hi lascavel, can you post your HLC bar indicator ? been looking for a stable one for mt4 platform--

or was there a way you got rid of the open price on the bar ?;;

thanks...

hi Taomql4,

Unfortunately is not for MT4

This is a MQ5 code, found as a default indi in MT5 version call "Colorbars". I just block of the code with a comment prefix on the calculation section for the open price. Still there are occasional artifacts but not a problem for me. Personally i prefer HLC bars for clarity reasons.

Unfortunately I have low IQ for programming.Perhaps some of you here with programming talent can try down-porting it to MQ4

Here is the MQ5 code:

Well, got only +10 on the previous short, as it turn back up, but I have been able to short it again more or less at the same price... and this time closed for +60.

My target was the same as before (1.3935), but since I don't like to trade after Europe closes, and I saw it stalling at 1.3950... couldn't take the risk of it coming back up to my SL a second time.

Makes the weeks less bad, but still red... better luck next week (tomorrow is a working day and no trading for that reason).

Good luck to all, may your week be greener than mine

Can someone explain me why, when I stick to my initial target, price always turns back and stops me... while when I manually close it earlier for whatever reason, it goes to my target and beyond?! LOL

Looking to long if we can get to 3200 area. All signs of a drop to tis area are there. Daily MACD has crossed and we got the pullback as clearance move. Daily hulls showing orange and starting to turn. Weekly Stochs severely overbought and crossed high in the upper quadrant. And 200 SMA and 89 Smooth converging seems like a nice place to meet up. We could see a nice fall here.

ES had classic dsitribution on the top today . I will post a chart once I am back at trading computer of how this looked .. tons of volume and price not going anywhere.

Sonofin and i were trading on skype at the time mentioned to him es was a sell ... 20 points later days range more than done.

I am not sure what spooked the markets ... something did ...or did it ? lol

I think gu and eu have major distribution tops on that may last another few weeks... that is what is causing this volatility

yeah ZH had a nice piece on that reverse POMO earlier. -$1.5b is such a puny amount and yet what an effect! Announcement on QE2 is due 03/11. Something tells me its gonna hit the fan when 'sell the QE2 fact' comes on board.
