Jagz,

I have an idea for a very simple indicator, based on my observing EAX and PINS for some years now.

One thing we all know: with dashboard trading, it is only worth trading when the market is trending. How do we know when the market is trending, without having all the charts open?

MTF PINS start aligning.

With time, you can just have a quick glance at your PINS to see how “orderly” or “all over the place” they are, and it tells you immediately if it’s a trending market, or not. When PINS start aligning, you have an increase in the NUMBER of MTF PINs. So when the market is trending/expanding, you have an increase in MTF PIN count, and vice versa when the market is contracting.

My suggestion is a simple PIN Counter: a small visual display of how many PINs there are of a specific PIN number at any given time, and an alarm when it exceeds a certain number.

See attached image below. The idea is to have a small indicator that gives us a little box on the screen that tells us how many PINs there are of a specific PIN number/column.

Inputs would typically be:
PIN to read
X position
Y position
PIN Count that will trigger alarm
Alarm/email options

With this PIN Counter, we will basically have an indicator with an alarm for when the market is trending.

I think such a PIN Counter will work very well with csDash - if the market is cooking, you always get an increase in the csDash PIN counts... Also MADdash and all MUX MTF combinations…

What do y’all think?

Cheers,

Lee

Hi JagzFX. Thanks for your hard work with the PINS
Would it be possible for you to let the inputs be visible in the Volumes PIN, as in the indicator Better Volume?
I have tried to get same signals as "PVSRA Volumes Set" indicator, and this is very close. I need the Lookback setting and maybe Period setting.

Hi Lee, great to hear from you!

Just to make sure I understand it correctly. I'm assuming we are tracking PIN #9 and have a 'signal count threshold' set to 5. So if we get at least 5 signals of any combinations of long/short, we would get an alert? Is that correct?

Regards
Jagz

Hi,

I have made the lookback parameter available in the PIN.

Note that in the Better Volume indicator, the MA setting does not affect the generation of the impulse bars, it is purely used to plot the Volume MA line on the chart. However, I assume that you wish to use the MA to filter our low-volume impulse signals?

I have another PIN that just deals with volume levels, and you can use that in combination with this PIN and a MUX to provide a filtered signal. See next post for Volume MA PIN.

Volume MA PIN v1.00

I developed this PIN to help in detecting if the volume is increasing or decreasing. For example, you may only want to trade when the volume is building, not when it is fading.

A good way to understand how this PIN works is to first add the Volumes Indicator to a chart and then drag two moving averages onto the Volume window. Adjust the MAs to different values and you should get something like this:

Now, it is important to understand that this PIN gives a trade/no-trade signal and not a buy/sell signal: you cannot connect this PIN directly to EAX.
Instead, you need to use it with my PIN Multiplexer (MUX) as a filter for other signals. Set a channel on the MUX to mode A (Allow) and send the Volume MA to that channel. Connect your other PINs to the MUX and their signals will now be filtered by the volume.

If you want a very responsive signal, e.g. for impulse trading, set the Fast MA to a slow value, such as 1, and the Slow MA to a higher value such as 20.

Hi Jagz,

I've stumbled across coding this requested pin to Lee. I made mistake somewhere which is related to ArraySize I guess but could not figure out where I lack understanding. I have a draft code if you wish to look at it - can drop it through pm as a link to my cloud storage. Just let me know.

Hi, wow LifeHunt3r.

Today I was chatting with Leviticus83 and asking for something similar like your idea. Jagzuk ,what I am asking is the following modification in your JagzFX_EAX_MUX_v1.01 indicator.

I need the Jag MUX to have the option to filter if majority of pairs inside have 1 or 2. Let say I have 7 pairs and some show SELL, others BUY. If I set this option with 5 maximum as soon as any 5 are SELL or BUY they will trigger.

Note: the rest of the options now in the indicator will be the same as now.

In the attached picture will OUTPUT only those 5 pairs with 1, the another 2 showing SELL will OUTPUT 0

Jagz,

Thanx for your time! Ultimately the idea is to have an on-screen display of the selected PIN count. In this example, PIN 9 is tracked, so firstly we have a basic indicator with an on-screen display of PIN 9 and the current number of signals under PIN 9 (regardless of alert).

In my request, I posted an image with a little box with Read PIN and Count. The box in the image wasn't to provide info, the idea is that the box IS the indicator. So there is a little box on the screen that constantly (in real time) gives you an indication of the number of signals you have under PIN 9. The alert is almost an optional extra: should the number of signals under PIN 9 reach (for example 12), you will be alerted. Using 12 as an example, I would not receive a signal from my image example as I only have 5 signals, but the on-screen indi would still show I have 5 signals under PIN 9.

Hope this helps!

Cheers

Lee

Hi,

(A)llow mode only filters another signal, so you also need to have a (N)ormal channel with a constant directional signal, e.g. a trend signal.

Hope that explains it.

{quote} Please what Fast/Slow for any TF ??
The PIN is an oscillator: it compares two moving averages (MA) of the volume, Fast (shorter period) and Slow (longer period).
When the volume is rising, the FAST MA moves above the Slow MA and this creates the Allow signal which can be used by the MUX PIN to turn other signals on or off.
You need to set the MAs to your own requirements. Do some experiments with the MT4 Volumes indicator, drag two moving averages (SMA) onto the chart and adjust their periods.

I suspect, by the time I send this reply you have noticed signals reappear?

However, to explain:

(1) With low values for the Fast MA, there are times when this will happen (e.g. when volumes are declining across the board after a period on intense trading),
(2) This will occur more frequently if you are using the Signal Shift set to Current Bar. Remember that a volume bar opens at zero, so this will skew the averages down at the beginning of each bar.

I see a problem and it is not really the volume indicator. Please correct only 1 average line if the volume is larger than the average value, you can consider buying or selling. Thank you for sharing God bless your family well!
