By the way, I too tried to figure out how to move the new displayPrior feature over to the top-right corner but it's a big hassle. It would be nice if the program would give a location for the bar[0] in terms of pixels (xDistance) but I couldn't ...

My P4L Plot_News.mq4 v3 had errors... new v4 attached. — Hi David, I hate programming after-hours and rushing through changes. I'm much more prone to make mistakes, and my v3 version of P4L Plot_News.mq4 contains a few. Recall that I re-copied ...

Hi David, You have my permission to take my version, rename it, change it as you like, etc. I don't know that a bunch more enhancements will be requested or even needed at this point, but it does make sense to have one official version if at all ...

New P4L Plot_News.mq4 (v3) — Hi David, I decided to redo my changes to your most recent version, but as my own was sufficient for my needs, there wasn't much motivation to re-write it. However, in hopes that you will take the combined version ...

Prior to Aug 15 or so, EJ and UJ were moving opposite for a time because EU was making such big moves down. Rather than being opposite (of late), EJ and UJ still do follow each other, as the Daily charts show, but there are some relative differences ...

While I said FFcal could be added to an EA to make it aware of upcoming news, I haven't written any EA's. However, the clue as to how to do it would be from reviewing Alert_News.mq4, which David provides in the zip file. Every tick, the program ...

You are correct if all you do is ObjectDelete(objName). However, if you ObjectCreate(newName) where newName is alphabetically earlier than the object you're processing, you have the same issue which is that you changed what ObjectName(i) refers to. ...

While I'm thinking of it, I'd like to comment on previous requests to incorporate this tool into EA's to trade the news. David made the excellent point that you can't really use this tool to get up-to-the-second news results. The ForexFactory ...

New P4L Plot_News.mq4 to improve arrow display — Hi David, all, David is providing a really great tool and service to all of us, and for that I thank him. I use his Plot_News indicator on my M1 chart (and others) to see the news arrows. ...

"Official" definitions of "Schiff" vs. "Modified Schiff" variations — I know that auxesis already saw the following post, but to set the record straight in this thread, here's a response from Greg Fisher posted on ...

Not so fast... I figured I was right... but now am not certain whether to fight the already significant momentum in the market (and software tools) that use the wrong labelling. I might go with the flow and switch over to your definitions, or ...

Hi auxesis, I posted a question on Tim Morge's forum, so we'll see if he gives a definitive answer. I actually think he's going to agree with you but I'm not sure. It's true that most people agree with your definitions as well, including some of the ...

Hey auxesis, Nice charts. However, I believe you have swapped the definitions of "Schiff" and "Modified Schiff". The "Schiff" is 50% of Price only. The "MS" is 50% of both Time and Price from Point 1 to Point 2. Please see my last post for ...

David, please update Post#1 about FireFox — Hi David (hanover), Since this problem with IE improperly downloading the zip file comes up so often for people, can you please update Post #1 in the Installation section? May I suggest something ...

This has happened to a lot of us. The easy solution is to use Firefox (or maybe Opera) instead of Internet Explorer to download the zip file. There's something about either IE or the way the zip file is made or something about the FF server... which ...

Hey southernmind, I remember you posted some great charts awhile back... hope you do so once again. To answer your question and to (possibly) clear up all the confusion about which is a "Schiff" vs. a "Modified Schiff" vs. what I'm going to call the ...

Hi David, It's been a while since I last posted. I hope all is well with you. Like the last two posters, there seems to be a recent glitch. My last dot displayed may have a clue in that the description contains an unusual character, "&" or "amp;". ...

Hi Parlenk, Thanks for the link. Turns out your eBook is the same as what birdt referred to (but birdt's filename had truncated the .pdf filetype). Kent

Thanks Blackeagle for that simple 3-pager. I was way off base when I mentioned Hagopian earlier but this reminds me of what that rule actually is. Referring back to my earlier post, I draw tons of sliding parallels. I would draw formal Warning lines ...
