Your work is yours. Let us know, and we take it down.
How MT Indicator Hub deals with copyright complaints about indicators, files, images and guides on this site, and what to do if your content was removed by mistake.
How a copyright notice is handled
- 01
You send a notice
Through the form on this page, with every required element.
- 02
We review it
A person checks the notice is complete and the material is on our site.
- 03
We act
Valid claims: the material is removed or access to it disabled.
- 04
Counter-notice
The other side may dispute it; the law then sets what happens next.
Report material that infringes your copyright.
Every field marked * is required by law for a valid notice. If you're the author of an indicator and only want a credit fixed, a normal message is faster.
We respect copyright, and we expect the same from everyone we publish.
The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) lets copyright owners quickly ask an online service to take down material that infringes their work, and lets the person who posted it reply. MT Indicator Hub applies this notice-and-takedown process to everything published on the site.
Below you will find what to send, how we deal with it and what follows. It describes our process and is not legal advice.
What we publish and where it comes from.
The site hosts MT4 and MT5 indicator files (.ex4, .ex5 and related downloads), indicator pages with screenshots and settings, and learning guides. Our own team builds some of the indicators; the rest are third-party tools that we review, describe and link to, with credit to the author whenever the author is known.
If you wrote an indicator listed here and want the credit changed, the file updated or the page removed, no formal DMCA notice is needed: a normal message through the contact form is enough and usually quicker.
A complete notice has six parts.
Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3), a valid notice is a written message that contains:
- Your physical or electronic signature, as the copyright owner or someone authorised to act for the owner.
- Identification of the copyrighted work you say is infringed (or a representative list when one notice covers several works).
- The exact URL(s) on this site of the material to be removed, with enough detail for us to locate it.
- Your contact details: name, postal address, phone number and email address.
- A statement that you believe in good faith that the use is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent or the law.
- A statement that the information in the notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the owner or are authorised to act for the owner.
Each notice is read by a person, never a filter.
When a notice reaches us, we confirm that it has every required element and that the material it names is really published here. If the notice is complete and the claim is credible, we take the material down or block access to it and keep a record of the notice.
If we know who supplied the material, for example the author of a third-party indicator, we tell them it was removed and share enough detail for them to reply. If a notice is missing something, we may ask you for it before we act.
We may also refuse notices that are plainly abusive, such as attempts to remove criticism, reviews or fair comment about a product.
Removed in error? You can ask to have it restored.
If material you supplied was taken down and you think this happened by mistake or misidentification, you can send a counter-notice through the contact form (reason: Copyright / DMCA Notice). It has to contain:
- Your physical or electronic signature.
- Identification of the removed material and the URL where it appeared before removal.
- A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you believe in good faith the material was removed by mistake or misidentification.
- Your name, address and phone number, plus a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the relevant federal court and will accept service of process from the person who sent the original notice.
Valid counter-notices are passed on to the original complainant. Unless they tell us that they have gone to court, the material may be restored within the period set by law, usually 10 to 14 business days.
Repeated infringement ends our relationship.
When a source (an author, contributor or partner) receives repeated valid infringement notices, their material is removed from the site and is not published here again. Whether something counts as repeat infringement is judged case by case.
False claims have real consequences.
Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), anyone who knowingly and materially misstates that material infringes, or that it was removed by mistake, may have to pay damages, including costs and attorneys' fees borne by us, the alleged infringer or the copyright owner. Please send only claims you are sure of.
