Make sure you are using the one from page 1 post 1. That looks like the test version from 100 pages back.
Bob, what's best.... having the Info Page on H4 chart or D1 chart? Thanks

The INFO page makes no difference what TF you have it on. Each indie is inside its own TF. In other words the Daily will always be daily inside the indicator and the 4H will always be 4H no matter what TF you use.

Bob, 759 pips for today. Mon & Tues were not good to me. I feel that the Yen is been manipulated by the gvt. and I have a lot of positions. It has been ranging lately.... it sucks. I noticed that by looking at the flat steady yen line on D1 CSS and pretty much the same on H4 CSS.

Is this correct? I'll apreciate your comments. Thanks

Could anyone, Bob, or some of you guys point me out to the 8 most traded pairs??, that way I'd only need to have this pairs opened...

Thanks a lot for your contributions, your big efforts in this thread and your reply.
Green pips to all.
Go into your Tools, options, charts and make the max bars back smaller. I cut mine back to 2000 and also my CSS to 100 and I have plenty of speed. I have a 1.8 MGh processor and 1 GB or Ram and can run 26 charts with the info page. Also delete from your market watch any currencies or metals you arent trading and you shouldnt be having any problems. Do give it time to load up the first day though.

Also un click saving deleted charts. This will keep your Empty4 running clean. If you know how to do it, go inside Empty4 and clean out the log folders every now and then. All these things fill up the folders and slow Empty4 down.

There is no 8 most traded pairs. We read our charts and go to where the action is and if you understand the 4H CSS reads that can change every couple of days.
Thanks a lot Bob, I will follow your instructions... I understand clearly the idea of having he info page is so we can go to whatever pair is moving, so no exclusiveness with any pair. I hope this instructions clear some RAM for me...

Finally just want to say, I'm sure your dedication to helping others around will not remain with no reward, from life or fellow traders / friends... thanks a lot Bob

I am also with Alpari UK and they have truly dreadful spreads.. Likewise I need a new broker..

I loaded a spread watcher onto Alpari and I'm not kidding you I've seen spreads on pairs which usually are 2-4 pips go up to 50+

Maybe. Maybe not. It's the end of the day, spreads widen as all the players pull their orders and liquidity thins out. It might be that you have an STP /ECN broker and are actually getting the same feed that they get from the interbank right now (which has widening spread because it's the end of the day NY time). Where as the other brokers quoted above are actually showing market marker or dealing book spreads where they take the opposite side to your position (and typically they make up for these "tighter" spreads by messing with your feed to margin call or take out your stops if they can - the nicer market maker borkers segregate their book into trading groups - if your profitable they will trade with you instead of against you...).

Now is when spreads go crazy (NY close). 10+ pips on GBPJPY all brokers.
