Nice Job

I would welcome the ability to:

- select color of each level

- select font size of each level

This will allow me to have better visibility in the charts that I use.

Cheers

Hi, currently the colors are calculated as a gradient between 2 main colors, according to volume size. Would it be ok if you'll get these 2 colors setup? I think it would be a bit oversized and hard to use settings if it seperately mention every color.

The font size is also calcuated between 1 (minimal allowed by MT) and 5 (maximum allowed by MT) value. This is not a font actually, but indicator buffer width. All I can do is to allow to select minimal and maximal width. Then if you select both 5, they marks will be all large. And, for example, if you choose 1 to 3 they will be smaller than now. Will it be sufficient?

Hello,

In my terminal, the indicator aren't storing data. Can you help me to set up this ? Do I have to create the books folder ?

How do I make the indicator look like the first image?

You may try any preferred Wingdings symbol in the CharCode parameter, for example, 108.

How do I save the information for the next days?

You may use OderBookRecorder to write live data into hob-files, and then load it in this indicator.

Could you also add opacity to the dots? The hide the candle. 

Also, the ability to carry over the data if the chart is closed (like auto save).

Thanks!

Hi, since this is just an indicator, I'm not sure opacity is supported in indicator buffers. AFAIK, it's supported only on canvas. Try to open chart properties -> Common -> Chart on foreground.

To preserve the data you should keep OrderBookRecoder running - it'll write the data continuously, so the indicator could read the files and restore the picture after it's closed and reopened.

But if you close all charts (including that with OrderBookRecoder) then nothing will help. MT does not provide built-in API to get historical book events.

For ethusd, I am getting this error message under the Experts tab 'zero divide in 'OrderBookIndicator.mq5' (154,102)'

For btcusd, I am getting this additional error message 'MarketBookAdd failed: 4901'

Nothing showed up on the chart for these symbols.

The first error is caused by the fact that the symbol information is not somehow provided -- please, download the attached script, compile, and run on ethusd chart, then send its output to me.

The second error is the system error -- ERR_BOOKS_CANNOT_ADD -- it's generated by the terminal and I can do nothing with this. It most likely means that your broket does not provide books for btcusd.

For crypto, I got these in the experts tab

symcheck (ETHUSD,H1) = 1.0

symcheck (ETHUSD,H1) = 0.01

For currency pairs, the first value is 100000.0. Second value remained the same.

Please, upgrade to new version 1.4.
