There's another one buried on here somewhere just called "cursor" i think. I've been searching for two days online desperate. I'm doing a mini course tomorrow night and the guy doing it said he has one and will send it. I'll update when i can. After searching a few web pages mention hoing into market watch and hiding alot of trading assets to try and speed mt4 up... Another suggests the cntrl + f key is a short cut....hot key. Maybe try hitting that a few times. I even wonder if unplugging my mouse and plugging it back in when mt4 is open... Another...
I believe we are well beyond unplugging the mouse my friend.

I'm reverting all my MT4 copies to the previous version and then blocking MetaQuotes from auto-updating me in the future and turning my life upside down.

Wow!! Thanks so much! It worked!! I copied all my old Templates and Profiles into a folder on my Desktop.

Downloaded the 1170 version...copied old profiles and templates in. .

Added the crosshair and now its as smooth as before. Thank God!! That was a stressful few days.

Is there a place we can download the 1170 version and keep it on our computer so if any further updates come through and knack it up we can just use it.
In case it's ever removed from online...how on earth do you get it again?

Still unsure how to block any updates. Is there a really simple way?

That link I provided has all the previous terminal versions. Just keep a copy handy in case MT4 "updates itself" again... which it will. Changing the security permissions on /MetaQuotes to write protected seems to slow 'em down.

I agree, this was very stressful! I need my weekends to catch up on all my analysis and record keeping projects and I use that global cross-hair constantly. The update happened the moment the weekend began. FML! The lag was just about to make me jump out the window!

Thank you to Nicholishen for creating such a wonderful tool!

I cannot get any text info to appear. When I left click and drag, the whole crosshairs move, and no text.

I have change parameters, colors, versions (and Photize's version, but still no joy), while the MT4 version does allow drag and show the text.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Hi Nicholishen

Thankyou so much, not only brilliant but been very stable.

This has been an amazing EA sure to all of us as really helps with multi time frame analysis and cross pair correlation.

I was hoping you could make an enhancement where when the primary chart crosshair is positioned, all the other charts
would move to that exact candle time so we dont have to scroll back on each chart or pair to find that moment in time.

Think this would supercharge the EA so much appreciate to hear your thoughts on this

thankyou

Hi Gauer,

I've created a synced crosshair for MQL4 that works also in MQL5, just compile it on MQL5 and it works.

Hi Nicholishen
Hope you doing great..
Thank you for the CROSSHAIR INDICATOR. It's awesome.
I would like to know if the WIDTH of the Crosshair line can be changed.
If yes please do help me out on this. I tried but I am not a coder just a beginner.

Regards
Sid

Hi Sidtrading,

Look at the version I've previously linked on Github. You can easily change the width: https://github.com/mt4professional/s...sshair.mq4#L62

Features: MT5 style cross-hair to measure points and number of bars between two coordinates. Unlike MT4/MT5 you can scroll the chart while setting the cross-hair coordinates. Automatically syncs cross-hairs across all open charts with the same symbol. (only one indicator instance necessary) Toggle cross-hairs with stylized button that can be place in any corner of chart. Toggle cross-hairs with a hot-key of choice. Toggle coordinate locking with double-clicks. Set color of cross-hairs to your color of choice. How to use: Save in the indicators folder...
Thank you very much for sharing !!
I've tried it and have been satisfied.
But I have some features request:
1. Styling lines individually (style, color and width for all of lines),
2. Filling with a rectangle inside the lines,
3. Styling font,
Thanks!
