Hi,
I've designed an indicator to build support resistance levels from multiple time frames. I think its very useful and I want to give back to the community and release this free on the forums here but am wary of some users picking it up, using the code and selling it as their own. We all know this happens. Anyway how can I encrypt the code and only release the binaries and to stop their disassembly???
Regards,
iq

Fair answer is, you can't...
There is always a way to 'open it'.

Obfuscator -> deobfuscator
Encrypter -> decrypter

The reason being that c# is only pseudo compiled (like java)

For NT8, Ninja's solution works well

Not sure binary encrypted indicators are allowed in the indicator downloads though, there used to be a debate, can't remember what was settled.

Thanks. I'll give the free one a whirl first.

The free one is for NT7 (and doesn't obfuscate very well)
