Building a Multi-Timeframe Indicator Signal Dashboard in MQL5
Summary
The article describes an MQL5 chart dashboard that scans multiple timeframes and displays buy, sell, or neutral readings in a grid. It combines RSI, Stochastic, CCI, ADX, and Awesome Oscillator values, with a configurable threshold-based score: matching conditions add strength, and the total determines whether the display shows a stronger signal, a regular signal, or neutral. The interface includes a close control and is intended to help users compare conditions across timeframes without changing charts.
The text discusses the dashboard’s layout, indicator data and updates, and reports a compiled visualization and a backtesting visualization. It does not provide quantified performance results, a detailed backtest design, or evidence that the signals are profitable. The scoring thresholds and chosen indicators are presented as adaptable design choices. The dashboard is an analysis aid; the article does not establish rules for trade entry, exits, or risk management.
Key ideas
- The dashboard presents indicator readings across a configurable set of timeframes in one chart panel.
- It scores buy and sell conditions using RSI, Stochastic, CCI, ADX, and Awesome Oscillator thresholds.
- A minimum number of matching conditions determines whether a signal is neutral, regular, or strong.
- The article demonstrates implementation and a visual backtest output but provides no quantified strategy performance.
