Bredin,

Is there a way in MT4 to make the box segments more noticeable?

Fibo tool w/ 5% rets and 200 pips long & no prices showing will cut the boxes into segments.

Then you can mouse over the edge of his box to get the last 10 level and count up/down 10.

That's exactly how I imagined the MT4 version of this indi.

60* down (2x)
30* up (1/2)

30* + 60* = 90*

????????????????

Is that what you are saying?


Yes, that's what I am sayin'

Try it on your Excel and see if it works...

The lines on my output are actually drawn with a sweetspot indicator ;)

all thats left to do before release is to make sure that the data is updating properly in real time, since it didnt after i went to bed this morning....

I might just knock up an indi to do the prices some justice...

"I thought that you only wanted to see relevant information?"

LOL

I agree, I don't mean making the sweet spots gold dashed lines more intrusive.

It's just that in looking at his initial screenshots it is harder for me to see how many boxes are in a "candle", I think the breachs actually makes it harder to "line things up" in my mind.

But I'm definitely not talking about making the sweet spots more intrusive.

It is just a different way of doing things and maybe I'll SEE BETTER once I use it a bit.

I am all for change and innovation if it makes sense.

So the idea is being, keep sweet spots gold as dashed (even though in the above picture they are not dashed but imagine that line effect is dashed in MT4), but show the lines going through the "candles" either as dashed or solid, or user defined.

Bredin,

Thanks again for what you have done :)

Regardless, I am looking forward to ripping the shiny packaging off our new indi and loading it up.

I did it that way because price is drawn through the middle of the box.

Im finding it easier to read without the lines at all, or with a sweetspot at much wider intervals. They also dont piss me off (MT4 being annoying again) when I try to mark stuff. Also seeing if 'lines' are batter plotted as lines through the price box or as a rectangle the width of the box....

Im also grappling with "price closing over an IF/THEN line"... I think I know what it means with P&F, but exiting at the close of MOMO really has me stumped atm :lol:


I think I will knock up a trig indi, tho. given that one box down is the "same" as one candle across. should be able to plot channels a lot easier with it than with MT4s horrible angle tool.
