Hi, does anyone know of a MT4 indicator that allows you to impose a MA that does not fluctuate with the time frame? For instance if I wanted to see a 200 day EMA on a 30min chart.

Cheers

I've been practicing my MLQ4 and this was a lot like another MTF indicator I wrote for another guy, looks like MTF indicators aren't too hard to make after your first one -- here you go. :-)

Much appreciated. That is exactly what I am after I just wonder if it is possible to smooth out the lines?

Sure...though keep in mind the step-function style your screenshot shows is accurate -- on a H4 chart, the D1 MA is in fact a straight line every six bars, because it doesn't change until the next day.

You can try this smoothed one though. It basically just multiplies the MA periods you input by the number of times your chart's period fits into your MA's period, so your 200 D1 MA becomes a 1200 H4 MA on your H4 chart. This is not exact, but it is close.

NO, MT4 and MT5 are different in many ways

Ask Google to learn more

Or the University of Youtube

Maybe even MQL5 as a last resort

It takes a lot for me to IGNORE you, but you can try.
