I scrolled to a crossing part in the 2nd pic.

Have to guess it could be done in MT.
For certain!

Just tired. Needed your smack upside the head on a -1'ed MA 1.

I don't often use Line charts...aside from the odd TL drawing session. Was sleepily ignoring the fact that a 1 MA IS a line chart...to do what you like with. Good stuff!

I bet killer probably has something on hand, g-man. If not, we'll knock it out quickly.

Yes...and should be fairly (very) straight forward.

But not so straight forward that I'm going to do it at 3am.

if you can inverse it like the overlay. it may be better to leave the ma time line adjustable. there could be something we dont know yet, playing with it in reverse. a negative ma in real time may be a unknown killer ma cross

Use a moving median -1 instead ...it may have better results ....

In any case, Spain back on the table for today. Is widely recognized that Spain will request the bailout in the next few hours (with the EU meeting maybe? only a extremely good auction can delay any further). Most markets looks cook for the move so just need a trigger....

GL all today.

May as well just invert the output of a standard MA indicator, and default its value to Period 1, so it defaults as an inverted line chart, but...

Will also give all the...

Period: x
Shift: x
Method: SMA, EMA, etc
Apply To: Close (default), Open, etc
Colour, Style, Thickness

Very simply...an inverted MA is all that is required here, I believe...in case you want to search for one...or ask killer for one when he shows up.

Simple, simple. Nothing "overlay" about it.

Is late here...I truly have the dumb!

Going to have to sleep on it...but that seems like it could make sense! Would be a default option with an inverted standard MT4 MA, too.

Did the S&P downgrade the long term outlook of 11 Spanish banks last night? And the short term of 4? Literally saw a tweet at 8:30pm EST. Strange hour for that, no?

No. In statistics as you know mean is not the same as median. Moving median instead of a moving average that's what I meant...

EDIT: Actually a moving median of the median price sounds (HL/2) even better.......

Right...so this baby has been up 126 pips off today's low to a high of 1.2951 breaking

multi-day fan lines (10/5,10/9...) and consolidating gains here @ 1.2930, in the process

of forming potentially a bullish flag here gathering strength for another leg up.

EUR/USD now = 1.2930
High = 1.2951
Low = 1.2825

See you guys @ LDN!

OK I'm digging the PA...this baby is strong....Solid Ted

Broke out of bullish consolidation zone with a vengeance in Asian session

This baby still on fire, keeping it real & my bullish outlook still upright for the time being

EUR/USD now trading at 1.3005
