Hello all,
Yikes - my 100th post already! Me and my big mouth..... http://cdn.forexfactory.com/images/s..._the_floor.gif
Anyway, still alive and trading! I know the experts say that you should start trading on the higher time frames and then work down to day trading. In my case, I think I am doing things backwards (wouldn't be the first time!)
For personal reasons, I am trying to spend less time in front of the screen. I could never give up trading after all these years, I just need to spend less time on it.
So I am basically using H4/D1 charts only now, with the occasional peek at the ultra-high-speed H1 chart to refine entries. I am trying to go for the longer terms moves, and so I am basically interested in the Monthly and Weekly FMRL lines, particularly when you get a confluence. GBPJPY has moved up 500 pips or so the the confluence of Monthly(+1) and Weekly(+1) and stopped dead around 137.10.
Confluence of Weekly/Monthly is very powerful and is nearly always respected by the market to a pip or so.
By the way Ray, I am pretty sure you CAN have external parameters on a script. I have several scripts with external settings. When you drag the script onto the chart, the External settings box comes up. You just put in what you want and press OK. Then the script runs just once in the normal way.
You just need to put
#property show_inputs
at the top of the script.
Best regards,
Old Dog

DislikedHi Jenks_fx,
Unfortunately, you cannot have external input parameters on a script - it just runs once then closes down. I could produce a version that only draws the lines, not the text, if that would help?Ignored
You just need to put
#property show_inputs
at the top of the script.
