hi ..
i don't know if this is the case, but maybe it has something to do with these settings.

for example, my account server is GMT + 2, so the week starts Monday at 00:00, and so I enter the values 1, 1, (1 corresponds to Monday) and 00:00 hours, as start, until 01:00 am, (I chose only one hour for the box), (note that you have to enter the hours as xx:xx, with all four digits) and doing so, in my case, works well, as you can see.

is this the problem, like the digits in the hours or ...?

(edit)
i made some changes in the presentation, to remove all those texts, and in this case, I considered the Box_EntryBuffer = 0 (the entry is = high/low of the considered period 00.00 to 01:00 hours, without with 0 pip margin)

don't know if this help's .. let me know if you can make it work, or not

have a nice day (:

Good stuff. I didn't find a need for all the text either. Thank you again for the work you have put in to cleaning this up.

What kind of system do you use ? Naked charts ? MA's ? I have been trying to combine Vol Profile and MA's. I think breakout boxes will fit into the equation nicely. I try to keep a naked daily chart for initial analysis though.

my trading method is a little bit a mix of some things

the main thing i do is measuring the swings, impulses and retracements, to get levels... i also use the market profile method used, for example, in this thread https://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=617762 , by Dutchy daxy, to take a look at the levels, and the concept of dkrock in this thread https://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=481007

and the indicator.. is working fine?

Oh yeah. Everything is working much better now. I will have to check out those threads.

Measuring swings is probably a key element that I have been meaning to add but sadly have not used the technique as of yet.

Been messing around with the SNS box indicator. Trying to come up with a fairly simple method to help confirm trades. It is important to note that all pairs have there own specific starting times that make the tool work properly.
