TD Sequential Indicator Settings, Counts, and Alerts

Article MQL5 code base

Summary

This document describes configuration options for a MetaTrader 4 TD Sequential indicator. It explains that the calculation can be limited to a specified number of bars or run across all available bars, with a larger calculation range taking longer. Display settings control the colors and appearance of setup counts, perfection arrows, and countdown values, as well as chart labels and object names.

The alert options can notify users when a buy or sell setup reaches count nine, when a setup is perfected, when countdown count thirteen appears, or when a candle closes beyond support or resistance. Popup, email, and push notifications can be enabled separately; email and mobile alerts require setup in MetaTrader. The document provides implementation and usage settings rather than explaining the TD Sequential method, its signal rules, or how to trade its outputs. It gives no performance data, examples, or evidence that the indicator’s signals are profitable, so traders would need independent validation before relying on them.

Key ideas

  • The indicator can calculate over a chosen number of bars or all available bars.
  • Display options control count colors, font, arrow size, spacing, and chart object labels.
  • Alerts can be configured for setup completion, setup perfection, countdown thirteen, and support or resistance breaks.
  • Email and push notifications require additional MetaTrader configuration.
  • The document describes software settings but provides no evidence about trading performance.
