Something like

C:\....\Metatrader 4\experts\presets

 

Settings

Thanks for the information. Two other questions. After placing in presets should each setting be compiled? How are the attached to the chart?

Thanks again!

No need to compile the settings.

Thanks,

I realized the mistake, those were ea's with settings needed to go into ea folder.

 

Regitering with Calendar

newdigital,

I tried to register with calendar, but the validation code image will not display on my screen.

Besides, since I am using the nfp_settings EA for each pair such as EUR/USD, etc, I don't really need to register with the calendar, do I?

In the input for each EA, it has calendar ID set at 4, which means that it uses your calendar, correct?

And the broker time is set in the TimeGap variable?

I hate to sound like an idiot, but if the broker time is off, then the trade will result in losses.

Broker Times

Just for info:

FXDD=GMT+3

Alpari(US)=GMT+2

PFG (ECN)=GMT+3

InterBank=GMT+0

ForexMeta=GMT+3

PFG is an ECN located PFGBest.com.

It's the only ECN broker that I could find.

You do not need to register to use NewsTrader EA. Just attach EA to the chart and EA will check the time automatically and will set correct news time for your broker automatically, and you will see it on your chart:

Yes.

And the broker time is set in the TimeGap variable? I hate to sound like an idiot, but if the broker time is off, then the trade will result in losses.

TimeGap = 5; // Time Gap between News Time and Order Open Time in min

If 5 so EA starts to place pending orders 5 minutes before news event.

Broker time is estimating automatically. No need to register with calendar and no need to search for some settings. It is automatically for every broker.
