Non Repaint Cycle or High/Low Indicator?

Hello Everyone,
I was wondering if anyone has an indicator that does not repaint that does a good job giving signals on the chart for possible swing highs and lows or cycle highs and lows? I will post the one I have, but it does repaint. I found this indicator here at FF at one of the threads. If someone could look at the code and see if they could stop it from repainting that would be great. I just don't know if it's possible. If it is possible to make this indicator so it does not repaint I don' care if it gives more signals, I just want the signal to stay put after the closing of the current bar. I just thought I would put this request out there to see if somebody could take a look and let me know, and at the same time maybe someone has an indicator they are using in their trading system that they could post here so I could download to try. Many thanks in advance for your time and help!!

sorry as I has not test the indicator as the old version...

anyway maybe that is what you looking for.

Thanks for your reply. I appreciate you taking the time to read my post!!

Hello everybody ... I am a new member of FF, where I found many interesting indicators and threads ... ie, I've found here, the indicator named 'CycleIdentifier' ... and need your help ... I don't know the programming language, and therefore not able to decrypt this indicator ... before using it, and possibly improve it, I would like to understand how it works ... can someone kindly explain me? what are the variables on which it is built? ...

I say 'many thanks' in advance to those who have the patience and time to help me ...

indicator just find higher point and lower point in x bars

Thank you, mtuppers, for your reply ... I would like to enclose the file, but it's impossible for a junior member like me ... so I will link the formula here ... sorry me, it's very long ... maybe that the indicator works also with the "higher or lower point in x bars", but I think it's more complex ...

no one can help me to undertand how the several conditions (and then the indicator) work?

even if you going to make it reprint free it will still give you a lot of false signals.

or you should just try rsi indicator. buy when above 40 sell when below 60.

Is somebody can modifie it? That it wouldn't clear it self when recalculating, that all signals stay

can anyone tell me which MODE it out puts the 1 or -1 reading?

Cheers

So far i know, all codes that look for Highest High / Lowest Low must be repaint (it is the nature of that rule, to find the highest or lowest price in X candles). This include : Zig Zag, Semafor, CI, etc.
There is may be a way to make it more calm (still repaint, but not heavily). Try to look at Eurusdd's thread Similarity, look for CI part. It is the best thread i found so far ....

use this indicator hand in hand with channel indicators that will help as you will now only take signals on support and resistance lines. Mainly recommend you use the shi channel indicator for this and also higly reccomend it on the hour TF as the resistance and trend is closest to that of higher TF and will not break the S and R lines that often which therefore all in all when used hand in hand with these cycle identifier indi , all your signals will be filtered with more basic tools and therefore you wont be depending on indicators but basing your trades on the fundamentals of forex the only thing that brings order to the chaos in the game SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE.

Maybe this can help ... try only in mayor

u sure ci no repaint.ex4 doesn't repaint, or readjust pts after the fact? uh????

Thank you COmar.FX for this no repaint CI.

Ci NO REPAINT.ex4
unfortunately this indicator repaints. try it on 1 minute chart and u will see

Hi COmar.FX do you think it is possible to add some alert options on the Ci no repaint indicator?

Its repaint

Hi, This is Non repaint Indicators System. Check details on YouTube and download link is there.
