U should probably test it with lower bricks just to test it because now on my pairs is just big trends so it does not take any trades. The last trade went in profit on 23th. Just one though

I have tried thae martingale setting, but did not work good. But i thing that the problem can be solved by installing different MT for each pair.
the results for 7 pip bricks chart was terrible.

Hi guys,
I wanted to share with you the Renko Live Charts EA which I added to version v600.4 the following changes.
First publication was by Tim Welch here, and the fixes came along the way.

Of course you could take it and add to it you current trading EAs, but do notice that this is not a trading EA version, only a renko brick chart creator.

I just felt the need to improve the existing version.
I hope you will find it useful and I would appreciate any comments on my additions.

//| May 14 2018 (TS) (v600.5)
//| - Restored ATR based box size, from [v4.1 Andrea Jan 20 2014] version
//| - Changed RenkoBoxSize and Offset to double, in order to handle more precise box sizes to pippets in supporting 3/5 digit brokers.
//| - Added comments on chart to notify users what should be done [v4.13 Tim Welch Aug 22 2014]
//| - Added TestingMode, which allows to create offline charts in standard MQL4/5 timeframe constants,
//| To use Renko charts in Strategy Tester
//| - Change critical log prints messages to Message Box, for better understanding of the situation
//| - Added automatic opening of the offline chart, and also an easy opening using "click here" on comments area

Hi,

In the source code, there is written somewhere in the beginning of the program: #import "user32.dll"
Is this some piece of code, which is necessary for the program ?
Where is this located and do we really need it ?

Question : What are standard MQL4/5 time frame constants ?

Remark : The automatic opening of the offline chart is a convenient property. Well done.

That's totally wrong 2.5 !!!
Correct Renko box size must be adjusted based on maximum spread if floating following this rule :

RenkoBoxSize = or > Maximum spread

If spread = 600 , Renko box = 600 ex: Cfd , stocks, btc
If RenkoBoxSize = 2.5 , is best to use 5 or 10 is most recommend.

Thanks Riverstar,

Are you a programmer? I will need to fit my answer wether you're a programmer or a trader.

So,
1. Well, from "user32.dll" we take the Windows API function "RegisterWindowMessageW", which helps us emulate ticks when the market is closed, so the chart will be created anyway.
You really do need it, and if you're a programmer, you can simply follow this function and see where I use it.
If you have any further question regarding this subject, please send me a private message in order not to hijack this post and lead it to other directions.

2. standard MQL4/5 time frame constants are metioned here: https://docs.mql4.com/constants/char...num_timeframes.

3. Thanks for the remark!

I did not understand where you got your source from. Could you share the actual source?

I can tell you my humble opinion, I use an ATR (24) method to find the best box size, and then round it up a bit.
Thus I came to box sizes of 10-20 pips for the majors such as EURUSD, GBPUSD, GBPJPY etc...
Spread size at my end is 1-3 pips.
Coming too close to the spread, less than twice the spread will give you still a lot of noise so I don't really see the point in using Renko over other form of charting or indicator.
