Do you find the box changes if I drew the box and come back down the time frame ?

Thanks

I am not really sure of the relevance of the information box but, is there any way to turn it off, in the code?
If I delete the code, will it just mess up the indicator.

I like to have as much screen space as possible.

Thanks in advance.
I can add a true or false user input to determine whether the info' is displayed or not. It will be straightforward for you to edit the default state to false in the code then.

Can you post a couple of screenshots of before and after and note the time values of the left and right box markers for me. I would like to resolve this issue one way or another....

Incidentally, I am not experiencing the box shift as Menomo is.

I have also attached an updated version of the indi' that allows you to switch off the info box. I think that Bemac wanted to have a timestamp on his charts and I added other info', such as the email alert status, version etc. If you want to change the code so that the info is not shown by default, then...

Not sure what you mean when you say, "If you want to see what is going on, on the hourly",. The horizontal lines it projects on the daily will be exactly the same on the hourly so, there is no need to do anything.
Hope this helps.
On the box shifting score, make sure you have this function turned off when you place the box wherever you want.

Not sure if this is a bug or not though.

On the daily and H4 tf we can see the diagonals.
However, switching to H1 does not display them.

The horizontal lines are the exact same pip value, though.

Here is another one for Menomo

Basically, I think your question about how to choose the area is the most difficult aspect of using ICCE.

I used to drive myself mad, constantly asking myself, "How can we choose this area and base trades off the projected areas if price sometimes, breaks through them and sometimes gets rejected by them?".

I remember Bill saying that "ICCE is not 100 percent mechanical and, an art in finding these areas is necessary". Like art is not completely mathematical but also involves some calculations and geometrical ratios, to create a masterpiece.

The fact is, all trading is like that, just like life, nothing is 100 % certain, apart from death.

Sometimes price will penetrate even the strongest of PPZ, sometimes it will get rejected, sometimes it will consolidate, but one thing is for sure, it will breakout of any consolidation, given time.

I think it was Swami who mentioned to look for a consolidation box, that a TL dissects, right through the middle.

I am leaning more towards using ICCE to sort of show me how price, wraps price itself up in boundaries, and waiting for price to show us what it is really going to do, via PA.


Hope this helps.

It may not be a bug at all, it could possibly some conflict with one of the indicators on my chart.

This pair does not display the anomaly

Even in this last chart I put up ,

When i drew the box , I wanted to go back to indicator list and edit then I came back to chart and chart shifted again !!! I mean the box

So I got no idea why it s doing that

Thanks

V
I am not sure why this is happening, but I will keep digging and see if I can get to the bottom of the issue.

I set up my chart with similar values on the weekly....

...then dropped down to the daily without a problem...

....however, when I dropped to 4hr, the box was present, but the diagonals did not display I did manage to get them to display by opening up the indicators user input menu. I didn't change any settings in the menu, I just opened it and then closed it again - this calls the init function within the code, which suggests that there is an issue here....But, once this has been done once the diagonals display when going up and down timeframes, without using the above workaround. So, perhaps it is to do with the chart history

Anyway, I'll look into it and post up a new version once I have resolved the issue. In the meantime, try the workaround and let me know if it works on your charts....

Apologize didnt look at your post cahrt properly about the box , or shall i say oversaw it due to my understanding that we only tick this box when we wanat delete the indicator off the chart.

Now I managed to come down to 4 hourly time frame from this spot but any lower than that indicator does not show the diagonals only the box ...

thanks again ...

regards

V
Funny how you beat me to post by millisecond ))

Yes as I just mentioned I can not see the diagonals in my hourly chart . I am trying this on IBFX demo .

And absolutely , we can get around the problem by putting a rectangle on the box than go to 4 hourly and put the indicator than go back to lower time frames I suppose , i ll try it now

Thanks heaps

This is the point where you should open the indicators user input menu - don't change any settings - then close the menu. If the fix works on your system, then the diagonals should now appear...

Yesss.. Seems like all sorted now. When the box is lets say set on 40 Diagonals , and on weekly , if you wana go down to hourly TF , i went box to indicator box edit and put the diagonals upto 200 , bingo !!! if that makes sense...

Thanking you again

Have a nice week

Ahhh...I have been using the indi' for so long that I forgot to even mention that option. But yes, if the box is quite far over to the left, then you will need to change the default value for the number of diagonals. Sorry - I should have included that in one of the videos....
