Dots - MetaTrader 5용 지표

The Dots indicator is based on an indicator developed by TrendLaboratory in 2006. The indicator shows current trend direction by placing colored dots on the main chart. Blue dots indicate an uptrend, red dots indicate a downtrend.

The indicator's calculations are not based on the standart indicators of the MetaTrader platform. The calculation is based on cosine of a price change angle. The trader can set several input parameters of the indicator:

//+-----------------------------------+
//| Indicator input parameters        |
//+-----------------------------------+
input uint Length = 10;                // Depth of smoothing
input uint Filter = 0;                 // parameter allowing to filter price surges without adding display lags.
input Applied_price_ IPC=PRICE_CLOSE_; // Applied price
input int PriceShift=0;                // Vertical indicator shift in points
input int Shift=0;                     // Horizontal indicator shift in bars

Originally this indicator has been written in MQL4 and was first published in the Code Base on 09.06.2015.
