Hi guys,


Only problem I have now is the High & Low Range.. It's plotting differently, it's at an area where price never got to on Friday.
Open the Indicator (Market Panel Display Controller) in the MetaEditor and read the info on the indicator. It explains the Range H/L . It is not a simple yesterdays H/L range indicator.. and the lines will not be placed at the exact yesterdays H/L ...

I actually read it before posting on here but didn't quite understand the explanation initially though. But upon reading it again I think I now get the drift.

On the upper left corner you have the range inputed like this: Range: x, xx (where x and xx are digits). Previous Range indicators I have used actually show you previous day's range compared to the current day's range but this looks different. For instance, on the EU chart it prints as 15, 35 instead of 117, 35. Can you kindly explain what he is basing this calculation on?

Thanks for your response.

Well I think I found out what the problem was that was slowing down my MT4 with only 4 charts up and the sonic indies. It wasn't any of the indicators.

Max history and max bars in chart were waaaaay high. tools/options/charts

IBFX updated my mt4, they added pipettes (yaaaa isn't that absolutly great another decimal I didn't want or need........) anyway, I guess when it updated it reset max bars on chart.

Now that I set it down it seems speedy again.

Hi guys... Anyone having problems with FF calender indicator? Event appear and disappear (for example EU news in a few hours time keeps disappearing, it appears only when I restart my platform) and when I check experts/files folder it's empty. Also, on the other charts the indicator is placed on, it doesn't show anything.. Is this normal?

Changes / updates ??
No. These are not changed. They are as originally posted by Sonicdeejay. They required reposting because at some point ForexFactory did something to their programming that made previously posted zip/.mq4/.ex4 files come out as "php" files, which prevented them from being able to be properly downloaded.

Thanks for...
The Range data in the Chart Panel is based on the number of days you input for the average range to be calculated. The first number is that average range. The second number is the current day range. The RgH/RgL lines show either:

1. How far PA can go in either direction before reaching the average range.

2. If PA exceeds the average range, then the lines "lock" in at the average range and show PA now above/or below those range limits. If PA is high, then the range lines "lock" in starting at the low of the day, and show PA has exceeded RgH. If PA is low, then the range lines "lock" in starting at the high of the day,and show PA has exceeded the RgL.

You don't state what version you are referring to. There are more than one, even on this thread. The FFCal Headlines indy (my alteration of FFCal for SonicR) is upgraded in the new template/indys upgrade in work.

Also, at the open of the new week, maybe ForexFactory was updating their FFCal master file. I supposed as they made changes it could have affected the FFCal display.

A lot of folks don't know that they can change the number of chart bars in history, and on the chart, and by lowering both numbers they can preserve cpu resources.

I currently have max bars in history at 2000 and max bars on chart at 1000.

To lower these from the MT4 default settings, click on Tools/Options/Charts, and you will see at the bottom of the window where to make the changes. Changes become effective when you re-open MT4.

EU:

LO traders spiked price back up, closed the gap and a bit more. And this has the "feel" of them manipulating the price back up to where they had it Friday, for more closing of longs and opening of shorts.

US traders may do the same.

EU PA is behaving overbought up here. If the prof. traders consider it so, then they have a task to accomplish.....close their longs and go short. Again, the issue is liquidity. It may take multiple spikes back up over time, in order to accomplish their goal. This is because they need to coax other traders into the "wrong" side of their future move of the EU price. And herding the sheep in for shearing is not a day or two task.

Yeah, I'm very curious what is going to happen. I got 60pips from the fast move UP but I am not in the market any longer as the price is just around the Highest High.

EJ and EU, Today's Range:

If you look at the range on these two so far today, you can see that nearly all of the average range is used already. That leaves the US profs out in the cold!

......unless......

......unless the US profs have the duty today to slam them back down! Now, if this were to come to pass, it seems only logical that the greedy US profs would want something extra for their time.

......in which case, I would not be surprised to see the US Open with a bit higher run before any SLAM DUNK! Complete those ranges, THEN reverse 'em?

Okay thanks for your response. It works okay now. And it's your latest version of FFcal (light) I am using.

How about the range indicator?.. I read your mq4 file but I guess you didn't say what the calculation is based on. Previous 24hours, or previous session. Take EU for instance, Friday's range was 117, but it shows 15, x (where x is today's current trading range). Isn't it supposed to show 117, x (where x is today's trading range)? or perhaps I don't understand.. Please clarify.

Post your chart so I can see what you are talking about.
And FFCal (Light) is not my latest version for SonicR.

EJ:

Euro traders have pumped this to top of range. Question now is, what will the US profs. do? Will they take advantage of this, keeping it up while adjusting their positions? Will they slam it down? Right away? Later?

This is going to be an interesting week.

Not very good trades as I got cought twice by fake down moves.
Fortunately I am still a few pips + from the "OK" trade (in the picture).

One quite cool rule says "Wait for pullback before an entry" (c - Snusnufreak).
Follow it or not....?

Something is happening right now...what the market will show us?
