This version has both the stochastic and RSI indicators. I also corrected some bugs with the delay function as well as shorting the delay to 15 seconds.

This version defaults to the RSI indicator If you change the extern UseRSI = False; this will show the Stochlastic indicator as the version you now have. The screen shot shows both the builtin and the trendline indiators are the same.

The version you have has a small bug in the delay function but donot effect the results of the trendline. you would be better to use this one, even though.

I would of edited my last post but the Mods here treat every one like little kids, if someone crys because they dont like what you posted the mods just removes your posts and limit other rights. Hell they dont even have the guts to tell you what in your posts was so upsetting. what BS.

I have been looking for an indicator that sounds an alarm on a RSI trend line break. I just tried yours.

It may be something that I have done, but it keeps "dinging" after the trend line has been broken and still keeps "dinging" even after I have removed it. Any price movement sets it off.

It is an idea with great possibilities in my opinion.

A note of appreciation for your efforts in programming this most useful of tools.

Sorry Cowboy that was my error. Problem solved.

Again, I appreciate your effort.

There is (or was) a discussion on the use of this RSI trend line sort of thing at

RSI Bollingers +divergence 15 Min on Forex Factory.

I have been working on something similar and getting promising results. I will let you know how your alert indicator works out.

Can you tell me what you were doing to make it sound off like that. I may need to correct/change something to prevent it for others.

It wasn't your RSI Trend Line indicator.

I had another chart with Chin bars on it, that I was unaware of, hidden beneath the one with the RSI Trend line on it. What an amateur mistake to make. For some reason the Chin Bars were not making their usual alert sound and that is what confused me.(Embarrassed.)

I use RSI3 trend line breaks a lot. I find if I combine those with trend lines on the chart, the RSI trend lines usually break first and then the chart ones follow.
An alert on a RSI trend line break is a great feature and i was surprised when I started looking for an indicator that signals this that more were not readily available. Your contribution is a great one.

Did you get it set up so that it has a dialogue window and an on off switch? I do find that I have a problem getting it to signal consistently. It may be something I am doing or not doing.

I am committed to nailing the Forex Game in 2011 an this is one tool that I feel will be of great use. I will post some charts when I get it all working.

Have a Good New Year.

theres a time delay(15 seconds) built in to prevent it from going off when your trying to set the trend line. So if your dragging the line accross the RSI it will not go off unless you leave it there for 15 seconds or more (tick based).

It also will go off only once for each setting. if the RSI crosses and recrosses the trend line within the open bar it will only ring once. If you move it after ward it will reset to go off again taking the delay intoconsideration.

Theres is another setting that you can set to make it go off on the close of the bar. that is if the RSI crosses the trend line it will not go off untill the bar actually closes to prevent any premature signals.

There is a dialog box option but its not to turn it on/off, its purpose is to warn the user of the cross, that is the box pops up and remains on the screen till the user clicks OK. If ones leaves the computor for a trip down the hall. if it goes off while hes gone the box will be there to show it went off.

if you like make a list of what you would like included i will try to create a copy to fit your needs. Take your time and complete the list as I dont like to rewrite things for one change after another.

What part of Canada?

Hi Keit. I live in south eastern B.C. about 3 hours south east of Calgary.

In fact I have to go to Calgary for a couple of days so I will be off line while I do that. When I get back, I will post a couple of charts and show you how I use this RSI trend line stuff.

Basically I am drawing trend lines on both the chart and the RSI. The RSI one often breaks first.

There is also a way to calculate target prices from the RSI trend line that we could explore. It is explained in a Connie Brown Book called "Technical Analysis for the Trading Professional." Give me a day or two and I will get back to you with some interesting charts and ideas.

HLine Alert.mq4 is a Horizontal Line Alert and
TLine Alert.mq4 is a Trend Line Alert [any angle]

One thing I just worked out is you can not have 2 lines with the same name so just make sure that when you load the second Alert you Change the LineName under the Inputs Tab to something else eg: from MyLine1 to MyLine2 or MyLine3 or MyLine4, I'm sure you get the picture.

Have fun,

Dean.

many thanks!

Attached is my indicator for trendline alerts.

How to use: attach the indicator and draw any number of trendlines or horizontal lines like usual (works also for existing t/h-lines already on chart). Whenever the Bid price crosses any of them the alert sound (alert.wav) will be played.

Enjoy!

Have a look at these two free indicators to find which are suitable for you.

Trend bar - This indicator shows you the trend (based on ADX and PSAR) on every timeframe simultaneously. You can adjust the set up parameter.

Bykov Trend - Shows trend direction signals on the chart.

Hope this can help!

Hey mate, thank you kindly for this indicator! It is great but is there anyway to make it only go off once? Instead of 'ding ding... ding ding ding' as price ticks through the trendline? Also is there anyway you can view which chart the alert is going off on from one central place.. or a pop up? I have about 20 charts open and it can create quite a confusing chorus! LOL

Thanks again.

Hi

I modified it to sound once, but it will be once for ALL the trendlines... When a new bar is formed, it will activate again, and then sound again when a line is crossed. If there is a need, I will change it more as required.

I am looking for a MACD trendline indicator that gives a signal below the zero line from a support trendline and above the zero line from a resistance trendline.
I've put in a screengrab of the MACD indi - and manually put in the S&R lines.
Also, the Stochs indi previously posted I've also added the same line to that indi - along with the BUY signal it would have created (vertical line, again, manually drawn).
Is anyone able to code this type of indicator?
Thanks
George

Diagonals drawn on MACD and STOCHASTICS indictors can be used very effectively to give entries.
The attachment shows STOCHASTICS diagonals that have a specific (above 90 or below 10) starting point and a fulcrum. The Stochs indi shows the SUPPORT diagonal trap start (first yellow vertical) and the following thefulcrum (second yellow vertical).
From that fulcrum point, it shows BUY divergence (price has a lower low and Stochs has a higher low).
This is the same principal as the MACD diagonals.
MY QUESTION IS -can this be coded to give buy and sell signals?
Regards
George
