MT Price Feed Data Quality
When working on my Currency Strength Indicators, I ran into some problems relating data quality of MetaTrader’s price feed. Apart from CS, such problems are getting even worse when calculating synthetic pairs for certain indicators or signals.
The problem is that in most timeframes there’s only a VERY limited number of…[Read more]

Thanks for pointing to hanover’s indicator. I’m having a different approach in mind, like an export function library that can be linked to any custom made indicator or script.

sin(0) = 0is fine for me, but I expectedsin(pi) = 0and256.000001 ^ (1 / 8 ) = 2,000000001. I was amazed that sin(0) is different from sin(pi).simplex replied to the topic Use R in trading in the forum Development 10 years, 6 months ago

Wow @Anti!
You’re really making some efforts to get us started with R – thanks a lot!
Hopefully I won’t be your only student at last.When doing my homework (see screenshot) I had one problem: after keying in

Hmmmm …
… a daring assumption, imho.
Looks like an advanced lesson for your R thread to check that. ;-}
Maybe I should start thinking about a csv export for R import.

Sorry guys, it took me a little longer than announced:
Some debugging had to be done. Modifications in this version as compared to the initial one:

Thanks:
In this version of the indicator, the input parameter ‘reference point’ needs to be set to a meaningful point. OOTB does not make sense in all cases.
Please see source code for details.

That’s what I assumed. Just pointed to my indicator because it might save them some work.

My Kaspersky AntiVirus says it’s harmless. That’s the best I can say.

Same case as in my reply to smallcat: without runtime details including date & time I can only speculate.

Hi smallcat:
Yes, this is the anchor in the time dimension against which the CS values are calculated. If some news like Mario’s press conference are drifting out of this lookback window, the picture may change dramatically. If you want a certain image to remain constant, you got to place this reference point on exactly the same date in both…[Read more]

Yes:
That’s what my 1st volume per session prototype does. I also chose 5 days as a lookback period.

@forexeasy: would you mind to share a link to the origin of your indicator? Might be interesting to review conceptual ideas before anyone starts to mod.
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).

Like coding and typing?

Good job:
Thanks for that – I just missed to do it.
Your mods seem to be ok. Only did a brief code review (I don’t need prefix and suffix). Please let me know if there are any more problems.
