A simple variant of one of the 214 variants in TrendMagic thread...

You can test the results after the 3-th colour change in the Vorticity indicator.
You can take the HG0001 colours and the TrendMagic for signal confirmations.

In the chart is to see that the live Vorticity has an other shape as the same indicator refreshed...

Thanks SwingMan for this EA. I've been using it on demo working pretty good. Just wondering if would be possible to add a stop loss and take profit option? Also, would like to try it in a live environment on a small micro account. Would it be possible to make so can change the lot size to .01. I tried changing it and would not take trades, when I changed it back to .1 lot size it immediately started taking trade. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge here.

Regards.

Have you tested the EA with the Strategy Tester, to see how it works?
Check the results with and without HG001 and TrendMagic, and please post us a short analyses.

If it is, then I can take responsibility to post a new version for you...
You need to know on what pairs is good to use the EA, otherwise you lose money.

- The lot size 0.01 is working for my broker.

Thanks SwingMan. Your right. I was demo testing on a broker that does not allow micro trading. (My bad). Just wish there was an added feature to set a stop loss and take profit. Thanks again.

With all due respect, lrathi (and I have immense admiration for your Technical Analysis and trading abilities .... and for SwingMan's outstanding Indicator programming skills, and humility) the answers are not in your posts.

And I am not a novice MT4 trader; I'm sure that the SolarWind_al Indicator that you recommend on this thread WILL NOT deliver the setup in your post #124, whatever parameters you (or I) input.

While waiting for your response to my reasonable and humble request, I have identified that 2 (two) Indicators - the second...
With your IT experience, I knew you were intelligent enough to work it out. It is a simple indicator and superimposing the same indicator is basic MT4 platform stuff ( This was an expectation from my end)

Thanks for your for the admiration of my technical analysis ability.

I have spent many an hour helping newbies on forums spelling out stepA, to stepB etc. I find this method of help not advantageous to traders. A bit self experimentation helps with their longer term learning.

Apologise if you did not approve.

There are many a thread to learn MT4 basics and forex 101. Threads like these assume this basic standard.

Hi lrathi. For the avoidance of doubt .....

You clearly missed my point. Your instruction was vague and wrong. Instead of advising me how to display the histogram format, you perversely hindered me by your incorrect assertion that the histogram layout can be achieved using the Solar Wind_al indicator and 'fiddling around' with the settings. You are wrong. Your 'help' just wasted my time.

The histogram layout cannot be displayed with that Indicator .... period ..... and yet you asserted that it could. You now assert that you knew that by misleading me I would find out how to achieve the layout in your post, and thereby you claim some credit .... that's nonsense. Your misleading 'guidance' played no part in the task apart from causing me to waste time 'fiddling around' with Input Settings, when no cocktail of settings on that Indicator would achieve the histogram display that you posted. I thought that you knew how to set up that chart. I suspect that you didn't (and still don't) know. It's difficult to understand why you didn't realise and admit that you couldn't in fact help.

The only knowledge that I gained from your 'assistance' was never to ask for your help again.

I hope you now understand clearly that your misleading advice did not help in any way, merely hindered. You can take no credit for your part. I shall not seek help from you again. Peace.

Regards, Richard.

Richard,

I am talking about the solarwind indicator on the thread which is called solarwind al. Please read and re-read my posts.

There were only 4 different INPUT settings to play around with on the ONE indicator from this thread. ONLY ONE solarwind version was placed on this thread.

Period=8 default
windings Up
wind DingDown
Arrows: False default

The get the histogram on this one and only indicator on the thread was to experiment with the arrows input=true.

Then to superimpose the ONE and only indicator ON THER THREAD to one window with one change of the input is all that was required. This is basic MT4 knowledge.

I did not mislead any of my instructions.....

Perhaps you did not read what I said very clearly.

From my side.... NO MIS -GUIDANCE..... LAck of interpretation from your side. SORRY!

This is what I get from newbies ... NOW you can see Why I am slowly refusing to help beginners, and concentrate on traders at the intermediate/advanced levels.

Happy trading Richard!

Thank you, lrathi. That's clearer now. You clearly knew how get the histogram with Solar Wind_al only. I thought (wrongly, as I now know) that another variant of Solar Wind was needed as well ..... to overlay Solar Wind_al to get the histogram effect.

I apologise for allowing my frustration to get the better of me in my last post, and for suspecting you of 'bluffing it out'.

Regards, Richard.

Apologies accepted Richard,

I never bluff, I am a person of integrity. I do encourage self learning and a tough teacher when it comes to promoting independant/ self reliance strategies. I am an older person with many a successful student with my attitude to learning.

Yes, I did know how to get the histogram from the same ONE & ONLY INDICATOR. I did suggest to you to experiment with all four INPUTS. This is not a big ask??? YOU only played with one INPUT Parameter and placed an image on the forum. Then you gave up?? What about the next three INPUTS?

Next, lesson.... What would happen if you changed the numbers of the wind DINGS.... TRY 108 and see......

Always experiment with all INPUTS... you will learn what the creator of the indicator had in mind when he wrote the variations......

My only advice be careful with this solarwind_al.... IT DOES REPAINT TOO!

I've been manually going over the gbp/usd and your right a simple 20 tp and sl based on 2 positive signals does seem do alright. Not sure about long term tho would have to modify the ea i think.

thanks

You need to know on what pairs is good to use the EA, otherwise you lose money.
I've been running the EA on my FXDD demo account since July 1, with both HG0001 and TrendMagic set to "true". The EA could be profitable if one can find optimal trading hours, i.e., running only two houlrs daily after the London opening, etc., rather than running 24/5. It is too early to tell what pairs work best, however.

If I knew how to upload files, I could post the detailed statement. The statement would speak for itself.

Is there a new version or updates available for the EA, please?

I tried, but I wasn't able to attach .htm file though I managed to attach .gif image.

I liked the results a lot. So I attampted to run the EA in a small live account. However, "only demo accounts" Alert would pop up. Could I still go ahead and use the EA in a live account? If not, I'd like to have a live version, please.

1st of all, thanks goes to Swingman for his hard work developing this trading tool and also in his generosity for sharing it with us all.

I have read the 1st post and also the PDF and I am still not able to get the dashboard going. Does anyone have any suggestions. I will try and post the chart.

Many thanks

Maybe have you not all indicators required (or under other names):
TrendMagic, HG0001a, TudorGirlVorticity.
Take the files from the .zip file and the posted TG Vorticity.

Also you have an Empty .tpl file for setting of properties.

Thanks for the reply SwingMan, I'll give it a try.

Sorry for my ignorance what do you mean by 'an Empty .tpl file for setting of properties'

Is a template for the empty DB, but I posted the file in an other thread...
Save this template in ..main program/templates, load this template, and then the DashBoard.

Thanks SwingMan, I think I am getting closer to the dashboard displayed by others.

Still don't know why it is not showing the rest of the information.

I have downloaded the indies on the 1st post, however I am not sure if I need them on the chart as well

The indis are not needed in the DashBoard chart. They are used in the program only to calculate the signals.
Try an other broker, maybe is this the cause... Also wait 1-2 minutes until the prices are refreshed, or restart the program.
