Dear Trader, FXOpen UK would like to inform you about the recent MetaTrader 4 (MT4) update to Build 600 (and subsequent versions) resulting in some important changes to the MQL4 data structure. As a consequence, folders for saving EAs have been moved. All EAs, Indicators, Scripts and Library files are now saved in different locations.

Please note the following:

To identify your MT4 build, click Help > About on your client terminal.

To access the folder with newly saved EAs data from your MT4 client terminal, click File > Open Data Folder to access this folder from your MT4 client terminal:

  • All the experts should be saved in the MQL4 > Experts folder;
  • All the indicators should be savedin the MQL4 > Indicators folder;

  • All the script files should be saved in the MQL4 > Scripts folder.
