Thanks for creating this thread Lowphat …   I just think this has some thing to do with “clear” method, and “volume”. Can you explain a little about your indicator ?

Hey, nice exercise!

But I think it would be better for practical use to have oscillator and histogram in two separate indies … easier to scale independently.

And there’s a bug in the higher timeframe section: your loop is

for (i = limit; i >= 0; i--) {

and a few lines after that you have

if (!Interpolate || y == iBarShift(NULL, TimeFrame, Time)) {

So for i = 0 the indicator will try to calculate Time[-1]. This can’t be correct at bar zero. Hence it will generate a runtime error if you add #property strict compiler directive. Some other minor changes are necessary, though, to make it run in strict mode.

s.

P.S.: You’re sure this is tagged correctly?

yes it’s a hack of clear method histogram with volume zone oscillator and one of the things i was looking at is how they both interacted with price. originally i wanted to use clear method as the trend and volume Osc. going below or above average (yellow) to detect small pullbacks for scalps.

its easier for me to forward test them when they are as close to each other as possible eventually i may make a version than combines signals and just draws one arrow on the chart_window.

ah strict mode is a great idea i always forget about that. 

thanks for the heads up :)

it also needs a SetIndexDrawBegin so the MA wont draw before it has enough bars to calculate

hah the tag. i better fix that. the things i do sometimes to keep myself amused

if anyone knows a way to make trading station show past trades on chart i can post examples of live trades i made with this indy(only a few so far) and try to go through the process of what i was thinking.

My method:

Run an empty EA on forward real account, that writes every tick into history file (hst).

Run BT on that history.
