Hello to everybody and Merry Christmas!I hope to find people who still using xSuperTrend indicator. What is xSuperTrend Candles supposed to do? Looks like it does nothing while being attached to the chart.

{quote} Look fine to me, have you worked it out yet? {image}
Yep, turned out the indi doesn't work when "Chart on foreground" is on. Thanks for the tip with the screenshot.

How to fix this bug {image}
It should work anyway if you installed all the indicators to the correct folder. Metaquotes changed the file structure so the indicator check does not work. Turn off dll imports for the indicator and you will not get that error msg.
Here's a SuperTrend alerter. User can't change line style. Visually, I use Xaphod's xSuperTrend, and change the alerter to no color. Original download souce: https://www.marketcalls.in/metatrade...up-alerts.html
Also, added (hack 'n' paste) xSuperTrend-Candles scalable.mq4, now candles scale automatically to zoom levels. Tried adding alerts but didn't work on this indictor, however it's only commented out maybe someone shall make it work.
Same as above, except wicks scale same size as candle bodies, xSuperTrend-Candles scalable wicks.mq4

This is a repair to the indicator xSuperTrend on the first post that as of - 26-Aug-2019 - was not working.
Repairs - code updated to new code - #property strict - OnCalculate - bugs cleared - out of range fault cleared.
The default setting was 10-1.7 and the below chart illustrates this setting on GU London Breakout
GU - M5: All times London Summer Time - First vertical pink line = 06:00 & second = 08:00. 
The indicator setting on the below GU chart is 10-3.0 and appears to be the more popular default value. 
Any preferred default settings can easily be hard coded -
Search internet - video - "How to edit MQL4 code" and edit the below code - the value 10 normally remains the same - the 3.0 is normally change to preferred value - any number of hard coded permutations can be saved (and named accordingly) for ease and speed of use.
Tip: All edited code will only become effective if compiled with 0 errors (can get away with warnings but not errors). If after a 0 error compile the code has not become effective while the indicator is on the chart - remove indicator from chart - re-compile with the green (debug) button second to the right of the compile button - a debug test chart should open and the indicator should appear on the chart - click the red stop button - the debug chart will disappear - re-load the indicator on chart for testing, review & use.
Other preferred settings for hard code editing
colors - https://docs.mql4.com/constants/obje...ants/webcolors
styles - https://docs.mql4.com/constants/indi...num_line_style
properties - https://docs.mql4.com/basis/preprosessor/compilation
Possible use as filter in a larger system
Trending: 10 x 3.0 
Range-bound: 10 x 2.0
