{quote} Hi, Download zip and install everything to its relevant folder. Do not use the template,as that may be giving you issues,just open a single chart and add the indicator fxm_diff3 ,then load the set file FxMadness has provided. Then follow the instructions in the 1st post to generate an offline chart,open off line chart but do not use template. Load the indicator fxmfibo 1st,then add the ea fxm-ttm You may need to change colour of the charts to black for best viewing. try that and see how you go.
Thanks for replying but you are not really helping because you did not read my post very carefully.

The indicator FXM_Diff3 does not load on my chart regardless of how I try to apply it. I tried both loading the indicator itself and loading the setfile before clicking OK and tried loading it using the template on different charts but the indicator menu just disappears and then the indicator is not on the chart. I also created the BDM subfolder but it did not make a difference.

What looks like the indicator on the screenshot are simply objects which do not update which appear after loading the template. The point of the screenshot was to show the journal entries that show the indicator being loaded to the chart and then instantly removed.

{quote} Have you pressed LCK, the BSK and then clicked on the filename after 'Locked'. That writes a file to disk, you then need to load an offiline chart by going File -> Open Offline and then apply the template to the newly opened window
Thanks for replying but you are not really helping because you did not read my post very carefully.

The indicator is not present at the chart hence the LCK button on the chart is only graphics without function. Of course I tried pressing the button before I figured out that the indicator was not actually on the chart. I am not a noob who does not know how to open an offline chart.

Sorry if I come off as ungrateful or salty here but it frustrating to receive answers which does not address my question in relation to the information provided in my initial post

Can anyone please advice how to make the indicator FXM_Diff work properly on my chart? My broker does not have one of the standard 28 pairs (NZDCAD) however I have tried the indicator with different brokers but the problem persists

Have you installed the SDSMain.dll file into the library? Without installing the .dll file the indicator will not work.

Your setup is not working correctly as you have no pairs in the ea so it will not trade. Check your expert journal, its probably showing an error.
The ea should list all locked pairs used to build the chart.
Try building again when market open as im having the same issue but only last thing in the eve.It builds ok during the day.

Fxmadness is going to address the issue at some point.

Yes you are correct, I got an error 5004 in the experts log. I've removed and restarted everything, but still seems to look the same. Now I'm confused as I've followed all the steps that FxMadness has said in post 1.

EDIT: So after restarting as according to post 1, I do see the offline chart has changed but still not showing any pairs and still showing error 5004 in the experts log. I have downloaded the zip file so I'm sure I'm using the correct files.

That is an older version you have on Fxpro.

That is the latest MT4, so yes.

What i meant to say to imdb is that is has installed an older version of the FXM_Diff3 indicator without buttons.

It's same version the one I just downloaded. Is there a newer one then the post on page 1? I just copied from 1 MetaTrader folder to the other one, it works on the demo FX Open, but won't open on FX Pro.

Never mind, it was older version. In your zip you have 2 version, 1 in root which is dated July 14th and new one in indicators. So I must of copied the root files.

Got all the way to offline chart, applied the template to it. There are no errors in the Experts log. However the pairs in the offline chart do not match the DIFF template.

Is it because the market is closed and chart is not updating?

That is due to the difference in day 4 and 5.
One is server time and the other due to a bug in MT4 local time.

As i do not have a solution for the bug yet i will have to make them both local time.

Oh oh, damn bugs! Anyway to simply set the basketname by hand instead of relying on some variable you can pull in MQL?

Ah I think I know whats going on.

Server time stops when market closes, hence it's day 4 until it re-opens. So if you attempt to load this prior to market opening, the basket name will be messed up, so you can only start this process right after re-opening.
