That actually helps and probably explains why its not drawing NEW lines for the first example of 'objName' I posted. That is different than the other platform I used to write scripts for, I thought this one would be the same, but apparently not. ...

How do strings work in graphical objects?

Got the VWAP(or XWAP) working. Still have quite a few things to add, like the various 'Typical Price' modes. Right now it's all based on Close price, but I'll add a Median, HLC/3, OHLC/4 for both vWap and PvP. Also need to add the other SDs for the ...

Possible to make an indie calculate when object is moved?

For anyone that cares to know... I had a similar issue with mobile verification and discord. I contacted them about it and they WILL NOT help you with this issue. I even offered to send them a photo ID to prove I am the one using the account, and ...

High Level Accuracy Method With Little To NO Draw-down

I looked around(google) and couldn't find it, but it seems like there is no obvious way to do code folding in metaeditor. Is it possible to fold code away so it takes up less space? Or is the only solutio to use an alternate editor? I've got vsCode, ...

New to coding MT4, a few question about converting my indie

I think I get what you're saying here. I was under the impression that using iBarShift() would always do like a left-scan to find the nearest D1 open time? But I guess it just looks for the CLOSEST D1 open, whether that be left OR right? I think ...

New to coding MT4, a few question about converting my indie

New to coding MT4, a few question about converting my indie

New to coding MT4, a few question about converting my indie

Ignore all of that. I see the problem is incorrect use of the iTime function. I still haven't figure out exactly how it works, but the lines weren't actually being placed on my chart, they were just left over objects when I switched back from a ...

New to coding MT4, a few question about converting my indie

Weird platform issue I'm noticing, and is slowing down my debugging a bit... Just wondering what it is that makes the platform behave this way? First thing I'm doing right now, is just making sure I can delineate various starts of time, I.e., start ...

New to coding MT4, a few question about converting my indie

Ayyyyyyeeeee, I managed to figure this one out, its a pretty simple indicator that does what I want for now. Its probably a bit too specific to be of any use to anyone.

I am interested in a scanner. Particularly a simple one that I can update myself as the need arises. I have been attempting to learn mql4 recently, and am not sure how to accomplish this particular indie. For now, I'd like something based on a ...
