!xMeterEA Based on the !xMeter Indicator

[gjrexach]

Hi all:
I am attaching my !xMeterEA which is a Rewrite of !xMeter_v2.1. Seeing as the maintenance for this EA has become problematic due to its lack of structure and duplicity of code, i have rewritten it in a modular fashion, with common functions.

It is far easier to understand than its previous versions, as well as outperforms them execution-wise. For those purists concerned with locality of code, I would suggest replacing the common functions with includes.

Installation:
1.Place the quickSort.mqh in the include Folder
2.Place the !xMeterEA.mq4 in the experts Folder.
3.Compile and read Notes at bottom of Comments Section.

Any and all comments will be welcomed!!! Enjoy...

Hi Guillermo,

Thanks very much for your latest contribution.

I haven't tried it out yet myself, but since it currently seems still to be written in MQL4 I've taken the liberty of moving this thread into the MetaTrader 4 section of the forum. I hope that's OK with you.

From things you've said elsewhere, it does however sound as though this might be one step along the road to a MetaTrader 5 version? That would be an even more interesting expert, since then it would at last be possible to do some meaningful backtests!

Cheers,

Jim

Hi, Jim..
Thanks for moving it to the MQL4 section. You are correct about eventually moving this to MQL5. The current problem is that the EA requires many tradable pairs for it to work properly, and up until now, I have yet to find a broker that supports sufficient pairs on the MQL5 platform. Nevertheless, I have run it through the MQ4ToMQ5 conversion process and am working on the compilation errors. However, I dont want to get too far ahead on the MQL5 version until I can improve the MQL4 version which still has alot of possibilities.

Thanks...
Guillermo
