VS_PipsCola Installation Guide

Actually the installation process of an EA is very easy, because you just need to put it in the Experts (folder) directory of your Metatrader platform. But sometimes an EA uses the indicators that are not available on metatrader. And this will be a problem if you can not distinguish between indicators with EA. Not to mention if EA has the library files and include file. All these files should you place it on each folder.
Generally if you install Metatrader on your computer, then they have the same directory structure no matter with your broker. The difference is the name of the root directory. As in the following figure is from Metatrader directory structure of Alpari Broker.

Installing VS_PipsCola
There are four files that you need to put in the proper directory to make EA vs_PipsCola working. The four files are composed of an EA, 2 custom indicator and a library file. Actually there are an others file which are also used by EA vs_PipsCola_D01, but you do not need to worry because the files are already available in your Metatrader.
  1. VS_PIPSCOLA_D01.Mq4, it is the EA. This file must be located at: C:\Program Files\Your MetaTrader \experts
  2. Keltner Channels. Mq4, it is indicator. This file must be located at: C:\Program Files\Your MetaTrader \experts\ indicators
  3. CK_Spee.Mq4, it is indicator. This file must be located at: C:\Program Files\Your MetaTrader \experts\ indicators
  4. Pipscola.dll. This file must be located at: C:\Program Files\ Your MetaTrader \experts\libraries
Allow dll import
Because the EA uses external library which is made from C++, then you need to configure your Metatrader platform to allow DLL import. You can do it by pressing Ctrl+O in your chart window, and then the option window will appear. Just click on Expert Advisors tab and you have to check the Allow Dll Import.

Update on Sunday, December 5, 2010.
To install VS_PipsCola_Y01 then do the same as above. What you should know, both use the same indicators. The difference VS_PipsCola_Y01 uses the library named "Charlotte3.dll" while EA file named "VS_PipsCola_Y01.mq4".
