Cheers, just loaded your newest indicator and damn if it didn't give a trade signal, pretty cool

I'll have to watch it for awhile and see how it performs.....

Improvement suggestion...for any setting user chooses not to use, eg, S&R, instead of showing 0.00 with heading, just blank it out for less clutter on chart. Just an idea, maybe easier said than done...again, my compliments.

cheers

1. My S&R seems way off on EUR/USD 5 Minute chart. Right now all the lines they're bunch together under 1.2650(R3).

2. My money management does not show up on the template. Does it only show up when you receive a buy or sell alert?
1. Strange. Double check if you have zigzag sg indicator.
2. Yes, only when a buy or sell signal

Hi iHDT and colleagues
Thanks to all who are contributing to the latest presentations of Eval's strategy. To see the higher time frame readings of Eval's indicators is a great step forward.
Although I have downloaded the ex version of the v5, suppied generously by iHDT I do not expect to see it listed in my custom indicator file, but I do expect to see it in the related template, which I don't.
Is there an mq4 version of the indicator available please as there was for the first signals indicator posted by IHDT in post 4089 ... to enable me to...
You need to close mt4 then reopen it when putting an indicator into the folder, then it will show up in the list of custom indicators and also on the template, you don't need the mq4 version. The reason its not showing on the template is because its not showing in the list of custom indicators.

Agree too !
But for Fibo expansion, the calcul is made from the latest extreme high or low and the price when you have the signal. But as we check the signal at candle close, almost everytime there has been two rows of alignement (the four indicators blue or red). It means, the price difference between hi/lo and price is higher. Maybe I should set this the the open or middle price from the bar just before (-1, the first aligned row). Hope you understand me See attached example.
Don't think I fully understand what you're saying, but that doesn't really matter. There are probably pro's and con's for both. I will watch both for the coming days when market conditions are better then today's. We'll see what comes out. In many cases I have seen that in the end the method isn't the most important, as long as you're consistent in using the same method. And yes, the method has to fit your personality.

Thanks for replying. I have done what you suggested several times and also with other ex indicators, which also do not show up in my customs indicator list. However when I download mq4 files in the same way, they always show up as expected and I never have a problem The first signals indicator from iHDT, was an mq4 version and it worked for me. but the subsequent ones have been ex versions and I do not see them listed, in my navigator customs list, but they are listed in the Programs/Expert/indicators list, to which I copied them.
I am using metatrader alpari from the uk website.
However, also, If I could have a template contasining the latest version 1.7 of the signals indicator, I would expect to see it displayed correctly, because the indicator will be present,will it not, albeit unseen?
Thanks

Hi Symphonie traders,

Here is the new Symphonie Signal Indicator V1.7 (no 1.6!)

Symphonie Signal Indicator features :
...
- Trigger BUY/SELL/EXIT alerts
- Give SL, TP1 and TP2 levels based on Fibonacci Expansion or Average True Rate
- Plot SL,TP1,TP2 lines on the chart for visual confirmation
...
Screenshot are located in (your_broker_folder/experts/files/symphonie_signal/)

Enjoy,
LhDT
Thanks for your great work!

Three simple log file requests:

1) add the "Latest Signal at [price]" to the alert and print to experts log, along with the SL, TPs you already output

2) add "STS v1.7:" or some such short label at the beginning of each alert so its easier to find them among all the other alerts from other indicators

3) append same info as in alert and journal message to a text log file (also in ../files) with every screen shot that is saved in ../files (or as an option for log file instead of screenshot)

With that signal price info logged in a text file, it will be easier to check, test, select what various pairs and tf do over time, and while we were sleeping <grin>.

If you have too many other items on your to do list, please send me the mq4 and I'll add those and send back to you. My mt4 coding skills are limited, but those three are simple enough for me! <grin>

i doubt ihDT wants to release the the source on this Indy or he would have posted.
Indeed, I don't want to see that indi for sale in the next days on eBay or pseudo forex websites.

When the Indy gives a signal, does it Id itself?

Recent signal....

Close short if any on EURUSD,M5(2)

No reason given and I see no signal change from Extreme or Trend which is how I have it set.

Close your platform. Delete the file mqlcache.dat found in the experts/indicators folder. Restart platform, then look for the new indicator in the custom indicators panel. If it doesn't work, delete some of the custom indicators that you no longer need, then repeat the process.

@burlshouse

Maybe a an issue with your virus software not allowing you download files with ex4 extension. On my work computer which is behind a big firewall and more virus software than you can shake a stick at, it will not let me download ex4 files because they are too close to exe files which routinely host viruses. I am friends with our IT guy and showed him what I was downloading and he allowed me to put that in a safe senders folder where he runs a virus checks on it before I can move it to my system. mq4 files work fine for download but most people don't like to send them that way as people can modify them and sell them. There are lots of commercial creepers around here looking to make bucks off the next holy grail.

Should it not have moved to the green Sunburst at the reversal candle?



If not, what are the parameters for when the H/L line is moved to the zigzag H/L?

Signal to Signal Strategy

I have been testing this past week on an interesting strategy that I wanted to pass on to all in effort to provide a different perspective adding to the 3 strategies outlined in Post #1

I call this strategy the ''Signal to Signal'' strategy. Basically you are just following the Symphonie Signal for entry and only exit when you have a opposite Symphonie Signal that will complete a loop cycle by opening up an order in the opposite direction. In other words it is a looping pattern...
Eval if one was to follow the signal to signal trading on the vs 1.7 indicator. What would be the best settings to use on the new indicator?

Thanks,

Bobby R.

Well that's two for two so far at Tokyo, I lined up all my MTF templates I like to use and the two entries all lined up from M1 to M30 with even the H4 Heiken candle up....idea is to trade when it agrees with my stuff but I may be giving myself to much credit here....still early in the game, we'll see

I don't trade Asia session as it's dinnertime for me here in California, but watched 2 signals pop up, E/U and U/CHF, both had very little drawdown and both went to TP2. Watching a 3rd trade, G/U, steam it's way toward TP1.

Going to trade live at Frankie open.
