Using the iMirror Indicator to Display Inverted Price Charts

Article MQL5 code base
Read the original

Summary

The iMirror indicator displays price movement as an upside-down mirror image of the chart. Its documented interaction is visual: moving the cursor over the indicator changes its color to match the chart and dims the chart behind it, while clicking keeps the indicator in front until another click. The description also identifies separate color settings for bullish candles, bearish candles, and the background.

This is a chart-display aid rather than a signal-generating method or trading strategy. The document explains its appearance and basic interaction but gives no interpretation framework, trading rules, performance evidence, or guidance on how inverted prices might inform analysis. Its usefulness is therefore limited to users who want to inspect price patterns in a mirrored orientation; the effect of that view on analytical decisions is not evaluated.

Key ideas

  • The indicator renders prices upside down relative to the normal chart view.
  • Hovering changes the indicator color and dims the chart behind it.
  • Clicking toggles the indicator into the foreground until clicked again.
  • Bullish candle, bearish candle, and background colors can be configured.
  • The document describes chart presentation and does not establish a trading signal or strategy.
