The symbol that is drawn by an indicator is controlled by SetIndexArrow syntax of and indicator.

SetIndexArrow(0,233);
SetIndexArrow(1,234);

These numbers are the Ascii Codes of 233/2344 in the WingDings font and it prints that font character on your chart. To return to the small dot, change both values back to 159.

If you want to try some other fun symbols change to
108 (Bigger dot)
40
58
71/72
171
175

You will need to recompile the indicator, and it will become effective immediatly.

To Chart11610,

Thanks for you help. That was easy. Do you have any idea what this indicator does to calculate the dot?

Wackena,

I'm sorry for being picky here, but I like the Dot. I would like to use the newest version of the SH_SilverTrendSig but I already have arrows on my chart showing the 5/9 cross, thanks to OrangeRoshan, post #158. Could you upload a file or show how to put the dot back in MetaEditor.

I have gone to the web site that is shown in the SH_SilverTrendSig. It looks like Russian. Do you by any chance know how this indicator works? What is it?

Thanks you all your help.

Hi judex001,

I just started using your tool today but my charts don't look the same as your latest ones. I downloaded the latest files from your blog and compiled them but my charts still look very similar to your initial release of these files. I also don't have any arrows and I only have one moving average instead of 2.

Am I missing something in my configuration?

Thanks,
Andrew

I see that the AUDUSD may have some promise for a trend reversal.

Things are in transition, but here are the signals:

1. Sniper crossed up from below -200.
2. Silver gave a blue dot.
3. 5,9 had crossed up, but now is back down. (so, just have to wait for the 5,9 to cross up again).

I missed the first time that the 5,9 crossed, but on the next cross, I think it might be a good entry.

I also know that there is a red silvertrend dot, but that will disappear if the trend goes to the up side.


Does anyone have any thoughts? (Even Abid's Stochs are showing crossed up from OS).

At the moment to keep things simple:

The cross of the 5/9 signals entry, but the dreaded whipsaw sometimes changes that, even on the 4hr. Simply because, MAs are lagging indicators.

Therefore, on the 4hr, wait for the dot to appear (in my case I change it to red for sell & viceversa), wait for the next bar to formed. Then:

1) Look for a trend change (the 5/9) to confirm this. The angle of the 9SMA will tell you this)
2) Look for the crossing of 5/9 (might lose some good pips, but its safer)
3) Switch around 1hr, 30mins charts to see when the dot is already there. Dont want to see it do any David Cooperfield stuff!
4) Enter trade

Ive notice the dots can teleport itself to other bars, which is cool when you are watching star trek, but not when you are trading 20m lots! It does this because the trend has changed.

Eg:
Red dot appear, so you wait for the next bar to appear and whammo, you make an entry to sell. Then after a couple of hours, you noticed your are -40pips! What Happened? You manually backtest, and couldnt find a similar scenarion, where: Usually when a dot appear, the price starts to move into your direction but this time, and its still going the opposite direction even after 5 bars!!

This is where the 5/9 helps. Do not enter any position until the 5/9 confirms it!! But when it does, make pips is all you will be doing.

A suggestion of exit would be:

1) 1 bar after the opposite dot appear (look at the slope/angle of the 5/9 to confirm trend change); or
2) the 5/9 crosses

I hope that will help a bit.

Happy Trading!

So far this method has been perfect on 4h charts. This is real trades not demo.So far 7 out 7. 0 for 1 on hour chart. I will never trade this method on any other time frame than 4 hour again. It's the best system I have ever seen. I am the reason why I am not up over 300 pips this week. I have been exiting my trades almost as soon as it goes my direction. When you feel like everytime you open a postion it seems to reverse on you, it makes you think" get out before it turns". So I set some rules for myself to avoid this. I set my stop 35-40 pips away unless there is a major support or resistance level closer. I am using fib lines and support/resistance lines to tp. Thanks for sharing your method. May God bless you.

Hi Judex!

In your Tlatlomi Method document you state the values 1-4 for the Risk Model of the Vegas indicator. Which specific values do you use for the different currency pairs?

Many thanks!

Sorry, I'm a newbie, please kindly guide me on this method!

5 is 5 Exponential Moving Average and 9 is 9 Simple Moving Average, isn't it?

That's right

I carefully read your words :
3) Switch around 1hr, 30mins charts to see when the dot is already there. Dont want to see it do any David Cooperfield stuff!

what happen if on 4H the last dot is red, but when I turn back to 30M teh last dot is blue, and on 1H the last dot is blue...like happened now on my GBP/USD Chart (05:03 am GMT).

I only work with larger timeframes (4H - Daily - Weekly) so i'm sorry i can't answer this question.

1) 1 bar after the opposite dot appear (look at the slope/angle of the 5/9 to confirm trend change); or

if there is a degree for the angle...what is it?

I don't think there's a fixed number for the angle : if the lines are parallel, that's not enough for a trend change. Look to see the angle of the crossing lines. The larger the angle, the stronger the trend is expected to be.


Please kindly advis on this! Thanks!
