FREE - FX News Alert application

That is the point. I can not code in any C language. I just know some HTML, PHP and some MQL.

Creating clickable buttons in MQL is practically impossible, so in order to have clickable buttons in my EA, I use dlls which I found in this forum. Then I get a set of functions for clickable buttons.

I do not. I have many useful information in one place, and i.e. I can move my TakeProfit or StopLoss with one click of a button, without having to modify my order. Because the EA controls those not the order. And I can do a lot of other things just with a click. The problem is that when there are many ticks coming in, all the buttons flicker, i.e. disappear and reappear, so this makes trade difficult. And there are other bugs, like the dlls crash MT4 when I try to change the timeframe of the chart the EA is running on. I workaround this by opening multiple charts, each with different timeframe, but that is not a good solution...

I'd rather keep comments on topic; email me via the feedback form, I'll have a look to see if i can help you.

Hi FiatFap,

Excellent app. Well done! I find it to be quite indispensible. The only improvement suggestion I can make is to have it auto-refresh itself immediately after midnight. I currently have to do this manually and often forget only to later wonder why there have been strong movements without my getting any news alerts.

Thanks!

I love this program.... but it is not refreshing today. It currently only shows last Fridays data.

Is it just me ??

My understanding (and anybody, please feel welcome to correct me, if I'm wrong) is that the news indicators developed by FiatFap, Euclid and Derk Wehler all get their data from this source: http://www.forexfactory.com/ff_calendar_thisweek.xml

If you look at the data in that source, you'll see that it hasn't yet been updated for the current week (starting November 11), hence none of these news indys are displaying the latest news events.

Thanks hanover.... I was hoping there was an explanation for it.....I see it did finally update.

I installed FX News Alert, but when I open it, I get error that says FX News Alert stops working, windows trying to find a solution. What should I do? Thansk

@Stearno & Jet1969

I use Win XP and my FXNewsAlert is working fine, so the calendar data is being read okay.

It sounds like a system error your end; which OS are you using? Email me on the feedback form and you can send me a screenshot and i'll try to resolve the issue(s).

If the app works, can you post a message in this thread.

@FiatFap, tried installing the application but it crashes. Sent you a bug report via your website.

FYI.. I'm using Windows 2008 Server

Thanks.

Hi there, cool tool
Is there a possibility to add other countries to the calendar? or it is only restricted to what we have in forexfactory?
Thanks !!

Hi FF,

Thanks ALOT for your efforts. AWESOME!!

However, I'm having some resolution problem or some sort, that i couldn't view the full window of the app.

This is what i get. Can you please help?

Cool app... What I'm really looking for is to feed the alerts into my EA, do you have anything that I could use, so that for a given filter I can acquire the upcoming news events for say the next hour and read them into my EA for processing?

I will no longer be supporting this version of FXNewsAlert as I've created a more powerful second version.

Please let me know where is news shown. I listen sound but news not found, plz tell me.

@Fx-Pimp

I have no idea why ZA is doing that, there's no nefarious code whatsoever. No-one else has mentioned this kind of error, so it may be a system issue. What if you tried to install ver1 in a different folder, as Program Files is usually admin stuff that throws its toys out of the pram for later OS'.

I uninstalled any kind of virus software many moons ago, as they became virus' unto themselves.

You can check the integrity of any exe using sites like this: virustotal.com

Anyway, this first version is now deprecated; please use the latest version here.

Wow, stunning!

It fascinates me how pps can create these sort of programs - I have no idea how you did this, but I was looking for exactly this - THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

I am surprised that no "professional" website (eg. myfxbook, FF, etc. etc.) has anything like this - they just have the economic calendar on their site and that's it! I needed something that will give me an audible alert and ahead of time - not at the time of the news, because I need to be prepared prior!

For example, myfxbook currently only allows visual notification of news events as they happen - which is useless if I am distracted with other things!

Kudos to Fiat - I hope karma repays you generously!

The Regard, FiatFap! My name is Igor. I from Russia, I do not know english so write by means of Google. I have installed fxnewsalert, used several days and was in delight, with many thanks for get prettier program, thank you! But, once upon a time, after turning for winter time fxnewsalert ceased to work and simultaneously site www fxnewsalert.com became not available, much sting. We Ask the help in decision of this problem. That could happen? Respectfully yours Igor Kulikov.

Does this program still work ? i am not able to get it installed

The new Web APP its nice, and now both of then to use at tablet or pc is a great idea....
Thanks for it!
