A few days ago some traders posted first indicators and scripts for the Metatrader 5 platform written in the new MQL5 language. Two of them are really impressive and show the real power and new possibilities of MQL5.

1. Slideshow indicator for Metatrader 5 (by Rosh)

This indicator will place custom background pictures behind the chart and rotate them every xx seconds. So now you can create your favorite theme background that maybe will help you to relax during intensive trading sessions. ;)

Indicator properties that you can change:

2. TradePad indicator for Metatrader 5 (by satop)

With this indicator you can add a panel with various custom mini charts and trade buttons / lot options. I think this indicator is ideal for scalping techniques or quick overview of the markets situation.
