Baluda Indicators

[davek]

Hi Paul:
I don't understand when you say: CSS's for higher timeframes are displayed in the right bar.
What are you referring to, sorry, just missing the meaning. Thanks for all your coding work you do here at Steve's forum building indi's for Bob's 10.xx.
kind regards,
davek

Hi davek - It's all to do with scaling and it isn't that easy to explain but I will try (best thing to do is set up the old and new indicators fixed to D1 CSS on 2 EU charts and change timeframes and you will see).

If you had the old CSS set for D1 but had it on an H4 chart the immediate right hand side (leading edge) of the indicator would show you exactly the D1 CSS information at that time. HOWEVER if, for example, you plotted a vertical line 3 bars back on your H4 chart and looked down to the indicator it would not show you the D1 CSS information for 12 hours ago (3 * H4) but the situation for 3 days ago (i.e. 3 bars on the timeframe the CSS was configured for).

With the new one the vertical line would show the D1 CSS for 12 hours ago - not 3 days ago. This means you can visually back test things that were not easily possible before.

I hope that makes sense.

Cheers,
Dave.

Thanks Dave:
That makes perfect sense, now I know what Paul was referring to. On Bob's 10.6 template he has the css v1.0.7 on the daily, I am going to play around with putting Pauls css v1.0.9 on the 4h chart to show the daily css and see how that lines up with the 4h stoc signals to buy or sell. Again, thanks for taking the time to answer my question.

Im having a problem with v1.0.9 on tradersway Empty4.
I cant get it to display anything when i set it to weightonlysymbolonchart=true. If i set it to false it shows them like its suppose to.

I tried a new blank chart with no other indicators and had the same effect, tried changing the chart on foreground setting, still nothing.

I tried changing timeframes to see if it would refresh, but that didnt work either.

Tradersway uses and "i" after the pair, so i tested it with g/j and added a lowercase i at the end and it still didnt display anything. Not really sure what else i can try.

Any ideas what i can do to get this working? Would love to have the daily CSS on the 4hr chart.

Thanks for the help.

Hi Baluda,

First, thank you so much for your great work. The indicators are really useful.
I'm not a coder so, please consider the possibility to add the next option to MPBM: when the basket is closed by MPBM, the pending orders with the same magic number are closed too. The option is present in MPTM, but it can be used in conjunction only with some options of TP. I think it can be useful for many users of MPBM.

All the best!

Hi guys, new member here;
could somebody please tell me how to use slope strenght indicator for timeframes like M15

Paul

On the MTF version of Global Market trend can you add an option to specify threshold levels being crossed e.g 2.5 with an alert / email/text notification? This would be very much appreciated if its possible

Currency Slope Strength Shows the Slope Strengths for all currencies

The U.S. dollar as the zero axis,This indicator is similar.
Currency pair to wear to buy, sell currency beneath

I have a couple of questions regarding CSS:

1) is the indicator bounded (ie it has a max high and low). From experience it looks like it has a max of 1 and a min of -1.
2) for very high values is there any correlation to ROC (rate of change), or do high values just indicate long periods of increasing/decreasing trend?
3) i am toying with applying a linear regression to the last couple of points to allow me to computationally determine the direction of the slope (increasing, flat or decreasing). Just looking at t[0] and t[1] can result in too many percieved changes in direction. Do you think a linear regression could be useful to determining direction?

Hi Baluda,
Have you noticed any problems with build 600 and your indicators?

The CurrencySlopeStrength (v1.0.9) is giving me problems if I recompile it on 600.
When I first add the indi everything is fine. But if I switch timeframes and then switch back, the CSS looks the same, but all the values are lower... and they keep lowering everytime I switch tf forwards and backwards

I've attached 3 screenshots which I hope explain better.
audcadh4_a.png is the original load of indi - not the Y-axis max is 0.993
I then switch to D1 & back to H4, and get;
audcadh4_b.png - now the Y-axis max is 0.49
then again and;
audcadh4_c.png - now the Y-axis max is 0.33

Have you noticed this problem? and any idea what I can do to fix?

I have a pre-600 .ex4 of the CSS - and that is all fine.
(but I need to recompile, as i want to add something to the indi)

600! who needs it?

any help - much appreciated - they are excellent indis - thank you

I noticed that too. If you recompile then all values revert to the correct ones, but change timeframe again and.....

[padnoter]

just found this that works for me....
add the ArrayInitialize just before the code (below) in the initSymbols() func.

-every time I switch timeframes in 600, the currency occurrences goes up & up (which is used to divide)...so the css is the same shape but lowery-axis

Code: Select all

   ArrayInitialize(currencyOccurrences, 0.0);
   for ( i = 0; i < symbolCount; i++ )
   {
      // Increase currency occurrence
      int currencyIndex = getCurrencyIndex(StringSubstr(symbolNames[i], 0, 3));
      currencyOccurrences[currencyIndex]++;
      currencyIndex = getCurrencyIndex(StringSubstr(symbolNames[i], 3, 3));
      currencyOccurrences[currencyIndex]++;
   }   
   

or wait for Baluda to have a look...

[edit - hmmm maybe this doesn't work, or maybe there are other 600 issues.. i'm getting changing css values still as i flip tf ]

[[ edit2: I've switched back to all my pre-600 .ex4s .Any post-600 compiles I do seem to eat more CPU and give diff css values]]
