do not have any problems with Alpari rus, Liteforex and IBFX;
- and the problems with Alpari UK (Metatrader is crashed if I am attaching indicators).
Same build.
Just wonder why it is different?
Same metatrader, same indicators, same build ...

Hi ND.

I agree. Should not be any different. Perhaps it is specific to that one broker and their server. I don't know enough to know what the problem could have been. ODL's platform is working fine and all is back to normal now. May have been an isolated issue.

Thanks....

Let´s investigate a little more

The official release news says:

Quote:

20 March 2008 New MetaTrader 4 MultiTerminal Build 213 has been released.

What’s new:
1. Fixed error of volume distribution when opening positions for accounts with different deposit currencies.
2. Fixed error that caused terminal failure at a disabled Multiple Close By mode.
3. The digital signature of our company is added to all executable files.

I´ve only updated half installations.

The Build 211 Metaeditor.exe is 996KB 1.020.017 bytes

The Build 213 Metaeditor.exe is 0.97MB 1.024.968 bytes

Don't know why Windows do that

I´ve compiled without problem same indicator, a common MTF MA, with boths builds 211 and 213 using Alpari (Rus and UK), FXDD, NWFB and WHC.

Problem solved, instead of updating an existing MT4 platform i went direct to FXDD and downloaded their latest MT4 platform, loaded in all my indicators templates etc and it now works fine, there must be an update issue with an existing build in some circumstances.

FIX = Download fresh MT4 build off your broker, then load in all your previous settings indicators EA's Templates etc
