Here’s what you need to do to install CSM 3.0, if you do not have a previous version installed, you can start on to Step 2.
Step 1: Uninstall previous versions of CSM. Go to Windows –> Settings –> Control Panel –> Program & Features –> Uninstall “Newsprofiteer”
Step 2: Download CSM 3.0 by going to the Download Page, then save the file Currency+Strength+Meter.msi on your desktop (or anywhere you want)
Step 3: Double Click on the meter and it will Launch a Registration Screen, please enter your information and then click on “Register Your Account”:
That’s it, it should work flawlessly.
Thanks,
Henry

Hi Henry,
Many thanks for your Currency Strength Meter it is an excellent tool to add to my forex trading.
One suggestion – will it be possible to sort the order of the strength of the currencies – ie if I wanted the strongest on the left and the weakest on the right will this be possible in later versions ?
I like the colour coding as it gives a quick visual check of what is happening
Thanks for all your work and encouragement
At this moment no, but hopefully in the future versions we’ll plan for that.
RED= Strong
Orange = Slightly Strong
Yellow = Normal
Blue = Weak
pls does the figures in the meter changes once in a day or it changes as the market changes?
I am iranian trader.
Thank you for all , my dear henry.
long live henry
come on somebody i really need some help to get my csm up & running, please!!!!!!!!!!!
If after following the steps exactly and you still can’t get it running, just wait for the next version in 5 days.
Thanks.
GOD JOB
but, works for me only: USD, EUR and GBP, but do not these currencies: CHF, CAD, AUD, JPY, NZD. I ask for advice if you have someone with this already met?
make sure all your symbols are in the market watch. If you don’t allow all symbols, it won’t have enough data to show others.
still the same numbers this morning
also in case of more info needed the numbers that are posted in order are
5.10,0.00,2.30,6.00,9.00,2.30,9.00,0.00 which all are exactly the same as this morning at 4 am when i downloaded it wrong
ok, henry, i seem to be having the same problem as everyone else about csm not running, i’m local in alabama, i’m running my fxdd mt4 platform metatrader account, on a windows vista computer, i’ve downloaded the csm with my account open, i’ve set my dde server on, i’ve rebooted my computer, and unless none of the numbers have changed from this morning then its not working, any suggestions
Eng:
ALL for who it doesn’t work!!! If you have only zero and dark blue zones!!!
Replace region in windows options to the USA. In adjustments I have changed format and region to the USA.
just when I do it Meter start work.
Rus:
??? ? ???? ?? ????????!!! ?????????? ???? ? ????? ????!!!
??????? ?????? ? windows ?? ???. ? ?????????? ? ??????? ?????? ? ?????? ?? ???.
? ?????????? ??? ?????? ? ??? ??????.
PS: Forgive me if I have made mistake, for a long time I didn’t practise English language, in the core I am only read in English
On it has written in different languages in English and Russian.
Hi Henry and Mr. Moderator,
Having seen your Currency Meter, I have 1 question to confirm my guess, If it is right. They seem to be Colour Coded.
The Stongest / Best currency = RED,
Next Best currency = ORANGE,
Average / Not so Strong = YELLOW,
WEAK Currency = BLUE.
Can you please confirm,
Best Regards,
Haig
Hi Haig, the color provides with an easy first-glance view of the strength of each currency, while the number value will give you a more precise strength when comparing each currency.
Hi Henry, I just wanted to thank you for such a simple and effective tool. As you said, it works flawlessly.
Hi Henry,
I installed already with other MT4 platform and used the meter as reference with my live account at FXCM. The meter work very effective…. Thank you so much…. god bless you and your family….
Hi Henry,
I down load the meter but I can’t find the DDE server on my FXCM live account, please help. Also the meter didn’t change the details such as the level and color of the currency.
Thanks a lot,
God Bless
Cris
Hi Cris, the currency meter only works with Metatrader 4 platform. I believe FXCM does not have a MT4 platform. However, you can download and install a MT4 demo platform from any other broker just so you can use the meter.
I understand that FXCM (UK) got MT4 platform -powered by BT. You can apply for a demo account for trial first.
Thanks Henry, works great…….best regards n good luck.
Followed all the directions from the previous posts, IBFX live account; running XP 64;
added the \’m\’; works when IBFX closed, but as soon as I open IBFX, goes to blue numbers.
Steve
Hi Steve,
You will only need to add the ‘m’ if your currency pair names have the letter ‘m’ as suffix (ie. EURUSDm, GBPUSDm, etc…). As per my understanding IBFX mini accts. have the suffix m after the pair name, but IBFX standard accts. do not have a suffix in the pair name.
Hi,
Tried to install strength meter which seems to be just what I ‘ve been looking for to gain time in the morning.
It didn’t work. As plenty of other people, when I start it, I get for 2 seconds blank boxes, the one on the left is orange and then, all turn blue with zeros.
I respected your advices (DDE….) I tried it with three platforms (FXCM, IBFX and the FXDD one downloaded from your site. I did that on three of my computers with different OS (XP, Vista and 7).
I got all the time the same bloody result.
I’m a bit puzzled because for some it works…I spent around four hours on it with no success and I think I tried everything I could.
Any suggestion?
Best regards
Jerome, not sure if this helps, but just in case: make sure you have MT4 open and running, and that the “Enable DDE server” option in your MT4 (under Tools/Options menu and under Server tab) is ticked.
Also, make sure your MT4 broker doesn’t have an unconventional symbol such as EURUSDm. It you do see ‘m’, or ‘-’, or ‘FXF’, or anything after the pair, you need to check the box in your meter where it says “My broker…” and then a text box will show up, enter the m, or -, or FXF…
Perfect answer
Hi Henry
Having same problems as others, i cant get CSmeter to run with demo or live, just sits there with blue numbers not changing at all, done everything to install,do you have to install it to the mt4 directory like EAs or just in its own NP directory.started new demo enabled dde etc then restarted, just blue boxes.
Ok then make sure your provider doesn’t have an unconventional symbol such as EURUSDm. It you do see m, or -, or FXF, or anything after the pair, you need to check the box and enter that in the textarea below. There are 2 checkboxes on the meter, you need to check the 2nd one that says “My broker…” and then a textbox will show up, enter the m, or -, or FXF…
Hi Henry
Thanks Henry for the currency meter.I downloade it and it’s working with my MT4.My question is how do i use it or how does it work with regard to forex trading ?
thanks
watch the video.
Hi Henry!
Thanks for this tool. I had difficulties to set it up, but find the key in Gabe\’s comment. Thanks Gabe
Hi, Downloaded per your instruction, FXDD Broker, meter shows 5.10,0.00,2.30, 6.00, 9.00, 2.30, 9.00, 0.00 respectifully…
HENRY JUST CHANGED FROM MT4 DEMO with FXCM TO A LIVE ACCOUNT BUT YOUR METER DOES NOT WORK ALL THE SETTINGS ARE AS PREVIOUS
Do you have any advice, i have downloaded another demo and the meter works but not with the live account alone??
Peter, check the currency pair names in the ‘Market Watch’ window of your live MT4. If there are no letters after the currency pair names (ie. EURUSD), then you uncheck the option ‘My broker uses different quote’ in the meter. If it has extra characters next to the name (ie. EURUSDm), then you check the option and enter ‘m’ in the field provided.
Typing in the \"m\" got it working for me.
Running windows 7, IBFX live account.
Thanks Henry
Omg, where is my previous post?
Did you delete it?
hello Henry and thx for your works.
I have enabled DDE Server and i use windows XP not windows7.
I also watched the video on 7 best uses.
I have installed FXDD,alpari,broco,ibfx, enabled DDE server, shut down FXDD, then restarted FXDD, and then i start the meter. The meter does not work at all
It is not moving it is showing 0.00 with blue on all numbers.
Could you please help me?
Hi Henry,
Thanks for the great tool that you wrote for free distribution. Btw, i understood that the meter feed was from FXDD. I m using IBFX, just wondering if i can instruct to program to get feed from IBFX? i not sure if FXDD is exact same as IBFX. Thx.
Hi Henry,
like another guys says Currency Meter Not Work.
What we can do?
Thank you.
Regards.
-roman-
if your broker has nonstandard quotes, enter the characters after the standard symbol. EURUSD is standard. EURUSDFXF is nonstandard. The characters after standard symbol “FXF” are what you need to enter in the text box. Remember it is CaSe SeNsItIvE and you don’t have to enter the quotation marks (“).
There are 2 checkboxes, check the one that says “My Broker use…” and a textbox will appear, enter the FXF in textbox and the meter should work!
Henry
Hi Henry,
The currency meter is working thanks to you but how do i understand the colors…i.e blue,yellow,brown and red? how do i know which to pair?
Good job..
Thanks
Hi Henry,
please i’ve been able to download NPSETUP.EXE. Where can i download it?
Thank You
Hi!
For everybody, who has always get 0.00. Check the Windows regional settings. Try to use English settings, because program needs “.” as a decimal separator, not “,”. Or just change the decimal symbol at the Customize regional options.
Gabe
Henry did u say that the currency meter will not work with Windows 7. I have Windows 7……….hooked ot up with FXCM MT4 and it SEEMS to be working……….maybe i am just thinking that its working when it\’s not!
Hi Henry,
Greetz from Spain. I´m very happy with y´r tool. Great man. One little question: What is the meaning of the red background color? I see orange, yellow and blue (format of the number is a bit strange (for example 7,25.00) but it works for me on XP en MT4. Red gives also often a number format (for example 5.0)
Regards
Gerrit
To me it also does not work, same problem … I use Win Vista and Win 7
Hello Henry Yours CS are Awesome TYVM, i always use CS in smallest form, is there u can do to costumize a little

Should I just assume that this app just won’t work on my particular Windoze Piece of Crap?
I typed in both “M” and “m” (w/o the quotes) and then pressed “Enter” but nothing happens — the blue “0″s just sat there and nothing happened.
It works on my demo non-mini account, still doesn’t work on ‘live’. That should be some clue.
Nelson it should work on both. There is no difference as far as my program is where it gets the data.
Is IBFX a broker? I’m using IKON Royal.
I’m not sure what to do after I key in EURUSDm into the Broker Symbol field. I’ve tried hitting the Return key and nothing happens.
I think that the “quivering” is alternating between the cursor and hour-glass, like it’s attempting to respond to the server.
Thanks anyway, Henry!
Terry:
Instead of entering EURUSDm, you should enter “m” or “M”, (without the quotation marks).
Just 1 letter, try it out.
Oh, make sure IKON’s symbol is EURUSDm, confirm it in the market watch.
Henry
Don’t key in the EURUSD part simply enter the small letter m
hi
thanks for curency meter
Hi Henry,
I\’m also using Win XP but with IBFX. Same error as Terry, 0.00s all the way. Changing pair symbol to EURUSDm does not help. I believe the cursor quivers means the DDE server feed is trying to work with the meter in some way.
Nelson:
I have IBFX and I got it working perfectly.
DO this, instead of using your live account, create a demo account and leave everything the same. Enable DDE server, then restart IBFX. See if that makes the meter go. If it works, then use your live account and enter “m” or “M” (without the quotes) in the texbox and see if that will kick start the meter.
Henry
i tried using the currency strengthener and its not installing and i will like to know exactly how it can be used and installed.
I like to know what steps have you done exactly. Be detailed, by specific.
Henry
thanks Henry, i have install and it work. Now it is time for me to backtest my demo account!
I’m having the same problem. I’ve installed twice, made sure that the server DDE is enabled, rebooted and STILL get nothing but blue 0.00s. I also have noted that when I mouse over the app, the cursor quivers/shakes. BTW, I’m using Win XP.
Terry:
Did you try to use FXDD english version? Let me know after you tried with FXDD.
Henry
Henry
I tried it with my two friends on different machines and the same problem not working.
You are getting 0.0 after you have installed FXDD, enabled DDE server, shut down FXDD, then restarted FXDD, and then you start the meter. And the meter does not work at all? Is it simply not moving all is it showing 0.00 with blue on all numbers?
Henry
Please click link upstairs…You see that I use FXDD + enable DDE Server and i use XP I watched the video on 7 best uses so…take a moment and read me carefully I am not the one who write it is not working only 0 nothing else.I use this program on my real account so I want to know what this program do and my account is still safty.
Mario:
I am having a hard time understanding you. I have looked at the img you uploaded, seems that you’ve got it right. I installed a Polish version of FXDD and I got it to work the same way as English version. There is no problem on my end. I have no idea why it is not working on your machine as if DDE SERVER is enabled, my program should work. Can you try it on another machine just to double check? Let me know after you’ve done that. I am thinking this issue could be isolated with your machine.
Henry
So Henry I asked again what this program do? How it works everyone can see on link I send You it installed step by step Yours directions and do nothing 0.I will be glad to hear what is wrong.
Mario:
Please read my post on this program, I think it is self-explanatory. Also watch the video on 7 best uses if you have not done so already. Now in regard to your issue, did you enable DDE Server? Did you use FXDD? Do you have Windows 7? Because it doesn’t work with it.
Henry
Hello Henry!Sorry for that now I will be much specific http://img697.imageshack.us/img697/9853/nmfxdd.png
Not working it will be nice to know what this program do (trojan,back door?)
None of what you said, Mario.
Read the instructions or at least be specific with your issue. No one can help you unless you are specific.
