Quoting Divergence
this question has come up way to many times i will explain this crystal clear for the last time. Definition of setup bar: this is a candle that has closed above or below the sma and is either touching the sma or its within 2.4 pips of the sma and the cci has closed above or below the 50, (if the reading is 50.000 thats fine 49.999 is not fine) all setups with the trend trade , div 123 are the same for the setup bar. Also the div 123 the setup bar high or low must[size=1] be with 2.4 pips of point 2. Thats...

Ok just to clarify, is the Retracement Finder a CCI and just uses the histogram instead of a line?

I have the Retracement finder and RSI on my chart the RSI is for divergence and nothing more so just a guess when Divergence says the CCI closes above or below 50 he is referring to the Retracement Finder....

"If voting really worked, it would be outlawed".

[color=black][font=Verdana]Very telling of how NPR thinks about our countries ideals. They discount the importance of voting. The less people vote, the less they pay attention and look where that has taken us. Yes there are those syncs who will say voting does not make a difference. Yes at its current level there may??? have a point???... But just imagine if 60-70% of the populace voted... I would think our elected officials would be acting much differently and our county might be in a...

Hi Guys,
The CCI Histogram that some use in this forum is an ex4. It has an alarm function which will not work, for me, despite I have plenty other alarm function files. Does anyone have the mq4 for this particular CCI Histogram OR does anyone know the name of the sound file it may call. As a gap filler I am using the CCI FilterVX which I have customised some but if I have, say, 12 charts up, its demand on the CPU is quite heavy and visibly slows things.
Can anyone help ? Either the mq4 or the sound file name.
Thanks,
AltosT
