Thanks for the update! Again regarding DAX30 (CFD) here.... the spread, HiLo,... aren't correct afaik?
(Spread here is ~0.8/0.9 points, High to Low is ~150,....)
And showing POWERMETER on CFDs doesn't really make sense, do it?

Xard is giving this for free - how many people are requesting custom edits, custom colours, custom indies, custom display with commentary on how to use it?
If the base is currency then you would have to do all the decimal work to get custom market spread/hi lo, like indices going and add switches for currency meters where it isn't a currency market - give the guy a break.

184Hi There, The high/low of 150 ish is the yesterday hilo blue lines marked yHigh & yLow.Jagg wrote: Wed Apr 03, 2019 7:35 pm Thanks for the update! Again regarding DAX30 (CFD) here.... the spread, HiLo,... aren't correct afaik?

The HiLo in the InfoBox is actually today's current HiLo which is actually 157
Just checked the Powermeter, it is spot on. Just go from 1hr to 5min to see confirmation
I will look at the spread again, probably just rounded off no doubt.
A lot of broker account plus offers 0.0Pip$ spreads for their retail customer base.

looks like xard's great system has given many people a wake up call who were hibernating here for a while,
just like USD sell off.
Re: XARD - Simple Trend Following Trading System
186the funny thing is, these people that are coming in requesting stuff are on other forums bouncing from system to system to system - what does that tell you....rijay wrote: Wed Apr 03, 2019 9:04 pm

Re: XARD - Simple Trend Following Trading System
187Please calm down... I've informed xard about some "wrong formated" infos which he CAN (or not) change in one of his next versions.
(I would do it for myself which isn't possible because xard post only the ex4 files which are not editable - and this is his right so no complain about that)
The functions are all there to have it working for nearly all kinds of "instruments" (cfd, forex,...)
(Profit calculation mode. 0 - Forex; 1 - CFD; 2 - Futures)

well, given you are mr serene you can code it all up and post it under your own thread captain function.

Please let xard decide if he wants user feedback or not. If he is not interested in such info - one comment about that and I will not post such things again.
