today, i tried this EA and look like my picture. btw, how i open my trade? i was learn this system like PIN and TZ (little). so, i have question: what is BQ? what is strength? what is IN? what is OUT? {image}
In current version you need other dash for open trades. EAX is perfect because you can use signals created in DashTZ for poen/close trades in EAX.

PIN IN forget it because is removed in next build ( this weekend ). PIN OUT is all PINS mixed and send it as signal to other dashboard ( EAX/DashTZ ).

@Hotpotato, can you check if BDM implementation is fine? When you have DashTZ loaded, press box button in pairs ( top ). That will open settings. Later you put enable and choose BDM mode you want. Later press box button again and settings will save it. Then open chart with DashTZ and see if works fine. Thanks for advance

Brain,

Only the popup chart works.

In your selection you also have type: timeframe and detacht but those are not a chart types but options opening a chart.
Only to chart types you can open are BDM$popup and BDM$single$auto

About you setting panel.

DashTZ resizes the chart to the right to open the settings but i think in most cases DashTZ will already be to the right on the screen.
But perhaps it is only meant to write an initial config file ?

Also DashTZ does not resize back to his original size after closing the config part.

When you close settings windows resize to original size, but that build it's only for test BDM and it's incomplete.
About BDM options I will change it. Then do I have put option for timeframe and detach?
About settings opened at right, we will have some v0.7x for improve new UI. I can add settings panel in subwindow now I have code for open subwindows with mql4.
If you ask why MT4 settings dialog have only 1 option, it's easy. New UI is for avoid use MT4 settings. Settings are persistent, then it's more flexible. You can change settings file without have make templates and you can change settings inside EA very fast and more easy to see or organize it

I gave up that config file thingy a year ago.

What happened was that i sometimes wanted settings x with indicator y on a chart but other times settings a with indicator b.
So i had to create a settings x and settings y file but because i wanted to switch between the two i ended up making templates which save your settings anyway.

I do not say i can't be handy but experience learns that people usually create templates anyway and to create a template (where the settings are already there) which says to DashTZ load settings from file xyz is a bit obsolete.

Another point, if you save the setfile automatically and a user is trying something with his settings, does not set it back before closing the chart you end up with a wrong settings file next time you start.

Its first build. All its very basic. MT4 dialog its horrible when you have EAs with a lot of settings like EAX. I'm sure people will help me in make this panel useful for all kind of users. You comment is a good start for improve it. I will see how can resolve you comment me

About templates, I always had problems when I use new version of something and they changedd settings order. Really MT4 settings are not good

PS: For first question, i can add file option and load it on fly.

That is one reason because I want this kind of settings. Are dynamic, only show info you need everytime. You see extern type and SnR/TZ types

I think you want window have same size than first capture when you hide settings, dont you? If is 'yes' no problem. Now I have hardcoded window size. I will read values before change it for restore to original size when you close settings

About BDM options, i will let this:

1) BDM Enable
2) BDM Type ( single, auto ).
3) BDM deatch
4) BDM TF

So its ok?

Well, i do not want it but i can imagine that other users will.
Nothing so irritating as indicators/EAs with there own ideas.

Then explain me what behaviour you need for you BDM. I can put mode for work like you want while BDM option is enable. No problem but you understand I dont know how BDM works because I never use it and I dont know you handle the things inside BDM.

Today I want upload new version and I will not modify more things but in next build I can adapt it perfectly to BDM.

Timeframe is M1-MN1 value but you do not need to set it it is optional and otherwise BDM default.

GlobalVariableSet("BDM$popup$tf", timeframe_to_popup);
GlobalVariableSet("BDM$popup", index_to_currency);

Resizing has nothing to do with BDM.

Example 1 user dashboard without BDM.
Example 2 open config but not enough room to the right.
Example 3 after closing config dashboard not the same.

Not criticising just pointing out things you may miss in your test setup.

@Hotpotato, I implement the BDM basic commands. I think is fine but check it, please. I resolve the size problem too. In future builds I will create mode only for BDM with all commands you sent me.
Its not finished, have small issues but Its only for test BDM.
