Box Breakout Alert for MT4 and MT5

- Start date
- Watchers 4
Hi, Having downloaded and installed from here (the MT5 version). I find that there is no data displayed in the Data Window information box.
The buy and sell data is available in the MT4 version.
I have tried to "adjust" the code but unable to get the data visible.
I wonder if you could point me in the right direction in order to alter the code that would allow it to be displayed in the Data Window.
Just the indicator title is visible, but no data in the boxes.
Thank you in advance

Thank you so much, but regretfully I still do not get the data displayed.
I have had a look at the new code and it seems to be exactly the same as I already had installed.
I deleted the old files and added new ones then reloaded MT5
The Arrows is a test indicator that I added later just to show you the data window for that indicator and the ASH indicator too.
I have also added the "old" box breakhout file and the new one just downloaded after this e-mail.
Yours Arthur.

Either you aren't downloading it or you aren't installing it from the newly downloaded file. The code should be different. The indicator's version should be shown as 1.01, and the downloaded archive file should be showing a commentary with that version and today's date.
Thank you for your help much appreciated, I have it now and working fine.
Perhaps I was a bit quick downloading and the webpage had not repopulated.
I dont seem to be able to find the indicator on your index page.
I had to navigate via a Google search.

Box Breakout Alert indicator has been updated to version 1.01:
- Added an input parameter to control the candle to check (previous or current).
- Added an input parameter to control the candle's price to check (Close or High/Low).
- Changed how colors and widths of arrows is set — it is now set via the Colors tab of the indicator's properties window instead of the input parameters.
- Changed how alerts are managed. Current candle alerts will be issues without any delays. Previous candle alerts are issued once per candle.
- Optimized the calculation process to avoid recalculating old candles.
- Completely refactored the source code.
