man, for like 80% of things I look up in google I find the perfect solution in a post of yours....wow
Some day, not now, I'll make a donation to you

why can't i get it to work!! i open the offline chart and it's just blank with some vertical gridlines

Hi Justin,
Try opening your MT4 'as administrator'.

That worked with me when the EA wouldn't generate M2 offline charts....just an idea.

Mike

didn't work, and i chose allow dll imports..

looks like I got the renkolivechart posted above ^^^ to work.

Why are there wicks though? Wouldn't those be new renko bars instead? That's one of the points of renko bars isn't it to not have wicks..?

It shows you the highs and lows, which on a normal renko chart you wont see

HI Justin,
Glad you got your Renko to show.
As for wicks, you may be able to go to your Renko EA Inputs and deselect 'show wicks'.


Mike

Hi everybody,
Am new to renko charts and have certain clarifications to resolve.
1. can i auto trade with renko charts using normal EAs available in codebase as it is an offline chart?
-> if not, does it work if i include my strategy within the renko EA itself and run it on M1 time frame?

please help.

thanks in advance

My ea work only

This works as an ea in 1 min chart
if you whant something more profetional like renko as an indicator that doesnt stuck try ovo forex

Please excuse my ignorance, but what is that? Is it:
a) an expert advisor designed to execute trades? Or
b) the expert advisor required to update M2 Renko chart?

A detailed description would be very helpful!

Is there such a thing as a Renko EA that trades automatically for you?

Its an EA designed to change the way the candlesticks are formed. Instead of being based on time, the renko bases candlesticks on Pips so a new candle is formed after a certain number of pips are moved in a direction.

An EA is a coded program and although most Renko EAs dont place trades, I guess there is no reason one that trades cannot be coded.

Hey I was wondering if you have been able to get the 2 minute offline chart to update as a live feed ?

for some reason the only way I have found to get the Renko 4.13 to update is by opening up the 1 minute chart that the Renko 4.13 is attached too, open indicator list for that window, tap Reno 4.13 > edit> then hit ok> close

and the 2 minute offline chart updates to that point but then again stops updating live

dllexport is checked

any help would be greatly appreciated

For all you guys looking for a working renko, but unable to do a forum search, look here.

BTW, this won't run in the Tester unless you do something like this.

if ( IsTesting() ) {
printf("Running Tester");
HstHandle = FileOpen (SymbolName + RenkoTimeFrame + ".hst", FILE_BIN|FILE_WRITE|FILE_SHARE_WRITE|FILE_SHARE_READ);
} else {
printf("Running Live");
HstHandle = FileOpenHistory(SymbolName + RenkoTimeFrame + ".hst", FILE_BIN|FILE_WRITE|FILE_SHARE_WRITE|FILE_SHARE_READ);
}

Here is an updated version 3.4


//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| Notes on Tester:
//|
//| 0. Run this EA in Tester with RenkoTimeFrame set to 1.
//| Later you can run any EA or indicator on this Renko new chart
//| 1. Rename /Terminal/history/server_name/ directory to some temp name
//| 2. Create new empty directory /Terminal/history/server_name/
//| 3. Copy the new M1 files from /Terminal/tester/files to the new history folder
//| 4. Delete all the files in /Terminal/tester/history/
//| 5. Exit and restart MT4
//|
//| You can now run any EA on Renko Bars in the tester, just like normal.
//| Use M1, every tick.
//| Don't forget to put back your real /Terminal/history/server_name files back after you're done
//| Also delete all the files in /Terminal/tester/history/ again
//| Exit and resart MT4
