I can think about it. Someone else finds this interesting?

The little problem is that it seems to be for MT5 only, and I prefer to make equal features for both, MT4 and MT5 😕

That's my point. The buffer of this particular indicator returns something that no one needs.

Don't make it to complicated. You don't need to calculate the 'size' of the bar o something else. Remember your math lessons at school and how to calc the slope of a graph. All you need is really the difference of two bar closes. slope=close*-close*. And you need to be aware of the scale of the x-axis which means you must stay in the same timeframe.

Thanks for hint! 😄
Now i get it.

Wow. Many thanks. Will try it and report...

bye bye

If you are using translator and everything looks bad, I think you can try to understand how blocks work by seeing in their source code. But you have to understand programming a little 🙂

Please don't worry about this. I thought I'd standardise on my usual Linux Centos operating system. I'll just stick with my old boring Windoze! 🙂

Incidentally, I do have MT4 running perfectly, and I satisfied all the requirements for fxdreema install, all under Wine for Linux.

If the day is Friday, hour is after 23:00 and minute is after :30 - close what it's to be closed.

I can't help for zig-zag, because in my opinion this indicator is not to be used inside EA's... or I can'r understand it.

Fractals can be read for the 2'nd oldest candle (Candle ID=2). It sometimes puts and then clears it's arrow, so you can see "false" trades.
Fractals has two buffers - Up and Down. Each of them is 0 when there is no arrow, or above 0 when there is an arrow. If Up or Down is above 0, this situation remains until the end of the current candle, but as I mentioned above - sometimes Fractals changes it's decision and clears the arrow almost immediately.

I've drawn a blank so far on obtaining good quality free tick data for indices and commodities. Although http://eareview.net/ does suggest GainCapital, it also says its of poor quality.

I wonder if anyone on this forum has experience of commercial tick data, which service they used and liked.

Thanks. 🙂

Indicators also changes because of ticks. Everything changes only because of ticks, so there is no need to repeat something when there are no ticks. If you repeat some conditions 10 times between two ticks, the results will be the same, because indicators depends on ticks.
If you want to repeat something say 10 times within a tick, find a block named "Free loop...". There is also one named "Sleep". But I can't find any reason to do this 🙂

Oops, missed that post 😳

I have no idea why is this happens, and again... if I see it here, I will fix it, but I don't know how to replicate it on my PC 😞

Well this works perfect. Indicator does exactly what it should do and FxDreema doen't complain. usefull

There is still the possibility of using it as an introducing agent,
then the lifetime license for free.
But it's not important.
Importantly, fxDreema is much better software, but there is a just few good MT4 brokers. 🙂

Ok. Now I understand. Thanks very much for taking the trouble to assist me - and sorry for the silly question!

Hi there,

sorry for the late reply.
I did test the strategy you created and thats exactly what I meant. So the function works as expected.

And yes you are right, that strategy is not final 😉
Found some good settings while optimizing in backtester, but the strategy needs some more logic to get better...have to think about that

Thanks again for your help, cheers

Use negative value for "Grid size" parameter.

__You can always use some Variable, Formula block or some of the Flags. For example: http://fxdreema.com/shared/p8klKCyJ
Or even: http://fxdreema.com/shared/mVy8HqOqc[/quote:1otnfcxh]

Thank you,
try to think of the above examples ... 🙂

Solved.

Thanks for the very quick reply, fxDreema.

I was using downloaded tick data from Dukascopy, and transforming it into MT4 history files using the excellent Tick Data Suite.

After I'd done some more research on this problem I decided re-install everything, and also give another broker a go. The first broker confusingly called its pairs GBPJPYSB (spread bet), whereas the second used the normal GBPJPY (even for spread bet). The tests seemed to work fine with the first broker (99%, etc) apart from the "Tester: exchange rate cannot be calculated" error at the start.

The key, therefore is the name of the pair. If the name of the history files don't exactly match the pair name the broker gives them (in my case GBPJPYSB instead of GBPJPY), then this error occurs.

Birt (of Birt's eareveiw.net - home of Tick Data Suite) said: "Just for future reference, FXT files created while connected to a broker that uses a suffix for the currency pair names will not work properly on brokers that do not use a suffix and vice-versa. In case you have to perform such a switch, you either have to recreate the FXT using the new broker or you have to hexedit the FXT and remove the suffix (or add it)."

Hopefully this information will assist someone else in the future who stumbles across this problem, and searches for an answer.

Anyway, all's well now.

Thanks again.
