MT4 build 419 works just fine, update your MT4 and problems should go away.
How do I update to 419 from My current platform?
Thanks

Please do not slay me: Which file has the arrow indicator? And into while folder should it go in MT4? I am clearly doing something wrong because I have beautiful dots and colors, but no arrows. Help from anyone appreciated.
Thanks!

RE: UPDATING your trading platform- I am by no means MT4 sophisticated, but typically when I close and later re open my platform it updates automatically through Liveupdate if it needs to.

hadley: arrow is CCIarrow indi, put it in experts: then idicators, with the others

Forex Girl: I use the 4hr for overall trend. I wait until all red on 4hr, then go to 15m, then wait, we often get a pullback then another signal in the direction of the 4hr (always a dot plus either a red arrow or candle)

thanks pudsybear i'll take a look.

yes it is Kfx, however the candle you point out on your chart has an additional 2 candles to mine. this is were the CCI is bouncing around the center line (could repaint these candles?)

In your MT4 click on "help" then "about", your build number will be there. Top of your screen.

Normally MT4 will alert you to a new version, if it hasn't you'll probably have to check your broker and see what version they are currently running, If they have 419 you'll have to do a download and reinstall, you'll also have to set up your indicators again though.


Watching this thread also, I like the easy stuff ^_^ I'm using heiken ashi with levels and a stochastic myself at this time.

Ok, I think those are just diferents betwen brokers, not repainting.

Here's what I did...

Right click on your platform's icon and select "Run As Administrator." Once it is opened, it should automatically alert you of a live update. Run the live update, close your platform, and then reopen your platform as you normally would. Once you open it, click on the "about" tab to see if it was updated.

Does it matter that there wasn't a red candle nor a red dot to go with the red arrow? I thought that all needed to line up for it to be a valid signal. Do you just wait for a red dot and red candle (for a short signal) on the 15m if everything doesn't line up when the arrow appears?

I think isn't necessary candle or dot indis line up with the arrow. Maybe kraven can clarify.

hope some of you got into the EU signal, i wasn't around but it looks good..

seems a bit of confusion about how i do re-entries..

imagine we had a big move down like on 2nd may. because we wait until the 4hr shows a down trend (all signals are red) we will miss that move on the 15min. So now we look fo a re-entry.

what i look for is a red dot (always) plus 1 other signal. sometimes we'll have a change of colour candle, but as long as the dots red as soon as candle changes to red or i have a red arrow i'll re-enter. Most of the time all are red (ideal) but not always...see pics, all circles are entries

this is how i'd have played this if i had got in...often using the 4hr to pick a TP, every trade exit is different.

even though we have a red arrow on the 15m on the prior candle we have no red dot until the next candle....nice and simple.

were in a downtrend on 4hr, we look for it to continue on 15m or we wait until an uptrend forms on the 4hr and then vice versa

ed. my sl would now be at .3103 locking in about 15pips....this is purely how i'd do this, if your in your about 40pips up so your call anyway good luck for any who got this.
