Nice .

If you like, you can add this code snippet to OnInit() function, to automatically switch to line chart and change line settings to none.

Inserted Code
 
   ChartSetInteger(0,CHART_MODE,CHART_LINE);
   ChartSetInteger(0,CHART_COLOR_CHART_LINE,clrNONE);

I thought the code seemed familiar here is the original indicator coded by mladen before it was altered and renamed.

Hi,
would any of you be so kind help me out? where can ask someone with skills to add and alert to an old indi i have?

for me, it's impossible, any kind of code is for cientists...

it would be a simple alert when current bar is "painting" in different color than previous (closed). daily tf.

i would apreciate if you can direct me to rigth person/forum.

Thanks is advance. Gob Bless You All.

Is it possible to have an option in the indicator that will fill the whole area like my screenshot below? It looks a lot nicer this way. :-)

This is awesome! Exactly what I needed.

Still 1 problem. This is off by 1 candle. It is starting the block 1 candle early and not marking the last candle. Here is the screenshot that shows overlay of W1 on a H4 chart.

I only altered an existing indicator that was not originally coded by me assuming that it was working correctly. Everything below Daily appears to be working I can not promise anything as I am very busy at the present time but will see if I can come up with a fix or another indicator or perhaps contact the original coder and see if he can fix it?.

Thank you so much for all your help! I will wait for this to be fixed. I understand you can't promise and that is OK.
FYI: I just noticed that even Daily is working fine.

Nice work, Thanks for this new creation. Can you please add additional timeframes to this indicator? I have being looking for indicators that will display bigger timeframes like ( 4month, 6months, 12months and 1year candles). Thanks once again

Can we have an extra parameter added that is titled History please. meaning whatever number is entered that is the amount of historical bars it will display on the chart except for zero which will display all candles on chart, I would like to limit the number of candles so my chart stays reasonably clean, thanks again,

Hi cja,

Nice indicator. Working perfect for 24/7 session.
However, in case of 24/5 session the monday Daily Candle is limited to the first opening bar.
So monday's Candles are not fully printed.

Maybe you can add a 24/5 or 24/7 session option ?
