Disliked{quote} Thank you so much for your attention, but I don't need that. I just need to modify this indicator so I have a 50% line of the previous day, week and month. That's it, that's all. {file}Ignored

Anybody could make bigger timescale indicator? Stumbled upon bigger price scale indicator but I really need bigger timescale. As now with bigger resoultions fonts looks tiny. Anybody found anything. Or at least crosshair which can have adjusted font size or modifiy this indicator:Please

That said, the (free market) indicator suggested by eess is very helpful in that it does offer a way to get an over-layed timescale with a bigger font (your main apparent request). Not only that, one could specify a different timezone offset which makes it easy to see, for example, your local timezone, or NY time, or that of a different broker, all very helpful to coordinate the times on a chart with other timezones.

I made some very minor improvements in this version. (Vertical lines are STYLE_DOT so they don't block the candle wicks; It now compiles without Warnings).
That said, for those interested in synchronized cursors, feel free to do your own search, but there are some advantages to one by Nicholishen. You only need to add the indicator to ONE chart, although you can do more than one if you want more than one chart to be the "master" that moves the crosshairs. Bindkey 't' toggles on/off the crosshairs. Double-clicks can create anchor points that do persistent measurements (in price & #bars) between points.
For more info, check out the 'nn_Crosshair_Sync_2_1_3.ex4' (or later) indicator by Nicholishen.
My guess is what you really need to do (for larger fonts) is simply to increase the Windows monitor "scale" factor from 100% to 125% or larger. This makes the price and time fonts bigger, along with everything else. Beware, however, that many indicators create labels of a particular font-size, and when you increase your monitor scale, those created objects grow in size -- UNLESS the code uses a simple routine to scale it appropriately! Here is the function that returns a scaled font-size:
Inserted Code
int fontSizeScaledByDPI(int fontSize) export
{
int _dpi= TerminalInfoInteger(TERMINAL_SCREEN_DPI);
if(_dpi==0) return(fontSize); // An unexpected error, but if it happens, prevent divide-by-zero
return( fontSize*96/_dpi); // Note, this truncates (down) to the next lowest integer
// Or, return( (int) MathRound( fontSize*96.0/_dpi)); // This rounds-up/down to the nearest integer than simple truncate (down)
} How do you change your Windows monitor scale?
Right click somewhere in blank space on your windows display, then choose "Display Settings", then change "Scale"
Here's what the font sizes are at 100% scale:
Here's what the slightly bigger price and time font sizes are at 125% scale:

{quote} Script 'FIFO_CloseAll_Options.mq4' is posted here. It can close by order type, so you just select the Pending orders. The fact that it's 'FIFO' compliant makes no difference if your broker does not enforce the USA FIFO rule, but if your broker enforces FIFO, the script/method may be required. The bigger question you should ask is why is your EA doing excessive orders? A bug of some sort. I've no interest in such grid EA's, so will leave others to explore if they...
The main reason of my post was to find the bug
. But again thanks for your time. Appreciate. IMHO this EA has great idea if implemented correctly.
Thanks for tips. Great to have somebody to help
Regarding 'nn_Crosshair_Sync_2_1_3.ex4'. This indi is great except when you try to analyse different chart you cannot do it without putting indi on. So it have to be added to every chart.
Tried alternate font sizer but it doeasnt work inside mt4 charts.
Thank You for showing scale soultion but tried scale in the past and it trims your resoultion meaning its just like magnifying mirror:
Here is 100% and 125%. So I suppose indi solution by ess is the best option.
By the way I have markings left from one idicator which I used in the past. Deleted all objects in the chart set clean chart as default and still have those stains visible on USDX chart. Is the only solution to make new mt4?

You could use 'F8' then if you're lucky, a simple change of the Color scheme to 'Green on black' might match the colors of your black charts, otherwise you'd have to change each color one-by-one to match whatever you want.
Or... I see some strange red & green shapes floating in space on the right-most-gray-background "USDX.a,M1" chart, which maybe you call "stains".
Obviously you would check with Ctrl+I to see the entire list of indicators, and remove anything unexpected.
They could be caused by some buffers on an indicator, so for each indicator in the list, double-click on each one, and review the "Colors" tab. Does any indicator have both red and green colors for 2 of the buffers? Try removing that indicator and see if the shapes disappear.
EDIT: Also check the regular "Inputs" tab and look for the red/green colors there, although they could be hard-coded and not in the list.
You could save a template for the chart as is, then one by one delete each indicator and see if the shapes are removed. (See below re. actual "objects").
When you use Ctrl+B to look at the list of objects, be sure to click on "List all", as in:
Objects can have "OBJPROP_HIDDEN" set to true, so they'll only show up on the list when "List all" is deliberately checked.
But you said you started with a "clean" chart, yet still see the shapes. That sounds very strange. I suppose you could have a corrupted history file, but it makes no sense if the shapes are red and green, which doesn't match your color scheme for the bars. If you do File->Open Data Folder, then navigate under "History" and then -- in your case -- "Pepperstone-Edge05", you should see something like USDX.a1.hst (the final "1" being for an M1 chart; I'm not sure you'd see the 1st period or some other character). I didn't test this, but I think if you exit MT4, delete the file, and restart it, the M1 history should download fresh from the server.
If you end up re-installing MT4, you could first use your existing MT4 to File->Profiles->Save as, then give it a name. Do "Open Data Folder" and keep that window open. Exit MT4 (this saves the profile for sure).
Then you copy that profile under Open Data Folder-> profiles, see your new profile name, select and copy it. Then in your new MT4, Open Data Folder in that one, go under profiles, and paste the profile there. Restart that MT4. Your profile should be one of the choices you can select. See if it restores all of your charts properly. If it still has the "stains", I've no idea what else to suggest.
Good luck.
Holy Moly Listing all fixed it. Never thought something could be hidden. Was fighting with it nearly a year! Thanks pips4life
Now I do not have to do mt4 again.
Gotta one more question. Do you know why from time to time mt4 when I open it, it is opening all menus (market watch navigator terminal etc)?
Have no clue why it does it. I have about 25 metatraders as you can see in the screenshot. Its a lot of windows to close
