MT4 Indi request: DPO w/Keltners

Hi- could someone please explain how I could cut and paste so I could use the DPO as an input to a Keltner channel? Super simple to program if you know how. Drag and drop doesn't work as the keltner does not know what to do with the DPO once it goes negative ( below zero line). Bollies work but I would like to use ATRs instead of standard deviations.
Thanks a million!

What is a DPO?

Detrended Price Oscillator (I Googled it )

Short explanation: the zero line represents the moving average and price swings are shown above / below.It's an unbounded oscillator, meaning it does not swing relative to +-100. In an attempt to quantify how much of a swing is "overbought" or "oversold" I like to add a range indicator overlay. A Keltner channel bounding the DPO, although creating a derivative-of-a-derivative oscillator (like MACD) -so out of fashion- creates a self- adjusting volatility range for the swings. If swings are large over a certain period of time the Keltner widens to adjust, so in theory you can still see where the true OB/OS areas are.
I think Keltners work best to show this (Average True Range) as opposed to Bollinger bands which are based on standard deviations. EMA Bands are fixed range indicators so do not adjust for volatility.
Here is a Bollinger over DPO version:


If someone could tell me how, or program a Kelty version, I would be most appreciative!

I Googled it as well but didn't find Detrended Price Oscillator.

Anyway, the requestor will need to modify the Keltner code to use the DPO data instead of High/Low data and move the indicator to a separate window - should be a very easy coding task...

not hard to find just google dpo indicator, also a few ff threads with it. as for the indi, i am confused are you looking to just overlay the dpo on a kelt channel or are you looking to replace the center ma of the channel with the dpo and have the bands work off that. the first way is easy just change the kelt window setting and that is all. the second way would require a new version of either indi with the new formulas

I have both indicators. I'm trying to figure out how to have the Keltner channel measure the swings of the DPO , not price, as I explained in the above post. Take a look at the picture I posted ( using Bollinger Bands) to get an idea of what I'm trying to achieve.
Thanks,
Taters

here is the calculation for Keltner channels:Middle Line: 20-day exponential moving average Upper Channel Line: 20-day EMA + (2 x ATR(10)) Lower Channel Line: 20-day EMA - (2 x ATR(10))Have you tried to substitute dpo redings for ema20 in the channel code and rewrite the indi? Make a copy of KC code and play with it. It could be needed to involve global variables to read the dpo, I am not sure, but I think it is possible.
