"TD3" == "Forex trend histo" (to cut it short, just this post here : https://www.forex-tsd.com/forum/debates-discussions/116-something-interesting-please-post-here/page185#comment_595169 )

Sorry guys, but again the same old, same old ...

Dear mladen,

I was hoping that you could modify the TD-2 and TD-3 indicators to alert and paint the current bars when they aligned? As indicated by the arrows in the chart below?

Thanks for your consideration in this challenge.

Too good to be true.

michaelB:
The source code contains "high...a sure sign of repainting.

Thanks for the heads up PT, Michael, & Mladen. And Michael, thanks for the tip on what to look for in the code. You all have saved me a lot of time testing a strategy using this. Some people may know how to successfully use repainting indicators to their advantage but, for me such indicators are a waste of time. If it appears too good to be true, indeed it is.

friendly regards,

It is not what you have to look for.

An example : stochastic does the same thing (highest high an lowest low) and it never ever repainted since the first day it existed. Look for negative values in indexes (and that is what those call have in them - negative values instead of positive) See the explanation for that at this post : https://www.forex-tsd.com/forum/debates-discussions/116-something-interesting-please-post-here/page184#comment_594931 . If those were "+" it would not repaint, but then the values would not be even close to what it is giving

I did some negative to positive as you mentioned

Will you please check it, is it correct or not ?

Thanks in advance

It has this part too :

ExtMapBuffer1=smax;

ExtMapBuffer2=smax;

That means that it changes results for the future bar too in one instance (the second instance). I recommend that you leave all as is since as far as I am aware of, that indicator (Silver trend) was designed to repaint from the beginning and the applied logic was with that in mind : to make that kind of indicator. If we had a description (the idea of it) than maybe we could intervene and make it correct (if possible, of course), but this way I am afraid that it is a Sizifz job to try what the author exactly wanted

got it Master

Thanks for the kind explanation but believe me it is too hard to even correct the code

Will you please suggest an indicator which alert me just advance when rsioma become bullish or bearish and which is non repaint ?

Thanks

Did you check this thread : https://www.mql5.com/en/forum/177347

As far as I know RSIOMA does not repaint so any version that alerts from that thread should do

This is nrp Mladen gave us to replace the solar wind types, not sure if it was posted this way or not.

 

Combine 2 MACD indicators

Hello,

I have been looking at MACD indicators and I have found 2 that do what I was looking for and I'm wondering if it would be possible to combine the 2 to do what I would like in order to save some screen space? I wanted to post this question here in case it is possible then the end result indicator will be posted here and it will have an alert function in it.

The MACD Email Alert Final has most of the features I need like Input settings for sound, email, MA cross, Histo change, Signal line cross, EMA and SMA settings etc. But what it doesn't have the MACD with crossing does have. It's the plotting of vertical bars on the chart when the histo changes and the MA's cross. But what would be better if the trader could have it in the settings to pick if they want it to plot vertical bars on/off for histo change, signal line cross and MA cross AND this would be added into the MACD Email Alert Final indicator.

So basically, I'm asking to have the code taken from the MACD with crossing indicator to plot the vertical lines on the chart and have it added to the MACD Email alert final indicator and have it where in the settings the trader can choose to either plot vertical lines for MA cross, Histo change and Signal line cross ON or OFF individually.

Personally, I'm just wanting to be notified by sound, pop up and email when the Histogram crosses above/below zero and to have the vertical line plotted on the chart where it happened. But I know there will be other traders that want the other crossing notifications so I'm hoping it can be done with all crossings. Also, being able to set which vertical bars get plotted on/off can help with the clutter on the screen.

I hope I have been clear with the changes needed but if not let me know and I'll try and clear it up.

Thanks in advance,
