@ Shabs19..you were Right it was a custom Indicator causing the Trendline to disappear when changing to another timeframe, i am not a coder so i cannot change the code that is causing this problem, i will post the Indicator if anyone can change the part of it's code that is causing trendlines to disappear when you change to other timeframes. as long as you stay on the Original timeframe you have drawn your trendlines or any text or objects it's fine, But as soon as you Switch to another timeframe Everything you did on that Chart is Gone even if...
Can't look at the code on an ex4 file, do you have the mq4 file ?

Try using this spread Indicator:

Hi,

Try this script Visible_Pos.mqa. It plot little arrows where your orders are on your charts.

@ Shabs19...i do not have the mlq file for that one...but i did find that Spread Indicator you mentioned a cuple days ago after my last post, it works Good in place of the 4xspreads i posted.
Thanks

@Shabs19....i had the chance to load the Spreads Indicator on my charts that you posted and it looks Great, it looks like what i am after, i posted earlier about the Indicator that was giving me trouble called 4xspreads, that is the only file i have of that one.
it looks Good on the chart and is useful to see the Spread and big bold letters for what Pair your looking at as well as setting for optimal spread price that will show green when spread is at my lower setting, if you do not draw lines, objects and other things on your chart it's great, but if you do draw things on your charts and then switch time frames that Indicator some how makes all what you did on the Original chart disappear, so i cannot use that one, i wish i could find the file you need to maybe look at the code to correct the problem.
i will keep an eye out for it and post back if ever i find it.

For almost any application, including MT4, go to the menus at the top and click on the "Help" menu and select "About". You will get a popup with information about the application, including version and build number.

Hi,

I have a problem. MT4 doesn't let me to put SL or TP on a market execution. They only let me to place SL or TP just on a pending order.

How can i solve this ?

If your br0ker is ECN/STP, then you need to first create the market order, and then modify the order to add the SL and TP as a separate step.

Or find a script/EA that performs both processes for you. I have one, but it is a commercial product.
