Hey Guys,
I was wondering if soemone would be kind enough to program a indie for me, im sure others would find it handy aswell.
I have searched high and low and found nothing but its most liekly the words im using so could already be out there.

I want the indicator to set of a sound alarm when 2 EMAs spread apart by a certain distance/pips.
The EMA values would need to be user imput.

Any help appreciated.
Cheers

I saw one like this posted a few days ago. The reason I remember it was because it looked slick, much better than most custom indicators. I think it was multi time frame as well as multi currency. I can't remember the name - he chose something catchy, not obvious. But look at the postings for the last week.

If you don't like that one, there are several others on this forum, but they are older postings. You may have to look at the last six months for crossovers.

Hi Sutters,

Sorry to hear your struggle with finding the indicator on the forums. Coded one up for you. Hope it is what you were looking for. God bless you, and I hope you enjoy your weekend.

Here are the parameters:

Inserted Code
extern bool Use_Alert=true,
            Use_Email=true;
            
extern int PipsBetweenForAlert=5;

extern string _0="Moving Averages Properties";
extern int MA1Period=10,
           MA1Method=0,
           MA1ApplyTo=0,
           
           MA2Period=20,
           MA2Method=0,
           MA2ApplyTo=0;

Dan.

Hey Sutters,

Simply save the the file into your MT4 directory/experts/indicators/ folder, and restart your MT4 platform. You will find the indicator in your Navigator window within your MT4 (CTRL+N), at which you could drag n' drop it onto any chart.

Hey Dan,
I actually mean the settings part, the MA1 period is obviously the ema value the MAmethod is ma or ema so 1 would be ema I take it but what do I put in the MA1apply to slot.

Thanks again Dan

Hi Sutters,

Oh, I see where you are getting at now.

For MAMethod:
0=Simple moving average
1=Exponential moving average
2=Smoothed moving average
3=Linear weighted moving average

For MAApplyTo:
0=Close price
1=Open price
2=High price
3=Low price
4=Median price, (high+low)/2
5=Typical price, (high+low+close)/3
6=Weighted close price, (high+low+close+close)/4

Hope that helped.

Dan.
