MT4 New Folders

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to create a new folder in MetaTraders indicator/expert advisor tree so that I can store all the different downloads and TRO's donational indicators separately so I can find them again without searching through the lot again.

I didn't actually try it in case it caused a problem.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Not sure if it's possible. However, if you wish to group your indicators you can add a prefix to the indicator name (eg. A_TRO2009_OHLC_Gauge) so similar ones could be grouped and sorted alphabetically.

Thanks monalisa that will help to a certain degree if no one else can give us the lowdown on folders. The main problem is that TRO is so prolific !! which is brilliant, thanks TRO, but I'd like to group the updates in separate folders if poss to make retrieval and updating simpler.

Ditto, Rascacio. I am also having trouble keeping track of TRO's indicator tools :)

BTW, I would overwrite the updated version over previous version so I know I always have the latest.

Yes Lis I will do that if I can't keep them in separate folders. I'd like to keep the previous mod as well so I can revert back to it if necessary i.e The zz semaphore and the updated zz with fractals etc so I can switch between them as I want to but this makes the list of indicators rather large so I'm just trying to condense it on screen in an order that I can remember easily.
Thanks for your replies
