Man, I'd love to enter some trades, but the RSI indicator is behaving oddly.

On a side note, I just found out I can't gap trade with OANDA since their data feed is continuous.

my indicator seems to be working fine

what i would suggest is delete the indicator from your mt4 charts and the folder and then reload it.

If that doesnt work then it my be your brokers feed. Im with IBFX and have no issues.

something definitely weird going on - mine looks like this
I have been experiencing a similar problem for more than a week on FxPro especially with the D1, W1 and M1 arrows. Interesting to know that the
problem is not confined to my broker.

Thanks for your reply and for pointing out these posts. The issue however seems to be more MT4 related. I have been trying the suggestion of refreshing my charts and this has definitely helped. Indicators that were previously neutral are now showing direction. Each time frame needs to be refreshed individually though.

this is a fantastic thread, though during London trading, it is sometimes a bit like watching paint dry

Hello all,
My MT4 experience is several hours long now (FXDD Malta) and I'm having difficulty moving Lawgirl's Trend Display RSI indicator into the indicators folder on the platform.
I've tried to follow Scrutch's post from last October that is featured on page 1 of the thread, but I can't see how to either (a) copy Lawgirl's Trend Display indicator into the indicators folder or (b) import it into the indicators folder.

I've also gone into MetaEditor, opened Lawgirl's file there and clicked "compile" but the "compiling..." message continues for at least 30 minutes. (I exited because I assume it shouldn't take that long.)

I've also looked at Scrutch's posts since last October for similar enquiries to mine but can't see any.

I'd be grateful for any advice.

Thanks,

Kan
Thanks for your help, warmth and straight talking Heather.

i just did a simple copy and paste into the indicators folder on my PC, then close MT4, then re-open it - it should be there among the other indicators as part of the drop-down menu in the Navigator menu

I wish I could help you guys with the technical stuff, but I haven't a clue. I'll see if I can find Scrutch to see what he says. But remember, the RSI line can be checked "manually", which is what I did (and still do) before Scrutch built the arrow indicator.

Thanks to Dimlat and Lawgirl for your responses. I found Live Chat on the FXDD web site after hours of looking through the help screens on the platform and MetaEditor. I had been trying to load the indicator on to the platform rather than in to the MT4 directory on my computer ( Crogram FilesFXDD MT4expertsindicators).

so it is still a good idea to look, if the rsi line is in oversold or overbought territory, and not to watch at the switching arrows alone

Well done Anthar.

I like the idea of your list and post 1 forming a Manual. I’m sure I’m not the only one who has spent their first hours on MT4 learning the hard way.

My latest problem is that I'm changing the X and Y co-ordinates and the true/false statement as per Scrutch's post 2399 on page 160 and then re-loading the indicator into my Crogram Files/FXDD MT4/experts/indicators file and restarting FXDD, but I'm still getting the whole list in the top right of the screen.

Any advice please?

Kan
