Probably the code needs to be adapted to new coding standarts in those indicators.

Cheers :)

A Thanksgivings gift from Ivan and all his cronies

New Empty4 4 Platform Build 920: Faster operation and managing a visual test from the configuration file
Empty4 4 platform update is to be released on Thursday, November 26, 2015. The update will feature the following changes:
1. Terminal: Fixed initial and periodical scanning of trade servers in the trading account opening dialog. Now, availability and pings are defined in a timely manner with no need for manual scanning.
2. Terminal: Optimized and accelerated the client terminal operation.
3. Terminal: The terminal interface has been further adapted for high resolution screens (4K).
4. MQL4: Fixed downloading custom indicators from MQL4 applications' resources. Indicators are included into resources via the #resource directive. This allows creating "all-in-one" applications that are much easier to distribute.
5. MQL4: Fixed the accuracy of the level value display in custom indicators. Previously, the accuracy always comprised 4 decimal places, while now it depends on the accuracy of an appropriate custom indicator values.
6. MQL4: Fixed checking the possibility of reducing an object of one type to another type as a result of inheritance when passing the object as a method\function parameter.
7. MQL4: Fixed recalculation of standard indicators on a specified buffer (iIndicatorOnArray) in case the data is set by an array having a fixed size. Previously, the indicator was not recalculated occasionally.
8. MQL4: Fixed errors in class templates.
9. Tester: Added ability to manage visualization mode when launching the tester from the configuration ini file. The new TestVisualEnable parameter (true/false) has been implemented for that. If the parameter is not specified, the current setting is used.
10. Tester: Fixed an error in the CopyXXX functions that caused the real history data, instead of the test history one, to be returned.
11. Tester: Fixed reading test parameters from the configuration ini file passed in the command line.
12. Tester: Fixed excessive memory deallocation after closing a visual testing chart, which occasionally made history data unavailable for actually operating Expert Advisors.
13. Fixed errors reported in crash logs.
The update will be available through the LiveUpdate system.
