Displaying QQE Indicator Values as Candlesticks with Three Calculation Modes

Article MQL5 code base

Summary

This document introduces an indicator that displays values derived from the QQE algorithm as a sequence of candlesticks. It frames this format as a potentially more informative way to inspect the processed price series, but does not specify which situations benefit or provide examples of interpretation. The configurable mode selects whether the plotted values are based on the QQE main line, its signal line, or the difference between those lines.

The text is a short description of an indicator implementation rather than a trading strategy. It provides no entry or exit rules, parameter guidance, comparison with standard QQE displays, or empirical evidence that the candlestick rendering improves analysis. Use also depends on external compiled indicator and library files being available in the MQL5 terminal folders. Consequently, the document explains the display concept and its three variants, while leaving calculation details and any trading value unassessed.

Key ideas

  • The indicator renders QQE-processed price-series values as candlesticks.
  • Its mode can display the main line, the signal line, or their difference.
  • The candlestick presentation is suggested as a potentially useful analysis view, without supporting evidence.
  • The implementation depends on separate compiled indicator and library files.
