Thank you Xard, but how do I decide on what angle to use for the currencies ? is it 22.5 default as seen in mql file ?Sarj wrote: Fri Jan 06, 2023 4:12 am Hello Xard, Can you please fix the Xard Index. Thank you for all you've given
XARD: In the Xard Index Line code you have to add the different brokers sysmbol used for WS30
int init(){
if(SymbolPair=="")SymbolPair=Symbol();
if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,4)=="WS30") {angle_up=360; angle_dn=360;}
if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,4)=="US30") {angle_up=360; angle_dn=360;}
if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,2)=="DJ") {angle_up=360; angle_dn=360;}
if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,4)=="DE30") {angle_up=360; angle_dn=360;}
if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,5)=="US30m") {angle_up=360; angle_dn=360;}
add new line
if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,4)=="Insert new symbol") {angle_up=360; angle_dn=360;}
then compile and it should work

You won't even look back at any other broker.

Just be careful with the broker you choose, because I know for a fact those two brokers do not accept clients from the USA and other select countries.
At some point we'll need to develop a comprehensive list of brokers that are best for people depending on which country they live in.

Something I just realized: Are the majority of users on Forex-Station not from Canada or the USA?
It would explain why most broker recommendations are tailored toward people living in the Eastern part of the world.

Thanks a million for the info about IndexEntry. I will wait.
Anyway, I tried Xards fix but it did not change, I used this to get the US30 chart Index Entry to match mine.
if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,9)==".US30Cash") {angle_up=120; angle_dn=120;}
Code: Select all
if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,4)=="WS30") {angle_up=360; angle_dn=360;}
if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,4)=="US30") {angle_up=360; angle_dn=360;}
if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,2)=="DJ") {angle_up=360; angle_dn=360;}
if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,4)=="DE30") {angle_up=360; angle_dn=360;}
if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,9)==".US30Cash") {angle_up=120; angle_dn=120;}
if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,5)=="US500") {angle_up=180; angle_dn=180;}
if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,6)=="XAUUSD"){angle_up=180; angle_dn=180;}
if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,5)=="DAX30") {angle_up=360; angle_dn=360;}
if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,6)=="GBPUSD"){angle_up= 22.5; angle_dn= 22.5;}
if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,6)=="GBPJPY"){angle_up= 22.5; angle_dn= 22.5;}
if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,6)=="USOUSD"){angle_up= 67.5; angle_dn= 67.5;}
nil desperandum

But this may or may not work for other brokers and symbols. As well as changing the angle value you need to enter the correct number of characters in the symbol name where I entered 9 as above.Code: Select all
if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,4)=="WS30") {angle_up=360; angle_dn=360;} if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,4)=="US30") {angle_up=360; angle_dn=360;} if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,2)=="DJ") {angle_up=360; angle_dn=360;} if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,4)=="DE30") {angle_up=360; angle_dn=360;} if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,9)==".US30Cash") {angle_up=120; angle_dn=120;} if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,5)=="US500") {angle_up=180; angle_dn=180;} if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,6)=="XAUUSD"){angle_up=180; angle_dn=180;} if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,5)=="DAX30") {angle_up=360; angle_dn=360;} if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,6)=="GBPUSD"){angle_up= 22.5; angle_dn= 22.5;} if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,6)=="GBPJPY"){angle_up= 22.5; angle_dn= 22.5;} if(StringSubstr(Symbol(),0,6)=="USOUSD"){angle_up= 67.5; angle_dn= 67.5;}

Thanks for the numbers but I didn't ask my question in a derogatory manner.
I was just asking because I know other forums tend to be mostly composed of North American traders, and didn't realize this forum was mostly traders from other parts of the world. That's all.
