@Cja


You coded this indicator & modified it a while back showing the New custom Line Code, ie, we can have thicker dashed or dotted lines as an option.

The indicator works fine, but for daily open lines only, it could do with a shift hours option to start the open line as per user selection.

The feature of this indicator is to draw the lines to the right hand edge of the chart with price, as well as the new mt4 line code feature.

I dont have the mq4 file, only the ex4 file which you modified previously.

Thanks CJa, One minor glitch, the unique value input should allow a second application of the indicator ?

Doesn't seem to be working. Tried different letters & numbers.

Indicator is perfect otherwise. Thanks.

The issue appears to have been the delete code which was deleting the objects for any extra Daily Open levels v Timeshift indicators loaded onto the chart. The delete code was part of the indicator refresh update process so I had to re-code that to avoid the delete issue while retaining the indicators ability to update for each new candle.

Before you ask this indicator is only for Daily and the code used is not suitable for Weekly or Monthly or any other time frame.

1/ The button can be moved by dragging it with the mouse to any position on the chart.
2/ The indicator has a custom line code which allows Dotted / Dash etc lines in different widths.
3/ The time can be set with any start or end time, to show a 2 hour GMT offset set the start to 02:00 and the end to 02:00 and the Next Day input to 1 and that will show a start / end on the chart of 02:00 to 02:00 the next day when using the default line display.
4/ There are several display options so take the time to carefully look at and try the inputs.
5/ NOTE : The name cannot be changed otherwise the indicator will not work.

This is a drag and drop script which allows you to see either the Open/High/Low/Close or any combination of those levels on the candle it is dropped on.
NOTE : The name cannot be changed otherwise the script will not work

Apologies I just realized that I had not updated the labels in the inputs, all the input labels previously read "High" I have now rectified them to read Open High Low Close. I also have updated the line label code to delete the appropriate price labels if the an Open High Low Close line was not selected.
To the 6 traders who downloaded the previous script please download the update.

Its not something I authored its simply something I must have done a small modification to back in 2006 in fact I really have not idea what its use would be but I have got it to work and basically deleted almost 50% of the code which did nothing as far as I could tell.

Adding a unique number to this type of code is not a simple task however if you use the search feature you should find there are plenty of Session indicators on this Forum that do just what you require.

This indicator seems to be slowing down / freezing the terminal.

Hi,
I tried it and had no issues of that nature. Perhaps there is a code conflict with another indicator.

It's possible, took this indicator off, and the terminal is back to normal.

cja, does your indicator have an OnChartEvent() section?

If 'no', then the following will not help, but...

If 'yes', then please refer to a new thread I created with an indicator to help test for compatibility problems between indicators that use OnChartEvent sections.
See: MT4 slow? Test if your OnChartEvent is compatible with others

In that thread you will find 'P4L_TEST_COMPAT_Enables_chart_events_MOUSE_CREATE_DELETE.mq4' (and .ex4) and instructions to test.

In MT4, chart events are enabled on a *per-chart* basis, not per-indicator. Therefore, another indicator might be enabling more events -- especially CHART_EVENT_MOUSE_MOVE -- that could be very bad performance if your indicator does not properly isolate and use only the events it needs.

I offered suggestions how to improve OnChartEvent so that each is compatible with other indicators.

P.S. cja, you are an experienced programmer so likely you are already aware of all I wrote, but no harm to post just it case it helps.

No OnChartEvent() section on this indicator so its a bit of a mystery. The OnChartEvent() issues are a bit like the indicators that turn up with the ObjectsDeleteAll()
code that deletes everything on a chart. Thanks for the info as it just makes me consider what I do and why I do it a certain way.
