If you use Xfinity / Comcast for your internet, the account includes one or more email accounts that you can set up a password for. Then the MT4 -> Tools -> Options -> Email -> SMTP server is filled in with "smtp.comcast.net:587" Perhaps other ...

Planning For Google Discontinuation Of Less Secure Apps Access

More specifically, the maximum length *description* of an object (OBJ_TEXT, or any other type) is 63 characters. (By the way, the ObjectName length is also 63 characters max). However, there is no similar limit on the length of the *input* variable ...

Minor mods to one of the various OverLayChart versions elsewhere in THIS thread. (I don't use this myself, and have no interest in further improving it, such as customizing where the overlay price-Y axis appears. For the moment, it "centers", and ...

Overlay in MetaTrader

Minor mods to one of the various OverLayChart versions in another thread. (I don't use this myself, and have no interest in further improving it, such as customizing where the overlay price-Y axis appears. For the moment, it "centers", and that's ...

DXY Overlay (not separate window)

P.S. Ironically, "Gray" is actually darker than "DarkGray". Pick whichever default you prefer, but in my tools, since I'm always looking for readability on both "Black" backgrounds and light (usually "WhiteSmoke" for me; sometimes just "White"), I ...

#Signal Bars v10a

Thanks for your effort at the 2nd attempt, but the 1st is actually much better. The effect of monitor "Scale" settings, and the use of the right scaled fontSize, in pixels, and the placement of the labels also, is very confusing. At 125%, your ...

#Signal Bars v10a

Yes, that looks great! Thanks. My PC has the scale set to 125%, but it looks fine, nearly the same as if 100% scale: image Here is the 100% monitor scale view, which is extremely close: image

#Signal Bars v10a

Hi cja, On my large, 48 inch 4K monitors, I consistently use 125% scale to help my "old" eyes see better. The default 100% scaling is too small, causing eye strain. Using 125%, this is what your tool looks like: image At 100%, it looks normal: ...

#Signal Bars v10a

First of all, you have the source. I myself have no interest in a button for this because... This is a script. A button does not make sense, nor does it make sense to write an indicator that must run on every chart just to display a button. Instead, ...

Maximum overkill Close-All script

Hi mladen, Great News reader tool! Nice presentation of the info, esp. the clean vertical lines for events, and the slightly transparent list of events (so one can still see a bit of what's underneath, and it is of course movable on the chart). ...

Yet another news reader...

4aCause, As you have noted elsewhere, you are not a programmer because if you were, it ought to have been self-evident that the original 2 files had been combined into just 1 file. The "b600" file is the only one that will compile with current ...

Recent SR indicator

In 2014, I posted an updated version, "Recent SR original v2_0.mq4", here which most likely still compiles on the latest MT4. FYI, it also requires a Library file, but instead of using the link in my old post, instead use the one posted here. (Q: ...

Recent SR indicator

Hi cja, Fyi, I attempted to use your "Symbol Changer MT4.ex4" script, but it quit prematurely before changing all of the open charts. I opened an old profile that had 25 charts with several symbols and timeframes for each. Only a handful of charts ...

MT4: script to change all chart timeframes at once

I don't know of any MT4 property one can query to determine the broker data's timezone. I've only been able to figure it out by manually inspecting the hourly data on the charts, but this is problematic on some brokers at this time of year, because ...

Updated post#1: 2021-Aug-04: My v1.03 of Nicholishen's FIFO_CloseAll_Options.mq4 (Script) fixes a bug so that it properly closes orders while obeying the U.S. FIFO rule. The code is posted here. More details: The script is useful to quickly close ...

Modified, useful MQ4 utilities, indicators, and related tips

Caution! The "Hunt for C" technique has other lower alternatives that might be considered just as valid as the one I posted. The one already shown plus 5 others here each have decent resonance along their respective MedianLines, and therefore price ...

EUR/CHF

Given the Andrews PF as shown, the current low ("pt C", or "pt 3") is nearly at a perfect point of resonance along the MedianLine (ML). The current low of 1.07215 has fairly good resonance already at the red oval and blue circle. It's close at the ...
