Here you go Hang Cool. May I also recommend the SDX Pivots indicator. It is quite helpful and I use it everyday. It automatically plots support/resistance, pivots, daily open, yesterdays high and low, Fibonacci levels, etc. It takes a lot of hassle out of trading and can be deadly accurate with Heiken ashi smoothed, RSI, and 50, 100, and 200 MA's. Good Luck.

I would be really happy if you could help me with this

I want to use the Heiken Ashi indicator (code below) to

1) provide a signal when there is a shaven top or bottom ie the open and high are the same - signal sell (-1) or the open and low are the same - buy signal (1)

2) to provide this value on the last clossed bar not the current forming bar

Here is the code - thank you very much

i have never utilized an EA before but trade manually using heiken ashi candles and stochs, filtered by 100 SMA on H4

this one looks promising, loading it up on a demo account as we speak, most likely test H1 or H4


if I were to change this piece of code:



and replace 55 with 100 and MODE_EMA with MODE_SMA, would this change the filter to be a 100 SMA on H4?

sorry I'm very new to mql4

Hi,

I've got a different problem. I'm using the JFD Broker to test the LoneWolf EA on a demo account, however, no matter what I try, it won't place buys and sells.

My plan was actually to change the code in some places to accommodate for my ideas, but I can't get the unaltered version to work at all. I even replaced my Smooth HA indicator with the one from Otis' post. Just to have an easier time getting it to trade at all, I'm using the first version without filters and trailing.

I'm really at a loss here and any help would be appreciated....

I created this EA a while back and use it every so often during trending (non choppy) trading conditions. The EA opens a trade when color of candle changes and closes when the color of candle changes. It places trades one after another based on color changes. I also incorporated take profit, stop loss, breakeven and time management. The EA does well in higher time frames, especially in H4 during trending markets. I could never find an EA on the internet that used Heiken Ashi Smoothed in a simplistic manner. So here it is.

Hello Traders, I'm new to this forum altogether and this is my first post :-) I went back to the lonewolf and made some alterations. I altered the open and close conditions to open at the first and second bar shift, and close at the first or second. I also gave it a stop loss. Back tested 2 years for the 1 Day timeframe and got (too good to be true?) results. Will you please check it and please tell me it's not too good to be true! :-S live testing starting today. {file}
