hey all, i am looking for a simple indicator--simiular to andrews pitchfork---but pre set with 3 lines 0 being the top line---45 pips being the center line----and 90 pips being the lower line--andrews is a pain to set horozontal and keep trying to adjust to theese levels --and can be moved around the chart fixed at theese levels --or adjustable to theese levels---should say its basically a triple horozontal set of three lines that can be placed on the chart and moved around the chart --pre set as one--thanks--Richie
Richie,

The best MT4 object type I can find to create a multilevel ruler is a fibo channel.

Install the attached .ex4 script into your ..../experts/scripts folder and restart MT4. Then drag it onto any chart, from MT4's Navigator.

Select the object by clicking (or double clicking) on the topmost line, and then drag its middle handle around, to move the ruler.
To make the ruler wider or narrower, drag the right handle around while holding down the SHIFT key.

WARNING: If you drag the left handle on the second line, you'll change the spacing from 45 pips (but the label descriptions don't change).

If you want to change the parameter settings, you'll need to start over by deleting the object, and then reattaching the script.

That's the best that I can do, given the limitations imposed by MT4, and the time that I have available.

Happy New Year,
David
__________________

[EDIT] I fixed a bug and uploaded a new version.

NOTE: The script will work if you simply copy the .ex4 file into your ..../experts/scripts folder.

However, if you copy the .mq4 file there also, then you must also copy the two attached .mqh files into your ..../experts/include folder, for the .mq4 to compile correctly.

I have a question concerning the code if i may?
you delcare a variable:
datetime Bar1Time;
but it is not defined. So when the function Time[1] = Bar1Time is used, how does the code know what the value of Bar1Time is?
Glad you learned something, that was the point

Bar1Time will have an initial value of 0 when it is declared, this works just fine the first time that start() is called . . .

Initialisation of variables

"Any variable is initialized with zero (0) if no other initial value is explicitly defined."

Absolutely learning Raptor !
initializing with zero explains alot i often see variables being delcared without a value and this explains that ....

This example is great for me to learn more.
And so i have one more question if i may:
in the example code we are declaring:
hc5 = Close[iHighest(Symbol(), PERIOD_H1, MODE_CLOSE, 5, 1)];
I would think that that would imply that the level of the 1 hour frame, 1 bar back, is always used.
But if yo switch frames, the line will "jump" to a new level.
Thats curious to me.....
Could you explain this please?
Thanx !!

This actually isn't EA related; it's just a simple indicator I'd like to have made if anyone has the spare time. I'd simply like a indicator that can take the D1 candle from a selectable number of bars back and put out this information for each weekday separately:
Average Volume
Average Hi-Low Range
Average Open-Close Range
The average open-close range divided by the average hi-low range to give a percentage


I'm terrible with programming but I think the information alone should be easy to formulate, but the tricky part might be separating...

This is what I've come up with. I still need to do some cleanup in the code and then I'll post it if it looks like what you are looking for.

Yes. The way you have used iHighest always gets the bar number for the highest close value during the last 5 H1 bars . . . regardless of the timeframe of the chart, but then you use that bar number with Close[] . . . Close[] uses the current timeframe, so if you switch from H1 to M15 Close[] is from M15 not H1 . . . if you want H1 regardless of the chart timeframe use iClose() instead of Close[].

Happy New Year! I hope you had a safe and fun New Years Eve. Thank you for all your help on the indicator. It is working VERY well.

I had a question about taking the ATR and a moving average and using them as a filter for ranging markets. I can plot the ATR on a chart and then add the MA in the same window and use the previous indicators data. Then when the MA crosses down there is a ranging market and when the MA crosses back up the market is ending the range.

What I want to do is use that in my custom indicator I've been working on. Would...
LaoShr-
I will certainly recommend first creating it as a separate indicator as the other one is becoming a bit too complex to try and add additional filters without first testing them by themselves.

hi
i want to thank you for your effot and your way to help other people

i realy apretiat that

and i will be very happy if you make this expert for me

it actually a very simple

we use only one indicator

34 ema on the close
34 ema on the high
34 ema on the low

the entry is simple open a buy when candel close above 34 ema high
and close the trade when candel close below 34 ema low

and the same thing for sell
sell when candel close below 34 ema low and close the trade when price close above 34 ema high

and would like to add a trailling stop that we wil define based on ATR


thank you in advance

If it's so simple you can do it yourself. If you can't code how do you know it is simple ?

i dont how to code but
i think it's simple because it doesnt have a lot of variable
only looking for close above or below moving average

that's it

Coding such an EA is not as simple as you assume it is.

For a beginner, it might take 50 hours or more ( without counting the hours
he needs to learn how to code ).

So how can you say it is simple ?

Learn to code yourself instead of expecting others to work for free for you.

Or pay a coder, there are many good coders around and they live from coding,
so do something good in your life and give them income, they deserve it.

Besides that there are free EAs available on many forums which trade MA crosses.
Invest your precious time to search for them, it is very simple.

plenty of things are simpler than this.

you literally know nothing about what you are asking.

it CAN be simple, but it WON'T WORK HOW YOU THINK IT WILL. what happens when you get price ticking up and down continually crossing the ma's triggering your conditions? this is usually when the 'oh can you make it not trigger until it has moved x pips past?' and then more and more conditions are added, and now this SIMPLE bit of code has been turned into a frankenstein clusterfuck of code.

simple, yes. functional, no.

or to put it another way... experienced coders can often see a trap a mile away. what you propose is broken logic, and you don't actually realize this yet and what you would need to include to make it function how you imagine it in your mind.
Congratulations ScalaFX for coming out of the closet!

If you increment your loop instead of decrement this will do as you requested. Essentially it repaints.

Cyber1,

I hope you had a great Holiday Season. Thank you for all your help so far. I have some very good ideas that are coming together. I had a question regarding coding a way to have a username and password to access the indicator. I have some clients I would like to have access to the indicator but I want to limit the who and be able to keep it updated for everyone using it. Is this possible and if so, how difficult? Is there any leads you can throw my way to look into it?

Thanks,

I have attached a file that shows "a way" of doing it. I did not thoroughly test it and I'm almost certain I didn't think of all the possibilities but it would only provide very basic password protection. If any of your clients are tech savvy in the slightest all they have to do is decompile the indicator.

Otherwise you would need to use a service like MQL Defender or you would have to create a DLL file.
