News events and market times on your char 2

Some sources I have used:

This article Displaying a News Calendar written by Slobodov Gleb and to read at http://articles.mql4.com/523 shows a way how to get data displayed on the chart. The file contains the description of writing a simple and convenient indicator displaying in a working area the main economic events from external Internet resources.

Another source I have used for this indicator is the indicator SimpleMarketInfo here to find http://codebase.mql4.com/7157 made by born2trade (2010.11.25). It shows upcoming news events 1 hour before and 30 minutes after event. It also shows active sessions etc. It gives a look to all news events. Changes on this. I did wanna have the possibillity to choose the kind of news I like to see, and when local time isn't brokertime there was not the correct displaying vertical lines on the chart. And some other changes...

Found the indicator Clockzv1_2 auto.mq4 ( http://forum.mql4.com/14052#91898) from "Jerome" This version made it possible for me to write down the coming DST times for the local markets also. ST/DST changes are unique to each timezone. To know when a market is open we have to know the right localtime...
