Using SilverTrend NRTR on a Chosen Higher Timeframe with Alerts

Article MQL5 code base
Read the original

Summary

The document describes a MetaTrader 5 indicator wrapper for SilverTrend NRTR that lets the user choose the indicator’s calculation timeframe through an input parameter. Its example sets that timeframe to four hours. The indicator can alert the user and send email or push notifications when its color changes, providing a way to monitor a signal from a timeframe that may differ from the chart being viewed.

Operation depends on the underlying SilverTrend NRTR indicator being installed in the terminal’s indicators folder. The page refers to figures illustrating the indicator and alerts, but supplies no signal formula, trading rules, test results, or evidence about profitability. It also does not explain whether the color change is stable after a bar closes or how alerts behave across chart and indicator timeframes. Readers therefore learn about configuration and notification behavior, not a complete strategy or validated trading edge.

Key ideas

  • The indicator allows users to select its calculation timeframe through an input setting.
  • It can issue alerts and email or push notifications when its color changes.
  • It requires the underlying SilverTrend NRTR indicator to be installed in MetaTrader 5.
  • The document gives no trading rules, formula details, or performance evidence.
