Back to the point, there is a very good tutorial on MQ4/MQH language at http://www.metaquotes.net/experts/mql4. I'll be right back with the mql references.

I have been writting to support@metaquotes.net many requests and always have received back prompt and so helfull answers from MetaQuotes satff in perfect English. try to contact them at info@metaquotes.net or support@metaquotes.net.

a new website with all examples and user's manuals will be soon in www.mql4.ru in English language.

A great many cries for help go left unanswered on their own forums, their staff often border on being rude (I guess that's the issue with poor English skills on their part), they seem resistant to implementing new features despite continual user feedback and they have never replied to any emails I've ever sent.

I really like Metatrader as a stable platform with a strong scripting backend but there'll come a day soon when a better one will come along by a company who listens to users. MetaQuotes will pay the price unfortunately.

Learning to program MQL? Yeah, join the club on the slow road to picking it up. It certainly isn't easy. The last time I coded was Assembly back in the Z80 days - it's taking me a while but I'm getting there slowly.

Pola,

I wrote to the CEO of Metaquotes at renat@metaquotes.ru - no bounced email and no reply. On your advice, I've again sent the same email to the CEO as well as CC'ing to info@metaquotes.net.

A brief review of their forums site will reveal the English language is certainly not their strength. For a end-user customer support perspective, they appear rude and arrogant and often fail to answer posts. Look at the number of posts with zero replies.

I'm grateful you've chimed in in defense of MetaQuotes' support but at this stage I can't agree with you.

Cheers
Martin
