Thanks again.

Any time you hover your mouse over any bar, along the bottom pane of the MT4 window it will show you the hi,lo,open,close values. If you have the cross-hair selected (which you can get more quickly by clicking the middle wheel of your mouse if you have one, or by clicking left and right at the same time) then you can hold the crosshair over one bar, then click and drag to another bar, and the numbers at the bottom will still change with each bar you hover over.

Hope that helps.

Thanks, Pipalot! Your template just made my day. It even LOOKS like the one off Xtick!

(Almost makes me wonder why did I bother to set it up manually beforehand, but at least it gave me something to do on winter break.)

If its in your indicator list it should just be a matter of dragging and dropping onto the chart you want it on

thanks tony but it won't go on the charts. I don't think i set it up right after i compiled it .I tried to put it in the expert advisors but dont know what the parameters are. Am i on the right track or should it go in the custom indicators ?

It should be a custom indicator

kampf, I had the same confusion back in October! (see post #51 in this thread). I would also very much like to know how to get the indicator to give all alerts without having to close it! Maybe we can write a petition to the acting chief Cowabunga Indicator programmer to make that change

What happens (and what I've read in a thread) is that when a signal appears, it will email the alert fine... but if you leave MT4 running and another signal appears, then it won't send another email...

Anybody know how to alter this? I've had a look @ the code (im only a newbie lol) and can't really see what limits it to sending only 1 signal.
