time box text error

#1 Postby brokeMike » Wed Dec 10, 2014 8:56 pm

Hi,
The time box prints the range = XX pips on a higher timeframe where it's not needed.
To replicate, add a time box to 5,15,30mins and text appears on day TF

Edit: also when stepping through the chart with a time box, the new candle is not in the box (when it should be) until after the candel has finished, this is very confusing because you don't know if you're still in that period.

Edit2: also noticed with params 8 to 22 times box shows:
M30: 8.30 to 21.30
M15: 8.15 to 21.45
etc
looks like a condition bug

Edit3: and the colour gets inversed also.

Cheers.

Hello,

Yes, we know about these problems with TimeBox indicator.

Please find a version of TimeBox indicator with correct color in attached files.

As for current bar, you can see the current time of testing at the bottom of Forex Tester window and check if the current time is in range of Time Box indicator.

thanks for the update, i'll try it out.
Sorry, but not drawing the current candle in the box when it should be in the box, is bad and should be fix IMO :/
Also alpha order of the indicator list would be nice ;)

Hi
there's another bug with timebox and timebox2
it shows the range text on the one day charts without being added to the one day chart.
Could you post the code?
If so I could get set up, do you know if the dll can be generated in http://www.codeblocks.org?

Also, I can't see the bid/ask lines when inside a timebox.
thanks.
