Daily open line

[Hellion]

Anyone have a simple daily open line indicator?

[FX Helper]

Hello,

Please try using Forex tester built-in indicator Time Box. This indicator can show you necessary period of time so it can show you daily open as well.

[Hellion]

Hey FX,
I appreciate the help but absolutely nothing shows up on my chart with the Time Box indicator. I've deleted everything from my charts, tried different background colors. Different colors and settings in Time Box and I get nothing. =/ Odd

Hello,

You need to have minimum 2 hours difference between "From hour" and "To hour" seiings (for example "From hour"=0 and "To hour"=2) to see color fill of the indicator. And check "Timeframe" tab when adding new indicator to make sure that you add indicator on correct timeframes.

Also please note that Forex Tester draw blue dashed line when new day starts.

This only boxes in the candles and gives me a daily range. I need a daily open price (00 GMT) "pivot point" line.
Thanks

Hello,

Can you please send us screenshot of what you need? Do you have a solution for MT4?

[Hellion]

Finally found some Metatrader Code that gives a simple Daily Open line. It actually gives a second optional line that I can live with or without.

In this version:
There are two open lines- current open price from meta trader time zone, and additional for some custom. You can set euro and us session.


I would gladly pay someone to make this Forex Tester 2 useable. I would still like to be able to see the code to change colors, dashed to solid, and stuff like that. I have other Indicators I'd like coded as well, but would be happy with this one.


Input parameters (to shift open price):
DailyOpen = 0
EuroOpen = 8

Daily Open indicator displays the opening values of the day and the Europe session. However, you can adjust the parameters to display other sessions. By default, the blue line is the daily open and the green line is the Europe session open.

Hi,

I see this message dates from Dec14
So is there a daily/monthly open line indicator or not?

Thanks

Not yet. I may however be paying $50 to get one converted.

This is a a easy job. Paying $50 for this conversion is not worth.

[Hellion]

Actually I was offered to pay $20 for the above pasted code to a DLL. I have since then sent them another code which is the $50 fee. New code below. I have other indicators that I need converted as well. Just trying to figure out exactly which indicators I need the most since about $50 a pop can add up fast.

Tradista,
Many thanks. That was very kind of you and it very much appreciated.

Hi,
Here is the one I use in my mt4 platform, if it is any help.
