The OBJ_CHART object is not supported in MQL4, even though it will compile. It is only supported in MQL5. Unless something changed more recently, this 2016 discussion seems relevant. The code will compile in MQL5, with a tiny change: Either: ...

By "this trick", do you mean adding the "for j" loop as in your earlier example? As I noted, that's not a full solution, because the root problem is caused by incrementing through your "for i" loop. Change the "for i" loop so that it decrements, and ...

V4 attached. Opens a new sub-window (by default). OR, user can swap a couple lines to NOT open new sub-window. DisplayInSpecificWindow = -1 which auto-detects which window to use; OR, the user can pick any specific window. It was dumb that merely ...

Hi Frank, Unfortunately, your edits made the problem -- unwanted tick.wav sound when clicking on any button -- very much worse! ... but I applaud your attempt. Now it's worse because the tick sound occurs when absolutely ANY object is clicked on, ...

Frank, CJA did a fix by removing the 3 lines related to the 'PlaySound' of the "tick.wav" file. (Changing the Input variable 'soundBT' value to blank also works). However, the underlying bigger concern is that THIS indicator somehow interacts with ...

(Post #1 will always have my latest official version) In another thread, a user asked about a bug in 'Box Fibo extra load.mq4', which itself is a modified version of Hanover's original BoxFibo.mq4 (2009). The specific bug was a trivial fix, however, ...

A tip for posters to this forum: When you want help, don't give misleading posts that ask for help with an indicator, yet point to a completely different and unrelated post. For example: The picture -- only if one looks very carefully -- shows ...
- MT4 slow? Test if your OnChartEvent is compatible with others
The latest indicators are making use of more Chart events than before. Most old indicators do not ...

Here you go. I have coded the button using better (IMO) OnChartEvent() code which is *far* more efficient that many other Button implementations. It processes the only event && object name that matters; all others are ignored. I recommend to other ...

Mostly out of curiosity, I did a conversion of the .mq4 to .mq5 for this indicator, plus most all of Hanover's library files too, actually. The manual steps to eliminate all errors and warnings, and to see it "work" were substantial, but I think it ...

I decided to jump in and fully convert a MT4 file of interest to me to MT5, mainly to see how much work it takes, and to test the converter tools in post#1. Overall, the converter helped, but it's very limited. It takes someone familiar with coding ...

You didn't give a full example, but here are several things I notice: The Time1 field is 0, so the object is getting created at time=1970.01.01, far to the left of all the bars on the chart The Price1 field is the value of RSI, which is a range ...

Hi Tankk, Most of your points are differences of style and preferences; I agree with some of the suggestions, but to each his own. With respect to start vs. OnCalculate, I myself don't mind using either one, but jeanlouis' comment about pre-600 ...

Hi Tankk, Regarding my 'CustomCandles - any tmf v3 BT', what you called "your code" was not really mine at all, since all I did was take what had been written (with inefficient button code added) and I made only the button code better. I would never ...

Hi tah, This is regarding your reply to my post: The above was your only response I saw to my post here: Unfortunately there has been no update that resolves the main problem that the PVSRA tool can easily hang MT4 when used in combination with any ...

Including a picture would help to better understand your point and your request, because referencing the SyncCursor indicator -- even if useful for other purposes -- does nothing to actually increase the font-size of anything. The price scale font ...

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 ...

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). ...

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 ...
