Hello Alex, thank you for this nice Indicator.
Can you create a Multi-Tick Chart ?
Also draw a Candel about 100 or 200 Ticks, not seconds.
Thank you and bye

Hi Alex, i was also wondering if you can create a tick chart and show it counting down on the screen, at present i use 1 minute bar candles for my entries but could really do with a 90 tick chart like you can get from tradestation,many thanks. Alex M

Hi Alex , this is perfect exactly what i need, do you no if it is possible to create a entry box when you trade from the charts. i trade in multiples of 3 and i scale out at 15pips 30 pips and 45pips for my targets, so instead of having to enter 3 separate enrtys would it be possible to create a pop up box that you enter your order e.g. ENTRY STOP LIMIT 1 130.00 129.80 130.15 2 130.00 129.80 130.30 3 130.00 129.80 130.45 this would just make life easy and quicker when entering orders, not sure if it can be done but thanks anyway Alex M.

If you right click on the charts you go to ORDER ENTRY a box appears i need to modify that box or create a indicator to take 3 orders at 1 time allowing me also to enter a stop loss 3 times and a limit 3 times so that when i make a trade it will take profit at 3 different levels basically the trade will be on auto pilot. i can email you a script for exactly what i want but it is coded for MT4 would this be any help? if so can you provide an email i can send to.. thanks again Alex.

Hello,
I was trying this indicator but I do not manage to make it work. This is the error I get when trying to launch it : “An error occurred during the calculation of the indicator ‘CUSTOMCANDLES’. The error details: [string “CustomCandles.lua”]:234: [string “CustomCandles.lua”]:130: attempt to index field ‘open’ (a nil value).” I tried with different charts but without success.
May someone know why is that ?
Thank you very much.

Helloo mr apparentice
I was hoping if you can make a custome candle that marks when the candle body is close 5% from its high for a bull candle and 5% from its low for a bear candle on a daily and weekly and 4hr chart ?
Thank you in advance You’re a genius

Hello,
I tried again this indicator, and whatever I try, I cannot get it to work, and have this error. May someone know why it is happening ? Or could someone confirm that the indicator is working correctly on their platform ?
EDIT: if I try for example 120seconds charts on a 1 minute chart, it works. The issue occurs when I try with a number under 60 seconds charts (for example 30 seconds). How to proceed if I want to see 30 seconds chart ?
Thank you very much for your assistance :)
