Thanks for posting your chart, its much more understandable now since I couldn't see much difference with just a plain chart.

Taxes are only applicable for clients from a country in the European Union. For other people, there is no tax. My shop automatically recognizes this.

Mart Hart,

I tried your range bars that you upload on the start of the thread. (great thanks )

One question : do we need to open the offline graph each morning or does it update itself ?

Thanks

Hi Joe.

The one I uploaded isn’t very good.
It has problems with the open and close and when the market gets a bit lively it panics and loads up the fist bar it can think of.

I have been using MQL’s as a script just drag and drop onto the chart and it updated the range chart automatically.
I got them to change the period to 20 in the code so I could just drag and drop.
They did this within an hour but apparently you can put it in the expert’s folder instead so it’s all automatic.

I was subscribing to MCFX but there where limited indicators and no pivots. Also the history was very small and some of the ma’s where only 2 inch long.

You could say I am a happy bunny with this new Met4 set up and have put MQL on my Christmas card list


Mart

He he thanks for all those infos.

Me too i'm very happy. I've read somewhere but don't remember where, that a guy uses excel to filter the charts with ticks, exactly with this.

It's AWESOME to find it on metatrader !

I saw there is version 1.0 on the forum . Yet I can't download from their site as I am not the members....I even can't register a new account due to their technical problem.

Could you post the newest version here?

Hi michal,

The following are problems that I faced using wlas's version (he has just updated to the new version)

1. A lots of gapping.
2. Bars are not constance (20pips for GBPUSD, 12 ticks or 3 pts for ES, 25 pts for YM)
3. During high volume volatile period, bars update in the big mass
4. does not close on high or low. (you have solved it)

I was told that part of the reasons is due to insufficient datafeed. See the link here for images on above problems, Woodiepedia CCI Trading University :: View topic - MetaTrader range bar charts!!!

The other reason is that MT4 does not provide the historical tick chart.

I would appreciate it if your version can really address the above problems as I cannot even plot the left chart (from your images) using wlas version. If it is due to the datafeed issue, pls let me know which datafeed is ok so that I can do further test.

I would also appreciate it if you could test it live on Woodie CCI Live Chat Room, compare your chart with Woodie chart (generic chart now) – YM, ER, GC or NQ. Pls let me know the result.

Hi michal,

Is your version based on 1min chart as a datafeed to the offline chart such as wlas's version? or you are getting the data directly from every tick (I assume there is a MT4 command to obtain tick data as there is a tick chart from Market Watch menu).
