thanks so much - you aree very kind! I hope these display variables help you and others although I recognize it's maybe my own OCD that this addresses!

Here's to clean looking charts!

Hanover,

How have you been!

Very nice tool. One I will be adding to my very sparsely populated trading toolbox.

Bravo!

Enhancements:
1. Timeframes now display, left-to-right, in the order you type them.
2. Can now have a different number of candles for each timeframe.

The <pair>,<timeframe> label has been moved to the bottom of the window, so it doesn't get obliterated by the indicator name in the top left. MT4 doesn't allow the latter to be moved or removed (as far as I know). I included the currency pair as part of the indicator name, because it allows me to locate the sub-window# of the indicator/pair, for subsequent reference.
Hey bro just wanna say that this indi is what everybody needs. You are more than great.http://www.forexfactory.com/images/icons/icon3.gif

Hi, this is wonderful tool, thanks for the contribution. I am just wondering if you can do a script which could display upto,say, 20 pairs on one window, TF is left up to user's discretion? just an idea and a small wish. of course, if you are too busy to do it, that's fine. thank you anyhow for such a great tool.
This has been implemented in v1.06.

See post #1 to download, and for more info.

Unless there are bugs to fix, this should be the last upgrade for a while.

Are you going to install candle pattern recognition? I have some CPR code, if you would like to incorporate it.

I have written a Candle Identifier indicator here. It highlights mainly single candles (outside bars, hammers, dojis, etc) though, as opposed to 'combos' like Three Soldiers or Morning Doji Star.

[Edit] I've attached another CPR indicator that I've found during my travels. I expect that a forum search would unearth many more.

Thanks a lot for the indicator, its great to scan for PA formations fast. I really appreciate that u share it for free.

Just one thing, its there a way in which the indicator can be display as bars instead of candles?? Its not a big deal, but im used to trade using bars and maybe there is an option i missed.

Thanks again hanover

Cheers

This is not possible due to the fact that MT4 only allows indicators to be represented as either continuous lines, histograms or wingding symbols (in this case, each candle is represented by a thin and a wide histogram superimposed on each other). To display bars, the code would need to be completely rewritten to draw lines/boxes as separate objects. Sorry, but I have no immediate plans to do this.

Hi Hanover, this indicator is great! Can you make a 'Strategy tester" option so it plots the candles relative to the current bar in the tester window, not the current time? It would also be great if it updated when attaching do the testing window, it appears to be dormant in the current version.

Ola!

Hanover, just want to thank you for your indicators. Great job!

Superb help with Price Action.

Too bad you had to remove Candle Identifier indic, 'cause I was primarily looking for such indic.

Have fun, all of you,

Simon

Hi Dave

Is it possible to have a very stripped version on the main chart like my attached pic?

Without any more information but the TF chosen (user defined). This would be helpfull for systems which are traded in a special TF.
