The idea is as follows. There are two little steps that you need to shift to OnStartUp().

First Step: Setting the Variable ffNewsUrl

So you need to modify line 78, just to declare the variable at this stage with an empty string.

Second Step: Calling LoadNews()

This is shifted from Initialize() to OnStartUp(). You just need to delete the one row LoadNews() within the Initialize bracket.

To understand this: You can only load the news, once the variable is set. You only want to set the variable in OnStartUp() to avoid future crashes. So you can only load the news afterwards, that is in OnStartUp() as well.

You do not need to touch private void LoadNews().

you forgot third step:

change your avatar to something like that:

(no need for bears, the bull is just taking a break)

ps sorry for being

Some people just love to post bullshit (refers to your attachment).

Or did you want to say that you prefer spare ribs over a Texan steak?

Maybe you did not know that the bear is the heraldic animal of Berlin? Usually tourists are told that the name of Berlin is derived from the word B�r (bear) -> B�rlin -> Berlin. But this is slightly untrue. "Berl" is an old Slavonic word meaning swamp. Not so enticing, so better keep it secret.

However, the Margraviate of Brandenburg was founded by Albert, the Bear in 1157. It remained a principality of the Roman Holy Empire until 1806. In 1815 it became the Prussian Province of Brandenburg, which in turn became the center of the German Empire in 1871.

You may also interpret the bear in terms of current market sentiment, as the bear stands up and is running (see profile picture).

@Fat Tails,

Did all that - thanks.

Compiled the indi after editing it - no errors.

But now indi is not in drop down list when going to select indis in a chart. However it still is in NT 7 indi folder under My Documents.

Have tried exporting it and then re-importing, but it still will not appear for chart selection.

There is something basic I am missing.

If the indie is not in the dropdown list, there is a line in the code, which changed its name. Did you look for "EconNews"? Could also be that it uses no name and is the first in your list. If you cannot find it, just attach your indie here, so that I can have a look.

@Fat Tails

That would be it - now called Economic News.

Seems to be working, but there are no more news events today to really put it through it's paces, so I thought I would attach it anyway in case you spot something I have done wrong.

PS: I am on NT 7 v2

All care no responsibility. You may want to wait until Fat Tails checks it.

Also as said above there is no news to check it against, although it does display correctly and says ' There are no pending news events...'

Also not sure why it renamed itself in indi drop down box.

For the renaming see line 142. John had deleted the name, so it popped up without any name. I then had changed it back to its original name, which was "EconomicNews".

You can select any other name and insert in this line.

Harry, would you update this news indy to display the period of time blocked out on your chart, like the last version that JT had? I was using the last version JT had and it was great, but it bogged down computer significantly and NT said to delete it. I do have your fix called EconomicNews and like it but was wondering if you'd make this requested change. When you see it on the chart, blocked out, i.e. say 5 min. before and 5 min. after, with the red dashed vertical line at the news time...it was the ultimate! Thanks for all you do, gh
