  1. Yes, the "width" of OHLC (not the width of the line, but how far the Open/Close ticks go left/right) depend on current chart's "candle width" (and thus the max candle width). They have to be controlled by *something* - this is the control. Why is that a problem?

  2. One note: the parameters to the DefinePaintbarParameter function have to be literals. Not variables. That's because what defines the parameter is not executing the function, but the pre-parser that sees the function and gets its parameter values. (That is also the reason why that function doesn't have to be called anywhere in particular. Stick it any place in the code).

  3. I looked at this stuff... The biggest problem for me with it is that MT's indicators are recalculated on the current candle - every one. The "value" of the indicators for past candles does not change, only for the current one. The determination of peaks for these patterns, and the patterns themselves, is by necessity in the past.

     

    I will look further at this.

  4. I have yet to see someone describe a rigorous algorithm to do these... From what I have read, these are a bit of "I knows them when I sees them" very subjective kind of thing.

    Do you have a link to some place that describes the algorithm for detecting/drawing these patterns?

  5. Well, the anti-virus applications *could* establish a central repository/whitelist of officially "sanctioned" and signed applications. The technology already exists, all there needs to be is coordination between all these companies. Or even willingness to do so.

  6. Troder - here is the easiest way for you to show me something that is wrong with P&F charts so I can look at the specific thing and see what I can do...

    You gave me your data files. Here are two charts using that data: GjaqFj7.png

     

    same time period... Can you point me (either describe it to me or make a copy of that image and put an arrow to it) exactly which boxes on P&F chart are incorrect?

     

    Thanks
