Hi Mark,
I am new here and try the demo SQ when i can use Custom Indicators i will buy the program, i will load a Custom Indicator but have the follow error after DATA IMPORT AUTOMATIC
‘”SQ is unable to write to C:\ProgramFiles(x86)MetaTrader-Alpari UK,the folder is read-only.
Try to save into another directory.”
I choose for-Metatrader directory: C:\ProgramFiles(x86)MetaTrader-Alpari UK
-MetaTrader data folder:C:\ProgramFiles(x86)MetaTrader-Alpari UK\MQL4\indicators
-Symbol in MetaTrader EURUSD
Is it also possible to load ex4 files Custum Indicators when i not have the MQL4 file?

Hello,
Program Files folder is write-protected and SQ cannot write the required batch file there.
If you want to use automatic imports you have to reinstall your MT4 to some other folder,for example C:\Trading\MetaTrader-Alpari UK
Import is not dependent on indicator source code, so it will work also for indicators for which you don’t have MQL4 file.

Hello Andre,
you can get a second trial license to test SQ on another computer, that should work.

Hello,
it seems there is still problem writing to the MetaTrader folder. Have you configured it correctly? Could you post some screenshots here ?

Running SQ as Administrator solved it for me.
