Regarding #1: The "P4L PeriodCon" program has only to do with generating offline charts with either non-standard timeframes and/or timeshifted charts. I'm certain there are MA cross alert programs out there which either already work on offline ...

Improved multi-timeframe/offset/chart period converter, P4L PeriodCon.mq4

You can *probably* get #SpudFibo and AutoPivotIndicator_ver5 to work as well by generating some additional offline timeframes with the same +1H timeshift. (I didn't try this but a quick glance at the code gives me some confidence it will work). This ...

Improved multi-timeframe/offset/chart period converter, P4L PeriodCon.mq4

Lavenham, It's working fine for me, so it must be a misunderstanding how to use it. Perhaps you're expecting the *source* chart (to which you add the two PeriodCon's) to change, and that's not how it works. Rather, the source M5 chart (or you could ...

Improved multi-timeframe/offset/chart period converter, P4L PeriodCon.mq4

Hi Kapital, When I reproduced your USDCHF H1 chart on my MBT feed, it doesn't agree, and I think the problem is *my* feed doesn't give a legitimate point-3 low because it occurred at NY 17:00 (ET), which is rollover time. MBT shuts down every day ...

Improved multi-timeframe/offset/chart period converter, P4L PeriodCon.mq4

It's not "wrong", rather it's just not designed to slice up the time periods using a "trading" week. It uses a calendar method. That said, how useful is a "D4" chart regardless of how you slice it? I can see it would probably be better if it were 4 ...

New very cool CandleTime and session time Clock indicators

Extended warning lines do vibrate — I remember Tim Morge saying that he's observed pitchforks vibrating out as far as the 9th Warning line or even farther. It is a bit hard to keep track of such things, but here is a recent example I noticed ...

You're description of the problem doesn't quite match how this script works, but there is an easy solution for you. To clarify, when you add an indicator or an EA to a chart, it stays connected to the chart and you can remove it if desired. It so ...

Improved OrderHistory mq4 script to display trade history on charts

All trades are stored on the brokers' SERVER, not your local machine. You can see all history trades for whatever is your active account. If you change accounts (such as when a demo account expires so you open a new one), then all the trades on the ...

MT4 navigational tips and techniques

You didn't specify your OS but almost certainly you are using Vista or Win7, in which case your USER-created files are going into a special folder that is for your use only (as opposed to another user on your same machine). Vista and Win7 changed ...

MT4 navigational tips and techniques

In a word, "Yes", you can use a triple-keystroke to toggle Auto-Scroll, and with extra hardware, it could be a single keystroke. A simple sequence of keys can toggle the Chart Autoscroll (Actually, a huge number of commands can be accessed with this ...

MT4 navigational tips and techniques

MBT doesn't accept live accounts from your part of Canada, but can't you still get a demo account going? At least for analysis if not trading? To research various platforms, this link may help but the data is not always accurate on some details, and ...

If FXTrade has data "hiding", meaning hide weekend bars, the question is does it roll forward the ticks or not? If yes (which is perhaps reasonable), then it makes perfect sense to see a new bar show up at any time on the weekend, BUT, you shouldn't ...

What capability does the other Oanda platform have? Is it a simple checkbox to hide certain bars? (If so, hide which bars?). Or can you specify a range of hours that you want it to hide? Also, what does the tool do with the hidden bar data... does ...

Oanda, and about customizing bars and GMT offset. — I would be pleasantly surprised if they figure out how to solve the problem with MT4. MT4 is very limited in what it can do to manage the bars on a chart. It can't shift the broker time ...

I'm sure plenty of people like me appreciate your posts (and others) without commenting a lot so as not to clutter the thread. But now I have a question to ask you... I'm really glad you mentioned Oanda has a beta MT4 now. I like the feed and am ...
