Hello guys,


I bought an EABuilder software for generating EA's without any coding know-how. But for the main indicator I need to use in my EA design (please see attached MQL4 file) the EABuilder program generates an error message and therefore does not compile code involving the attached indicator to work at all. The message is as follows:Important: Custom indicators used in any EA must be programmed in the new MQL4 language. The MQL4 language has changed significantly since build 600 at the beginning of 2014. Old, incompatible indicators include the functions init() and start(), whereas new indicators include the functions OnInit() and OnCalculate().


I am no coder (in fact a total coding illiterate) and I do not know what to do to update the indicator as required by the Builder program yet using the indicator is central to my EA design - can anyone help me most urgently? This is very important to as the I_Sadukey indicator is a most reliable source of support/resistance data needed for the EA to work. Looking hopefully for help asap.
TM

Hey CrazyProg - very many thanks really because your solution has gotten me out of a real jam - it worked no problem. But please let me request one last favour i.e. to do for me exactly the same thing you did for the I_Sadukey for the three attached indicators. This will give me a complete set of compatible indicators for use with the EABuilder (and allow me implement my EA design). Hoping sincerely you will oblige me thank you.

Ok, np. I'll check your indicators and will try to fix them.

It seems to me that 'ZigZag.mq4' and 'BB_stops_(new_format)_1.3.mq4' already are in the new format. Please check them, thanks.


Therefore I fixed only 'Chaos Semafor - 3_Mod.mq4'.
Please test it. Thanks.

First a big thank you sir for fixing the 'Chaos Semafor - 3_Mod.mq4' - I am very much obliged.


Please do not feel I am being bothersome, what you are doing is a life line to this very important project of mine to get my strategy automated. Yes we have observed that the other two indicators you say appear compliant do load as such but then the EABuilder does not appear able to read them into code. But we will try again and if you do not mind, I will send you any specific error messages that might help you get to the root of the problem or at least allow you tell us what might be in issue with those specific indicators. In the meanwhile (and I plead with you for patience and understanding) I am sending attached an older format of the 'BB_stops_(new_format)_1.3.mq4' in the hope that if we still have problems with the new format your correction of the older version should enable us use the attached tool to the same effect (the older version is definitely not compliant). Please do humour me as I know I am encroaching very much on your time - but as you might imagine I pin a lot of hope on the combination of these particular indicators to run the EA design  and if we could get especially the Bbands stop attached to work (now you have fixed the semaphor - then we would really have all we want to code the strategy with the builder. But your help so far is more than appreciated. Thank you very much indeed.
