Hi Sentaco

not sure i understand why you are long?......the pair is below Daily open so we should be just looking at shorts right?

cheers
kim
Right in the bullseye Kim....

And, with oil hitting the skies, I have a little feeling that it's not a very good time to go long on USD/CAD....

Cheers!

Forex007,

Oh boy! ema's, qqe's...oil...I am having a nightmare! Peter....where are you? Sorry, Forex007, I am trying to find some humor in your insistence of introducing elements that are not part of DIBS.. This does not negate the fact that you may be doing what is right for you.

moneda I think forex007 is correct, peter did say he used other factors to determine his best i/b's

What is in your doctor's bag today? The G/U is looking good! ..

What is in your doctor's bag today?

Today I got a little lazy... maybe the flu, maybe the cold dark outside, maybe my warm bed waiting..... Just got the Japan Express riding free till now... I guess you guys riders of the beast (GBP) are in need of some motion sickness pills today, right?

Wow... just saw the charts right now! EUR and CHF are playing that that YO-YO stuff! A kind of unusual for a Monday.... Pills? Anyone?

Cheers!

Dear Sunteco. I am long USD/CAD too,because on 4H we MACD show us a powefull countertrade UP, 1H MACD is UP and 3 reversal formation is finished and broken up and 15 minit is absolutely short term bullish. Why not to take this countetrade even if it is against a major Daily trend?

Aaarrgggghhhhh! There we go! Full of good intentions to rein in my tendency to close profitable trades too soon, I let the free trade on this mornings eu rip up to 1.5835 (40 pips).....then watched it retrace a bit....OK, after the retrace, it'll resume the upward climb (thinks I!!!!).......doh! Looked in at 12.15 to see it had shot down like a hare chased by hounds, so fast Oanda took a while to exercise my stop. Anyway, got BE plus 1 pip, as well as PT1......so, a profit nonetheless!
What a fun day!

I've modified the original in&out, it will now only do IB's with and will show when price is also equal to the previous bar. well thats the plan but i need a referance chart to check it on, can anyone remember the last time we had an equal hi or low? so i can check it, before i post it and it's not functioning correctly.

MPP

EDIT: found them on EU same high and same low.
Is this new version of in&out in the paperclip place? Also, using the old version of in&out, I have to thicken the lines before I can see them, but when I exit Metatrader and then reopen it, the lines have gone back to thin again. Is there any way for me to make the thick lines default?

Also, does anyone know if there's a Daily Open indicator that could be used to show the Weekly open instead?

Thanks

I also had that very problem with line thickness... To make the thickness value you want as default stick you have to open the source (.mq4 file) of the indicator with an editor and change the default thickness numbers. Then recompile the indicator (or delete the old .ex4 file and restart Metatrader). I don't remember where exactly in the file the values were, but I recall it wasn't too difficult to find, it is a 2-minute thing.


Edit: I actually changed it in two different places in the .mq4 files. look for these lines in your indi file and modify the last number in them, that is the line thickness:

Place 1: #property indicator_width1 4
Place 2: SetIndexStyle(0,DRAW_HISTOGRAM,0,4);

As you see, i have my default thickness set to 4.
