Period separators (MT4) showing Monday

New comment
 
Hi - does anyone have or know of an indicator that displays the period separators (CTRL and Y) but the monday separator is a different colour? I'm on a 5 day broker, so can't see monday bars easily. Thanks

fair enough. In that case, I can identify mondays by:

DayOfWeek()==1

But I don't know how to place this within the ObjectCreate function below (where the ?? are present):

ObjectCreate("V-Line",OBJ_VLINE,0,??,Bid);

Any ideas? Thanks

vertical line    "vline" 

Bid ??? 

not your solution       ObjectCreate("V-Line",OBJ_VLINE,0,Time[0],0);

Thanks for replying. This only shows one vertical line on the current bar but I want the a vertical line for every monday 00:00 bar. I already looked at 51252 thread but the code doesn't even work. Any thoughts?


Thanks again

 for posting your code see   This link Play video  

 

for all iBars

  if TimeDayOfWeek(Time[iBar]) == 1 Put a vertical line at Time[iBar]

Now post your attempt and the nature of your problem.

I'm with a MT4 broker GMT+2, so the period intervals don't show monday. A previous broker was on GMT and the separators have a double dotted vertical line to show monday starts. I'm trying to create an indicator that shows an orange (or whatever colour) vertical line starting every monday from 00:00 but going back as well.Here is my attempt:


extern color Line.Color=Orange;
extern int Line.Style=1;
extern int Line.Width=1;
extern bool Draw.as.Background=true;

int init()
{return(0);}

//int deinit(){ObjectDelete("V-Line"); return(0);}

int start(){
int iBars("GBPUSD",0);

for all iBars
   if TimeDayOfWeek(Time[iBars]) == 1
//ObjectDelete("V-Line");
ObjectCreate("V-Line",OBJ_VLINE,0,Time[iBars],0);
ObjectSet("V-Line",OBJPROP_COLOR,Line.Color);
ObjectSet("V-Line",OBJPROP_STYLE,Line.Style);
ObjectSet("V-Line",OBJPROP_WIDTH,Line.Width);
ObjectSet("V-Line",OBJPROP_BACK,Draw.as.Background);
return(0);}

 

  1. Play video    		Please edit your post.
    For large amounts of code, attach it.
  2. Post real code. Code that compiles. Code that you have attempted to debug. And then the nature of your problem.
