Thank you! One more question, if I implement it like this will it also work with backtesting ? or does it have only the current week news data?

Kind regards,

Is it possible to display the "Actual" value with colour of "Actual" directly from forexfactory calender to mt4 chart using "FFCal" Indicator?

If yes, can someone please tell how to do it and post the latest "FFCal" indicator file to download.

If no, can someone please add the feature to "FFCal" so that it will display the "Actual" along with the "colour" of the actual as soon as the "Forexfactory" calender updates it in the website?

The basic idea is to quickly enter "BUY" or "SELL" instant orders by looking into the "Colour" of the "Actual" directly on Mt4 screen instead of looking into the "Forexfactory website" which will take time and so that as soon as the news releases, the mt4 should display the "Actual" value along with the "Colour". Can someone please add this to the "FFCal" indicator?

{quote} Hey Ramaparasu and everyone, I am using the "ffcal_net" indicator with an EA I am developing. Itīs working fine with the iCustom to read those infos. Although, now I would like to read the CURRENCY of the next event. Could tell me which code lines should I add on the .mq4? Tks in advance for your help.

Hi, bmgsoares

How come the "iCustom" is not working when I use it to call "ffcal_net" ?

I tried to code as underneath, but nothing shows up.



// int minutesSincePrevEvent =
// iCustom(NULL, 0, "FFCal", true, true, false, true, true, 1, 0);
//
// int minutesUntilNextEvent =
// iCustom(NULL, 0, "FFCal", true, true, false, true, true, 1, 1);
//
// // Use this call to get ONLY impact of previous event
// int impactOfPrevEvent =
// iCustom(NULL, 0, "FFCal", true, true, false, true, true, 2, 0);
//
// // Use this call to get ONLY impact of nexy event
// int impactOfNextEvent =
// iCustom(NULL, 0, "FFCal", true, true, false, true, true, 2, 1);


Thanks

Of course if its possible pay 18K/month for Economic data from
Thomson Reuters

ECONOMIC DATA WITH GLOBAL COVERAGE
Economic data
Unrivaled, deep and consistent global economic data coverage, delivered with critical timeliness to power your decision-making.

just to be able to run:

Inserted Code
 
// # this code will compile and execute on MQL4 & 5, NinjaScript, NinjaTrader 7 & 8, cAlgo, ACSIL SierraChart
// https://github.com/LinkersX
 
Code:
 
#include<LinkersX.h>
 
econews1.updateActual(actualValueSupliedByThomsonReutersFor18K);
 
// which will create e.actual_updated event;
// so the actual trading strategy would look like this:
// 1 is the last event, actual gets supplied by Linkers::X by specifying Thomson Reuters Feed
//--
 
if(e.unemployment_claims(1) && e.actual_updated(1) && e.is_news_good(1))

Hi DerkWehler

For some reason, your FFCal.mq4 is not working anymore. The indicator doesn't show table, let alone schedules, just the phrase "No More Events"
Could you please update/fix it for us? Thanks.

That indicator works well.
It's the orginal indicator with required mods in order to run actually.

Hi Jagg, I agree.

That's why I'm a bit upset that it doesn't show the Calendar again in my chart. Your version is twice the size of mine. I was hoping yours could work. Already installed it, but again--as shown below--only the 'No More Events' phrase came up.
