Pax. I have no problem starting only the HILO EA under BDM so it not the the EA. It could be the loading time of the indicators on the other charts take to long thus maybe a settling time of lets say 10 seconds "Wait time in seconds for the first EA......" could do the trick. Please try this. Outside market hours, you do have the MT4Ticker running i hope. {image}
Thanks for looking into it HP.
I did have mt4ticker running and did also play with the wait time setting but it did not help.

Could it be that I am using only the BDM141BASIC package with this MT4 installation ? so I am not having/missing lots of files and BDM indies like in the BDM140PART1, and BDM140PART2.

Do I have to keep this HILO EA in BDM/EXTERNAL folder? at the moment I am having it in the standard MQL4/Experts folder.

Anyway, I will try it again when the market is open.

Must it work this way or the [PAIR] button could be enable so I can go from pair to another
without closing a pair first.

Thanks HP!

The basic zip should have everything in it to get you started.
I am starting to distinguish between basic and later to be added add-ons for the simple reason the zips will be to large and the impact on a simple mt4 to big.

In BDM included there are templates and presets for different types of trading and it is unlikely that you will use them all together so the goal is to let you download and install only the things you need.

Yes, single pair selection has no autoclose function.

Basic should be enough.
If i test something out like your HiLo EA i do that always on a basic installation.

Because the system is template driven you are free to move everything to anywhere (within MT4 limitations).
So BDM/EXTERNAL is just something i came up with to supply a set of coherent example templates and and preset files.

If you are saying that the [fast] pair selection bar isn't working that's not correct, it should.
I will look at that.

I see price difference after some time.
Perhaps you use it different way ?

Hello HP.
As long as you do not post the corrected version of the Renko....

I use several strategies with MedianRenko. (clear looking price, more adaptive chanels ...). I have an open source code.
If possible, please add them to the new version of MultiRenko.
This is the bomb!

HP, I asked question not about STRATEGY. The question was about Renko driver ... His improvement.

One updated (BDMHelperv1.06) and on new (BDMCrossv1.06) program for the test lab.

The purpose of these two is to synchronize crosshairs between charts.

BDMHelperv1.06 is the most extended and can initiate and close crosshairs by the toggle shortcut key Ctrl + j

Each chart where the helper is loaded on can initiate and destroy crosshairs on all open charts but the mouse movement is only followed from the chart the crosshairs are initiated from.

It make sense to generate crosshairs on charts with the same symbol on them (single pair charts) but is not required.
The initiator chart sets the symbol and if a crosshair follower chart is not the same symbol it will only generate half a crosshair, so only the date line and no price line.

BDMCrossv1.06 is a simple crosshair follower and it can not initiate or destroy crosshairs ( Ctrl + j doesn't work) it can only follow them.
Great for fi. the strength charts.

For now the only crosshair color is white because my complimentaire color table is not complete yet.

Everything is interrupt driven so it should work pretty smooth.
Because of that it is pretty save to replace the old BDMHelperv1.06 for the new one without putting extra strain on the cpu.

Interesting Denya.

Here is the EA version that runs for 28 pairs (or selected pairs using the userlist) to try out.

For BDM users, this EA will register as renko driver in the background meaning that if you open renko charts in BDM no additional drivers will have to be loaded which makes opening and closing of renko charts faster.
