    Would like to try out Multicharts DT version. Appreciate if someone can point me to the link to download JH scripts for MC. Not familiar at all with MC, so will this free version allow these indicators to be added in ?

    TQ

    The Discretionary Trader version of Multicharts can only use the indicators that come with it. You can tweak those indicators a bit. However, If you want custom indicators such as the JH set or other roll-your-own indicators you'll have to move to the paid version of MC. But don't spend any money yet, the paid version, MC 6.xx, does not have the trading features that are available in DT 7.0 Alpha. They will be available in version 7.0 of MC, due to be released, real soon now.

  3. Thanks to nkhoi and the gang for giving me a crash course in NT7. I only have two monitors, so I redid AaUnitsRemaining to only display the minutes and seconds to the left of the standard bar. It makes it more compact. Title is M1_AaUnitsRemaining for my Moose version 1 of it.

    This is my first attempt, so if I got something wrong; please bear with me so I can fix it!

  4. Ok, I fixed another one to operate on NT7. I apologize, as I do not know the protocol for renaming, and do not want to step on any toes. I renamed the Channel program so that it won't interfere with previous ones. This is based on PV_Channels_v02 and PV_ChartHelper.

    No changes were needed to ChartHelper.

    The "delete" key was interfering at various levels in PV_Channels_V02 and would sometimes delete all, sometimes delete the indicator, and I couldn't figure out; so I changed the key that activated it.

    The changes are as follows:
    I made the color of the channel automatically be green for an up channel and red for a down channel.
    Keypad + increases channel width
    Keypad - decreases channel width
    Keypad * toggles between red and green channels (no other colors are available because that is all I use)
    Keypad / deletes the selected channel (think Divide=Delete)

    The file is M1_Channels.zip and it contains the indicator M1_Channels_V02 and PV_ChartHelper. If I am doing this wrong or packaging it wrong, just let me know.

    I think that is it. It seems stable on my machine during the last session.

    Hi bigmoose,

    Thank you for the great indicator.

    I have OliveDrab for my chart background; and, neither Green nor ForestGreen will show clearly on my chart for up channel. I modified your code and changed lines 39, 43 and 1317 to "Lime" and compiled with different indicator name. Unfortunately , I still got Green and Forest Green when I applied the newly edited indicator to my chart. Could you help? TIA

  8. NY lines 1316 thru 1319 is where you have to change your default colors for the "toggle" function. The one that changes in my version from green to red; and from red to green.

    Lines 1008 and 1009 are the lines you need to change to set your "default" channel colors for the up channel (line 1008) and down channel (line 1009)

    If you get hung up, let me know your favorite two colors and I'll edit it for you.

    Sorry, I was in the lab all day today, and likely won't make the session until Thu or Fri.

    All the best, moose ... and a great "thanks to you" for the help you gave me the other day!

    Hi bigmoose,

    I changed color of Lines 1008 and 1317 to Lime for up channel; then, NT gave me error message. Could you kindly edit the up channel color to Lime for me, please? TIA

  10. NY, made the change and saved it for you as M2_Channels.zip. Default for up channel is lime; down channel is red. num keypad * will toggle between them. It works on my install. If you have any problems, let me know. All the best, moose
