I have attached a new version of LibFF.mqh to Post 1 of this thread. As Thomas mentioned, ForexFactory has moved the calendar xml file to a new location. The new LibFF.mqh is checking both locations for some news data.

What you need to do:
1. Download the new LibFF.mqh from Post 1 and copy it to your \Include folder
2. (Re)Compile (F7) CloseOnNewsEAv1.2

I will post the new LibFF.mqh to other threads that refer to it (eg. FFCalIndi and FFCalLines)

Good evening Rene:
I have done what you said, the compilation is OK, I attach the EA to the graph but I do not see any news, or High or medium or low, I have all put them in real but I get nothing in Empty4.
This is normal ? I have done something wrong?
Thank you very much for your speed in solving this problem.
A greeting.

Why do you think that an EA that closes/disables trading would show news?

Because others I know also show the news, but you do not know how long it will take for them to occur, for example ...
So how do you know what the EA is going to stop and at what time?

Nothing has changed with regards to the visual feedback in the CloseOnNewsEA. The only thing that has been changed, is the location of the calendar xml file (i.e. the URL) the EA uses to look for news data.

If you want so see the news data, have a look at this thread.

Hi Renee, super work on the CloseOn NewsEA and works perfect on my local computer empty4 setup but for some reason it does not work on a VPS setup, actually no dll dependent News EA or indicator seams to work. It is a win 2012 64 bit VPS. Do I need to change VPS service. Is it dll dependent problem or where do I begin try to fix it. Is it just me or is there anyone else who has have the same problem?

Hi Boli,
It does work on my VPS. Have a look in the Experts tab for some obvious messages. If DLLs are allowed and it doesn't complain about that, it might be that your VPS has blocked its firewall for HTTPS requests (port 443). Check with your provider if that is the case.

Sorry can't help more.

Hi Rene, you were absolutly right it was a block on 443 (Internet xplorer could not access ForexFactory) but to fix it they hade to give me a new VPS with windows server 2012R2.

Thanks a lot for the help.
