Good day.


I'm rather new with MT4, but have been an programmer 4 a while.

I just want to know how to I put and up/down arrow where the "IF" are true.


Eg... if x=y.. then put and up/down arrow at that point.


I can put arrow in the "past" before the expert start running, but I would like to put one after the expert has started.

For now I would be happy If I can put an arrow on every bar. Or just some inicator. Even lines or and smily face. Arrows would be nice.


Any help would be very appreciated.


Tnx

Same method is used. Show your code.

Good day. Here is the code. I really appreciate your time to have a look at this.


int start()
{
//----
double PriceClose, PriceClosePrev, BandTop1;
double BandBot1, BandTop2, BandBot2;
double BandTop1Prev, BandBot1Prev, BandTop2Prev;
double BandBot2Prev, MACD, MACDPrev,arrowCount;
int cnt, ticket, total;
string say, say2,name,name2;
double say3;
BandTop1=iBands(NULL,0,26,1,0,PRICE_CLOSE,MODE_UPPER,0);
BandTop2=iBands(NULL,0,26,2,0,PRICE_CLOSE,MODE_UPPER,0); //This is the top
BandBot1=iBands(NULL,0,26,1,0,PRICE_CLOSE,MODE_LOWER,0);
BandBot2=iBands(NULL,0,26,2,0,PRICE_CLOSE,MODE_LOWER,0); // This should be the bottom


say3=BandTop2-BandBot2;

say=BandBot2;
say2=BandTop2;
say2=BandTop2-BandBot2;





for(int i=200;i>1;i--){
name = "Up"+i;
ObjectCreate(name, OBJ_ARROW, 0, Time[i], High[i]+20*Point); //draw an up arrow
ObjectSet(name, OBJPROP_STYLE, STYLE_SOLID);
ObjectSet(name, OBJPROP_ARROWCODE, SYMBOL_ARROWUP);
ObjectSet(name, OBJPROP_COLOR,Lime);

name2 = "Dn"+i;
ObjectCreate(name2,OBJ_ARROW, 0, Time[i], Low[i]-20*Point); //draw a dn arrow
ObjectSet(name2, OBJPROP_STYLE, STYLE_SOLID);
ObjectSet(name2, OBJPROP_ARROWCODE, SYMBOL_ARROWDOWN);
ObjectSet(name2, OBJPROP_COLOR,Red);

}


i=0;

ObjectCreate(name2,OBJ_ARROW, 0, Time[i], Low[i]-20*Point); //draw a dn arrow
ObjectSet(name2, OBJPROP_STYLE, STYLE_SOLID);
ObjectSet(name2, OBJPROP_ARROWCODE, SYMBOL_ARROWDOWN);
ObjectSet(name2, OBJPROP_COLOR,Red);


ObjectCreate("signal",OBJ_LABEL,0,0,0,0,0);
ObjectSet("signal",OBJPROP_XDISTANCE,0);
ObjectSet("signal",OBJPROP_YDISTANCE,50);
ObjectSetText("signal",i,14,"Tahoma",Gold);



//----
return(0);
}

 

Your object naming naming logic is broken.

Good day.


I'm sorry I must not be as smart as I think I am. I've chop and changed most of the code and made an huge mess!. Would it be possible to show me the code / function. eg. PUTARROW;

then in the function would be function Putarrow { The code };


Thanks would really help. If I have code that works I can then take it from there. All I need is the Rosetta stone.


Thanks again for your help.

Hello. Thanks for the Rosetta stone. I sat a while, but figured out how it works and have written my first semi successful robot.

Thanks again. :)
