The position starts to go bad and approaches my stop loss. Before it hits the stop loss, my EA uses the...

So if you have seen...

Hello Group, I am looking for some assistance with the following two indicators: Fisher Yur4ick and Fisher Yur4ick corrected.

Good Afternoon, I don't like the default metaquotes properties on charts, especially the colours. I change this by using F8 on my keyboard to a scheme of my choice.
