As for the cosmetic changes: these 2 lines colors are selectable via the
"colors" tab; they are the indicator's "buffers".

*slaps forehead* LOL I never looked under the color settings. I just figured they'd be inside with all the other color parameters.

Sqaulou, do you see my post #734 and see the pic where it is only showing 8 TP levels instead of 9?

Yes I saw it.
It should be fixed in the last posted version.

Hi Squalou.

I took the liberty of adding ShowDisplayPanel=true to the code. I set my setting to "false". I'm sure there's a demand for such a setting somewhere. Pretty self-explanatory, methinks.



I hope you can incorporate this in your next iteration.


Kind regards, and thanks heaps!

Squalou, the chart seems really crowded with old fib lines. It seems to me that only the current fib lines in the white box should be visible. So if there isn't a good reason to have them, how about we make them go away, please?

Also, I'm OK with Imrans idea for a True/False choice for the chart info graph.

How i put my email in signal mail alert?....
Julio Bento
Julio, I see you in other parts of the Factory asking about your email question. But you are asking the wrong question of the wrong people. I see that you are from Portugal, so I know that English is not your first language. So let me help. Here is the link to the best answer to your question. This should give you everything you need:

I'm bored. Just for fun I'm going to predict that we're going to have an upper breakout on M15 G/U today. If it works out, and if enough people care, I might be persuaded to tell why I chose Up instead of Down. There is a reason. It's not just a coin toss. See you back here in 10 hours for a post mortem...

hey forexhard,

i'm pretty fresh to trading and i've read through the whole thread, and have been following it for only about a week and a half now but it's motivated me to actually sign up for an account on this website and become part of the discussion. i want to start posting some charts next week and be involved even though i'm only interested in demo trading so far. i have to say though, as more and more of the details of this system come to the light the more and more intriguing it becomes...

so all in all, thank you for the time you've put into this thread. i hope i can keep learning more and more from you - and i definitely care about why you would pick up instead of down

Looks like your prediction is correct at the moment ..it's been a great week for the system ( got at least 5 strong break from eu & cable)..Just gonna stay on side line today due to so many fuss about Mr.Ben at Jackson Hole..

Good Luck & have a nice weekend all ..

As expected ForexHard. Will you be sharing the source of your prediction? I will take a stab at it. Was it because the higher timeframe (1HR specifically was bullish and trending up?)

Thanks!

Thanks Imran for the Display Off option. Now the only finishing touches left is the request of FXhard which is the previous TP lines Off option.

Again Squalou, thanks for the upgrade.

Price tends to move from areas/zones of support (demand) to areas of resistance (supply) and vice versa.

Nice guess, but no. FYI, I never look to any other TF for directional bias. If I'm charting on M5, then all of my decisions will be based on what I see happening on M5 alone, and so on. Nor do I base my decisions on fibs, RSI, etc. Except for plotting the CZ and buffer lines, I don't use any other type of indicator. The CZ, and how price reacts around it, is all I need.

Care to try again? Remember, it's all right there in the "before" pic from post #790. "So simple it's hard".

"Tends to" is the operative phrase, and I agree with your premise. It does tend to, but then again, which ones and on which time frames? Even that is too macro for my example from last night. Think micro. Think, what you see in that one pic and nothing else...

I 'm going to say...because it has to fill in the gap between the CZ zones.

THANKS FOREX HARD

I have been trading SR Lines, off and on for 3 years and solidly for 1 year. I do pretty good.

I am visual - I try to create someting that triggers my brain. So most of the time I use colored lines. Green Support or buy - Red Resistance or Sell - Blue is minor but note worthy.

Look at my eSignal Chart on CHF - I have been trying to get long for a week. 1 win - 1 loss - 1 BE

Look at my MT4 - Box - THANKS FOREXHARD

CHF went almost to trigger in London Session - Then retraced near the bottom of the Box - BUT COULD NOT BREAK OUT OF THE BOX

THE BOX GIVES ME CONTEXT - I was ready with a pending order and after BB news - The Market took me Long and Long and Long.

My eSignal feed stopped for about 5 minutes - Lucky I had the MT4 charts for back up - took profit at the 3rd Fib Take profit - Did Not get it all but good enough.

WHAT I HAVE FOUND - The boxes give me focus - across the 4 pair I trade and I have my PENDING ORDERS IN EARLY on more pairs.

Yesterday I had 3 trades - CAD then GBP and EUR - all profitable.

THANKS FOREXHARD - IN THE NOT TO DISTANCE PAST - I WOULD HAVE MADE ONLY 1 OF THOSE TRADES.
