I have a beginner question. Is it possible to define our own MA applied_price ??
As we see the formula for calling MA is : https://docs.mql4.com/indicators/ima

not really. About 99.9 % of videos on candlesticks only describe how they look like, but only a small fracture give some hints what else is important. Think I never saw a good video on inside bars/engulfings. But imho some articles from fxkeys.com are worth to read, e.g.

The one @Lowphat has posted is giving the same signals as my current WIP version. So as long as we’re using iCustom to test why not take that one?

It should be possible to derive a function for direct EA use from only one of our approaches, no matter which one. The logic of the algorithm demands to keep track of current and previous…[Read more]

What about the one posted by @Lowphat here which is already part of the v.1.2 ?

When forward testing I didn’t notice any repainting, and peak through areas match with simplex indicator so the logic should be also good.

Anybody agrees or disagrees?

Remarks to v1.2:

SwingPeriod – Not needed

Missing functions before main logic:

FFCAL -> avoid trading before and after news (default 30 min.)

Max. Spread -> Don’t trade if Spread >max.

Trading Hours -> trade only from StartHr (int) to EndHr (int)

TradeOnMonday -> allow trading on Monday (true/false)

TradeOnFriday -> a…[Read more]

The MQH can come later, when everything is stable.

The MQH can come later, when everything is stable.

G.

in real-time (not history tester) it runs perfect so far.

could be a problem on my end though

Came back from the weekend and see great posts

I saw @Lowphat posted in the ‘chat’ thread an indicator that is according to GG53 rules regarding the peak-throughs so I updated the EA.  Place the ClearMethod.mq4 inside ‘Indicator’ folder.

Thanks @Lowphat for contributing.

The entry is still at the bar ‘Close’ and places Stops at…[Read more]

We were working on the same thing. I found it over here, including a good pdf description.

@Lowphat: I’m currently debugging my CLEAR function, so you might save some work and wait for mine … or … see who’s faster!

@gg53: is your P&T identical to Clear Method or only similar?

I followed G.’s proposal over here and…[Read more]

This indicator keep on ‘shouting’.. I guess that is the problem..

Not really – this is caused by the bug, but it’s not the reason for the bug.

@Lowphat:

all the loops seem odd.

I don’t think so!

prev_calculated == 0 still seems strange.

No, this if is intended to perform calculations that only should run when loading the indicator, and…[Read more]

That’s correct, but nobody will improve his coding or even learn the basics of coding by just downloading and compiling. I appreciate @tankhang ‘s attitude. The door for assistance is always open.

Yes, at least there’s some striking similarity. In shved’s version, that show testing button function seems to be removed (whatever it is for, I did not check).
