I have downloaded ICT’s MT4 indicators. I have moved them in to the MT4 - expert -indicator folder. All of ICT’s indicators are a EX4 file. I think that they need to be a MQ4 file. How does one convert the files and is that foing to allow them to work on the MT4 platform.
Thanks for any help.
Restart Mt4?
It seems like restarting mt4 has work for others. I tried restarting and copying the files in to the expert/ indicators folder, but no luck.
Maybe I misunderstand your problem, but …
… you have to copy the files first and only then relaunch MT4.
The safest way is to close MT4, copy the files and then restart the application.
Side info: It does’t matter whether you have an .mq4 or an .ex4 file type; .mq4 files contain the ‘raw code’ and are automatically compiled to .ex4 files (which are the ones MT4 actually uses) when you launch MT4.
