This is an utility application which I wrote to keep me out of the markets when there is major news coming out (alarm sound). It is so damn easy to forget while you are heavily scalping the markets The application can download the latest news file (must be done at least once a week) from the DailyFx.com site and you can edit the news file to include your own news. You can minimize it to the system tray so it does not allocate your screen space. If you edit the news file remember to run the download again but answer "No" to the question so the app will use the existing/edited one.
How to install:
Create a folder and unzip the files to it.
How to run:
Run the NewsGuard.exe in the folder you just created (working directory must be the same). This is virus free !
Help:
Simple application needs a simple help ? I think you can understand easily the settings in this application. If you have something to ask please post a message in the support thread https://nexusfi.com/

Toggles session break lines on and off for a cleaner chart when doing your analysis / trading.
Thanks to others who had coded the toggle buttons for other indys. Uses unsupported code for NT. Nothing sinister just ChartControl stuff and PlotSessionBreaks.
I found this HA indicator on NT site. Colors HA candle wicks with the actual candle color. Also allows HA to be viewed as an indicator line and lets you choose the amount of smoothing.

January 26th, 2011 10:00 AM lawtan Thanks for this great tool! However, dailyfx csv file sometimes have the currency codes in small letters e.g. "usd" in
stead of "USD". In such case your program cannot capture the corresponding event in the alarm.

If you are baving trouble running this on Win7, try running NewsGuard as "administrator".
Go to the directory where you unzipped the newsguard application and other files.
Right click on the newsguard application icon.
Sselect "Send->". then to desktop (create shortcut).

May 14th, 2013 09:13 PM jmont1 Great item - any chance the future might also allow a selection to also show on the chart? I know there are other syste
ms that show on chart but do not want two indicators making swame calculation. THANKS!
