Fixed Trade Direction Using Visible Arrow
-
Hello Experts.
Need help with this trick.
Thanks.

Those are fractals, must like the system of renko charts....aren't they all constantly being moved and updated or "repainting" ( I know all indicators do to a point by technicality).
Put a trace line after that indicator and watch it on your strategy tester, you will see that the arrows will move a new bars form.

@jsauter86 , it's a custom indi actually.
And yes it does repaint, very few but still acceptable.
The problem is not all of the arrow read by the EA.
So i've decided to test with the indi to auto refresh the chart.
Hopefully the EA can read the arrows on the chart and execute with the rules. -
interesting, can you share the indi so I can play with it?
-
Yeah, sure.

Hi, there please let me know if you find a solution. I have a similar problem here where I cant read all signals (buffer values) provided by my indicator:
https://fxdreema.com/forum/topic/10484/issue-with-reading-indicator-arrows-indicator-visible/3I looked at the backtest of your indicator briefly and only visually and even though it repaints I think it can be very interesting with a trend filter and some good MM, but I didnt look at doing an EA out of it yet. I will follow this thread but the issue is similar I think.

@fm2020 Please share a sceenshot fo your indicator's window in fxDReema and in your MT4. You can easily check if those buffers are correctly ideintified or not.

Thanks, I added screenshot and comments in this thread (https://fxdreema.com/forum/topic/10484/issue-with-reading-indicator-arrows-indicator-visible/2) . But the problem is I believe not the mapping of the buffers, but how to catch repainting candles correctly (I tried the box "On additional candles to be visible" to 4 as thats the delay I believe, but I can't make it work (i.e. still only the arrows appearing on candle ID = 0 trigger trades, the others don't.

@fm2020 I answered there.
