The document introduces nonlinear regression as fitting observations with a mathematical function, often a curve, rather than a straight line. It describes minimizing the sum of squared deviations as a way to assess fit and names logarithmic, trigonometric,…
This indicator describes a simple way to display trend direction across multiple timeframes in one window. For each timeframe, it compares the latest moving-average value with the preceding value: a higher current reading marks a bullish trend, while a lower…
This document describes an Expert Advisor that generates a signal when a bar closes and the FRASMAv2 moving-average indicator changes color. It requires the compiled indicator file to be installed in the platform’s indicator folder. A supporting library is…
RJT Matches is described as a visual indicator for assessing trend direction and possible turning points. It draws match-like lines from the open of one bar to the close of the next; their inclination and head colors are used to infer trend evolution. The…
This document describes a MetaTrader 5 utility for estimating the costs of a prospective trade. It combines spread, commission, and swap charges using symbol data and trader inputs such as position size, direction, commission per lot, and expected holding…
The document describes a MetaTrader 5 indicator intended to mark buy and sell points around false breakouts of support and resistance, while also displaying dynamic levels and potential market tops and bottoms. Its stated logic identifies a top when a…
The document introduces an adaptive version of the Triple Exponential Moving Average (TEMA) that uses Jurik Volty to adjust its behavior. It compares the adaptive line with a standard TEMA, with both using a period of 50, and states that the adaptive version…
This indicator shifts MACD values by the Average True Range (ATR): when MACD is positive, it is shifted downward by ATR; when MACD is negative, it is shifted upward. The adjustment makes a signal stand out only when MACD is large enough relative to the…
This document describes a MetaTrader 4 chart script for marking Elliott Wave counts through drag-and-drop placement. It tracks a sequence of motive-wave labels and corrective-wave labels automatically, allowing repeated cycles. The script has no input…
This note describes a simple account-balance-based tool for converting a chosen risk percentage, within the stated 1% to 10% range, into a monetary amount. It is intended to help manual traders relate risk sizing to stop-loss amounts and translate a desired…
The document briefly describes an oscillator indicator that displays its output as a colored cloud. Its smoothing algorithm can be changed, and the cloud’s color indicates the direction of the trend. This makes the indicator a configurable way to visualize…
The author describes an unfinished attempt to build a multiple logistic regression library in MQL5 that can handle a variable number of independent data columns. Earlier functions were hard-coded for particular numbers of predictors, which the author…
DayBorders is a chart indicator that marks the boundaries of each calendar day, drawing vertical and horizontal lines to make the previous day's range easier to inspect across multiple instruments. It is intended to support a trading recommendation…
The document explains a simple finite-difference indicator for price charts. It first notes that estimating a derivative from the current bar and a future bar requires an unknown future price. Instead, it compares a prior bar with the current bar, producing…
This document describes a software library for obtaining local times across major Forex market locations, converting between local, UTC, and broker server times, and checking whether configured trading sessions are open. It explains UTC offset conventions…
This document describes an Expert Advisor that trades signals from an EMA crossover semaphore indicator. It acts when a bar closes and a new colored marker appears, making the indicator’s signal event the core entry trigger. The EA depends on a separately…
This document describes an Expert Advisor that extends a standard moving-average example by using separate moving-average settings for four actions: opening and closing buy positions, and opening and closing sell positions. Each signal can have its own…
The document describes a multi-timeframe RSI indicator that displays readings from several chart intervals in one indicator window. It presents the readings as a way to spot potentially overbought or oversold conditions and to check short-term trades against…
This listing describes an automated trading program that enters trades when it detects a pinbar pattern and offers trailing stops and take-profit settings. It says the system can be used on major forex pairs and NASDAQ stocks, across time frames, either for…
This indicator modifies the Commodity Channel Index by changing both parts of its calculation. Instead of using a simple moving average for the central reference, it uses a Jurik Moving Average. It also replaces the usual mean deviation with an exponentially…
The indicator transforms moving average values for each candle component into a displayed candle series. It calculates smoothed open, high, low, and close values, giving a compact view of how the moving average evolves across the bar rather than drawing only…
This strategy uses two Bollinger Band envelopes, both calculated from a 20-period simple moving average: one at two standard deviations and one at three. A long signal occurs when the ask crosses above the upper three-deviation band and price is within the…
This short indicator description explains Bollinger Bands %B as a measure of where price sits relative to the upper band, middle line, and lower band. Values above one indicate price is beyond the upper band, while one marks the upper band itself. Values…
