Hi Hanover, i have an indicator that i think it is a very useful indicator, so i am sharing it on your thread. It measures distance between 2 simple ma's. It only reads the time frame it is placed on, however i think it will be better if it can read MTF's...... can u edit it so that it reads multiple time frames(m1-mn). All help will be appreciated. Thanx

Hi Hanover, thanx for the update, but it is not quite what i was asking for. I was asking for the indi to show all time frames distance between the ma's.....for example: if i am using MA5 & MA35- it should show the distance btwn 5&35 for all timeframes..M1(2) M15(9) M30(12) H1(20) H4(23) D1(23) W1(28) MN(50)...something of this sort is what i was meaning, sorry for my lack of clarification, but english is not my first language....please let me know if it can be done. many thanks....

Hi Hanover, how are u? I have come to trust ur programming abilities and expertise, thank u for ur kindness. I have a few indicators that i am using for trading a basket of currencies.It opens an offilne chart of 3 pairs that update just like a live chart.The problem is with the ex4 u cannot change the pairs (it creates a chart of gbpusd,eurusd,eurgbp) but i want to be able to get a basket chart of as many pairs as i choose. Can u make it so that the the indi will allow the user to select as many pairs as they would like? Please let me know if it is something u can do in a jiffy.The hedge indi works perfectly, so I want it exactly like the hedge indicator but with the ability to select my own pairs. I went thru the stress of finding the original files used to make the hedge indicator so i have attached them for u. I think it will make it easier for u to understand what i mean. Thanks again and God bless.

Hodgires


ps: the hodgires basketcharts is a script..the other two are indicators. The hedge chart works best when applied on eurjpy chart, and then u have to open it from offline. I think u might find them useful as well.

I'm sorry, but it's not possible to modify .EX4 files. You would need to supply the .MQ4 file, if you want a programmer to work on it.

Also, I'm too busy at the moment to take on any more large programming jobs (although I'll maybe consider work that seems like it will take < 1 hour).

Hi Hanover, the two mq4 files used to create the 3hedge.ex4 file have already been provided in my prv message (Hodgires BasketCharts.mq4, Hodgires Period_Converter_Opt.mq4 ). Kindly let me know if it will take longer than 1hr to combine them into a single mq4 file that will functon as the 3hedge.ex4 file. If this is the type of coding you normally charge for, please let me know how much u will charge to do the job, and i will let u know to go ahead or to disregard it. Thanx again.

Hodgires,

I'm afraid this is likely to be a moderately complex job, especially as I can't view the .EX4 to see what the end result should look like. I'm currently working full time on finishing and testing a big EA for a local client (I live in New Zealand), and also working as fast as I can to launch a major product over the next week or so.

I hope that you can find another programmer to do the work.

David

Here are a bunch of indicators to try. The one that I renamed "horizontal price alert good v1" was the one I used to have repeating alerts in a range, and drag and drop price levels.

Hi, I noticed that the alert that I used in the above post resets it's place on the chart when MT is restarted, not a good feature. I ended up using the attached alert, that I modified to repeat. It is not drop and drag, but does the job of keeping my trendline alerts in place. There is another version of it in the price pack above that does not repeat alert.
Note, if you have some programming ability, the alerts that are instructed to play sound, seem to bypass the "alert enable" option. A standard alert command is directed by the "alert enable command"

As our former experience, we can use many indictors as a guide to try. Just choose the one you familiar most.

Append the text Alert_xxx to the object's description. Then (after you've attached the indy to your chart) when the bid price gets to within xxx pips of the object, the alert will trigger, and the text Alert_xxx will be removed from the description, ensuring that the alert occurs once only (per object). Each object may be either a trendline or a horizontal line.

You can change the Signature string to anything you wish. For example, if instead of using Alert_xxx you'd like to simply type ~xxx (less keystrokes),...
nice one

Hello, does anyone have the update of this Alerter?

From this post - http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...75#post4501375

This alerter uses the MT4 email function to alert you when price hits the horizontal line you place on a chart. Thanks.

I updated this indi:

  1. to run on > mt4 v600
  2. give continuous signal, not just one (set alert interval time in seconds)
  3. change background color from black to dark red if alerting - noticing easier if trading on multi window.
  4. hard coded the "~" for Signature - that is the only text needed to enter for a new line (I usually enter "~1" for 1 pip alert)
