Hi Styngray,

Download the Heiken_Ashi_Smoothed indicator from the very first post and copy the file into the <path to your MT install>/experts/indicators folder.
Restart your MT, after the restart you should see the indicator listed in the Navigator window (Ctrl+N) at the 'Custom Indicators' section.

Hope this would help you out,
Longbar

Hi Longbar. Was wondering if this indicator could be made into an EA triggering a buy or sell after one or two bars close after the color change (maybe user adjustable on amount of bars to close before taking a trade)? It would close order when the reverse situation occurs and open an order in the opposite direction. Also, it would be nice to incorporate some user adjustable settings such as MM, SL, TP, TS etc.? One other request: Can you make another EA using just two moving averages (10 EMA-Aqua and 20 EMA-Blue), sell triggered when 10 crosses below 20 and buy when 10 crosses above 20 (maybe triggered after 1 or 2 bars are closed after the crossover, again user adjustable on the amount of bars to close before taking the trade). If unable to create EA's above can you at least create both above with audible alerts so I do not have to eyeball my computer screen all day? Should be noted I mainly use both of the above on the 1H and 4H charts, all currency pairs. Thanks a million buddy, I appreciate any and all assistance you can provide. Take care...

There some issues I'd like to know using that system. Where should one place stop-loss order? And where should one exit?
Best regards, Andrew Forex

Andrew Forex. If your question is directed at me then the answer would be when the opposite situation occurs to both of your questions. If they are EA's it should be done automatically, if manually trading then again when the opposite situation occurs just close out and/or take opposite position. You can always just place your own SL, TP and TS if you wish but I really have no recommendations on that as it should be up to each individual trader based on their own style/risk tolerance. Hope this helps.... Michael

Hi mef1,

This is a .ex4 file which is the compiled version of the .mq4 source code. The source code will be needed to make modifications to the indicator - could you attach the .mq4 file or a link to it?

Okay, Anyone with programming skills! I need these request(s) turned into an EA. Yes, I will pay $500.00 when it is created (and tested, and tested) by me for at least 60 days. If it works you get your money. Attached is an indicator (and no, I do not have the source code so you have to do some homework). I also (with that above/attached mentioned indicator want included the MA of 10 EMA and 20 EMA, 10 crosses below 20 is a EA sell (in conjuction with attached indicator) and 10 crossing over 20 is an EA buy (in conjuction with attached indicator). Notice I stated EA buy/sell, it should do this without me being present. Can it be done? Is there a master programmer that can do this? I would like (want) all of the above programmed into one EA that works on all currency pairs and all time frames. And, since I am willing to pay for it please (anyone successful in creating this) please send it to me via email! Only two people should have access to this, me (the payer) and you (the creator). Anyone up to the challenge? My email: [email protected]

Got another $500.00 for the person that can create an EA based on the attached file alone (no MQ file so do some research/homework please) this EA will take/close trades strickly based on what the color changes (paramenters) suggest. So, I am looking for two EA's for a total of $1,000.00 if someone (expert) can create them, however I want to test them for 60 days and then you have my word if they are working as requested you "WILL" get your money! Again, this particular EA is only to be sent to me ([email protected]) and nobody else except the creator. AND, since I am paying it is to be shared with nobody except me and the creator - period... Thanks...

Hi mef1,

You made a generous offer to the public, seems to me you find this indicator promising. I loaded it on to an euro and a cable chart and indeed delivered good trades for the last few days I eyeballed. Thanks for bringing up the indicator!

If you want to save some money then just open a new forum thread - and leave this one dedicated to Mr Ed's strategy. Let us know here the new thread link and I will (might be someone else as well on the forum) put together an EA to see if the indi was profitable and worthwhile to put further effort into it. I offer my spare time best effort (at no charge) like I did for Mr Ed EA. However if you need more than that then that's a different story... PM me in that case.

Cheers

Had a closer look at the indicator's output you attached. This reminds me pretty much to the indicator known as NonLagMA. As it has been amongst us for long enough I would not be surprised if you could find EAs' based on it ready for download.

Is it possible to add 2 filters into Mister Eds EA ?
The idea of the 15 min candle being the same color as the 4Hr signal candle at the time of entry of the trade.

Also an ext int with the 15 min candle wait for confirmation.
example the 15 min candle was not the same color at the time of the 4hr signal so the EA has an adjustable candle wait for confirmation.

example wait 1, 2, 3 or 4 candles 15 min for the color to correctly match the 4hr candle to trade the signal.

Also this indicator attached, Trend Envelopes v2 as an exit option. It does very well to keep the trade continuing until the trend has completed.

All the best
Ian

The same idea as my previous post but instead of just the 15 min candle this
4 TF HAS Bar with all the time frames matching up for the entry.
When this indicator is placed on the 15 min chart it shows the timeframes
15, 30, 60, 240. but if you look inside the code, it has extra code not being currently used for adjusting the timeframes of the candles.
It would be better if on the 4 hour chart the indicator showed the
15, 30, 60, 240 candles, currently it shows the higher timeframes.

thankyou

Hi Longbar

The 4 TF HAS Bar was having trouble refreshing therefore I located the fixed version.

N4 TF HAS Bar and N4 TF HAS Bar 2 is dragged and dropped on to the same indicator window to form the correct indicator for trading.

I think this additional entry filter making the use of multi-time frames for the EA, can help to prevent some of the losing trades due to retracement soon after entering the trade on the 4Hr candle.
A number 0, 1, 2, 3 or 4 ext int for how many of the time frames to confirm the trade signal entry will be best.

thankyou
Ian

Hi,

I am working on a scalping strategy using the Heiken Ashi Indicator. The rules are the following :

- check that historic volume and historic ATR are positive
- if Heiken Ashi reverse (bulish candle to bearish candle) and if we are under the daily pivot (or 10 pip above) then we enter a short (same thing for a long position (bearish candle to bullish candle and above the daily pivot)
-TP and SL are give by the ATR (period = 20)

I have written the code, but I would like to improve it.
First, I do not understand why it is so slow when I try a backtest,, If somebody has an idea or a reference, please do not hesitate

Second point, I would like to open 2 orders one "classic" with fix TP and SL. The other one with a trailing stop, more specially with a stop which will move to breakeven when the TP is reached and then the stop moves as a trailing stop.

I am a newbie. And I only did the code for fix TP and SL. If somebody, can give me a reference to build this trailing stop, it would be great. So far I do not get it how to code this trailing stop and more important I do not know why this code is so slow for backtesting.

Here is the code.

Any comments are welcome. Thanks by advance

PS : I use a smooth version of the Heiken Ashi developed by mister Ed
I tried to use the trailing stop developed by Long Bar, But I do not get it. If Long Bar can explain me the idea of his trailing stop, it would be great (or if someone can give me a reference it would be great)
