File --> Open Data Folder. Then MQL4 --> Indicators. Drop the file in there. Restart MT4. You should see the indicator appear in the indicator list within the navigator window. Then drag the indicator onto the chart.

Should I only use this indicator on one chart? I created a template that the calendar is included on and using it on multiple pairs. I'm noticing that my platform slows down. I also keep getting an error message "failed to download". Does anyone know what that is?

Also what is the blank.mq4 used for in post #1?
Don't mind me....just honing in on my craft :-)

Hi PTiTM

it does not like being run on multiple open charts at the same time, it causes the issues you are experiencing.

not used the blank mq4 but guessing it is a blank chart template to put the calendar on.

regards

Phil.

Just downloaded and started using your News Brk Indy. It will be nice for it to have an alert/ alarm once there is new breaking new and if the clock on it does not depend on tick. Thanks.

Hi,

Very nice indicator, thank you for developing it euclid.
Only thing is the newsbreak twitter source. The Trumpy tweets are easy to distinguish from the others.
The writer/source of the other tweets are harder to find on the web. Is there a list available of twitter pages that are used for the newsbreak?

thank you.

NewsCAl showing connection errors. Verticals lines appear only after the candles so late alert. Had to take it off but I really like it.

Close your platform ... then right click on the terminal.exe (or its shortcut) > Properties > Compatibility tab > Check "ovveride high DPI" and select it to "system". Apply ... Then restart your platform.

It generally solves the display issue.

Thanks FerruFx. Yes it does fix by doing this trick using DPI Overrides. But i like my chart in "Real" 4K DPI view instead make my MT4 platform DPI to match the compatibility. See attachment to compare. Thanks in advance by the way.

It shoudn't affect the chart appearance. Did you select "system" in the "performed by" menu ?

For me a correct implementation should take into account the current DPI.

Inserted Code
int screenDPI = TerminalInfoInteger(TERMINAL_SCREEN_DPI);
double dpiFactor = screenDPI > 96 ?  screenDPI / 96.0 : 1.0;

I always work internal with that dpiFactor instead the user parameters. Maybe it will work when fontSize is multiplied with that factor. I have not tested it yet, because i'm alsways calculate the fontSize from the bounds of the object i have to paint.
Maybe it's the missing piece to avoid changes in system properties only for painting issues.
