				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?

jesus christ 
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.

Hi There, The high/low of 150 ish is the yesterday hilo blue lines marked yHigh & yLow.
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.

the 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....

				Please 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,...)
Code: Select all
if(MarketInfo(Symbol(),MODE_PROFITCALCMODE) > 0) {
....
 
(Profit calculation mode. 0 - Forex; 1 - CFD; 2 - Futures)
Code: Select all
double GetPipFactor(string symbolName)
{
   static bool brokerDigitsKnown=false;
   static int  brokerDigits=0;
 
   // We want the additional pip digits of the broker (only once)
   if(!brokerDigitsKnown)
   {  
      // Try to get the broker digits for plain EURUSD
      brokerDigits=(int)SymbolInfoInteger("EURUSD",SYMBOL_DIGITS)-4;
      
      // If plain EURUSD was found, we take that
      if(brokerDigits>=0)
         brokerDigitsKnown=true;
         
      // If plain EURUSD not found, we take the most precise of all symbols containing EURUSD 
      else
      {
         brokerDigits=0;
         
         // Cycle through all symbols
         for(int i=0; i<SymbolsTotal(false); i++) 
         {
            string symName=SymbolName(i,false);
            if(StringFind(symName,"EURUSD")>=0)
               brokerDigits=MathMax(brokerDigits,(int)SymbolInfoInteger(symName,SYMBOL_DIGITS)-4);
         }
         
         brokerDigitsKnown=true;
      }
   }
   // Now we can calculate the pip factor for the symbol
   double symbolDigits = (int) SymbolInfoInteger(symbolName,SYMBOL_DIGITS);
   double symbolFactor=MathPow(10,symbolDigits-brokerDigits);
   
   return(symbolFactor);
}

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

@francisfinley stimpy 
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.
