PricerEA is described as a trading utility for placing stop or limit pending orders at user-selected prices. It can calculate the lot size for each order automatically and can apply a trailing stop after a pending order is triggered; trailing stops are…
The document introduces BBMA, a trading approach attributed to Oma Ally that combines Bollinger Bands with moving averages to identify possible entries. It describes the strategy broadly rather than specifying indicator settings, entry triggers, exit rules,…
This description explains a signal indicator that displays current trend information derived from the Differential Average indicator at a fixed timeframe. It represents signals with a colored cloud and places colored points on the lines when a bar in the…
The indicator collects real-time tick arrival times and Bid and Ask prices, displays the two price series in a subwindow, and can save collected observations to a tick file. It also supports keeping several nonstandard chart types active, including…
The Renko Range Detector is described as a chart utility for identifying the fixed open-to-close range of a Renko bar or candle. For a rising brick, its size is calculated as close minus open; for a falling brick, it is open minus close. The indicator is…
This indicator description presents a Commodity Channel Index variant that can smooth its input prices with a selectable average before calculating CCI. Available average types include simple, exponential, smoothed, and linear weighted. The stated aim is to…
The document describes a MetaTrader 5 expert advisor that combines filtered momentum entries with a grid and hedge recovery system. Its entry rules use a Z-score, multi-timeframe trend alignment, a zero-line crossover, and a minimum slope; an overextension…
This brief strategy description combines the Awesome Oscillator on a daily chart with the Stochastic Oscillator on an hourly chart. For a buy setup, it first waits for the higher-timeframe Awesome Oscillator to cross above zero, then looks for the…
This Expert Advisor uses a Bezier indicator’s color change at bar close to generate trade signals. It follows the indicated trend and increases position volume when open profit, measured in points, passes a threshold set in the EA inputs. A position comment…
This note describes a MACD variant that uses an RMA average in its calculation instead of the more familiar EMA. It characterizes the resulting values as comparatively fast and points to a potentially distinctive response after periods of high volatility.…
This brief description outlines an Expert Advisor that processes signals from four Williams Percent Range indicators, using averaging periods of 26, 27, 29, and 30. It says the program displays text objects on the chart and maintains a log file, indicating…
This Expert Advisor example applies two moving averages, MACD, and the Commodity Channel Index to USDJPY on an hourly chart. It reads indicator values from completed bars, including consecutive MACD readings, and uses trade-transaction events to track…
The AFL Winner indicator is described as a tool for identifying possible trend changes around established turnover areas at the negative and positive 50 levels. The document gives this threshold-based description as the indicator’s central trading concept,…
The document describes the U.S. Dollar Index, also known as USDX or DXY, as a measure of the U.S. dollar’s value relative to a basket of foreign currencies. It explains the index’s direction: it rises when the dollar strengthens against the basket. ICE…
This Expert Advisor combines two indicators to identify trend-following entries. ColorX2MA sets the slower trend direction, while ColorJFatl signals a possible entry when the faster trend changes. A trade signal occurs at bar close when the indicator…
This Expert Advisor searches the previous 500 closing bars for price levels where closes cluster, then uses a cross of three moving averages of different lengths as a trend-development signal. After detecting a directional trend, it identifies the nearest…
This indicator plots a colored histogram of the closing price’s percentage distance from a selected ZigZag pivot. It calculates the difference between the close and the pivot price, divides by that pivot price, and scales the result by 100. Positive and…
This short specification explains how a Renko chart is constructed and how a Donchian Channel is aligned to its bricks. The horizontal axis tracks the sequence of Renko bricks rather than elapsed time. Bricks are built from incoming bid ticks using the…
This expert advisor trades changes in the XWAMI indicator's trend cloud. It generates a signal when a bar closes and the cloud changes color, then adjusts position size according to recent outcomes in the same direction. The stated defaults examine the last…
This brief note presents general software design principles that can inform trading-system architecture. It describes design patterns as reusable solutions developed through experience, intended to help make systems easier to extend, maintain, and support.…
This brief note describes a ribbon indicator built from a variation of the Hull moving average. Instead of comparing averages with different calculation periods, it uses the variation indicator’s speed property to create a ribbon that behaves somewhat like a…
This document describes an adaptive Laguerre filter based on a method attributed to John Ehlers. It says the implementation supports Laguerre polynomials of different orders, with order four as the default. Adaptation can be controlled through a smoothing…
This document describes a normalized version of the Acceleration/Deceleration oscillator. It shifts and rescales the standard indicator, with the stated aim of making its configuration more adaptable alongside other oscillators. The description identifies…
The document critiques trend lines built from DeMark pivot points or Bill Williams fractals when key points are identified using only a minimum-bar rule. It proposes removing that minimum and defining a point's dimension as the smallest count of bars on…
