Another Economic Indicator that plots a vertical line color coded with the news impact, imports news from investing.com, if you hoover over the line it tells you the specific news item. I feel like it congests my charts less this way.

Hi All, So the news_investing_com indicator broke a few weeks ago because the website where the indi originally obtained its information changed. I have worked with AI to fix this, and it now retrieves its data directly from Investing.com. I have also added the ability to change the locale of the data provided, For example you can select Italy and you will receive the calendar in Italian and it will populate your chart in the Italian Timezone which removes a lot of confusion, and there are 33 locations to choose from. Please remember to set your Broker offset further down in the settings.

Also to get it to work in your Metatrader 4 options, under Expert Advisors you will need to 'Allow WebRequest from listed URL' and then add https://investing.com into the list below that option.

In the interests of sharing, here is the source code and the compiled code in case it is of any use to other people. I can do a some coding but I am not coder, so if you encounter any issues - it will be a team effort to to fix it .
