Thanks to everyone for their various inputs. I cannot get it working no matter what I try. A combination of too much effort that's gone into it and apparently being the only one in the known Universe to be unable to make it work has finally made me give up and use a stand alone standard calendar like FF. The world is such a cruel place

It seems that you are using version 1.08. Download version 1.08a. If it doesn't work:

How this indicator works: file https://cdn-nfs.faireconomy.media/ff...r_thisweek.xml is downloaded and saved as NewsCal$CacheFile$0.txt in
Program Files/MetaTrader - yourBroker/MQL4/Files folder. It seems that on some systems for some reasons this file can't be downloaded or saved. What you can do:
- update your mt4 to latest build - 1170
- check permissions of Files folder
- check firewall settings - if some ports are blocked, connection is restricted for programs etc.
- use only one instance of indicator - remove any other similar indicators from charts
If it doesn't work there is possible workaround - you can download file https://cdn-nfs.faireconomy.media/ff...r_thisweek.xml manually and place it in folder Program Files/MetaTrader - yourBroker/MQL4/Files as NewsCal$CacheFile$0.txt. To update this file automatically every x minutes use any other program or script.

Alas I think you are talking about the calendar, not breaking news I think.

Download version 1.08a - NewsCal-v108a.ex4 from page 1 first. If it doesn't work change url - http://cdn-nfs.faireconomy.media/ff_...r_thisweek.xml (don't use https).
As for workaround - don't worry about this message, just save file https://cdn-nfs.faireconomy.media/ff...r_thisweek.xml
from browser as NewsCal$CacheFile$0.txt in MQL4/Files.

Of course you can save it from your browser - save page as NewsCal$CacheFile$0.txt in MQL4/Files
This message doesn't matter.
