Quoting scartree
I have searched for a sound alert but have not been able to find exactly what I want. I have no coding skills to make one myself. I am trading a number of pairs on M5 charts and trade when PA reaches a determined price level and satisfies a number of criteria. The trouble is that I never seem to be looking at the right chart at the right time!! I prefer to trade manually and make decisions to trade as an EA could take too many false signals. I just need an alert - if some generous person could code it for me, I would be very grateful.

I want...
Hi Scartree,

I am not a programmer but I think I have just what you are looking for. This is something I came across over the summer.

I removed the sound files for the pair CHF/JPY because the upload was too big. If that happens to be a pair that you trade, let me know and I can send it over. Also, let me know if you need help setting it up. And remember, you should be able to create your own .wav files to work with this indicator if you like... just remember to save them as the same name.

Hope that helps!

http://cdn.forexfactory.com/images/icons/icon1.gif Why is this indicator wacky
Can anyone tell me why this indicator-http://cdn.forexfactory.com/images/attach/mq4.gif i-Breakeven.mq4 works fine on the Interbank FX (IBFX) platform but shows wacky calculations on the FXsolutions Australia platform? Is it because one platform uses 4 digits and the other 5? If so, what would I change in the code to get it to work for a 4 digit platform? thanks

Hi guys,

I need some help regarding code writing in EA related to a unit counter and a timer.
I mean, let's suppose the following:

if (routine is true) do it while counter>0 where counter would start with a initial number = 10 and at each routine execution it is subtacted by 1, and the second condition is:

After the first condition is done wait for 15 minutes do do it again...and make all this an endless loop.

If anybody could help me with that I would really appreciate it.

Thank you very much

for(int i = 10; i>0; i--)
{
// do something; set break condition

The indicator attached is a MTF DMI indicator. I have noticed that when I run it on a 5 min chart but set on a 15 min time frame that it will check every 5 min and set it's color according to that 5 min block and not repaint at the end of every 15 min. The caveat is that if I close my mt4 or change the time frame and then switch it back the data is then repainted based on the close of the 15 min. Whereas if I hadn't closed the chart it could have 2 reds and a blue for a 15 minute period. After refresh it would have 3 blue if that was the color of the last 15 minute block on the 5 minute chart.

Now I don't know if it is possible but I was hoping an EA could be made with a couple inputs that could manually be put in. Basically I would like to be able to run the EA on any time frame I choose and be able to set the indicator up for another time frame of my choosing along with the DMI_smoothing period.

For example: I could run the EA on a 5 minute time frame and it would trade based on whatever settings I put in for the indicator. Say like a 15 min DMI with 21 period DMI_smoothing or a 30 minute DMI with 16 period DMI_smoothing.

As for the trade execution I would like it to basically be in the market at all times. On candle close the EA should check if the DMI block is red or blue. If it is blue it should be in a buy. If on candle close the block turns red then the EA should close the buy and sell.

Would be great if there was an input to have a hard stop loss. Also one for how many lots to trade per trade. Lastly I think being able to set the time the EA would operate would be great.

Since the EA won't be back test-able, because of the issue with repainting if the chart is changed at all, it will take a lot of forward testing on a demo account to find the best settings but I'm willing to put in the time and share my findings with the community. Anyway...let me know if someone can do this.

hello,
I am new in this forum with no idea of mt4 programming . so far i was able to read through the work of gurus interms of contribution and tireless services. i have two different materials from two guru here that i will like you to merge together to improve the perfomance of the EA . i notice so far that the EA performs on eurusd pair. i do not know why it always refuses to open trades in other pairs. all what i need from you is to go through this ea and the indicator with attached manual and see how all can become a single EA with efficient perfomance that has money management faci;ities. please these materials are not mine but the shares from gurus in the forums .
Please i will like you to read the manual for the indicator very well and see how it could work with the EA in both long and short trades and at which time will it perform better?

thank you very much

Could someone please assist with modifications to the attached existing indicator MultiPivotPoints.mq4.

It is a Pivot Point indicator for various timeframes which shows historical levels. The layout and various timeframe settigns are exacty what I need, however I need slightly different Highs and Lows to be used for the calculations in my methodology.

In the MultiPivotPoints-Custom.mq4 version of the indicator attached I have modified the Weekly and Monthly periods to attempt to grab the figures I need and perform appropriate calcs. The main change being I want the High and Low from the previous 3 periods.

For some reason, the Weekly figures work, but only when showing the Weekly timeframe. Any other timeframe selected the figures get blown out slightly. And the same changes to the Monthly figures seem to cause issues also.

Can anyone please help with the modifications required to this indicator, or indeed provide a new one that shows the levels I need.

Cheers

Hello Everybody,
I hope that all of you enjoyed the Christmas Days and that you have some moments to think about the following:
Using Price History of Metatrader 4 I would like to measure the length of the largest trend in a given length of time before it retraces for x points .
Result could be: in the last 6 month EURUSD moved up 300 points before going down 50 points.
That is to figure out the risk of different currency pairs, playing the counter trend.
Maybe something similar already exists?
Happy Trading!

findmanu. This is not my indicator but I do like it, the only problem is that it needs an audible alert (maybe a pop-up as well) when the colors change (after the color change bar closes). As it is, it works well with all currency pairs but really needs an audible alert (maybe a pop-up as well). Summary: I would like at least an audible alert (maybe a pop-up as well) after the first bar of a color change closes, regardless of which time frame I am using. I do prefer the 1H and 4H timeframes the most. I currently use it on 12 currency pairs so it should be multiple pair(s) friendly as well. Can you help? Thanks buddy.... Michael

findmanu. In regards to my last request (above), what are the odds of making my last request a robot (EA). With MM, TS, SL, TP 4/5 digit brokers, pretty much the standard options for a good versatile EA. I would love to test it if you could build it. What do ya think? Thanks, Michael

Hi,

I need a EA for the following.

Price approaches a MA and bounces after touching or almost touching it.

Price has to be clear of the MA for a certain number of bars - in this case two. Green circles show valid trades - red is not valid.

Trading is AWAY from the MA.

This system needs some session restrictions and trade man. as well - like trading hours, partial take profit and trailing stops.

Cheers

Thomas

Hello Nanningbob,
I found the fact sheet. Interesting, although times change rapidly, but it is a good start.
In fact I don't mind that a currency moves 600 pips a day as long as there is a retracement of 100 pips in between.
I am with a group on another forum working on a Martingale EA, therefor I thought I could trim the settings according to the retracement facts.
Anyways, thanks and all the best for 2010.
Happy Trading
