Empty4 Build 500

Post by traderduke »

Is anyone having problems with Empty4's new build 500? I have some indicators that use to work but not with 500. When I saved an indictor to the proper folder, I restarted the platform 7-10 times but still no indicator, I know it sounds weired, but it showed in Internet expolorer but not in Navigator.

It also appears that there is a new limitation to the number of indicators & EA's. Old Builds showed all indicators up to 1000 then it dropped any non-sourse indicators, you could template them but not see or add to a chart. Now the number is 1020 and it drops all indicators more then 1020. Is there anyway to get back to Build 482. All my four brokers are Build 500, Globel Prime, FinFx, MBtrading & FXCM.

There's no way to get back, as Empty4 updates are now mandatory. Its just one of many concerning changes they've introduced, along with banning software from MT4i and breaking myfxbook's autoupdate method. Who knows what they have planned next, but we can rest assured that they don't care less about the interests of traders.

I'm beginning a transition to cTrader while looking for other platforms (cTrader is great but has some oddities of its own).

Time to start a campaign to encourage the brokers to deal with this - it is the brokers who pay these cowboys wages and who ultimately need us retail traders to make any money. Not sure how to go about this, but I do have an entire forum that I can energise.

Any suggestions?

:D
Read the effing manual, ok?

Afterprime is the official SHF broker. Read about them at https://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?p=175790#p175790.

I still suffer from OCCD. Good thing, really.

Anyone here feeling generous? My paypal account is always in the market for a tiny donation. [email protected] is the account.

I've not tried it lately, but to go back to the old version, including all the passwords, simply right click on the Empty4 folder, select properties, select the tab labelled Previous Versions, select the last version, then hit restore.

But I think it will auto-update as soon as you run it ... you can't just delete the updater anymore.

the last build which has liveupdate.exe as different exe is 452... it is the only way to prevent updates
ofcourse, hitting "cancel" when it asks for admin privileges works as well (on the further versions)
But, I am ready to fight back! MetaQuotes are too blatant... In first chance I will change to cTrader...
