Put this file into the "terminal_folder\MQL5\include\" folder, please.
Nice work...

Just delete this block with CHARTEVENT_TRADE.
Thanks Rosh...I did that an it compiles.
However, it's not clear to me that the indicators works as described or possibly I'm confused on what it is supposed to do.
For example, when I add it to a 5 minute chart, the timer tells me how many minutes are left in the hour and how many minutes are left before the next 5 minute candle. But when the 5 minute timer gets to zero, the bar is not updated...as I would have thought. In fact, the timer continues to count down for at least another 1:15 minutes before the next candle is painted.
Is it possible the indicator is not in sync with the candle's closing time? Or perhaps there is a server (demo ) delay in sending the new candle data to my terminal?
As it is, it's not very helpful if the painting of the new candle etc... is not in synch with the timer.
thanks,
