Guide on Installing Indicators on MT4 or MT5

In this article, we’ll show you how to install a VPS Indicator for monitoring trade volume. The same steps are applicable to just about any Indicator.

In MT4

1. Click on File > Open Data Folder 
   
2.  Open MQL4 > Indicators
   
3.  Copy the Indicator file into the Indicators folder. You may drag and drop the file or manually do CTRL+C, CTRL+V.
   
4.  Close the folder and then restart MT4 (close and then reopen MT4).
5.  From the Navigator, expand Indicators and look for the one that you wish to install. Double-click on it or drag-and-drop it into a chart. Click OK.
   

   Done!

In MT5

The process is the same. Except in step no. 2, you’d open MQL5 instead of MQL4.
