iRSISignAlert - indicatore per MetaTrader 5

Semaphore arrow signal indicator based on the classic Relative Strength Index oscillator leaving the overbought and oversold areas, which features alerts, sending emails and push-notifications to mobile devices.

The following changes have been made to the indicator code in order to implement the alerts, email messages and push-notifications:

1. Introduced new input parameters

   input uint NumberofBar=1;//Bar number for the signal
   input bool SoundON=true; //Enable alerts
   input uint NumberofAlerts=2;//Number of alerts
   input bool EMailON=false; //Enable mailing the signal
   input bool PushON=false; //Enable sending the signal to mobile devices
   

2. Added three new functions to the end of the indicator code: BuySignal(), SellSignal() and GetStringTimeframe()

   //+------------------------------------------------------------------+
   //| Buy signal function                                              |
   //+------------------------------------------------------------------+
   void BuySignal(string SignalSirname,      // text of the indicator name for email and push messages
                  double &BuyArrow[],        // indicator buffer with buy signals
                  const int Rates_total,     // the current number of bars
                  const int Prev_calculated, // the number of bars on the previous tick
                  const double &Close[],     // close price
                  const int &Spread[])       // spread
     {
   //---
      static uint counter=0;
      if(Rates_total!=Prev_calculated) counter=0;
   
      bool BuySignal=false;
      bool SeriesTest=ArrayGetAsSeries(BuyArrow);
      int index;
      if(SeriesTest) index=int(NumberofBar);
      else index=Rates_total-int(NumberofBar)-1;
      if(NormalizeDouble(BuyArrow[index],_Digits) && BuyArrow[index]!=EMPTY_VALUE) BuySignal=true;
      if(BuySignal && counter<=NumberofAlerts)
        {
         counter++;
         MqlDateTime tm;
         TimeToStruct(TimeCurrent(),tm);
         string text=TimeToString(TimeCurrent(),TIME_DATE)+" "+string(tm.hour)+":"+string(tm.min);
         SeriesTest=ArrayGetAsSeries(Close);
         if(SeriesTest) index=int(NumberofBar);
         else index=Rates_total-int(NumberofBar)-1;
         double Ask=Close[index];
         double Bid=Close[index];
         SeriesTest=ArrayGetAsSeries(Spread);
         if(SeriesTest) index=int(NumberofBar);
         else index=Rates_total-int(NumberofBar)-1;
         Bid+=Spread[index];
         string sAsk=DoubleToString(Ask,_Digits);
         string sBid=DoubleToString(Bid,_Digits);
         string sPeriod=GetStringTimeframe(ChartPeriod());
         if(SoundON) Alert("BUY signal \n Ask=",Ask,"\n Bid=",Bid,"\n currtime=",text,"\n Symbol=",Symbol()," Period=",sPeriod);
         if(EMailON) SendMail(SignalSirname+": BUY signal alert","BUY signal at Ask="+sAsk+", Bid="+sBid+", Date="+text+" Symbol="+Symbol()+" Period="+sPeriod);
         if(PushON) SendNotification(SignalSirname+": BUY signal at Ask="+sAsk+", Bid="+sBid+", Date="+text+" Symbol="+Symbol()+" Period="+sPeriod);
        }
   
   //---
     }
   //+------------------------------------------------------------------+
   //| Sell signal function                                             |
   //+------------------------------------------------------------------+
   void SellSignal(string SignalSirname,      // text of the indicator name for email and push messages
                   double &SellArrow[],       // indicator buffer with sell signals
                   const int Rates_total,     // the current number of bars
                   const int Prev_calculated, // the number of bars on the previous tick
                   const double &Close[],     // close price
                   const int &Spread[])       // spread
     {
   //---
      static uint counter=0;
      if(Rates_total!=Prev_calculated) counter=0;
   
      bool SellSignal=false;
      bool SeriesTest=ArrayGetAsSeries(SellArrow);
      int index;
      if(SeriesTest) index=int(NumberofBar);
      else index=Rates_total-int(NumberofBar)-1;
      if(NormalizeDouble(SellArrow[index],_Digits) && SellArrow[index]!=EMPTY_VALUE) SellSignal=true;
      if(SellSignal && counter<=NumberofAlerts)
        {
         counter++;
         MqlDateTime tm;
         TimeToStruct(TimeCurrent(),tm);
         string text=TimeToString(TimeCurrent(),TIME_DATE)+" "+string(tm.hour)+":"+string(tm.min);
         SeriesTest=ArrayGetAsSeries(Close);
         if(SeriesTest) index=int(NumberofBar);
         else index=Rates_total-int(NumberofBar)-1;
         double Ask=Close[index];
         double Bid=Close[index];
         SeriesTest=ArrayGetAsSeries(Spread);
         if(SeriesTest) index=int(NumberofBar);
         else index=Rates_total-int(NumberofBar)-1;
         Bid+=Spread[index];
         string sAsk=DoubleToString(Ask,_Digits);
         string sBid=DoubleToString(Bid,_Digits);
         string sPeriod=GetStringTimeframe(ChartPeriod());
         if(SoundON) Alert("SELL signal \n Ask=",Ask,"\n Bid=",Bid,"\n currtime=",text,"\n Symbol=",Symbol()," Period=",sPeriod);
         if(EMailON) SendMail(SignalSirname+": SELL signal alert","SELL signal at Ask="+sAsk+", Bid="+sBid+", Date="+text+" Symbol="+Symbol()+" Period="+sPeriod);
         if(PushON) SendNotification(SignalSirname+": SELL signal at Ask="+sAsk+", Bid="+sBid+", Date="+text+" Symbol="+Symbol()+" Period="+sPeriod);
        }
   //---
     }
   //+------------------------------------------------------------------+
   //|  Getting the timeframe as a string                               |
   //+------------------------------------------------------------------+
   string GetStringTimeframe(ENUM_TIMEFRAMES timeframe)
     {
   //----
      return(StringSubstr(EnumToString(timeframe),7,-1));
   //----
     }
   

3. Added a couple of calls to BuySignal() and SellSignal() functions after the indicator calculation cycles in the OnCalculate() block

   BuySignal("iWPRSign",BuyBuffer,rates_total,prev_calculated,close,spread);
       SellSignal("iWPRSign",SellBuffer,rates_total,prev_calculated,close,spread);
   

Where BuyBuffer and SellBuffer are the names of the indicator buffers for storing the buy and sell signals. As the empty values in the indicator buffers either zeros or EMPTY_VALUE must be set.

It is assumed that the only one call to the BuySignal() and SellSignal() functions will be used in the OnCalculate() block of the indicator code.
