I'm using an indicator that seems to lag as far as updating goes and sometimes needs a refresh if it's changed.

Is there an indicator that can be added to mt4 to auto refresh the charts every x amount of time often?

Unless you also have the source files (*.mq4) with your indicator, you won't be able to make the wanted change.

If you have the source code, then you should have a look inside the main function...

Somewhere around the first lines, there should be the instanciation of a variable that will be used as a delimiter (so that you don't re-compute the whole chart for each new candle). You should try to change the formula, maybe just increasing(or reducing) the limit by just 1, and then check if it's ok.

It is also possible that you are using a indicator that does repaint past details (values, slope, crosses, ...), in which case, there will be no solution, unless you make the indicator lag enough so that when the true event appear, it won't go away. The main problem with this method would be the lagging part...

You choose, lag or repaint

That being said, i hope for you that you will be able to solve this problem.

Here is a freeware tool that sends "simulated ticks" to your mt4 that will help to refresh the chart.

I have this AutoRefresh Indicator but I want to make it also disable AutoTrading before refreshing the chart. The function is to make the indicator or EA Automatically disable AutoTrading every X minutes and then Auto Refreshes All Open Charts and then finally enable AutoTrading again after X minutes of refresh. Can anybody add this features to this indicator. Thank you.


AutoDisableAutoTrading = true
AutoDisableAutoTradingAfterMinutes = 60 minutes
AutoRefreshAllChartsAfterDisableAutoTrading = true
EnableAutoTradingAfterRefreshMinutes = 2 minutes

Is there anybody who can do it? I would really appreciate it and it would also help others who have very good repainting indicators coded into EAs like FX_FISH_2MA. Thank you.

Hi, just use this indicator to refresh your chart. #Post 10

Use (if you on VPS) 86400sec.
Use (without VPS) example 3600sec (every hour)
Use (without VPS) example 30sec at the end of the day.

I hope it helps...
