It's because for some reason M5 is not included in period multiplication function, it starts from M4 to M1
You need to edit the mq5 file and change period.
Search for this line of code

Code: Select all

   else if(_Period <= PERIOD_M4)
   {
      EMA16Period = 336;
      Print("M4 timeframe: EMA period = ", EMA16Period);
   }
and change PERIOD_M4 to PERIOD_M5 also change "M4 timeframe..." to "M5 timeframe..."
