void CreateObj(string objName2, double start, double end, color clr)  
 { 
   ObjectCreate(objName2, OBJ_RECTANGLE, 0, iTime(NULL,0,D), start, Time[0], end);
   ObjectSet(objName2, OBJPROP_BACK, false);   
  ObjectSet(objName2, OBJPROP_COLOR, clr); 
    }    
void DeleteObjects()    
{
    ObjectDelete(DFRAME);
    }    
void CreateHL()    
{
    DeleteObjects();       
double HiDAILY = iMA(Symbol(),PERIOD_M5,1,0,MODE_HIGH,PRICE_HIGH,D);   
double LoDAILY = iMA(Symbol(),PERIOD_M5,1,0,MODE_LOW,PRICE_LOW,D);      
CreateObj(DFRAME, HiDAILY, LoDAILY, HLcolour);    
 }
 return(0);
 

so when you have 5 previous bars with a box, what do you want the indicator to do when a new bar forms, ?

 

hi... thanks for for u  SDC and  sorry for late replay...bad internet connection.

it's seem that because am new to mql4 programming...i didnt think about that......so it's butter to draw the rectangles on all hiistory bars

or the last 50 bars......which choice is easier to be programmed.
