10.4 A Complete System

[padnoter]

Attached is another 10.4 dashboard.
I created it to show potential 10.4 rsi setups. I wanted to use bob's 1.01 template and stick with the RSI indicator rather than the stoch.
It's not all my own code, I've used bits from Deltabron's CurrencySlopeStrength.mq4/TMASlopeMTF.mq4 & Don Isbell's AllPairs_10.3_Don_..mq4 - so credit to them as well.

The dashboard shows for each pair (you can select all symbols, or a discrete list of symbols, and exclude certain symbol (part)strings - in the parameters);
the pair name
the rsi2 value
the ma240 trend (red means price is below=DT, green=price is above=UT)
# of pips to ma240

The pair name & rsi2 value will turn red/green to show when a good RSI2/Trend setup is ready.
i.e. so in an UT (price above ma240 green), the pair name will turn green when the RSI2 is flat around 0 (<=10)
& in a DT (price below ma240 red), the pair name will turn red when the RSI2 is flat around 100 (>=90)

The rsiUT/rsiDT parameters can be set to determine what value the RSI2 has to be to cause the colour change (default is 10 & 90

I've included a template to use
& a modified version of TMASlopeMTF.mq4 - which is called via iCustom for the RSI - TMA calc i.e. it is needed for the dashboard to work - so put both .mq4 in your ../indicators dir.
- no performance issues on my laptop...

Hope it helps somebody. The .mq4 is also attached, so if anyone wants to enhance/change - feel free.

Great job on this! The only thing I would ask is if you can add more padding between each line. On my screen it is all bunched up. I did the best I could, but am not sure how to do this in the code. I attached PICS to show what it looks like, then what I did by changing the font to kaliki, font size to 7 and the corner to 0. (I also changed X and Y to 15).

Hi,
the template as is - will be of my last pairs/values when I saved the template - so you will always have to change TF & back again to refresh in some way... (or manually edit the .tpl to remove my old values - not sure if there is an easier way to save templates without any values?).

and to increase the amount of room between each line, try increasing the yi variable in the following code snippet (or param it);

Code: Select all

int start()
{
   int    counted_bars=IndicatorCounted();
   int yi=12,yc=10;

Hi allisonmagic,
I'm sure that could be done easily enough by someone... I will when I have time... but prob' someone else could quicker?? it's one reason i shared the code - so people could enhance/amend etc..

either way, it's a very nice dashboard thank you !

good - i'm glad some of you have downloaded/liked it... & that I could give something back to the "Bob system" & to Steve's forum.

This is a modified version of deltabron's cool EmergingPivots.mq4 that shows all the emerging weekly pivots that Bob's 10.4 system uses..

I use it just to give me an idea of where the stop orders may be placed when the market opens...

(if onlyShowOnSatSun = true then the emerging pivot lines only show on sat/sun localtime & so don't get in the way when the real pivots are available - give or take a few hours depending on tz etc... - it saves having to remove/add the indi all the time)

[on a side note, Steve - do you think this is ok to modify someone else's code & upload? if not, I'll remove it...]

Thanks! That worked. I also played with the Column2 size so I could use wrap and fit this on to my info page.

Here is the dashboard with externs and a little math to make columns easy to resize.

No more hard-coded values. Just change x_padding, y_padding.

Sorry, didn't play with title or wrap. Just wanted legibility.

EDIT: Cleaned this up a little more. Fixed wrapping (still a little odd but this ain't a full rewrite). Added option to sort or not. Default fits very nicely on Bob's Info Screen (2 columns).

Heh. This one got me last week. (Then Bob mentioned he was going to trade breakouts of last weeks levels, last highs etc.)

I wouldn't hesitate to post modified code. That is why it was released. It is nice to give credit where it is due. But realistically much of this stuff has been gleaned and cut and pasted 1000 times. It just keeps getting further refined (or polluted depending on who is editing (But I ain't Steve)

Thanks for sharing.

Heh. Just for fun

under RSI2 , if it's at 0, does that mean flat line ?

Yes. More likely I hit the trigger early on the upload or am missing data. Zero can also be an error. It just looked so pretty I got excited

Yep, call to the tweaked indi in icustom() was hardcoded at 4H, so my hack for pick a TF needs a mod. Ahh well can't blame a guy for trying. Unfortunately that means work on the underlying indi. Thanks for spotting it.
