BreakOut_BOX_5_DailyCandles_OCbox_indicator_v1
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| BreakOut_BOX_5.mq4 |
//| hapalkos |
//| 2007.02.16 |
//| Code based on TIME1_modified.mq4 shown below |
//| posted to Forex Factory by glenn5t |
//| Concept of the break-out box form by Markj |
//| |
//| ++ modified so that rectangles do not overlay |
//| ++ this makes color selection more versatile |
//| +++ code consolidated to facilitate changes |
//| +++ changed Period B rectangle and added offset value |
//| +++ corrected error in bar selection code |
//| ++++ added ability to cross 00:00(nextDayA, nextDayB) |
//| ++++ added Unique ID to allow for multiple indicators |
//| ++++ added ability to delete rectangles specific to an indicator |
//|+++++ added Open/Close boxes and lines per Accrete |
//|+++++ added Alerts - can be used with Tesla's Alerter EA |
