Rene,

I have a suggestion that may be helpful:

The procedure of analysis that I use to select tradable pairs for the day runs something like this:

1- I check the H4 column for Trend arrows or Strong Buffer 8 Wavies.

2- I check each of the charts of these pairs to make sure the change in trend is not very old.

3 Once I select the pairs, usually 3 or 4, I check the M15 column, looking for a Trend arrow or a Strong wavy in the same direction as H4.

The rest of the day is spent on trading in and out of these 3 or 4 pairs according to the signals in M15.

Is there a way to mark these pairs by clicking on the pair name so the background or the name itself changes color?

This would make identifying these few pairs much easier among the many in the Matrix.

Thanks.

Sure, that is not a problem. Do you want to be able to 'un-mark' them by clicking again? And is there a requirement to retain that selection after a Empty4-restart or re-initialisation of the indicator?

Thanks Rene,

The first one is a yes. The second is: It would be nice but not absolutely necessary.

I believe this is going to be a very handy feature.

thank you for this indicator. I just started using the MTF and it and it helps a lot keeping an overview over so many pairs!

One request, would you be able to create an alert switch for a combination of a 'large arrow + wavy lines'?

Kind regards
In fact, that would be a 'large arrow + STRONG wavy line', right? Also, with the large arrow pointing away from the wave? Please clarify?
Yes, a large arrow pointing away from a strong wavy line (for short and long entries).
I now added an image to clarify :)

/edit: changed image to new HGI with blue lines

i think this is a good idea. i have now realised that the best entry is when there is a strong wavy followed shortly by a big arrow. so maybe something like...

if (big arrow && strong wavy &&(slopeshift <= MaxSlopeShift) { trigger! }

then the cell could light up a different color to highlight that and stay lit until a new signal comes.

the strong wavy and big arrow would of course need to be pointing in the same direction - although i don't think it's possible that it could be backwards.

i would try to code this myself but i definitely don't know what im doing on this one.

thanks again for all your work on this renexxxx

I have added a few lines to allow one to select a symbol. These lines have only been added to the MTF-version.

There is a new parameter called: ClrSelect (default: clrNavy) that will be the background color of the selected symbol. If you click again, the color should go away.

Note that this does not survive a Empty4-restart or indi-reinitialisation (I haven't set any global variables), but it does survive subsequent updates to the signals (of course).

Update (to the HGIMatrixMTF.mq4) is in post 1.

Thanks a lot Rene. I appreciate it.

Hi Rene,

Thank you for all your hard work with the matrix.

I have noticed a few differences when using HGI_v15.03.
The number of bars next to the arrows seems not to work correctly. Works perfectly with HGI_v15.01.

The wavy terminology has changed in HGI_v15.03.
Buffer 7 wavy is now a Wavy Range
Buffer 8 wavy is now a Wavy Trend

A suggestion would be a change in the wording used in the matrix from Strong and Weak waves to calling the waves Wavy Range and Wavy Trend, as referred to in HGI, to prevent possible confusion.

the 15.03 had a bug causing problems with iCustom calls, it is updated in the thread

Cheers :)
