Is there a way to make MT4 to use 8 hr charts? 8 hrs is a pretty standard period,
I was actually quite surprised that MT4 didn't have it by default when I saw the
platform for the first time...
If it is not possible at present - is MQ considering adding this period for the
next version? When is the net version planned for, by the way? I took a quick look
at the API, ut it does not seem that the API is suitable for writing MT4 "plugins",
i.e. a plugin which would add the 8hr period.
Now that I think of this - it will actually screw up lots of existing code, since
you'll need to introduce a new constant PERIOD_H8 in MQL... Still think it is a
very useful period and definitly need to be added...
