Full meter not showing

Hi Neil,

As a member of staff and long time member of the site, I'm well known by many members for a number of things!

Chief amongst these is that I admit I know next to nothing about the forex market and have never traded it. So, you can use me as a guinea pig. My interest in forex (and this thread) is that I'm sure if I can develop a better macro view of the market as a whole, it will inform my decisions about the one I like and trade: U.S. equity indices, primarily the Dow.


So, first forex newbie question from me: what is a 'forex strengthmeter' - how are you defining it and how does it help your trading?
Tim.

I have downloaded the indicators and am getting up and down arrows for the currencies but am not getting the coloured lines above/below zero.

hey there

I think we have pm'd on this now

but the answer will be to check the syntax setting

in the indicator you must tell it if you have special letters alongside the instrument (like EURUSDxxx)

you must put the xxx in the settings or it doesn't understand :smart:
