This thread is a place to share and support my FREE PINS and other FREE trading tools. Please: No commercial activity or spamming.

FAQ
What is a PIN?
PIN is short for plug-in and is a special type of indicator that uses MT4 Global Variables to send signals to trading dashboards and other expert advisors.
An example of a trading dashboard is Dashboard EAX by aeseme. Another EA that will work with pins is TDesk.

How do I use a PIN?
Before trying to use these PINS please read the Dashboard EAX thread and ensure you have the dashboard correctly installed and working.

How do I use Dashboard EAX?
If you have questions about Dashboard EAX, search the Dashboard EAX thread first. I'll wager your question has already been answered. If not, please ask your questions in that thread, as they are off-topic here and I won't answer them.

Do you have any other PINS or tools that are not listed here?
YES! I have made quite a few PINs that are not listed here yet. Take a look on my blog: jagzfx(dot)com.
Also, Google "jagzfx" and you will find stuff I have written about my successes and failures with PAMM Portfolios, EAs I have tested, stats on my trading accounts, and other stuff like.

Why does a PIN keep freezing?
Please read Post #815

Do your PINs expire?
No. There are no expiry dates in my FREE PINs.
Sometimes, updates to MT4 can cause a PIN to stop working, but that is a different issue.

How much do your PINS cost, can I use them on live accounts?
My FREE PINs are non-commercial and free to use on demo and live accounts - but you use them live at your own risk!
I cannot stress how important it is to test a strategy AND the tools before trading live.

How do I backtest a PIN / Strategy?
You can't! MT4 strategy tester does not have the functionality to test multicurrency tools such as EAX and PINS. You will need to manually backtest your theory using charts and indicators and then test your setup on a demo account. Don't be tempted to go live without months of testing - you will lose money!

Will you make me a PIN?
Maybe, but definitely not if you are lazy! Here are some things to consider before asking.

  1. Don't ask me do make a new PIN which is very similar to one that already exists or does the same thing as one of the EAX modules. For newbies, make sure you understand what the different types of indicators do (trend, momentum, volatility, volume, etc.) and which PINS fall into each category. Robust strategies first need a balanced set of indicators drawn from different groups. If your strategy uses PINs that are all from the same category, then I am quite confident it won't be robust.
  2. Similarly, is this a suitable indicator for trading forex? Many indicators were written decades ago for the stock market and many of the assumptions made do not apply to forex. In fact, many of the assumptions do not work for stocks either! Just because some self-proclaimed guru is trying to convince you the RSI is a good reversal indicator does not mean it is. Do yourself a favour and watch this.
  3. No repainting indicators! I have made a few of these in the past and they have all turned out to be a waste of (my) time! What use is a car speedometer that tells you exceeded the speed limit, but only after you got the speeding ticket!? Using PINs for trading is, by definition, technical trading and needs consistent indicators. If you are not sure if your new favourite indicator repaints then test it using the MT4 strategy tester. There are also plenty of YouTube vids explaining how to do this.
  4. No buggy indicators. If your indicator keeps crashing or will not run in the strategy tester (e.g. array out of range) then it's lazily written and you shouldn't use it. Ask the author to fix it or find one that works correctly.
  5. Explain your strategy, I don't have ESP! Please explain how you will use the PIN in trading. What timeframes? What constitutes a signal? What other PINs/EAX modules will you use it with? If you explain what you are trying to achieve there is more change that I get the PIN correct first time. I don't have the time to keep making changes.
  6. I need the mq4 code. Yes, you can wrap a PIN around an indicator ex4 file but it's a very crappy way to do it! It can result in very slow, very resource-heavy PINs that slow down MT4, especially with MTF PINs. With the mq4 file I can: 1) extract just the code that performs the calculation 2) check that the code is not buggy 3) optimise the code to work efficiently for multiple pairs and timeframes.

JAGZFX_TRAILING_STOP
PIN for Dashboard EAX.

See this post for the original concept.

Change Log
v1.03: 15 Jan 2018
New Setting: Trail From Breakeven. True, the trail waits for profit on the pair, before trailing the price. False, the trail starts immediately based on the open price of the first trade for that pair. (Thanks to lifehunt3r for the idea).
v1.03b: 16 Jan 2018
Fixed Issue: TLock Global not being set immediately in Trail from Start mode (Trail From Breakeven=false]

Jagz,

Done testing PSAR - all good,thank you. .

Suggestion: An option to have the PIN signal the exit for (n) amount of seconds. I've missed some stops due to having no connection (charts not updating due to poor internet) in that split second when the PIN fires.

ATR test is next. I'm curious as to what algorithm/indicator is used in your/the original Universal trailer regarding the ATR SL. Most of the indicators allow for a factor/multiplier (as can be seen in indicators like this mq4). First question is if would be possible to include such a multiplier? Alternatively, could you point me to an ATR indi that I can put on my charts to compare to the PIN_TRAILING_STOP's signals.

Thanks for the feedback, good to know we are getting somewhere.

For ATR mode I simply use the MQL4 built iATR function. So for the Daily ATR averaged over 20 days you would set: Indicator Timeframe=1 day; ATR mode period=20. It would certainly be possible to include a multiplier, I presume this would be a decimal so you can have values such as 0.5 x ATR, etc?

Here is basic (levels on chart) ATR. https://www.mql5.com/en/code/8753

Edit: I'll also look into making the PIN signal persist for (n) seconds. Or once set the signal is set, could have stay set until the trades are closed?

If you go the the Dashboard EAX thread, and scroll to the bottom of post 1, you will find of my older PINS (plus plenty from others).
https://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=568595

I will add them here eventually, plus I have some completely new ideas in the pipeline. One in testing now which hopefully I will be able to share at the weekend.

JagzFX_EAX_ADX PIN for Dashboard EAX

This is a simple ADX cross/direction PIN. You might find this helpful to confirm for trend emergence (using the DI cross), or to confirm iF the market is trending rather than ranging (i.e above threshold).

Yes, that is what the multiplier does. The indi that I referred to in the above post is an mq4, if you want to have a look at the code.

Regarding the amount of time the signal fires: maybe a dropdown with options - default (current standard setting as is), or signal fires till close of next candle (M1, M5, M15, etc), or (n) amount of seconds.
