I modified and created mql5 version of Buttons indicator, which I posted in 2017. I don't know, who is the original author.

Features:
1. Timeframe and Symbol buttons,
2. Any window/subwindow and corner,
3. Different windows/corners for Timeframes and Symbols,
4. Optional On/Off button,
5. Can get Symbols from Market Watch,
6. Supports Symbol prefix,
7. Supports Symbol suffix.

If you want to create a new empty subwindow for buttons, you can use "New SubWindow" indicator.

why keep symbols u dont use in the market watch?

Personally think using market watch is better than having people write a list of all symbols they need everytime ..

How could I not come up with this! I can just delete symbols I don't need from MW.

Thank you!

Hi there! Anybody has an indicator for quick charts changing? I found this one https://www.mql5.com/en/market/produ...07#description , but it just takes everything from the Market Watch, no good: {image} The case when overdoing things make them worse.
That became a "product" on the market?
Strange world ...

What do you mean? Explicit bugs?

Btw, do you know any alternative?

Because you could not take time to read the description?

The list of available symbols is taken from the Market Watch.

It takes a lot for me to IGNORE you, but you can try.

For MT5, not MT4. Need .mq5 and .ex5 files.

Thank you for sharing them.

Symbol changer_by_Palpite is completely unadjustable, right?

Symbol changer - limited 1.1 uses Symbols that were hard written in .mq5 only? Could you share .mq5 file so I could change Symbols and remove unnecessary for me timeframes?

I use second and its same than mt4. I only adapted API calls but code and limitations are same. And symbols are adjustable using option in dialog

Seems I removed it. I made very long time ago. Then it cant do anything because i dont have the code. It was an on fly conversion

My understanding is that in post 1 you said "no good" due to it displaying ALL the symbols from Marketwatch.

Then you asked why you couldn't find the solution, eg. delete symbols not needed in the Marketwatch

Now you say you know everything, so please don't start thread for nothing where people only just trying to HELP you

Have a nice day

All wrong.

Post 1 also says I knew the indi gets ALL symbols from the MW.

"Then you asked why you couldn't find the solution" --- Where did I ask that? Link pls. What solution? Don't make things up. I was looking for an indicator which allows manual input for symbols.

Take one more look:

And then I was informed I could just delete unnecessary symbols, I just didn't guess it myself.

Got it now?

"Now you say you know everything" --- where did I say that? Link pls, otherwise its not true and you can be called a liar.
