Hi all, I'm new here and to Forex Strategy tester.
I've written a few simple indicators that make life a little easier for myself. I'd like to use them in the strategy tester, however when I try to add in a new indicator strategy tester doesn't see MT4 scripted indicators.
The ones used in ST have a different extension.
Can anyone advise how to import cistom written indicators?
Thanks in advance

MetaTrader 4 experts and indicators can only be used in MetaTrader itself.
But those experts and indicators could be rewrote by a programmer into Forex Tester format using Forex Tester API libraries (we have Delphi and C++ API for writing indicators and EAs). Please see more information about API here:

You can rewrite EAs and indicators by yourself or we can find good programmer for you, just let us know.

Hi.
Thanks for coming back to me.
Can you put me in touch with a programmer to do the conversion.
I can write C++, was a long time ago now. If a programmer could code this up I can hopefully pick C++ up again and continue converting indicators I've written.
Do you know if the programmers charge for this?
Thanks again for your help
