Room 217, You got it bro it just the color of the bars
I knew it...

but read in here somewhere that larger spread need larger range bars?

well, I comment about it but it's just my opinion... because if you want to make a little scalp sometimes even a good trade could ruined by the spread... btw, 7 pips spread on crude is too high my friend... on ava is 4 (10 sometimes) , oanda is no more than 2, ic markets I think is good too... there are some good brokers with betters spreads... and there are with no spread at all... take a look on the fxpros posts...

Hi PipMonkey,

No I know what CL is, I wasn't sure what you meant by 7 point spread.

To me spread is difference between bid and ask prices and 7 seems excessive, which made me think we are not talking about same thing.

On my platform for instance CL spread is 1 cent each penny is a tick and each tick pays out $10

Room 217 is right if you spread on CL is 7 thats way to big a hole to start in, all futures on my platform spread equals 1 tick

Sorry guys, some indicators in that pack are still buggy, several modified indicators don't update itself. I'm trying to fix all of them and then i will replace the archive with new versions. Yesterday market was closed and i didn't test them with live data before posting them here.

ok, all seems to be fixed. For people who did download the previous pack, please re-download it and replace all the old content of the indicators folder, of the previous pack, with this one. Still sorry for the inconvenience.

If something still does not work well, please let me know.

Hope everybody had a great weekend. Today was my first day of looking only at futures, no fx pairs. Traded late today didn't start looking till after 10 am est,
which is usually when I'm looking to call it a day. Anyway 2 easy trades for small wins.

Hi, good trades as always. Just a curiosity. How is the sugar volatility? it has always seemed to me that it was too slow, am i wrong?


PS: I have found a very interesting site with a lot of useful plug-in for mt4. The best part is that those indicators have a trial period of 180 days if used with a demo account. I talked with the site's owner; very kind guy...

It has indicator for generate:

- range bar without gap
- range bars with gap
- renko chart
- median renko
- point-original-bar
- tick chart

and an all-in-one indicator that has all those features in one indicator.

Yes you are quite right Sugar is not something that you will get a lot of trades on, for me maybe once every couple of weeks. But payout is 11.20 a tick and margin is 935. So usual return is 20-30%.
