What are your settings for:

And are you using Stoch or RSI?

Could we standardize settings, so members can just drop the EA on the screen, without having to change anything, we have the screen width and screen height variables already in the EA, any ideas would be appreciated.

Hi Andy,

sure, that should be one goal! I am going to work on my DrawRectangle function again. ...

Cheers, Jürgen

int    gridCol1[]   = { 0,       85,     125,    175,   210,     260,   300,          360,  400,           500 };

...

int	symbCellLeft = 10,		// in pixels
		mainCellLeft = 85,
		cashCellLeft = 950;
int	headCellTop = 15,			// in pixels
		mainCellTop = -1,
		footCellTop = -1;
int	symbCellWidth = 4,		// in characters

Hi,

I'm using the RSI.

UseBothForPullback < == if true, the EA will start entering stop orders when both the RSI has pulled back and the AO is below/above the zero line, if false only one of them needs to pullback or above/below the zero line.

CloseWhenMarketReverse <== if we are long and the AO turns red arter a green, then close the trade.

Hi Andy,

I took several hours to experiment with my DrawRectangle and with drawCell (found some description here: http://forum.mql4.com/13898). Generally both methods face the same problem: they do not show the same results on both my machines.

For my drawRectangle I found at least one setting that displays correctly on both (see screenshots below):

Code: Select all

int    gridCol1[]   = { 0,       85,     125,    175,   210,     260,   300,          360,  400,           500 };

...

int	symbCellLeft = 10,		// in pixels
		mainCellLeft = 85,
		cashCellLeft = 950;
int	headCellTop = 15,			// in pixels
		mainCellTop = -1,
		footCellTop = -1;
int	symbCellWidth = 4,		// in characters
		mainCellWidth = 46,
		cashCellWidth = 14,
		headCellWidth = -1;
int	headCellHeight = 1,		// in lines
		mainCellHeight = 38,
		footCellHeight = 2;
int   rFontSize = 14;			// for drawing rectangles

This might be a good configuration to start with. If you need space for more pairs or other adjustments, you will always fiddle around a bit with the parameters, bacause you can't scroll vertically in the chart window. ... As always: any feedback appreciated!

Scrolling ...

This particular keyword led me to another idea: is it really necessary or convenient to display the grid inside the terminal??? What could be the alternative?

It would be pretty easy to write some html code based on the grid data to a file. Then we would need a browser to display that file (I already have a browser installed ) and maybe a little script (which I don't have at the moment) in this browser to pull fresh data from that file every few seconds ... that should be it.

I don't think it would cost more cpu than manipulating those label objects in the terminal. And with some simple css and html table commands we would get an alternate way of dashboard output without the limitations of our terminal. Maybe not as a replacement for inside terminal display but as an alternative the user could choose from.

Just thinking publicly ...

Any thoughts or suggestions about this idea? Anybody around who has some experience about writing html files from within Empty4?

I'm going to leave now for about 3 hours (Badminton practice). Next post not before 21:30 CET.

Cheers, Jürgen

We will also need a Manual for this, may be by next week.
