Hi, i'm trying to write a label in a separate window but i don't succeed. Where is the error?

int init()

{

string short_name="Test dashboard";

IndicatorShortName(short_name);

ObjectCreate ("Indicator_based", OBJ_LABEL, WindowFind("Test dashboard"), 0, 0);

ObjectSetText ("Indicator_based","+ Trend +", 9, "Verdana", DarkOrange);

ObjectSet ("Indicator_based", OBJPROP_CORNER, 0);

ObjectSet ("Indicator_based", OBJPROP_XDISTANCE, 20);

ObjectSet ("Indicator_based", OBJPROP_YDISTANCE, 20);

as for arrow indicator,that is not for general and usual trading use but for trailing stop loss move,it was especially coded by krelian99 an active senior member of tsd forum on my request and still it needs more features to add,:) .arrow appears on the bar that have one previous and one next bar lower than this arrow bar in down trend,same way,one previous and one next bar higher than arrow bar in up trend,even 1 pip,so logically arrow appears after completion of one next bar,be care about this point,any way code is here ,thanks.

Hello.

I want to modify an indicator like this.

if 5seconds(Time_Limit) passed after current candle open, let the indicator doesn't generate signals.

I made like this but it doesn't work properly.

extern int Time_Limit = 5;

if(SIGNAL && Timecurrent() - Time[0] < Time_Limit*Period())

How can I code if I want to make signal time limit ?

Please help me.

Please help me.

change this line

if(SIGNAL && Timecurrent() - Time[0] < Time_Limit*Period())

to this

if(SIGNAL && TimeCurrent() - Time[0] < Time_Limit)

and it should work

What does the "percentage for the current day" mean?

In most of the cases it is varying a lot, and in a lo of cases it is impossible to calculate (since it depends on spread too, and there is no historical spread data)

I mean "gain in percent" compared to the account balance from the beginning of the day - so, if I had $200 on my account and today I earned $20, it will show a gain of 10% next day profit will be counted from $220 and so on but if it's not possible to do, please disable only showing the list of all open trades - I will be very thankful for help
