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?

Doesn't work in backtest ...only current week's events.

I used this sample call, but it doesn't work in my EA.

{quote} Hey Ramaparasu and everyone, I am using the "ffcal_net" indicator with an EA I am developing. It´s 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

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.

Thanks, but your indi caused my MT4 to hang when online and nothing showed up at the chart. So had to remove it.
Do you have another working news calendar indi you could share, Sir?

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.
