You can fix the grid indicator by changing it to 1000 instead of 100 in the settings. That is what i do on my 5 decimal broker platforms now.

I had the same issue in the beginning. If you try attaching the indicators manually and then saving the template again it should work.

I got everything to work but it just wont show all the trends. Its not a big problem I just thought it was handy to scan the charts.

Hello Nightmoves and the group. This is my first post in FF. I just became fan of this forum thread and quietly watching and learning. I have come across lots of time consuming, Time waste and money loosing stretegy. But, this one just rocks. I have spent about a month and a half following this thread and also checking videos from Hector all over the net and free first chapter.
I am ready to buy his course specially for the custom Dashboard indicator and wanted to ask you mentor group. Would this indicator work with the Live mini account that I have? Reason I am asking is that I see that dashboard shows Regular currency pairs (such as EURJPY not EurJPYm) would it scan pairs associated with mini account as well? Also, Someone in the group noticed that it has issue with MT4 demo account as well, as it does not show ADR value. Does anyone else has this issue or workaround? I would like to buy this course solely because of this indicator so that i can cut down my time watching all the pairs and TF..

Thanks again for this precious thread and watching and learning and as soon as I have my hector+indicators I will be posting more..

Oh, i posted my previous post before reading this one...you closed it out? 131 pips on the second part. Not bad. Not bad at all. Good, bold moves, ladies and gentlemen, happens every day.
Yes I closed it there is a RN between me and the NFP and I think its going to back up and not recover before the NFP comes out. So If the numbers look good then I will re-enter and go for another ride...

Damn! that EU is still kicking them in the nuts. High probability of retracement due to profit taking on friday...but IF, i mean, IF the NFP numbers supports the USD...the move in EUR/USD to the downside will be many, many more pips to come.

I cant say it enough, nightmoves: WELL PLAYED. Well played indeed.

See? Fortune does favour the bold. (intelligent boldness, of course).
also don't forget the higher time-frame. eur/usd hitting big d1 support. Might be hard to push through. Let's see what the nfp can do about that.

Yes I thought I had more room for that trade, but the RN and the NFP coming out tomorrow made it a little risky I think...I thought I had more room on it but I didnt so I took what I could get.

ouch...seems like you missed a nice trade here.
It works out really nicely, in retrospect, i still wont take it. Rules and rules.

Take for an example these setups from yesterday, H4/H1 :

AUD/USD, NZD/USD, GBP/USD, EUR/USD, USD/CHF, USD/SGD

All H4/H1 trade from yesterday. All broke out at exactly 15:00 hours london time(10am US est time). The european ones(eur, gbp, chf) immediately went on a tear. But the AUD, NZD, moved a tiny bit then consolidated till important red-labeled news from AUD and NZD news hit later in the day, then, only and only then did these two too join their brethen and barrel down like a maniac. Check the charts(H4/H1), check the breakout time, check the news time, check what happened on the chart afterwards. The point here is that NZD/USD and AUD/USD held off their momentum breakout, stalled it, for that important, upcoming red-labeled news of NZD(unemployment rate at 21:45 london time (or 6:45pm US est) and AUD(retail sales 0:30am london time or 7:30pm US est) later in the day. Despite the fact that the initial breakout happened at 15:00 london hours(10am US est trading session), they waited for six to 7 bloody hours, for their news. After those news were released(negative for AUD and NZD), these two(aud/usd, nzd/usd) then join their brethen tearing away like a gazelle on steroids in support of USD.

Bottomline: So, yeah, i could have entered and price action could have stalled all day waiting for the GBP and EUR rates decision later. Why risk it? there is always tomorrow. Apart from that, the GBP/JPY was a fine looking trade.

Damn you, custos! where have you been? I can only imagine your sniper touch trades right now on these USD based trades that broke out yesterday:

EUR/USD, USD/CHF, GBP/USD, USD/SGD, AUD/USD, NZD/USD.

All H4/H1.

CHRISP has been quiet too. probably stuffed his mouth with too much pips he cant talk anymore. hehehe.

it seems this week has been good to us too.

HI flowpip,
The reason the ADR does not show up many times on the DB is because the platform may not have all the pairs on the dash board, I can use the MIG MT4 and all the pairs are in that platform and the DB works fine, but if 1 pair is missing then of course the ADR will not work. But for the most part I do not use the DB that much very rarely. I find that setting up the mini charts makes it easier to look across the board for anything that looks good.

The indicator in the upper left of part of the charts is very useful, because it lets you know that you should be looking at that chart, and to search the other time frames on that chart, so that is pretty handy imo. Many times if the indictor in the upper left of the charts shows nothing on any time frame, then I will not waste time looking for anything.

When you have 3 or 4 TF showing the same thing, say an uptrend on several time frames, then you have just found a really nice trend to look for entries. So the more TF that showup trending on the indicator the better the chances on locating a really tame trend to play with.

haha, actually this week I couldn't watch the markets a lot, cause I was quite busy with some other stuff. But I got into the eur/usd trade. not a lot of position size though, since I was not able to watch my position. Entry at: 1.4018 and 2 targets hit 1.3979 and 1.3855. Now waiting for my last target 1.3755, I know ATR is already overstretched and I see the weekly/daily support, but stop is at the second target, so not much to lose. However, the last hour I analyzed some other pairs and didn't really see nice setups for the moment, pairs need to retrace.

actually I did take another trade today, but also only small position. Didn't work out, but I am quite proud that I didn't get out with a loss, but with a profit.

First target got hit, moved stop to b/e, then my stop got hit. So overall a profit, but not really adding to the balance.

This was also a touch trade
