mtf painting style
hey guys,
can you fix this so it carries on painting like it looks when you first load it on a chart, with flat lev for each htf bar?
instead of going all squiggly after its been loaded
i.e. each level at close of bar or refresh by some time division of htf?
this indicator is from TSD but i dont know the term to search for this way of mtf painting if its been done already
cheers n good trading
Use this one. You will not have any of those problems with it
Have a nice weekend

Hi Zigflip - I have two indicators that I'd like programmed into an EA, could you assist? Many thanks in advance.
custom indicator
Hello friends,
I tried to make my own custom indicator, but i can't get it to compile. the indicator is supposed to draw the h8 support and resistance levels in any chart lower than 8 hours. i was planning to use it on the 1m time frame as i'm tired of doing it manually and also i wanted to make an ea out of it. i have been gaining a lot of pips with out loss so i think it will be a good tool. please let me know what i'm doing wrong and fix it if you want.
thanks

Shift bar for custom indicator in separate windows
I have problem when add shift option for indicator, it's show a number of emty value when I set shit in minus value.
How to code indicator to shift with current bar in which can set both plus and minus number.

What are lines like this : double X = (prevC < prevO -- prevH + (prevL*2) + prevC) intended to do?
For start you will have to rewrite those to conform to mql coding rules

It is normal : applying negative shift, you shift all in the past, and since you do not know future values, there must stay a gap of unfiled values at the rightmost part of your chart
I have problem when add shift option for indicator, it's show a number of emty value when I set shit in minus value. How to code indicator to shift with current bar in which can set both plus and minus number.

Thank you, mladen.
As in the picture, Is there other method to enter at specific shift indicator as I show in picture.
Thank you in advance.
