It would be great to have signals on H4 and then follow it with a corresponding signal on the LTF Renko chart, but it appears your indicator is password protected.

No thanks, I can see 2 failed signals in your screenshot and I can bet you going forward those failed signals will disappear.

Just for fun, I loaded it into a tester to see what happens. It does not seem to repaint the signals, but it does give out false ones...He did warn about it above.
So one would have to filter out good from the bad signals... Its not a bad tool, but I find it rather unnecessary. You can find potential reversal/continuation points yourself...and then do the filtering to determine if its a likely point or not. This just add an arrow.... and at some reversal points it does not add anything...
But hey, Loveguitar is clearly using it to his advantage, combining it with other tools and making it work for him. I am guessing from the screen above that he didn't take the first buy as RSI was bellow 30. Combine with S/R and you have a solid strategy. Just not sure you need renkos in it.
So, thanks for sharing the tool Loveguitar.
Best, Josh

Kudos to you for doing the dirty work.
I looked again and I saw that he doubled down on his loosing position before the 3rd signal came and he took the buy @18:01:06.
There was about 18 hours interval between his first buy and second buy orders, price was going south when the third arrow appeared. If he had taken the 1st arrow signal, he'd be in deep shit.
The thing with arrow signal indicators are you don't get to know what principle the coders use to obtain their signals, but if it does not repaint, you can place it on a HFT and trade it from a LTF with filters.

I am not sure if there is any advantage to it, as a fair amount of analysis/filtering is needed to validate the signal...makes the signal kinda superfluous.
A good quick way to determine if something repaints or not, that I use is this. Make a template with the indicators and save it. Then load strategy tester in your mt4 using any ea with visual. Once it starts moving, I load the template and let it run for a little while. Then I pause, take a picture, then re-load the template again and take another picture. Now compare the two and you see whats up.
I am sure if one was to look at the source code, you would find something rather simple - crossover of some type - adx,ma, macd...etc. Nothing more.
I don't see why go through all that when you could arguably, get a much "clearer"/ accurate signal from a 10 pip renko chart...or just 4h itself with MACD/SR/pivot etc..
Then, go hunt for an entry on LTF, as you have suggested. Again, please note the sheer awesomeness of Davits Pivots.
Best, Josh

So right no obvious advantage, Davit's Pivots is similar to the one I use, they plot exact same levels which are respected (based on fib extensions/retracements), but you have to keep adjusting the date on Davit's pivots.
The Fib Pivot's done for you no daily alterations.

As far as I have noticed, Davits pivots update at weeks start automatically. I have not adjusted mine in any way.

That's what he said, and I noticed that the Pivot (Blue line) remains same thru the trading week then the pivots become weekly levels for targets, when I update it daily I get the same levels as my Fib Pivots.

I should probably have moved down to the 3 pip as well today. There is so little action. Congrats on making pips from this.
Best, Josh
P.S. I am hoping for a 123 within a 123 entry here...lets see if it happens....regardless, i have gotten rather good at keeping myself safe, but can get frustrating.
