MJ - My Indicators

first post: uploaded a template with the sound and popup alerts also disabled: only Vline is on. ALPmullin86Var1_Tutorial_v10 _OnlyVlineAlert.tpl

Spudfyre MTF The Escalator to Pips Strategy:

http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=36574

Just thought the other night, that the new version of the MTF-STO Alerter (with added suggestions from pmullin86) could be quite nicely be used to 'partially' Alert for Spud's MTF The Escalator to Pips Strategy

ALop4STOkUpDnObOs_MTF_0.00 Indi set to the 4 MTF Intervals and set the DisregardLevelObOs to true for all.

this should only alert if all 4 TF are in the same direction but only when all are between OverSold and OverBought zone and not in the extremes.

One would still manually have to check some of the other conditions but so what

Small Note: it is not 100% the same because if you read this thread my STOk indi is a slight modification - but still I guess it should do the trick.


The new updated indi are not yet uploaded.

NEXT Plan:

pmullin86 and I decided it might be a good idea to replace the current:
MA touch Price indicator with something more dynamic.

Basic idea will be: that not a single MA is though as dynamic Resistance/Support line but that using two MA's we define something more like a Support/Resistance Zone.

Nothing new many others do that

So, I will try a new indi which we can use in place of the single line: MaTouchPrice one.

Something: BarTouchMaZone -- I still want to use not a single price value (which would be fine for Live data) but for past data we have only bars - so I want to use something similar for Past and Live price consideration.


Will see what comes out - if it works nicely I probably will do a MTF Version of it too.


Something like the pic below


UPDATE: pic of the difference to the single line MA Touch prize and the one using the MA Zone. seems to be ok

Just wanted to test the new indi and saw a nice Entry Alert from the tutorial template:

so I post it for interest stimulation

R:r 1:3 maybe up to for 1:5 did not check: also note this was by hindsight and NOT a life situation.

see pmullin86 excellent thread for some more related ideas.

http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...65#post5086965

that was faster than I thought ... still needs later some real checking


NEXT Plan: Make a MTF-Version of it.

Continue from post above.

Because I want to replace the: ALopEMATouchPrice_0.00.ex4 indi with the new ALopBarTouchMaZone_0.00.ex4

I will show 'fast' how I do that without changing too much.

1.
It should be fairly easy as we have already the Empty SubWindow in the correct place.

** So I just remove the: ALopEMATouchPrice_0.00.ex4 indi

*** Change for the second EmptySubWindow_0.00.ex4 the

sDisplayTEXT1 = MA1 Price Touch ALERT TO BAR TOUCH MA ZONE(Ma1-Ma3)

IMPORTANT: you will still have the old Vline Alerts in this subwindow - we delete any way ALL objects before saving the new template. so no problem

*** add the new indi ALopBarTouchMaZone_0.00.ex4
bExtStartDelay = false (remember it's still the Weekend template

bPlotMALines = false we have them already plotted

iMA1Method = 1; /**< MA1: Method: 0=SMA, 1=EMA. >*/
iMA1Period = 50;

iMA2Method = 1; /**< MA2: Method: 0=SMA, 1=EMA. >*/
iMA2Period = 200;

We said we want the zone between pmullin86 Ma1(50) and Ma3(200)

**** I disable all alerts like before except the Vline Alert.

***IMPORTANT:
iAlertVLineSubWindowNum = 2


Delete all your objects as discussed and save the template. (as it is active tick time take care you don't get any new alerts creating objects)

Clean the Terminal as discussed - restart - and apply the new template.


Note: I adjusted yesterday in a text editor the hight of the subwindow to fit my 27" tft monitor. If you have a small monitor you might not be able to read the EmtySubWindow Text.

Uploaded the updated indi and template.

TUTORIAL TEMPLATE FOR Alerter Pmullin86 System__update.zip

contains the Tutorial version and a template (plus new indi) I just replaced above.

This is just thought for anyone interested to play around a bit - till I upload all the fixed/new indies with docu.


BTW: sound/popup alerts are still on - probably you want to disable them as there are too many alerts.

Saw a small error in the new: ALopBarTouchMaZone_0.00.ex4

Nothing serious - just I forgot to really implement the bPlotMALines option so that it can be disabled.

Will do that when I update all indicators.


Anyway, basically it should work still as expected.

Fixed the missing part from previous post.


Did also the MTF version of: Bar Touch MTFMaZone


Below a pic: in the Data Window on the side one can see it's indeed a true MTF MA version using even two different TF: M15 and for the second M30.

VLine Alerter blotted over whole chart option.

PLAN TODO:

1. ALopSTOkEntryLevelCHK MTF version.

2. A Simple SubWindow Text Placer indi so that All SubWindows can be better Named.

3. Combined Alerter ideas (might still change):

- Chart MA Order Alert

- MTFSame MA Order Alert (maybe also use full MTF-Ma ORDER)

- MTF-STO with Direction Up/Down With OverBoughtOverSoldLevel
(also one version which can use 3 STOk for that instead of only two)

- MTF-STO EntryLevelCHK(probably with some additional option like excluding it only if both are to close - kind of OR check
e.g. if used for H4 and H1: that UP is valid if both are below their dSTOkUPMaxLevel but also if only one is below.

This gives as a single indi a bit of an unclear alert as there are situations when Both UP and DOWN are true at the same time
- means: may only be allowed together with an other Alert which gives a clear Alert Direction)

- Chart EntryLevelCHK

- BarTouchMaZone

- BarTouch MTF MaZone


Note: It has to be rechecked if in the current setup the MTF-STO Direction Alert should use the H1?

Theoretical problem - which I also often saw on the chart is:

Because the BarTouchMaZone uses quite a high MA value (50) it happens very often that this big backbounce in a trend will turn the H1 MTF Sto in the opposite direction.

e.g. Every thing is in a DOWN trend.

We wait for BarTouchMaZone which usually means price has to go a little bit back up (which we anyway want for a Trend continuation entry).

BUT because the Values of the MA's are relatively high - the price must go up quite a bit (mostly over a number of M5 bars) which in turn moves often the H1 STOk from direction down to Direction UP.

As all other stuff is in a DOWN trend: in the current setup this H1 STOk often prevents a signal (because it H1 must also point down at the same time when the BarTouch the MaZone)

Still need to check this better - and see if an other option works nicer.

pic uses a number of other stuffs I tried to check: But BarTouch the MaZone is already changed to 30 - 100MA.

some option would be to go for H4, D1 STO,
or reduce the MaZone etc...

Anyway - need to check further into this - maybe it's still the best as it seems t work for: Pmullin86 - (but note: he uses anyway a different approach with closed candles and 'normal STO'.



Additional maybe option to include:

- MA Direction - test it once if it would be helpful as it is different than the Order
- maybe make the Rope Order Alert and include it - also as separate Alerter ?
- maybe make a opposite stuff from EntryLevelCHK: so that a STO MUST be for UP above a certain level: this could be used together with the current EntryLevelCHK to check a little bit for things like Elastics

e.g. idea: 2. pic yellow vline: The DarkViloet 100,3 STO could be bushed to above any level let's say 85 and the 14,3 Sto of the Rope with the EntryLevelCHK to be below 65.

Something like that - I did long ago an indi based on this idea.

Opened a separate thread for the planned combined indicator:

MJ - MasterALERT - (System)s) http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=323247

Mainly because out of it should develop a number of systems where the Alerter is used for.

Removed all indi - till the next update.

Work on the MasterALERT has also started a little bit.

1. ALopSTOkEntryLevelCHK MTF version.
I will skip that for the time being as my focus will be on the MasterALERT.
2. A Simple SubWindow Text Placer indi
Finished the A Simple SubWindow Text Placer indi (TextOnSubWindow)

Main purpose to clearly identify SubWindows purposes in a complex setup (not relying on the barely readable indicator info )

Very similar to my EmptySubWindow indicator - but it does not create a separate subwindow - only used to set Text on existing Sub/or Main Chart window.


Probably I will update the existing indi to the last code and upload all of them later on.

DOWNLOAD from First Post.

What does it contain:

* 168 individual indicators: (4 zip part plus 1 zip docu): UPLOAD: 20111103
BUT many of them overlap a lot
(Note all are tested: there might be still a number of errors - some are tested.
The docu is generated semi-automated so there might be a number of errors - but hey - better than nothing


* PLUS: (UNSUPORTED_MAYBEUSEFUL__Indicators. zip some old maybe useful indies)

* PLUS: (TEMPLATE of the Template Tutorial post #182:http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...33#post5082733)



================================

I guess this will be the last upload for a while:

1. I'm privately very busy with other major things

2. My main effort will go in the MasterALERT (Combined Alerter) which will be based on many things posted here.
MJ - MasterALERT - (System)s) http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=323247

Maybe one or the other stuff will be also back ported to some kind of solo indicator - or I find in the process some errors(probably) and fix them - and once in a while I update it here.

Back porting from MasterALERT code:

- better Alert user input check:
Vline SubWindow at least one of the possible ones.

- renamed:
ALopBarTouchMaZone to ALopBarInMaZone
ALopBarTouchMTFMaZone to ALopBarInMTFMaZone

to keep more in tune with the MasterALERT

MJ - MasterALERT - (System)s) http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=323247

First implementation. No download yet.

Back-ported a couple of things from the new MasterALERT development.
This will be uploaded here with the next update: (probably not so soon)


BTW: there is a very simple Preview version I uploaded already in that thread above.

Big Time Gap: MTF indi:

Seems that my MTF way: did handle the Time Gap very well (black one I check it manually)

- whereas the other MTF indi was slightly off: (red one) but I guess nothing too serious



for more info on MT4 time gaps in charts 'HOLES': MTF4 has the approach: http://articles.mql4.com/136

Congrats...nice work
