The expert advisor combines the Commodity Channel Index with a moving average to condition CCI entry thresholds on the moving average’s direction. When the average rises, the system uses one pair of CCI levels for buying and selling; when it falls, it…
The indicator overlays four moving averages as two cloud-like histogram ranges: slow 200-period simple and exponential averages, and fast 50-period simple and exponential averages. The shaded boundaries make the relationship between faster and slower…
This document describes an automated trading system driven by a Spearman rank correlation histogram indicator, with signals evaluated at bar close. It presents three ways to trade the indicator: enter and exit on zero-line breaks; enter in overbought or…
The document briefly describes a technical indicator that smooths a derivative series and presents the result as a color-coded histogram. Its main educational point is the transformation and visual presentation of the indicator: smoothing is applied to the…
This Expert Advisor concept seeks short-term trend entries on a 15-minute chart, using moving averages on both the 15-minute and hourly charts to establish direction. After identifying the trend, it checks that price is close to the 15-minute moving average…
This document describes an automated trading system framework that combines a two-layer neural network with MACD when assessing whether to open positions. The neural network and indicator signals are analyzed together; MACD is not merely a fallback used only…
This indicator presents the direction or signal produced by ForexOFFTrendSign on a selected bar, using a colored arrow and optional sound or alert. A right-pointing arrow marks continuation of the existing trend; a diagonal arrow indicates a change and…
The document describes an RSI variant that uses an Adaptive Moving Average (AMA), attributed to Vitali Apirine. It gives two intended reasons for changing the calculation: filter out insignificant price moves and reduce the flattening of RSI values that can…
The document introduces i-sig, a semaphore-style trading indicator that analyzes the most recent five bars. It identifies the indicator’s authorship and notes that it was originally written in MQL4 and published in 2007. The document does not explain how the…
This note describes a variation on Bollinger Bands in which the upper and lower bands are smoothed separately after the standard deviation calculation. Applying smoothing at that stage can produce smoother boundaries while allowing each side to respond…
This indicator modification adds signal lines to a smoothed McClellan Oscillator. The stated motivation is that the original smoother can be difficult to use because it lacks obvious signals. The added lines are intended to make potential signals easier to…
This document describes a version of the Relative Vigor Index (RVI) that can calculate its indicator on a selected timeframe independently of the chart’s timeframe. It presents the result visually as a cloud, allowing the trader to view the higher- or…
The document outlines a candle-based trailing stop rule. The routine checks for a newly formed candle and then adjusts the stop in the favorable direction using the previous candle’s low for a long position or its high for a short position. This makes the…
This brief description presents a histogram version of the classical Relative Vigor Index (RVI). Color changes identify when the oscillator enters overbought or oversold areas, while a colored cloud between the oscillator and its signal line highlights their…
This document describes a chart overlay intended to make price history easier to inspect. Vertical lines mark hourly boundaries, with distinct colors for the starts of weeks, days, and months. Horizontal lines mark psychological round-number price levels and…
This indicator presents a smoothed DeMark oscillator as a histogram centered around zero, with values described as ranging from minus fifty to plus fifty. A configurable coloring approach can emphasize either breaks through overbought or oversold levels or…
ColorMACD_HTF is described as a colored MACD histogram with an input for selecting the timeframe used for the indicator. The example default is a four-hour period, allowing the indicator's calculation period to differ from the chart's timeframe. This offers…
The Rainbow indicator displays sixty moving averages on one chart, with their averaging periods changing gradually. Its inputs let users select the smoothing method, starting period, step sizes, an additional method-specific parameter, applied price, and…
The document introduces Williams %R as a momentum oscillator that locates the closing price within the recent high-low range over a chosen lookback period. Its scale runs from −100, where the close matches the period low, to 0, where it matches the period…
The document describes a script intended to compare MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5 performance on a computer or hosted server. It combines procedural and object-oriented tests covering calculations, arrays, sorting, strings, graphical objects, canvas…
This document describes a MetaTrader Expert Advisor that places a grid of pending orders around the current market price. When there are no open positions or pending orders, it submits five Buy Limit orders below the price and five Sell Limit orders above…
This document describes an automated trading bot that connects machine-learning models trained in Python and converted to ONNX format. It presents configurable controls for risk-based or fixed lot sizing, order limits, stop loss, and take profit, and notes…
This document describes a MetaTrader 5 indicator for sizing gold positions from a chosen account balance, risk percentage, entry price, and stop-loss price. It applies a standard risk-based calculation using the stop distance and the instrument’s tick value…
This listing explains a chart indicator intended to make the ask side of the market visible. It draws candle upper shadows using the ask price, allowing a trader to see the gap between bid and ask on the chart. The stated use case is short time frames, where…
