I tried to compile the code below with MT4 but gave some errors.
Could anyone please help to debug and make it to work on MT4.
The purpose of the code is to give alerts when the moving averages constrict.

thanks

Thanks so much for your response, I didn’t know it would require much efforts to align it with MT4.
But thanks for your candid advice, however if there is anyone who could do it, I will not mind paying.
