I will code your EAs and Indicators for no charge

If I understand you correctly - it cannot be done.
A fractal need 2 bars to the right for the calculations, so cannot be drawn any earlier

I saw an indie some time ago that let you define the fractal (or pivot). For example, you could make it a high or low with just one bar on either side.

Try this one, it does what you want but it is not in MTF mode. Maybe someone might help to make it MTF.

Take care.

Hi All - Not sure if I can post the request here. I've seen once before, the local time will show "on" the candle. Does anyone have this indicator?

Best regards,

KO

I think you mean BarClock Alerts. I have attached it here some times, pls. use forumsearch or google site:forexfactory.com + BarClock alerts

can anyone please help me?
I want to call the Tenken Sen value in this function:
int signal()
{
int signal=2;

// i need here the codes using iCustom-----
//after that something like

if(Tanken Sen<30) signal=0;
if(Tanken Sen>70) signal=1;
return(signal);
}
Thanks

TQ... it took me 2 days for it. I used many key words and just can't find it. Anyhow it is now what am looking for. Thanks again.

Hi there ,
I have very special idea for everyone who blames MT4/MT5 for not drawing the right and correct trendlines with the Linear Charts whcih MT4/MT5 is using.
May any Coder could change this Period Converter from the normal MT4 -Arithmetic -Linear Charts to Logarithmic Chart Scale.
I think this is the only way to get Logarithmic Charts in MT4/MT5 for all technical Trendline-Lovers.
here is the indi and the source code:

Readme:

I. Features:
This is an improved version of period converter for MT4 based on the
MT4's default period converter by metaquotes.
The default period converter script do not support real-time refreshing,
and consume lots of CPU (50%-9x%) making the whole system slow.
Also, the default one is a script which do not save when you exit MT4,
so you have to apply every converter script again after restarting, quite
annoying.

This one fixed all above problems:
1. Real-time updating or custom interval millisecond level updating.
2. Low CPU cost, average 5%-10% or less.
3. Works as an indicator, so can be saved and reloaded during restart.
4. There is no one converter per chart limitation as it is not script
any more, you can only use one window as source to generate as many
new timeframe chart as possible.
5. Auto updating if there is new history block loaded.

II. How to use:
Copy the mq4 file to your MT4 indicators folder (experts\indicators)
to install it as an indicator, NOT script. then in the custom indicator
list, attach period_converter_opt to the chart you want.
It support 4 parameters:
PeriodMultiplier: new period multiplier factor, default is 2
UpdateInterval: update interval in milliseconds,
zero means update real-time. default is zero.
Enabled: You can disable it without remove it with this option.

Other parameters are comments or for debugging, it is safe to ignore them.

Also Make sure you have Allow Dll imports option checked in common tab or
it won't work

After that, File->Open Offline to open the generated offline data. then
the offline data will be updated automatically.

As long as you keep the source chart open and the converter indicator
running, the generated chart including indicators inside will always
be updated. also you can close the generated chart and open again
later from File->Open Offline without problem.

If you want to quit MT4, you can leave those offline chart as other
normal online charts. when you start MT4 next time, those charts will
also be loaded and updated.


III. Notes:
1. Do NOT uncheck the "offline chart" option in offline chart common properties.
or after MT4 restart, it will treat that chart as online chart and request
the data from server, resulting empty chart window.
2. You can attach more than one converter to same window with different
PeriodMultiplier, e.g: you can attach 3 converter with
PeriodMultiplier = 2, 4, 10 to M1 to generate M2, M4, M10 at the same time.
It is even ok to use the M1 chart to generate Hourly chart like H2, which
only cost a few more CPU resource during initial conversion. but usually
most server don't have much data for those short period. resulting the
generated data isn't long enough for long period. so it is suggested
to use Hourly/Daily charts as source when needed.
3. The real-time updating mode updates quotes as fast as possible, but as
this is done via script, and MT will skip calling start() function when
your PC is busy and lots of quotes income. anyway, this seldom happen,
and you can at least get 10 updates each seconds which is much more
than enough.
4. The offline chart don't have a bid line showing in chart, but all data
in the chart including the indicators is still being updated,
so don't worry. you can show the bid line by unclick the "offline chart"
option in chart properties. but which don't helps much and if you forget
to check "offline chart" option before exit. it will cause errors and
become empty on next startup. you have to close the window and open
again from File->Open offline, which don't worth the trouble.

IV. History:
2014.03.10 1.6 Modified to support build 600 and later
2009.08.07 1.5 Added 3 options.(ShiftTiming,GMTShift,OmitDigit)
2005.12.24 1.4 faster to detect if data changed by removing float point
operations, added support to output CSV file in real time.
OutputCSVFile = 0 means no CSV.
OutputCSVFile = 1 means CSV + HST
OutputCSVFile = 2 CSV only, no HST .
(useful if you want to generate CSV for builtin periods)
CSV Filename will be the same as HST file except the extension.
added safe checking for PeriodMultiplier.
2005.12.04 1.3 Fixed missing data when there is large amount of data
loaded in several blocks, and support auto updating
when new history is loaded.
2005.11.29 1.2 Additional fix for missing data and server changing.
2005.11.29 1.1 Fixed missing partial data after restart.
Reinitialize after changing server or data corrupted.
2005.11.28 1.0 Initial release

Attachment indicator:

Can you please post the indie.Thanks for your help.

This one shows up on current bar. It will be nice if someone can make it mtf.

No it doesn't

Hi guys

i didn't know where should i ask this question, i wanted to open a topic to find the indicator i need but i figured maybe i can try here first some of you guys night know something like this or maybe you were interested to code it

i'm making a trading system for scalping 1M charts and up until now it's been quite successful but like so many systems it works best in trending markets
and since i don't have enough monitor real state i can't monitor all the pairs that i want to trade

so long story short i wan't something like this

currency pair | M1 candle range | M3 candle range | M5 candle range | M10 candle range | and so on
EURUSD | 1.2 pip | 4.5 pip | 7 pip | 27 pip |
EURJYP | 3 pip | 8 pip | 13 pip | 37 pip |
and so on

if it's not clear i want:
1. a dashboard that shows me the range of the candle that's open right now for any currency pair that i want
2. i want it to have 4 different colors for pip sizes, if the candle is bull (green) / if it's bear (red) / if the bull candle is bigger than x pips (blue) / if the bear candle is bigger than x pips (black)

do any of you guys know something like this / heard about some thing like this?

thanks in advance ^_^

sorry the post was uploaded 2 time by mistake

Hello Gumrai, the indicator shows on current bar and am using it right now on a 30mins time frame. Please can you make it mtf.
Thanks in advance

Hi fellow traders.

Are the coders still around? I need some help with a very simple indi. So for what its worth, here goes:

The indi I use in my strategy simply draws a box from x hours/minutes to y hours/minutes. This begin and end time can be chosen by the user. When it draws the box it also draws 3 or 5 TP levels above and below the box. These TP levels are based on the Fibonacci sequence.

My request for anyone interested:

Instead of drawing TP levels based on Fibonacci, I would like to be able to set the levels to my liking. I would also like the indi to have an extra line that acts as buffer. For example: A 20pip box is drawn and a line is drawn 5 pips above(Buy Line) and 5 pips below(Sell Line) the box. Furthermore there are TP lines at 15, 25 and 50pips ect above/below the buy/sell lines. All these levels should be chosen by the user.

I hope someone can help. If you need more info please pm me

Pete

Nice work sir..
pls can you write a "Pb Channel" channel that does not repaint ?

thanks.. waiting 4 your reply..

Sorry, I have no time at the moment.

The indicator may show an arrow on the current bar, but it won't necessarily be a correct arrow. It is impossible to have a correct fractal on a bar with no candle to its right

hello Gumrai..
pls can u write a non repianting indi like "PB channel" nd pls what does half length mean??

I am pretty busy at the moment and so have little spare time to help people out here. I like to do what I can, when I can, but I can't spread myself too thin. Sometimes I see a request here an I think that it will be fun to do and make a change from the more complicated coding that I am usually doing.
I see that you attached the ex4 file for the indi, but you need to supply the mq4 file. I am not saying that I will help you out if you supply the mq4, but I will take a look and if it looks like an interesting project and I have the time, I might.
I have no idea what half length is. Is it an input in the indi or something?

Hi Sir can you add an email alert to this indicator please
