To keep your scripting organized, 4XCharts has a way for you to add comments to your scripts so that they get ignored and are not part of the executable code. Using these will help you keep your thoughts organized and you quickly know what a specific section does.
There are two kinds of Comment Syntax and they both accomplish very different tasks.

Syntax 1:

// ...

Any content after // and on the same line as // is ignored by 4XCharts. // can comment only one line of script at a time.
Not only is this good for making notes along the way but you can also use it to isolate parts of the script. If you are having trouble with a script accomplishing what you want you can // a single line and see if that is the line creating the problem.

Syntax 2:

/* ... */

Any content between /* and */ is ignored by 4XCharts. In contrast to //, commenting using /* ... */ can cover many lines of script.

*Risk Disclaimer: Trading foreign exchange on margin carries a high level of risk, and may not be suitable for all investors. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to invest in foreign exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with foreign exchange trading, and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts.

Hypothetical versus Live Results: Always assume that results shown in articles on this blog are hypothetical results. If they are not hypothetical results, they will be clearly and un mistakenly identified as "live account" results. Otherwise all studies, script analysis, trading strategy analysis and other results are HYPOTHETICAL RESULTS and not traded on a live account.

** “Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown. In fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particularly trading program.

One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk. Variables such as the ability to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses as well as maintaining adequate liquidity are material points which can adversely affect actual real trading results.”
