Hi xaphod, can you please tell me how I can add the HA candles to my chart instead of having to start again with your template. Thank you.

Hi Folks,

Here's a summary of my indicators per the screenshot:

Main Chart:
Synergy_APB
ATR Pips UL Corner - Periods 7, Multiplier 1
MA - 5EMA - Shift 2 - Price Typical
Bill Williams Fractals

Indicator Window 1:
TMS-Osc Histo 3TF

Indicator Window 2:
TMSTDI_Watchdog - adjust the settings for your own needs on the alerts - leave the TDI settings alone!

Indicator Window 3:
Stochastic Oscillator set to 8-3-3
RSI set to 10

All of these are on the MT4 platforms apart from the TMS / TDI indicators which will be in the attachments sections of this and the TMS thread.

Here is an indicator I found while trawling the internet, supposed to be for a 4 hour trading system.

Have not watched it on open market data yet, it is Saturday for anyone reading this years from now, so no idea what it is based on, signal seems late, think the arrow forms on close of candle, don't know if it re-paints, whatever.

Maybe some of you coders can open it to see what makes it tick?

I have this on another chart set up - lags the TDI and other MA crossovers that I have so prob not one I will use.

Thanks for the heads up

Some updates and additional information - Here's a summary of my indicators per the screenshot:
Main Chart:
### Synergy_APB
ATR Pips UL Corner - Periods 7, Multiplier 1
MA - 5EMA - Shift 2 - Price Typical (from MT4)
Bill Williams Fractals (from MT4)
Indicator Window 1:
@ TMSTDI_Watchdog - adjust the settings for your own needs on the alerts - leave the TDI settings alone! I am now running with the RSI Price Line, Trade Signal Line and MD Zone - all other lines are set to "no colour"

Indicator Window 2:
TMS-Osc Histo 3TF v1.02
Indicator Window 3 - optional - I have stopped using this purely because it seemed to add no real value on the higher timeframes - just added more noise to the charts
Stochastic Oscillator set to 8-3-3 (from MT4)

Another Stochastic the I do have on another chart is the Stochastic Divergence - Personal choice as to whether you add this one - again it adds noise but may be good to have on another chart for reference / testing purposes.

I have included my template for the TMS - you will need to have all of the indicators saved in MT4 for it to work - there is also a screen shot so that you can compare what you have on your chart.

As to using all of this - keep reading the thread and especially anything from "Eelfranz" and "dcginc". If you are trading on the 1 hour, read "Phx62"

For additional education you can also go the Compass FX and the Dean Malone videos - these teach a slower more conservative entry point than the TMS, but well worth a watch - http://www.compassfx.com/ and you can also find him on youtube - lots of videos from 3 years ago but the approach and the TDI lessons are good.

Also for MT4 newbies - check out MB Trading - they have some great webinars - http://www.mbtrading.com/webinars.aspx and you can always use their "on demand" videos (not many people know about this as an option) http://www.mbtrading.com/joomla/inde...=86&Itemid=112

Can anyone advise on replicating the TDI on Oanda's Fx Trader, even if approximately.
I have applied an RSI 5 with an EMA 7 on top and it looks pretty close, can someone recommend an improvement?
Thanks.

ok fellas. need a bit of help.

iam not a technically minded person, so can someone advise on what to do here.

i use alpari mt4.

in the past i have been able to download indicators from forexfactory threads without any issues. i download them straight to my alpari indicators folder. iam then able to upload the indicators onto my charts by going into 'custom' indicators menu on the chart and then clicking on the name of that indicator.

however recently i find that i can no longer download indicators onto my alpari account. iam not too sure what the problem is. i know the hard disk space on my laptop is a bit full, but there is still enough space left for downloads.

whenever i click on an indicator link on any thread, to download it, i get a message asking to save or download. i have tried both saving and downloading. saving - of course to my alpari indi folder.
and both seem to work, i.e. iam able to download or save them to my alpari indi folder.

however, when i then check on my alpari charts, the indicator i had just downloaded is not listed there. i then check my computers drive, and again no indictor is listed there either. so i dont know whats happening to the download and why it dissapears after downloading ? and does not appear under the 'customs' indicator menu on my alpari chart. which is what it should do.

could it be that i already have too many custom indicators on my alpari account and its not taking any more ? how do i check that. as there seems to be plenty of space still left.

i really dont know what the problem is.

any help from all you technical experts (!) would be appreciated....

You can use CCI set @ 6 with vertical line on 0.
When line crosses 0 up, TDI crosses up.
When line crosses 0 down, TDI crosses down.

Try this:

Step 1. Make sure metatrader is not running.
Step 2. If you are using Vista or Windows 7 right click on the Metatrader-Alpari folder, Properties, Security, Edit, give full control to both System and Users.
Step 3. Go to Metatrader-Alpari \ experts \ indicators and delete the file mqlcache.dat.
Step 4. Save the indicator to your Metatrader-Alpari \ experts \ indicators folder.
Step 5. Start your MT4.

Can anyone tell me why my watchdog doesn't trigger any alert, even if the alert setting is set to TRUE?
  • #213
  • Nov 29, 2011 8:42am Nov 29, 2011 8:42am
Are the alerts working as they should on the watchdog?

I've just had an H4 alert on EJ at 14:26 (i.e. before bar close) even though RefreshLastBar is set to false - this happens all the time?

Thx

Hi all,

Can anyone help me with getting the blue lines on another platform? (NT)
They look like bollinger bands if I'm not mistaken, however what are the
settings and how would I replicate (I have have the mas and rsi giving me the correct signals as per first page) so how would I go about adding the bands to this?

Any help greatly appreciated

Thanks

Hi everyone..I'm using the subject indicator and have a question..all the alerts are true except sound and I get red "B" sometimes when price goes up and seldom get S on anything, I assume they represent buy/sell, if so the B seems incorrect 98% time..any help/suggestions

Hello Plamen and others,

Thanks so much for providing the Watchdog, it's made wonders to my trading! I was hoping to get some help: I want to integrate the @TMSTDI_Watchdog indicator into an EA I am creating, calling the iCustom function since the .mq4 code isn't provided online. I've tried this already, but am getting a bunch of nonsense numbers when I try to receive the return value for MQL4. Another member asked Plamen for this information a while back, but an answer wasn't posted publicly to this thread.

Would anyone have any pointers on how to resolve this?

Plamen I know you are super busy, but could you please some help to an EA coder newbie? I can provide code calls if need be, I just didn't want to make this post overwhelming.

Thanks!

Hello Plamen,

Thank you very much for sharing this indicator (@TMSTDI_WatchDog). I have really enjoyed using it with TMS.

I am curious if you would be willing to share the iCustom? Or provide the buffer assignments?

Thank you again and have a great day.

You should list each and every parameter of the custom function in the iCustom call (in place of the dots in the command description), exactly matching the order and type. The description texts might be replaced by empty quotes though.
Unfortunately the indicator has a lot of them, so it can be a tedious task to make it right.
