It would be great if every time frame name had different colour.
It could look like this: http://img546.imageshack.us/img546/801/screenshotip.png
Then we can draw R/S levels using specific colors.

Simply attach the indy multiple times, with a different pair in CurrencyPair. See post #151 for more info.

I simply type the pair symbol (e.g. EURUSDm) into the CurrencyPair parameter, and it works fine on my WinXP computer. But apparently it doesn't work on some Win7 configurations. I don't know why. See post #148; and also the disclaimers in post #1.

This probably means that your br0ker uses GBPUSDm instead of GBPUSD. Try typing GBPUSDm, or whatever the exact name of the pair symbol used by your br0ker is.

I'm sorry, but I don't see any benefit in doing this. You could manually attach a colored box next to the pair symbol ID, as a kind of legend, if you want to. The source code is now available in post #1, if anybody wants to change the color of the text objects.

Instead of having both pairs on the same instance, it's better to attach the indicator twice: e.g. once with CurrencyPairs set to GBPUSDm, once with CurrencyPairs set to EURUSDm. If you want to see candles for 3 different pairs, attach it 3 times, etc.

The screenshot in post #1 was achieved by attaching 3 separate instances of the indicator to the same MT4 price chart.

I am sorry, I don't understand your question in post #168. Anyway, it sounds like you have solved the problem.

Hello hanover,

Like many others have done I'd like to thank you for this wonderful indi, and your selfless sharing of your hard work.

I don't know if it is feasible, or practical from the programming end. I was wondering if it is at all possible to alter SpacingBetweenCandles from the current whole number settings from set to 1, 2 or 3 into decimals like set to 1.5. or 1.25?

In the attached charts the first one is SpacingBetweenCandles set to 1 and the second attachment is SpacingBetweenCandles 2. I'd love to be able to have finer tuning between the SpacingBetweenCandles settings.

If it's not practical or possible thank you for consideration.

Thai,

Thanks for your kind words.

I'm afraid it's not possible, because MT4 only allows histograms in sub-windows to align with the candles in the main chart (as opposed to shifting them left/right by a fraction of the main chart's candle width).

Not sure if I understand you correctly, but..........
I am sorry, it is not possible to add indicators or line studies to this indicator. This question has been asked before in the thread.

{quote} If you're using the indicator to check the PA in the immediately higher timeframes, you can probably downsize to 3-4 candles in each of the next 2-3 higher timeframes. The screenshot in post #1 was merely designed to show the fullest possible capability. For example, I trade the H1, and I find the H4 and D1 give me enough info re the next higher trend. Timeframes lower than H1 are irrelevant to me. Hence my 22-inch monitor (from which the screenshot was taken) is more than adequate. Taking this further, there are 'traffic light' indicators...
Thanks all for the help
please if someone code it so that we could see the current candle lenght ? in this picture
