Hurst Bands plot percentage-based levels around a central moving average of median price. The center uses a simple moving average over half the selected period, and three configurable deviation values define inner, outer, and extreme bands above and below…
The document briefly describes an expert advisor that opens trades when Williams %R rises while the positive and negative directional indicators associated with ADX cross downward. It says sell-side rules are the inverse of buy-side rules, though it does not…
TRiX is a momentum indicator that measures the percentage change in a moving average smoothed exponentially three times. The document says this repeated smoothing is intended to filter out relatively insignificant price fluctuations. It also describes TRiX…
This document describes an Ergodic CCI Trigger indicator built from price momentum and repeated moving-average smoothing. It first calculates the close-to-close change and its absolute value, then smooths both through adjustable stages. Their resulting…
This document describes an MT5 chart indicator that displays server time and the current bid price as labels in the main chart or a chosen subwindow. Its clock uses a timer event to update once per second, so the display can continue advancing when the…

This Expert Advisor uses four Accelerator Oscillator readings, sampled at the selected bar shift and three successive seven-bar intervals, as inputs to a weighted perceptron. It multiplies each reading by a weight derived from an optimized parameter, sums…
This automated trading system uses pin-bar reversal signals with a filter built from two moving averages and fractal-based trend lines. Its stated rules pair upward-turning trend lines with a pin-bar sell signal and downward-turning lines with a pin-bar buy…
This short indicator note describes an oscillator built from the difference between closing price and Parabolic SAR. It defines the SAR calculation using configurable step and maximum parameters, then smooths the close-minus-SAR series with a simple moving…
This document describes an Expert Advisor that generates a trading signal when the i4_DRF_v3 indicator histogram changes color as a bar closes. It is an indicator-driven rule: the EA reads the color transition at the completed bar and forms a signal, with…
