the key to the mint

IT GUY

I am having a heck of a time setting up the codes posted here to put on the charts so that i will get alerts sent by email (with a snapshot photo of 1H for entry) and to text message to my phone too.

The goal is to get get text to my phone while sleeping to wake me up and set a trade. The email is for while I am at work during the day to show a visual confirmation before entering the trade.

I have tried the path:

1. Key to Mint with Hour Restriction w DiNapoli Stoch Ind v1.mq4
SendMail.zip This is found in post # 1068 by Martyman.
I went into the written code to make sure the file location matches with my C: drive and indicators are located in indicators folder. I checked "Allow DLL Imports" on the common tab. I installed the gmail per the instructions and even set up an email account jsut for this.
I do get the pop up window showing an alert, but seem to be false alerts. Then I also get a pop up asking me that I have a program that wants to send me an email - click yes or no to accept. I click accept and then check my email, but no emails or text message is sent.

Any ideas on this indicator that was created by MikeP?

in the code one states this:

string Profile = "default"; //make sure you can send email with you default mail settings first

How would i confirm the default will send email?


2. Just put yours on the chart, but cant seem to find where to put email placement on it. i open the code and think this line (in bold)is where i need to put my email so it knows where to send. can you confirm this??

if (DoEmailAlerts)SendMail(emailsubj,emailbody);

does your alert also send screenshot too? if not, would you?
does yoru alert send text to phone too? If so, how? If not, would you?


Many Thanks for any assistance you can provide me

fxshadow do me a favor and post the stoc dinapoli indicator and let me see if i have the same one as you ok

i have taken mikep indicator and got a free smpt server and open a gmail with pop set and when i get a cross this rings my phone with text

Harold,

I had the same problem with not being able to see the pairs and their direction in the upper right corner. I just figured out why. I had to uncheck "Allow DLL Imports" on the common tab. Then it appeared. the 6 pairs are all in yellow at this time. they are

EURJPY
GBPUSD
GBPJPY
AUDJPY (guessing this replaced CADJPY not in MT4)
EURCAD
GBPCHF

which one was it the mini or regular and what demo platform you have because i have ibfx and north finance and i unchecked it and it still doesnt work what stoc dinapoli you have and can you post it here

I'm sure it's the same one. Probably incorrectly named. Mine is named
StochasticDiNapoli.mq4 to match the naming that is inside the code.

its the same one i have o well no text for me i will live cant go crazy over it

I made the change in gmail to accept pop. hopefully that was my issue for emails not sending.

I still have issue with false signals and no text to phone.

what the indicator does and its only purpose in my book is to let me know when all 3 indicators are in aline it may happen that this wakes me up and at the close it doesnt have a signal nothing we can do about that except go back to sleep cant have it both ways i think at the end of this month i will be changing my schedule to go to sleep about 9-10 and wake up 145 am if i get a signal and get my profit on that candle i will go back to bed and i am done if not i will stay up till i do. trying to get more time with family with more sleep too

I am using IBFX on MT4 platform. i tried in on the mini and the full lot alert indicater. try checking and then unchecking a few times with only one alert indicator on chart.

using the StochasticDiNapoli_v1

You saying that MikeP indicator will have this false readings and the only way to look at the chart to confirm if false vers valid?

This seems strange that a code written can not be exact when dealing with the closed candle and your three indicators.

i have the same stoc i clicked off allow dll on all the indicators and still no tesxt

The mini is for use on brokers that name the pairs with an aditional m for mini accounts.

i think the indicatoris letting you know there was a cross i dont know if it is based on close

i put that stoh on removed allow ddl and still not on charts

Hi fxshadow, ican't et any text to come up on my chart/s either, i have the six pairs showing on my screen at one time at reduced size.

i had enough this is more work than trading i need to take a nap see you guys in the morning

Please see the attached screenie in regards to the email setup. My indicator uses the built in email function in mt4. I would suggest using your isp's smtp (sending) server information as many isp's block outgoing smtp to any other server but their own.

Enabling pop in gmail will not work as pop is incoming mail.

Harold the default placement of the text is the upper left corner, try changing the location to 1 or 3 to place it on the right side of the chart. I wrote and tested it on an ibfx demo mt4 so I know it works. If all else fails close down the terminal and reopen it.

i have done every thing you said and still no text dont worry its not a big deal

IT Guy,
I am getting the following error messages with regard to the Multi Mint Alert indicator.
2008.01.08 19:02:19 Cannot open file 'C:\Program Files\MetaTrader 4\experts\indicators\StochasticDiNapoli_v1.ex4' on the GBPCHF,Daily
2008.01.08 19:02:19 Cannot open file 'C:\Program Files\MetaTrader 4\experts\indicators\StochasticDiNapoli_v1.ex4' on the GBPCHF,H1

I assume it is to do with this that the indicator won't work, any ideas??

Thanks
