I keep getting error messages when compiling on mql5, I don't know what I'm doing wrong as I have little knowledge about coding. Here are my codes
// Property Parameters
#property script_show_inputs // Ensures input parameters are shown in the script properties
input int LookbackDays = 90; // Number of days to look back
input color RectangleColor = clrBlue; // Color of the rectangles
input int RectangleStyle = STYLE_SOLID; // Style of the rectangle's border
input int RectangleWidth = 2; // Width of the rectangle's border
void OnTick()
{
int days = LookbackDays; // Use input parameter for the number of days
for (int i = 0; i < days; i++)
{
datetime date = iTime(Symbol(), PERIOD_D1, i); // Get the time of the ith bar on the D1 timeframe
MqlDateTime dateStruct;
TimeToStruct(date, dateStruct);

int dayOfWeek = dateStruct.day_of_week;
if (dayOfWeek == 1) // 1 = Monday
{
int weekStart = iBarShift(Symbol(), PERIOD_D1, date);
double openPrice = iOpen(Symbol(), PERIOD_D1, weekStart);
datetime fridayTime = iTime(Symbol(), PERIOD_D1, weekStart + 4);

// Create the rectangle with a unique name based on the loop index
string rectName = "WeeklyBox_" + IntegerToString(i);
ObjectCreate(0, rectName, OBJ_RECTANGLE, 0, iTime(Symbol(), PERIOD_D1, weekStart), openPrice, fridayTime, openPrice);

if (ObjectFind(0, rectName) != INVALID_HANDLE)
{
// Set properties using the input parameters
ObjectSetInteger(0, rectName, OBJPROP_COLOR, RectangleColor);
ObjectSetInteger(0, rectName, OBJPROP_STYLE, RectangleStyle);
ObjectSetInteger(0, rectName, OBJPROP_WIDTH, RectangleWidth);
}
}
}
}


May you please correct me where I'm getting it wrong. I have tried declaring the Time

What are you compiling? You want MT5 version?

https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/...4#post14164564

Or the best MT4 version 2 with On / Off Button?

https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/...8#post14338428

No need to compile anything.

Got it Thank you Sir now I'm stuck on settings to meet the way I want it


I got the setting right now thanx you.

The only problem I'mcurrently facing and I would like assistance from as as follows.

I adjusted the timeframe and visibility to bigger time frames but it only show on H4 only, secondly I would like to fill in the box as it only filled the first H4 candle.

Please refer to the attached picture below to kindly assist me with settings thanx you


One last thing I would like the box to cover only the body and not the wick.

Thanx you

So easy... it's all in the settings, and the understanding of the settings helps.

MT4 you can use different combinations of properties, you can use FTZY2 and select Timeframe as H4 to force the open & close of that period on all chart timeframes you select in visibility.
The letter Y catches the open & close of that H4 candle you choose Between start & End Hours

Same codes doesn't seem to work though on MT5, maybe a glitch somewhere ?

Please consider having those mt5 bigger frames e.g, H2,H6,H8,H12 in future this is indeed a good indicator. Thanx you so much

I haven't yet moved over to MT5, so I could take a look once the markets are open.

During the weekend I couldn't get it to work, maybe the indicator need ticks activity to work.

Edit: I tried once the markets opened on MT5 and the Y parameter code does not seem to be working, it automatically zones the highs & lows only.

Maybe pips4life could take a look

Thank you for your prompt response. Yes it does open on 12 hour however, I was refferrig to, when you open 12 timeframe, the breaker box doesn't show, it shows from the maximum of 4 hours, so I was asking if it's possible to open a biggertimeframe and still view it like 12Hour. Please see the attached chart is on 12 hour timeframe and I highlighted as an example.
