help with indicator

 

Hi,

As I newbie with programming I need some help with indicator.

It is very simple and I do this manually on daily basis.

I check current price of a pair and compare it with SMA and then score currency. i.e.

I have eigth currencies: USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, AUD, NZD, CHF, CAD

and every day I check each cross and its position to SMA.

SMA on EURUSD = 1.40 and current price is 1.32 so i give 1 point to USD and -1 point to EUR

SMA on GBPUSD = 1.60 and current price is 1.52 so i give 1 point to USD and -1 point to GBP

SMA on EURGBP = 0.90 and current price is 0.95 so i give 1 point to EUR and -1 point to GBP

So for I have:

EUR: 0

USD: 2

GBP: -2


I belive that it is simple to code it and display on screen. Currently result of my manual work loks like on attached image.

Anyone can help me please :)

 

Hi piter

I agree it's not too complicated, but it is more complicated than someone would give you the whole code for it in the forum. Your best bet is to raise a job in the Freelance section mate.

Cheers

What you're trying to achieve is calculating currencies strengths. It's already done in so called cluster indicators. You may have a look at this article or codebase example. Indicators for both MT4 and MT5 are available.

There has been a recent rise of interest in the cluster analyses of the FOREX market. MQL5 opens up new possibilities of researching the trends of the movement of currency pairs. A key feature of MQL5, differentiating it from MQL4, is the possibility of using an unlimited amount of indicator buffers. This article describes an example of the creation of a multi-currency indicator.
