Hanover! just wanted to throw a huge thanks your way. this thread made it so easy for me to setup and now be able to manipulate my indicators at will! priceless!

Anyhow, i resolved the 'integer input' problem that was discussed at one point, as i was working with the OsMA indicator the other day.

for those who want to know, its as simple as changing the code:

OsmaBuffer[i]=(MacdBuffer[i]-SignalBuffer[i])

to

OsmaBuffer[i]=100000*(MacdBuffer[i]-SignalBuffer[i])


obviously depending on the indicator you are working with. This changes the output from say 0.00054 to 54. so long as you recall this modification than you can use this template and insert this slight change in the code for any indicators that use small decimals.

peace

Tried everything you wrote but doens't work really.

Want to try a new strategy and need one or two Indicators with alerts.

Murray math lines and an auto fibo.

Only got this without any errors, when I have the [altercandle] in it, it shows only errors.

Maybe someone could help me

These are the alerts I would like to have:
Murray Math Lines:
- 6/8 Reversal Major, 2/8 Reversal Major
- 7/8 Weak Stall & Reserve, 1/8 Weak Stall & Reserve
- 8/8 Ultimate Resistance and 0/8 Ultimate Support
- +2/8 Extreme Overshoot, -2/8 Extreme Overshoot

Also an auto Fibo indicator that uses zigzags and also low/highs:
- 100
- 127
- 161
and on the reverse side:
- 127
- 161

{quote} Your request will likely get greater visibility by posting in one of the "I code your indicators for free" threads, but be willing to explain exactly how the VIX is calculated, because many programmers (myself included) probably won't know the formula.

Hello Sir,

Can you code and mt4 indicator like level trading 123, only one more addition/ change I need is that it can draw line/levels at swing points.

Hoping for help.

Hi Hanover,

I tried to use the shell code mentioned in the first page for the Williams %R indicator, but it seems that I am screwing it up. Are you able to help me code it so that the indicator can send me an email alert or even better a notification to my MT4 mobile platform? The indicator would send an alert whenever it popped 80 or 20. I know this is very simple and easy, but I can't seem to get it right. Can you help?

Hi,
sorry to interupt but I need a little help with a small matter... I'm new to trading FRX, I'm using MT4, my charts are candle sticks with a bollinger band. I was told this site is riddled with geniuses, so i will ask the question?
I'm looking for an alert to load into my system, if possible the alert should only trigger when the green indicator breaks the upper band not the red and it should only trigger when the red indicator breakes the lower band not the green!!!

So if the red breaks the upper band no alert, if the green breaks the upper band an alrert is triggered.......
So if the green breakes the lower band no alert, if the red breakes the lower band an alert is triggered....
If there is a bit of software that can do this, or someone fancies a challenge, this would be great... oh can I please have the instructions how to load into my system if someone has this or cdesigns it. Many Thanks for any help you can give...
BBB..

Candle 1 - consider the first candle

Candle 3 - here not to give any sign, because the market changes direction but there is no candle body swallowing 2
Candle 4 - Yes the close of this candle to give the sound signal and arrow, 4 candle swallowed the body of the candle 3
Candle 5 - here not to give any sign, the market does not change direction
Candle 6 - Yes the close of this candle to give the sound signal and the arrow, 6 candle swallowed the body of the candle 5
Candle 7 - here not to give any sign, because the market changes direction but there is no candle body swallowing 6
Candle 8 - here not to give any sign, because the market changes direction but there is no candle body swallowing 7
Candle 9 - Yes the close of this candle to give the sound signal and the arrow, 9 candle swallowed the body of candle 8
Candle 10 - Yes the close of this candle to give the sound signal and the arrow, candle 10 swallowed the body of 9
Candle 11 - here not to give any sign, because the market changes direction but there is no candle body swallowing 10
Candle 12 - Yes the close of this candle to give the sound signal and the arrow, candle 9 swallowed the candle body 11

Note: The indicator have to have the option to choose what time we want to analyze and be compatible with windows 7

Hi .. you can come back to see my http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=433363 topic
I've been with Aristides in another forum and there he left this message (Hello all, I think I jvbs wants know what, I have it working on TradeStation MQL4 but I dont know (yet).

this pseudocode Should be good for a programmer:

If c [1]> o [1] then the prev_up_o = [1]​​;
If c [1] <a [1] = the prev_d_o then [1];
if c> prev_d_o then bearish;
if c <prev_up_o then bullish;

c [1] is previous bar close
c is current bar close

cheers,
Aristides.

It was very good that can already do this with the indicator that I need.
Thanks in advance
And a thank you very much if you can help me

Hi,
sorry to interupt but I need a little help with a small matter... I'm new to trading FRX, I'm using MT4, my charts are candle sticks with a bollinger band. I was told this site is riddled with geniuses, so i will ask the question?
I'm looking for an alert to load into my system, if possible the alert should only trigger when the green indicator breaks the upper band not the red and it should only trigger when the red indicator breakes the lower band not the green!!!

So if the red breaks the upper band no alert, if the green breaks the upper band an alrert is triggered.......
So if the green breakes the lower band no alert, if the red breakes the lower band an alert is triggered....
If there is a bit of software that can do this, or someone fancies a challenge, this would be great... oh can I please have the instructions how to load into my system if someone has this or cdesigns it. Many Thanks for any help you can give...
BBB..

Hello Traders, Coders and all others. Have question, Is it possible to add a alert to either ATR or any other indicator that measures range per candle. Example. I would like to have a indicator that measures range of 1 Hr Candle. If it is set to say 18. If at the close of the candle the range from high to low is 18 or less signal. If it is 19 No signal. I track 12 pairs and I am looking for conditions, This is a scanner perhaps so that I do not have to look at the pairs at the end of each hour. Thanks.

Yes it is possible, although I suggest you post your request in one of the 'I code your indicators for free' threads, where other programmers are more likely to see it. I am too busy with other projects, to undertake any new programming work.
