Part of the forward-testing process is to determine what currency pairs this system best applies to. Try GBPUSD H4 and USDCHF H1 to start. If you find any other pairs and time frames that are suitable for this system, feel free to post them on this thread.

I downloaded from Message #1 the updated May 7th TSS.zip file which included the TSSv1.0.mq4 indicator.
ITEM #1 (Bug):
There is a typo in the file which results in the lack of any "BUY" Alarm signals. Although the Buy Arrow does appear, there is no corresponding popup alarm. In contrast, the "SELL" alarm signals work just fine.

Hi pips4life, great thanks for finding and fixing those bugs. Jam has made the changes and I now have the file ready for posting as TSSv1.1. I sent jam an e-mail regarding the rev number and date that I have added to keep things straight. The source looks pretty ratty but as long as it works well that's all that counts now.
It could be cleaned up at a later date. Thanks again and happy pips to you.
Great Job.....Pardon me for asking but what is the updated indicator and does it still have bugs in it or is it completely fixed.
Many thanks,
Billser
Don't worry, the bugs have been fixed by pips4life and incorporated by jam and posted by yours truly via the help of a mod. Look for TSSv1.1 on post #1 soon. It was e-mailed to the Mod to-day May 8 2007 3:20 est, p.m..
Wish I would have seen this thread earlier. Here is a few indicators from codersguru that would have done it. The first is XPMA and the second is XPMA15 which has a few types of extra MA's modded in. There is also an EA built for ONE MA from XPMA, use any settings. Search TSD for this indicator. I also have an EA that uses multiple XPMA'S of any size type or whatever, based on crossing or direction. I am not going to post that because it takes lengthy instructions to set it right. Go to the TSD forums and search for Multixpma and you will find it. I need to publish the source, and I will do that there later.
Buy arrow just appeared on GBPJPY and I got the text message about a minute later. Looks good!
Edit: Just noticed the pop up alert says TSS v1.0 while the indicator that is loaded is TSS v1.1.

Oops I missed that, I'll change all occurrencies of 1.0 to 1.1. Fear not though you are using 1.1 if the file name is v1.1, its just the Alert msgs I forgot to change.
I'll also ask Antra to change the name of the zip folder to TSSv1.1.zip
Thanks C.E.O., you have done a great job sharing your indicators with this forum and it is sincerely appreciated.

Thanks WH, Seems like I have planted the seed but it is the other contributors who deserve your vote.
Seems like H4 is shaping on being the best TF to trade with this indicator. I don't know why but that's what preliminary results show. Frankly I am not too concerned about TF's, as long as I make profits; big profits and small losses if any.
I just sent the latest to Antra at 11:55 pm est to-day and the zip folder should be named TSSv1_1.zip. I have dispensed with the period 1.1 for software reasons (doesn't work). Good luck testing!
No errors in the compile, I changed the color to Red, exited and restarted MT4, even removed and loaded sucessfully according to the journal. Black background. Also tried changing the color parameter.

This indicator look very promising
P.S.
All the trades were based on a 4 hr chart

Would you mind sharing your thoughts in establishing Stop Loss and Take Profit levels when using this indicator. Input from everyone else is also appreciated.
To change the clock colour, bring up the MT4 Editor and open the Candle Time file. Go to the line number and column shown in the attachment and you can change the colour, font and size of the display. Re-compile and you're in business. Colours are the standard colours and the name must be upper case as first letter the rest lower case.
Cheers

THANKS FOR YOUR REPLY. I WAS NOT ABLE TO GET IT TO WORK.
I AM NOT A PROGRAMMER. I ONLY WORK WITH WHAT IS AVAILABLE IN POST NUMBER ONE.

I too have problems with Candletime (and have since the beginning) getting it to display where I can see it. It tends to draw way too far to the right, so far that it cannot be seen at all! Even if I click on the MT4 Offset button for the chart, which shifts the bars left and displays a little more blank space to the right, the Candletime is still even farther to the right. I'm lucky if I see just a tip of the Candletime arrow. The only way I can see it fully is to click "-" to zoom out and then briefly I will see it, until the next tick which then auto-adjusts the window and bars again.
Any ideas? The problem, for me at least, is not the color but where it displays.
I'm new to MT4, and I'd also like to change some of the default colors for ALL my charts rather than one at a time. For example, I prefer green for rising bars rather than black, and red for falling bars rather than white. Maybe the answer is obvious in the documentation when I get around to it, but I haven't searched for it yet.
