And the truth is I won't be where I am today if there was none of these free codes shared on the net in the 1st place, am I not forever grateful ? There is always 2 sides to consider, the good and the bad, and which is the more important will be the guide - it's in the way we look at them.Ībout paying for the work, it is not always possible to do so. Indicators and EAs that are shared on forums for free ALWAYS involves hard work, knowledge, expertise and skill, and there is someone out there who is GRATEFUL that you magnanimously and generously shared it for free, I am one such person. I can agree the work that goes into writing codes is trivialized by some but not all, we cannot expect everyone to know about the work that they are unfamiliar with, neither can we expect everyone to have a grateful attitude. How will this be possible for someone like me to 'write' my own codes if not for the vast number of mq4 files freely shared on the net ? I do this to explore my ideas. The way I do it is to cannibalize code structures from other peoples works to use them when it fits into my requirement, I have to search the web code factory for the appropriate spare part. I learnt to write codes from no prior computer programming background(I have a long way to go to be a competent coder). People just do not understand how much time goes into coding.

If it is so important to you to change the code and you want to make money why don't you pay this person an adequate amount of money? If I would not be able to code and want something that helps me earn money I would be happy to pay for it. I used to put online a lot of code in the past and sometimes when I feel like it I will still do so but if someone comes along and tries to abuse this it just makes me not wanting to contribute anything.

And yes decompiling code comes equal to stealing an idea. If everyone thinks like this there will be no one posting code anymore. It's the fact that you do not honor the wish of the person you are working with. Why shouldn't we just steal all the stuff we need from the stores, they will just lay around in the storage anyways.

Why not just steal someones code who has put much time and thought into it just because I want to be rich. Why should we value traffic laws if no one gets hurt. That is the moral standard we are looking for.
