Need help to display up value at the top of the candle and down value beneath the candle

New comment
 

Hi All

Can someone help me with the following indicator please. It counts the amount of pips the price goes up and the amount the price goes down. I've done that part but i can't work out how to display the value above and below the candles. The font size doesn't matter.

I want the pip count of each candle above and below the candle and every candle must start from zero again.

Thanks in advance if someone can help me.

Help you with what? You haven't stated a problem, you stated a want.

  1. You are creating two labels — you are not creating multiple text objects above or below candles. Where is your loop? Where do you create one object per bar?

  2. Why are you remembering the Bid? Instead, the distance is the candle close minus open.

  3. Don't hard code constants. Ten thousand is only correct on non-JPY pairs.

    Unless you manually adjust your SL/TP for each separate symbol, using Point means code breaks on 4 digit brokers, exotics (e.g. USDZAR where spread is over 500 points), and metals. Compute what a PIP is and use it, not points.
