Hello,
I learn and test the way to use fibo clusters in my trading. I like the Carolyn Boroden style fibo cluster drawing, but very confusing in metatrader, that I can't delete the unnecessary lines.
So I made a small tools, what usefull for this: fast drawing and erasing levels on MT4 and MT5. I'm not mql programmer, so not to sophisticated the code, feel free to use or modify, and if there is better tool, please share here.

Great start - thanks for sharing....
thank You
Nice Tool
A good trader follows his rules, but great trader knows when to break them
Nice- I learned this method from Mark Braun- I believe he was a student of Carolyn
I'm happy, if You find this tool useful
I don't know Mark, I'll check his method!
First post updated, some error fixed on both versions.
For MT4 version, i added keyboard events: press D for draw, press E for change the erase mode on/off, and O for switch to extension mode.
You'll find it in the first post.

Brilliant work, thank you very much!

Quick question, I had a look at the code, but could not find how to customise retracements and extensions values. Can you please help me out?

{quote} Brilliant work, thank you very much! Quick question, I had a look at the code, but could not find how to customise retracements and extensions values. Can you please help me out?
Thank You, jakucha! Sorry for the late answer.
So, in the beginning of the code there is variables, which contains the levels, and their colors:

string fiboLevels = "0,23.6,38.2,50.0,61.8,78.6,100.0,127.2,161.8";
string fiboAPPLevels = "61.8,100.0,161.8";

color fiboColors[] = {clrGray,clrGray,clrGray,clrBlue,clrGreen,clrRed,clrGray,clrPurple,clrGreen,clrGreen,clrGray,clrGray,clrGray,clrGray,clrGray};
color fiboAPPColors[] = {clrPink,clrOrange,clrPink,clrGray,clrGray,clrGray,clrGray,clrGray,clrGray,clrGray,clrGray,clrGray};

the levels are comma separated string: 0,23.6,38.2 etc...
That is mean, the first level is 0%, second is 23.6%, third is 38.2 etc. In the fiboColors variable are the connected colors: for 0% the color is clrGray, the second 23.6 is clrGray too, and so on.

If You change the fiboColors variable :
color fiboColors[] = {clrBlue,clrPink,clrGray,clrBlue,clrGreen,clrRed,clrGray,clrPurple,clrGreen,clrGreen,clrGray,clrGray,clrGray,clrGray,clrGray};

then the 0% should be blue, the 23.6 sould be Pink and so on.

In this way, You can customize the fiboAPP levels and colors too.

If you are into fibos, buy the Dynamic Trade software, the one Carolyn uses. By far the best, plus tons of fibo time tools...A couple of Fibonacci lines wonīt take you far..I had someone program an Indi for me years ago, that downloads the data from Metatrader, so you can open the charts in DT. I can share that for free.

Hello Cuchuflito, DT is the best, and Caroline and Robert Miner are my favorite traders, but DT software is too expensive for me, I don't have 1k for the software...
So this is, why I try to develop similar tools on MT4/MT5.
Do You use DT? Also I planed to develop some fibo time projection tools too on MT4.
I definitely use DT, actually have 2 licenses, on 2 PCs (the second one is way cheaper). The advantage of buying the software is that you can access loads of Miner's tutorials, on how to use the software, Fibos on Price, and Fibos on time. Dt has some unequaled Time routines: Time Rythm Zone, Time Bands, Dynamic Time Projections, Time counts, Fibonacci Time Blitz. You wonīt find those elsewhere.
Have a look at this weekly USDMXN chart.
The yellow box on top was calculated weeks in advance, using all the time routines I mentioned. It is just a time square. Granted it is a 3 week period.BUT, I wait till the oscillator is OB on that time span, THEN go to a lower time frame ( I trade 12 Hour charts), and there, calculate price targets with Fibonacci price tools. My last filter is DIVERGENCE, then I will add many entries (thatīs a different story), until I reach the opposite time box, again on the weekly chart.
60 % winners, and the winners, cause I scale in (never scale-out), give me fat winners, and thin losers.
The secret of trading is to keep your winners big and looser small right?
Iīm sure you can afford 900 bucks for the software. Any cab driver has to invest in a car, a smartphone, a Navi...etc...
Anyway, all the best. (Btw. Carolyn is good, read her book, but just a student of Miner, like comparing a standard soccer player with Messi).

Thank You very much for Your reply, I promis, I'll consider to buy the DT. I was subscribed on DT Report 3 months long, I readed his book, and I follow Roberts Youtube Channel but I can't pass to my trading style well. But I learned tons of valuable things!
Hi Cuchifluto. I am going to buy DT.

Above, you stated that you . ''had someone program an Indi for me years ago, that downloads the data from Metatrader, so you can open the charts in DT. I can share that for free.''

Would you help me with this so that I can download the data from metatrader?
