Unleash Your Timeframe Ideas
Flexi Bar is a live period converter for MT4. It generates an offline chart and lets you select any time frame, from a single second to weeks, with a single second resolution. So you can easily select not only charts with period of M10, H2 or H8, but you may have also 1-second, 5-second, M2, M90, actually any timeframe.
In addition, With the session switch on you can fix your timeframes to fit into trading sessions, like H4 starting with your broker session.
The quality of time display depends on a tick recording supply (ticks are recorded by all indicators from Omnia series).

Unique Features
What are additional features of Ovo offline generators?
- the generator is an indicator rather than a script or EA, which makes it more comfortable for deployment
- input setting is adjustable from multiple places: from the input dialogue, or from the entry box of an indicator sub-window, or from the offline chart using additional indicators (Omnia Remote, Omnia Auto Range). Settings on the offline chart makes the range switching as flexible as switching between timeframes.
- safe timeframe switching of the feed chart (no need for sacrificing the feed chart for a single timeframe)
- generator can detect and optionally break chart into trading sessions
- generator uses all available timeframes for the initial model, and it is not bound to a single selected timeframe
- when starting up, the indicator selects the chart starting anchor from the user-defined chart candles count
- a single indicator can serve multiple identical offline charts (a single chart ID in multiple windows)
- detects significant drop-outs in feed and rebuilds the offline chart after the feed updates
- displays consistent candle tick volume calibrated to regular timeframes, so you may rely on the tick volume in your analysis and EAs
- guards for a change of the feed server, so it updates the chart if you switch between accounts
- works properly with symbols having MQL unfriendly names (like “EURUSD..”, i.e. trailing double dot in the name)
- reports unexpected time gaps in the MT4 history, reports inconsistencies between symbol timeframes
- excludes phantom (no volume) ticks
- fixes incorrect input for a non-trivial instrument tick size
- can decrease chart refresh rate on demand
- indicator development is still open, you may expect fast fixes for new Metatrader builds

hi there:
great indicator, i try to use it on MT4 strategy tester, with visual mode enable. it seems the indicator is not work, it cannot load onto the chart. my MT4 is Oanda build 950.
is it possible to make it work on MT4 strategy tester visual mode? I believe may traders want this function.
cheers
simon
Helo Simon, the indicator refuses the tester environment. It needs multiple timeframes for its work and also running on the test data would damage live tick recordings.
hello please i want to tested but i s not working
You cannot test this indicator. It works only in regular charts.
Hello Bro !!
i want this indicator but i dont i have paypal
you can use neteller or skril ?
Hello Badr, in case you have not received the contact form reply, the Skrill option is available:
Send the Skrill payment to e-mail forex@ovo.cz, and append a note of what you request. You get the license as soon I can reach the computer.
Hi,
Great software for MT4! Especially when it comes to performance. Other similar software would always make MT4 sluggish during high volume trade periods.
However, I have a question…
When I make a 2 hour chart (7200 seconds) I notice that in EURUSD, GBPUSD and USDCAD the candles end on an even number (2pm, 4pm, 6pm etc.) But for the USDJPY the candles end on an odd number (1pm, 3pm, 5pm etc.)
Also When I make a 3 hour chart (10800 seconds) I notice that in EURUSD, GBPUSD and USDJPY the candles end at 1, 4, 7 and 10 am/pm. But for USDCAD the candles end at 3, 6, 9 and 12 am/pm.
Is there anyway this can be changed? I’d like all my 2 hours and 3 hours charts to end at the same time.
Regards,
Joel
The starting anchor is determined by the weekend gap (at least I hope so). Please check the H1 starting time of the week, where the charts start. There might be summer time change issues, which could mix the things up.
So as Joel asked, are we able to the change this, Im having the same thing on a 10 min chart, 10:05. 10:15 etc instead of 10:00, 10:10
Hello,
Is it possible to import Flexi Bar data into Strategyquant use? How?
Hello Perry, none of the offline chart generators is intended for SQ. I have in plans for the near future to release the FXT Builder for the Flexi, which could be used with the SQ. However I have no direct contact with them, so I do not promise it will be compatible for ever.
can u give six months license for flexibar and if so cost of the same which will be used for non commercial observation studies
Hello ksk, currently there is no renting system implemented in my scripts. I may think about it, it might be a good idea.
Hello, ive got a question.
If i open a 5 second chart using your flexi bar software, will it have data history or will it only start from the time ive opened the chart?. For example, say i open a 5 second chart at 1 pm on a wednesday, will i be able to see 6am data history of that same Wednesday and even going to Mondays data if i want?
Thanks
Nevermind, ive used the free trial to check, thanks
If at least one of the indicators is running, then you would have tick data for that symbol recorded. In such case, any additional indicator for the symbol would use those tick data any time later.
If no ticks record is found for the time, then it linearly approximates the chart from MT4 natural timeframes.
Hi
Any way to make the bars to start at a time different from the broker?
My broker closes the daily bars at 10pm local time, I’d like them to close at 7pm local time.
thanks
Gerard
Currently there is only option to start after the 30 minute gap with Session parameter set on.
Having trouble with profiles missing charts and mixing currency pair when flipping through my profiles.
Can someone please help with this?
TBH, I did not understand what you described.
Hello,
I bought already the range bar indicator and I am very pleased with it. Now I need something which let me change the starting hour from my 4 hour candle.
Since the H4 candle my broker shows me because of the server time is not the NY Close H4 candle. Is there an indicator which let me create my own H4 candle with a selected start and end time?
Thanks
Thomas
I am sorry, only the session control can reset the starting time periodically.
What do you mean? Do you mean only the broker can change the starting time of the H4 candle?
I asked them already. They said I need a tool to create an offline chart and I need to set the starting time of the candle by myself…
I meant that the Session switch aligned the H4 (or any) with the session start, but there was no other timing option. The broker is right, but I did not encounter such a tool myself.
Hi
How to get the current flexible linear price ?
Hello John, I have no idea what the current flexible price means. The indicator enables flexible candle timeframes.

Hi Milan, i just bought the Flexi-Bars key license few hours ago via paypal method, do you know how much time it takes to get the email with the key? Thanks in advance, excelent tools for trading 100/100. Quant student, algorithmic pro trader. Gastón
I am looking for similar to the above but with pure tick data to user specified number of ticks. Do you do this at all?
Regards
Katie
Hi Milan, I’m currently testing the indicator. However, offline chart creates bars that look like renko bars (with no wick at all). I compared the offline chart (h2 for example) with the h2 chart in the MT5 version of the same broker. The h2 chart in MT5 is much clearer and its bars have wicks. What seems to be the problem?
HI,
It’s possible an Microseconds TF..?
Technically it is not possible to go under a single second. Consider using the tick chart.
Does this indicator send ticks to the indicators loaded on it? I have an indicator that needs ticks to work, I have already tried a couple of free solution and they don´t sent ticks to the offline charts. Regards
If you want to be sure, you should install it and use it within the trial period. Unfortunately all the indicators attached to the offline chart react with both the tick and refresh events (unlike EAs), and trigger the OnTick handler twice.
Installed as per video, simple enough. Works well has nice features…However some indicators are not working on unique time frame. I have some free period converts and they dont have this issue, i thought your product would be better, run lower on cpu and allow EA and other indicators to work, now this issue, how can i communicate or share the indicator?
Do you have a text tutorial teaching you how to use these indicators? I don’t speak English, the video didn’t help me much.
