I used a similar indicator that was in a "free trading system" thread. Probably it was your indi or code.

Is there a version for MT5? I mean MT5 has a lot of time frames such as h8,h6. So it will be very useful to see what's happening in a different TF.

Thanks for your valuable indicator again.

Thanks for your feedback, but I'm afraid I won't be writing MT5 versions for any of my indicators. Too much hard work for too little return.

@omonisha: Just noticed your post now. Thanks for your feedback also.

So I kept on searching and came across this: http://www.mql5.com/en/articles/749 I compiled everything, but when I load it to MT5 it didn't show the MTF charts.

And found a little work around too.


In MT5 you go to Menu > Insert > Objects > Graphical > Charts

Then add/configure the looks and save it as a template. But if I were to load the template, I will lose all my analysis!!! There is no way that I can overlay a template; is there?

I am sorry, I have never attempted to use MT5. Hence I can not help you. Maybe you should start a new thread, where your question is more likely to be seen by other programmers.

ATS,

Looks like you've done some fine work here.
No doubt the folk who follow the SonicR strategy (and probably many others, also) will find your enhancements helpful.
I will have a look at the updated indicator when I have some time.

Looks like a great indicator, thank you for sharing, especially sharing the mq4 file.

I am unable to compile under the latest Metaeditor (getting StringReplace & char error), I am able to compile it under older editors, but MT4 is not allowing to load the file.

Any ideas?

Thank you in advance.

Here's the version of atstraderRecentCandles.mq4 which is compatible with Metatrader Version 4 Build 7.1.1 after some minor amendment.

Good luck

Hello,
does anyone know how to modyfy RecentCandles indicator to show other instruments? For example my broker offer futures named #ECH5 --> Euro 3 month future contract.


##edit
I figured it out, there was missing '#' in range of letters in code, from which indicator takes data to set proper pair. Adding '#' solved the problem.

{quote} 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). David
HI Hanover.

Is it possible to add 2 Moving Averages to the Multi Time frame indicator.
I want to use the 5min Chart as my trading chart and have my MA on it Nut it would be really good if i can have 2 moving averages on the different Time indicator

Thanks

Leon

Leon,

It's not possible to add indicators like moving averages to the original version of Recent Candles, as the candles themselves use all of the 8 buffers available in MT4.

However, you might like to have a look at the enhancements made to Recent Candles in post #186 (further updated in post #191), and also the Multi Charts indicator developed by Christina here. I haven't used either myself, but they might be worth a try.

Good luck,
David

I don't know how to make the indicator in post #191 work correctly.

Attached is the latest version of the indicator that I originally created. It works correctly with Axi Trader MT4 build 940 (settings shown in screenshot).

Dear hanover,

I was wondering if you could tell me how to replicate the layers of pairs like in the attachment if it is possible.
Mine shows up in one line only at the bottom. I need to scroll the chart left to right or right to left to see them all. It is not a big deal, but I would prefer to see my favorite pairs in more than one layer.

Many thanks

Antonioo

It's been a long time since I used this indicator, and I don't recall exactly how it works.

Have you tried attaching the indicator multiple times?

I do not know how to attach the indicator multiple times. I am interested in the 1h and 4h only.

Thanks

Antonioo-
It appears to work if each instance has a unique symbol in the CurrencyPairs input. Multiple pairs will also work as long as they are unique.
