The document describes a four-color version of the Awesome Oscillator, a histogram built from the difference between fast and slow moving averages. It cites the commonly used 5- and 34-period simple moving averages applied to the median price, while allowing…
MultiWPRTrend_x10 displays Williams Percent Range oscillator readings across ten timeframes. Each line represents the oscillator for one timeframe, giving a compact view of how readings compare across multiple horizons. The indicator colors a line orange…
This document explains an indicator that overlays selected price data from another symbol or timeframe in the current chart’s subwindow. The user chooses the instrument, chart period, and candle price field, with options including open, close, high, low,…
This document describes an indicator for calculating the average price at which a group of orders would close at breakeven. The trader creates virtual orders and manually sets their volumes; the indicator then computes the combined average price. Orders can…
This document describes an Expert Advisor that generates a trading signal when a Q2MA indicator changes cloud color as a bar closes. An input setting can invert the signal direction, allowing the system to trade against the indicator’s implied trend. The…
The document describes an oscillator that applies a stochastic calculation to the Relative Vigor Index (RVI). Both indicators are presented as tools for identifying overbought and oversold market conditions, and the combined measure is intended to emphasize…
This expert-advisor method combines Commodity Channel Index readings across four bars with open and close prices across three bars. It evaluates entry conditions shortly before a bar closes, and opens a trade only when the advisor has no existing position.…
The Mass Index is presented as an indicator for searching for trend reversals, using changes in the range between each period's high and low. Its underlying idea is that a widening trading range raises the indicator, while a narrowing range lowers it. The…
The indicator uses five symmetrical Keltner channels with different deviation thresholds to color candles according to trend direction and breakout strength. When price breaks a higher-deviation channel, the candle receives a brighter shade. Upward moves use…
This article describes a MQL5 library that caches a symbol’s rate data so repeated time-series queries can reuse an initialized array. Its examples focus on bar shifts and related series operations, such as retrieving open, high, low, close, volume, and time…
This indicator builds a ZigZag-style line from turning points in a simple moving average (SMA). At SMA maximum points, it connects the corresponding high prices; at minimum points, it connects the corresponding low prices. The displayed line color…
This note describes ATR_Normalize, an indicator attributed to Larry Williams, that scales a moving average of the close-to-low distance by a moving average of true range, then multiplies the ratio by 100. It presents the measure as a way to identify when…
Jurik Volty is described as a standalone measure of market volatility and as an input that helps Jurik smoothing adapt to changing conditions. The indicator uses two parameters: a volatility period and a price series. Its purpose is to show when volatility…
The Simple Slope is a price-trend oscillator calculated from the difference between the current close and the close a chosen number of periods earlier, divided by that period count. Its single adjustable input is the calculation period. This expresses…
This document describes a MACD crossover trading system on GBP/USD four-hour bars. With MACD settings of 12/26/9, it opens buys when MACD moves above its signal line and sells when it moves below, reversing or closing positions according to the crossover.…
This document explains an example workflow for recording order information from a MetaTrader expert advisor in a CSV file for later analysis. The example opens trades in a selected direction and treats take-profit and stop-loss closures virtually through…
This document describes a MetaTrader 5 alert bot based on the relative strength index. It specifies a 30-period RSI calculated from weighted prices, with a buy alert when the indicator is at or below 20 and a sell alert when it is at or above 80. The upper…
This indicator classifies volatility as compression, normal, or expansion by ranking the current Average True Range (ATR) against its values over a rolling lookback window. Unlike a fixed ATR cutoff, the percentile rank adapts to the instrument and…
The document introduces the DiNapoli Stochastic, a smoothed version of the traditional Lane stochastic oscillator available in MetaTrader 5. It attributes the indicator to a description in Joe DiNapoli’s book on trading with DiNapoli Levels. The stated…
This document describes a chart indicator that identifies the candlesticks with the highest and lowest volume within a user-selected lookback period. Its sole input is the period used for the calculation, so the marked bars change as the window changes. The…
This indicator presents Bill Williams’s Trading Zone concept as a histogram. It classifies the zone by comparing the direction of the current Accelerator Oscillator (AC) and Awesome Oscillator (AO) bars. When both point upward, the zone is marked upward;…
This Expert Advisor combines ADX_Cross_Hull_Style color changes with an UltraXMA trend filter. It opens a trade when a new indicator color point appears at bar close, provided the filter supports the direction. It closes positions on an opposing entry signal…
The described expert advisor combines Fibonacci Arcs with two moving averages and trades price breakouts. It is said to operate on the open candle and includes configurable take-profit, stop-loss, trailing, break-even, equity-risk, and maximum-trade…
The Trend Trigger Factor (TTF) is presented as an oscillator for identifying trends and possible reversals. The document attributes the method to M. H. Pee and a 2004 article in a technical analysis magazine. It identifies three configurable inputs: the…
