{quote} Out at 63 +5. Does any of you use molanis? My broker gives it free with some reward points and I want to make a custom indi to show mtf distance from 34 ema (close) and whether higher or lower. If it's not worth it I will just use a dash I found (ram heavy though) and keep the rewards for a tablet.
So you want like a detrended ma oscillator with the distance of close to 34ema close? price above = plus and below = minus? line/histogram? ma line as zero? Don't use molanis but if the logic is clear and the algo is not complicated may be able to just code it in MQL

Something like the image (this one is wss indicator and says which tf is below/above 200 ema). I want to have 34 ema instead and below the circles a number saying the distance from the ema 34 close for each tf. I have the 2nd image from a dash indi which does the same thing, but adds unnecessary clutter (adds more pairs & heavy on ram).

Sorry dashboard bit over my coding skills and time, however, if you have the source file mq not ex, it can be most likely be modified fairly easily.

No source files on both. I am not looking for a dash, something simple as the first pic is much better for me as I can add it on each pair. Will look if I can find something similar for another ema with source.

Part of my system is Raghee Horner's 34 ema wave system. I think there is a thread under systems or commercial section where she describes it if you wanna check it out. She uses it to identify trends and positioning, I use it on m1 on mini swings.

27 minutes away from the feds more than likely not touching the rates...shorting this 1.080 boost would not be wise imo. I am currently long from 1.069 with a tp of 1.110..considering raising that TP to 1.1150. Good luck everyone​

I'm not following the news but 1.11 wasn't tested > big runaway GAP - chart talks.

as i said earlyer today in the other EUR USD thread ,if FOMC Statement is strong dollar and % stay unchanged there will be a huge up for the dollar (downtrend) till levels of 1.085/9 so there are levels of buying becouse the price will be fixed the next day, also we must not forget that all currencyes are linked together so we should recheck with other currency against dollar such as AUD JPY to calculate the probable finish of the hike

buy 1.0900

Think it's better if you stay out of trading during news.

Opportunist short on hourly change.

Nah, don't revenge trade, make it back with same leverage. It's late in the day to get 60 pips and it will most likely stay on during night, leaving you sleepless with high leverage.

Using big margin on opened positions is too risky and called gambling, just keep up with good trades and will cover loses in time. No one said it has to be in 2 days. I am posting my positions from time to time all of them are covered till now (5-6 posted in 5 days)
