As the name suggests, this little indicator can save a screenshot of a chart (the chart the indicator is applied to) to a user selected folder. It can also upload the screenshot to https://www.bmcharts.com/ and copy the link to the clipboard.
And it can even post to BMT.
It works with a little button on the chart(see picture), a button on the toolbar or with the hotkey Alt+P (this can be changed in line 160 of the code).
There are only two parameters to be entered:
the path to the folder NT shall save the screenshots to, default is C:\NTScreenshots and an option to either use the button or the hotkey.
The indicator can easily be applied to many charts without having to fear performance issues.
Changelog
Changelog archive can be found in the thread post#1
December 21 2012: v2.4
Fixed a bug where windows in front of chart got caught on the screenshot. Timer function will not work when chart is minimized.
December 29 2012: v2.5
Fixed a bug where window is not fitted on the screenshot.
January 1 2013: v2.6
Major update. Added a setting "Post". When you take a screenshot it opens a dialog where you have to specify the thread id and can add text. The screenshot will be taken right away, not when you press "Post". When you press "Post" it will be posted directly to BMT. For this to work you will have to enter your API key in the indicator settings dialog. It also has a checkbox so you can even select to post text without a screenshot.
January 1 2013: v2.7
Added the option to enter a default thread id. This is purely optional, if left blank it will show the same behaviour as before. If a default thread id is specified, it also can be overwritten manually when you make a post in case you want to post to a different thread than the default.
January 1 2013: v2.8
Multi-line posts now working.
January 2 2013: v2.9
The buttons show the methods now (text for taskbar buttons and color code for chart buttons).
Hot Key is now user selectable, so you can use different ones for different methods.
Bug fixes: post form will not maximize/minimize anymore and will be brought back to front when button is pressed again.

Probably has been done before...but anyways:
This indicator can toggle the grid line color to transparent (invisible) and back.
I made it switch colors so the price intervals stay the same as opposed to switching off the gridlines completely.
Toggling is done via toolbar button.
User settings allow to select horizontal, vertical or both gridlines.

This is an experimental indicator that can enter and exit live positions. Use entirely at your own risk and with extreme caution! You have been warned, so don't blame me! I will not accept liability for anything!
This indicator can enter a position with a market order when price crosses a selected line.
It can also exit a position on a second line.
These operations have NO OCO LOGIC, so when one is executed the other one will remain armed.
The account can be set manually or the account set in ChatTrader will be used.
For this indicator to work correctly you must not disable the ChartTrader! Hiding the ChartTrader is no problem.
All logic is held locally, so if you lose connection, it can and will not execute. So never use this without a second "backup stop" held at the exchange or broker! Otherwise you will have a naked position on disconnect!
An armed buy line will show up as green, a sell line as red and a stop line as magenta. They are also labeled. Once they become inactive (either executed or expired) they will change back color to their original color before they have been armed.
Lines expire when the line ends in the past.
The buttons also change color on arm/disarm.
To arm a line:
1. select the line
2. press either the "Mkt" or the "Stp" button on the toolbar
To disarm a line:
Either (while no line is selected) press the "Mkt" or the "Stp" button on the toolbar, depending on which you want to disarm.
Or delete the line.
To switch the armed line:
1. Disarm the old line.
2. Arm the new line.
Armed lines can be manipulated just as normal lines.
Please only download if you understand the risks of using such an indicator and accept that you will use it entirely at your own risk!
Please also note that this is version 1.0 and not extensively tested yet!
27. November 2012 v1.1
Now has a buy a sell and a stop button, so no confusion if a line sells or buys.
The bug with double entries should be gone too.
Added support to use buy@ask and sell@bid instead of market orders.
27. November 2012 v1.2
Fixed a bug where an error was thrown OnStartUp when starting the indicator without a connection, as there is no enabled account in that case (Account field greyed out in ChartTrader, even Sim101 not available)
04.Feb 2013 v1.3
Updated the strapping to ChartTrader.
Now has possibility to Buy/Sell Market, @Ask or @Bid.
Manual Account setting will affect all orders now.
12.Feb 2013 v1.4
Improved the handling of ChartTrader toggle, Button is now in the normal spot and the little "F" as well. If you use vvMiniTradePanel, please update that too.
13.Feb 2013 v1.5
Fixed bug that threw an error in OnTermination.
Standard VWAP study with alternating clouds. The clouds can be turned on or off in the inputs. The preset colors are for a light background but can be changed in the Global Settings as well as the VWAP line color.
December 10th, 2018 01:39 AM avall38486 Brilliant is not enough, genius may be more appropriate. Thank a million.
Would it work on an indicator ? ie in the lower panel, if the indicator crosses the trend line will it still trigger a t
rade ?
November 7th, 2018 06:50 AM romus Brilliant!
February 14th, 2016 07:55 AM mkoning Thanks vvhg
January 8th, 2015 10:46 AM Malthus Thanks. It would be perfect if it could send a market order when price "touches" the line instead of crossing it.
May 19th, 2015 01:11 PM abdunbar thanks, looking for example of an indicator opening a separate window.
February 28th, 2014 09:37 AM wxsim1 superb indicator! now hopefully it can be implemented with account groups in the near future
