This document describes an adviser that uses the DeMarker indicator to generate signals and place pending limit or stop orders. It checks for a signal only when a new bar begins, then sets the pending order at a configured distance from the current price. A…
This note describes a double-smoothed adaptive moving average intended to address frequent slope changes in an adaptive moving average. It places the method in the context of Kaufman's adaptive moving average and a modification that also accounts for where…
This MetaTrader expert advisor detects bullish and bearish inside-bar patterns and opens corresponding long or short positions. It offers three position-handling modes: open a position at every signal with stop-loss or take-profit exits; reopen positions in…
The document introduces the DecisionPoint Price Momentum Oscillator, originally developed by Carl Swenlin, and describes a comparison approach attributed to Vitali Apirine. The method applies the oscillator to compare the relative momentum of two securities.…
FanMA2 represents a fan of moving averages as an oscillator in a separate chart window. Its values stay within a range of plus one to minus one, and the display includes a smoothed average line. The description outlines the indicator’s configurable…
This indicator overlays candles from a larger timeframe as filled rectangles. It colors each candle according to the HullTrend indicator’s direction: the body uses emerald green or pink, while the shadows use light green or cream. The description explains…
The document describes a forex expert advisor that uses ZigZag swing highs and lows to identify support and resistance, then updates trend lines as price structure changes. When price approaches or touches a line, the EA may take a buy or sell position…
The document describes an indicator that evaluates the slopes of five moving averages with different lookback periods and adds the slope readings to represent an overall trend. The moving-average types it lists are simple, exponential, smoothed, and linear…
The document describes a trading calculator that uses user-provided parameters to estimate risk of ruin and an optimal risk level per trade. It also projects account capital over several horizons, including a year, a month, and the end of the selected term.…

This document describes a colored moving average indicator with configurable calculation settings. It names simple, exponential, smoothed, and linear weighted methods; the list repeats the smoothed method, so the intended fifth method is unclear. Users can…
This document describes an Expert Advisor that uses the PFE oscillator to generate trades. It forms a signal when a bar closes and the indicator changes direction. The system therefore relies on a direction turn in the oscillator rather than a threshold or…
This brief description presents an indicator that uses Average True Range as a reference for placing stop losses. It draws two bands at equal distances from a moving average, making the bands a volatility-based guide around a baseline. The text also proposes…
The document describes an on-chart spread monitor for tracking trading costs on a selected symbol. It calculates spread from the live Ask and Bid, then displays the current value alongside the minimum, average, and maximum observed since the indicator was…
The document describes two strategies using an adaptive baseline and volatility bands. For momentum breakouts, it calls for a candle close beyond an outer band and a baseline color indicating the same direction; the trade is held until the baseline changes…

This MetaTrader 5 indicator combines pivot-based swing analysis with Fibonacci retracements. It labels swing points as higher highs, higher lows, lower highs, or lower lows, and classifies breaks as continuation events (BOS) or possible reversals (CHoCH).…
This indicator divides a bar’s reported volume into upward and downward components using the bar’s open, high, low, and close. It defines the upward coefficient as the distance from the open to the high, and the downward coefficient as the distance from the…
The document describes a trading approach that combines an adaptive moving average (AMA) with Kaufman’s adaptive moving average (KAMA). It says the AMA builds on KAMA by accounting for where the close falls within the high–low range. The proposed system uses…
Standard Error Bands form a channel around a smoothed linear-regression estimate of price. The center is a linear regression calculated over a chosen period and then smoothed with a simple moving average. Upper and lower bands are placed at a configurable…
