FFCal Problems — Hi all: ngforexman is correct; FFCal is dependent on FF's XML page being updated correctly. Unfortunately, I cannot speak directly to the problem "Who Oh Why" had, because that data is no longer around to test, but when I just ...

I'm glad it is working. I just wanted to comment on the text you had quoted above, about setting the Timezone variable. If that is the version you have, you do not have the current one. Originally, there was indeed a timezone setting, but it was ...

Agus: No, you should not change any of those. FFCal detects that automatically. If it is off by an hour, chances are there is something wrong with detection of DST on your computer. Are you using XP? Does your computer set the time correctly when ...

Ical: You want to use FFCal in an EA to keep it out of trades around news time? I have programmed that into an EA or two, and seen it work, but I feel like FFCal is a little bit fickle, so I am not sure I would trust it 100%. I am quite busy these ...

Jerry: Thank you, and I am glad you like it. Unfortunately, I do not have much time these days to work on this. As far as your idea of displaying the results goes, it has been brought up int he past, and the folks at FF have said they were not yet ...

Server time cannot be modified in MT4. If FFCal is one hour off in its reports, then I would guess something is wrong with daylight savings time. Where are you? Does your computer switch to DST and back correctly and at the right date? FFCal just ...

FF Calendar Indicator for MT

FFCal calls a windows DLL to get the local timezone information it uses to be able to tell you how many minutes until news, your-time. I am not sure what you mean by "modify the GMT time to GMT+1 for the indicator to match with my MT". Your MT ...

Hello TurtleOnion: You said "non matching time variance"; I presume you simply mean that the times are not matching..(?) I have applied this to GBPJPY and AUDUSD as in your post, and am seeing correct times, with the exception (and keep in mind that ...

Are you using the latest version? If you edit the file, you should see a line like this near the top, in the comment block: // $Revision:: 14 $ I can tell you are not using version 14 because the text error you quoted has been changed. Please get a ...

FFCal Working! — Hello all: I realised after optimu's post (thanks again!) that he's right. I thought the time format changed, but it did not; the year format is 4 digits instead of two. I have written Merlin to tell him my error and ask that ...

Yes, well, donations may or may not be a factor in whether I do such a "stand alone" version. If it is, I'll do some kind of a poll to gauge interest. But if you want to send money, supermodels, a house, a ferrari, just let me know!

Date Change Issue — Hey there guys: Sorry I have not been attentive to this thread; I have too many other things going on. I appreciate that Optimu quickly created a solution for the date-change issue, but my solution was a bit different: ...

I had agreements with FFCal that they would not change it. That was the whole point. It must have been an accident. Does anyone have Merlin's address laying about? I seem to have lost it.
