R4M-BBMACD Indicator: Since @Tekkies has been complaining about how unreliable her TDI indicator is and that it repaints, then the door has been opened for consideration of alternative indicators that provide similar visual markings, yet are known ...

@PixelSniper... 1. "I just have good amount of time to play around, and think around." Enjoy it while you can. At my age I have my hands full with one. Time passes by much more quickly than you realize. 2. "So they try to make calculations based on ...

@PixelSniper -- dude, in one post you say you don't know what oscillators do. And in the next post you claim that oscillators won't fix "it" -- whatever "it" is... How do you go from not knowing what oscillators are to proclaiming they won't fix ...

@T4Trade -- good to know -- thanks. I plan on using it for D1 trading.

@Tekkies -- because you don't know how or when to shutup, and because you kept pushing your misinformation about repainting and MACD, we are all now aware of an alternative indicator that works better than TDI -- better visual markings, fewer "head ...

@FraterRedox -- I don't play video games, so I can't say for sure, but I think this is more fun. Especially since I get to play against low-hanging fruit like @Tekkies and @DrDave...

@Tekkies -- okay, let's say your version of TDI repaints. As to why you would want to use a repainting version all these years when there are non-repainting versions available -- only G-d knows. But that's neither here nor there. Since ...

T4Trade -- thanks. I've already started incorporating it into my EAs. Serves a similar role as TDI and provides identical visual markings. Since @Tekkies insists that TDI repaints then it seems wise to move on to BBMACD (2,13,7). What do you think?

@T4Trade -- the markets are closed -- this is drama time. @DrDick and @Tekkies continually harass @emmanuel7788. When the markets open @emmanuel7788 will be back sharing setups, providing guidance and answering questions. In the meantime he is ...

@DrDick -- love those cartoons -- they never get old, even though you've posted the same one about 50 times. Maybe it's time to revisit images.Google.com and freshen them up a bit. Oh, wait, that's @Tekkies job. She always needs to refresh something ...

Hurrah -- the organ axe grinder is back!! Time to clean-up after @Tekkies...

@hasib -- the markets are closed and the indicator has been in my hands for 30 minutes. I don't know which settings will generate the most profit. However, from earlier posts, the recommended settings that result in similar visual markings as TDI ...

Hello @hasib -- I think there are multiple versions out there. The one I'm currently experimenting with was authored by adoleh2000 back in 2005. file file

@JT96 -- the more I experiment with BBMACD (2,13,7) the more I like it. Not only does it provide the same crossings as TDI, but the signals are more pronounced. Also, it doesn't repaint!! I think BBMACD is a winner -- thank you.

Don't worry -- it will subside. @emmanuel7788 gets to have a little fun whenever @Tekkies starts up -- but notice even his "fighting" posts include useful information from BigE. @emmanuel7788 is *always* teaching -- even when on the surface it may ...

Hello @simnz -- I can't give you a precise answer, but I can throw some comments at the wall and perhaps you can then decide which ones stick... (1) Though OnTick() and OnTimer() also apply to EAs, I've been discussing indicators in this thread. So ...

(binned per thread starter’s request) Indicators for Discretionar

@hasib -- that is correct. That is called "recalculation" and it only occurs on Bar[0]. In MT4 Bars / Candles are indexed from 0 to N, where index '0' is the right-most bar that is still alive, and index 'N' is the left-most bar on the chart. ...

Trading Made Simple

@Tekkies -- wait -- I think I'm beginning to see the light. I may now understand your point of view. Since MACD and TDI use the same algebra, and since you believe they repaint, then the cause of all repainting must be algebra. Algebra is the ...

Trading Made Simple

@Tekkies -- MACD (2,13,7) uses similar algebra as TDI. Are you also going to claim that MACD repaints? MACD is one of the "built-in" indicators that is included with every MT4 installation. Are you claiming that MetaQuotes includes repainting ...

@Tekkies -- though this post is a response to yours, it really is intended for other readers and to correct your misinformation regarding TDI and repainting. According to BigE's methodology we look for green-crossing-red, right? We also look to ...
