Hi folks, I have the Forex Freeway indicator on my Metatrader 4, I like the visibility of the pivots and fibs it shows on the red and green vericals. However, I also want to use it on Indices, but it won't work currently. I think this is likely to be due to the fact that Forex instruments will be in the format n.xxxx, while most indices will be in the region of nnnn.xxxx, so the decimal point being so different is probably what is having this effect. I've looked through the code, but I'm not really sure what I'm looking at, and cannot see anything which might be working off the position of the decimal point. Can anyone please advise me on how to configure the indicator to work in this way please?

Many thanks in advance for any help.

Oh, now that's frustrating. Do you mind me asking which version of MT4 you are using and which data provider? Although I can't see why that should be a factor, but I'm totally confused now :-(

Thanks in advance.

I do not have the DJI on my version, so I am not quite sure where you think the problem is.

no decimal point, perhaps it is just the Russian data, try another symbol,
The ES and NQ have a decimal where as the YM does not

Hi again Foreverold, the problem is that on the DJI, the little bright horizontal lines do not appear on the red and green verticals. I initially thought that this might be because it was designed for Forex, and invariably Forex pairs have a decimal after the first digit, which the majority of indices don't. However, it can't be this, because the YM looks like it has the same number of digits as the DJI. I don't recognise the YM, which index is that? I've checked several other indices also, and all the same. I can't see how the indicator could possibly know it was looking at a forex instrument as opposed to an index.
