I also took that trade but bailed out when I saw the yellow wavy. Can't remember where the yellow wavy occurred exactly but the trade ended up about breakeven. That yellow wavy no longer appears on the chart ofcourse. Did the yellow wavy not appear on your chart or are yellow wavys not a part of your (exit) strategy, just wonderin.... There are a gazllion ways to trade but I'm ahaving a crack at trading pure HGI atm.

This red trend arrow was with Hurst by the way.

I have further modified The HGI overlay (HGIMarketinfoDark) to now include Trade type (Buy/Sell) and lotsize.

Enjoy!
Nice idea I fixed your code that the lot size works correct..(NewMarketInfo Ab)
Too attached some varaint showing the HGI H4 actual symbol..(NewMarketInfo B, you have to enter the HGI version name in HGIndicatorName)
NewMarketInfoB.mq4
NewMarketInfoAb.mq4
Cheers :)

Haven't downloaded it yet but wondered if you have made.. or could make the other items all optional to be shown or not shown according to preference?

Many thanks :)

Oh and I forgot to say.. also the corner where it's shown? I prefer the lower left for this sort of data.

If I'm the only one who would like this though then don't worry. ;)
This indicator is coded by me..

G'day dclayw.
I tend to trade daily tf more than 4H,but look for entry on 1&4H tf. Exits are based on Gann percentage expansions. I like to see HGI arrow as a conformation when I enter but it's not necessary. My exits are predetermined or closed at trailing stop. So, HGI is looked at for entry purposes only.
Were you talking about GBPAUD or EURUSD trade?

I was referring to the EURUSD trade.

OK. No, that trade was opened purely as a swing trade based on current trend direction and a bounce of the trend line. I entered last night before I went to bed. Didn't even check the HGI.

I am relatively new to HGI but not to trading. The indicator looks great and very many thanks to its creators. May I ask, is there any reason why this indicator cannot be used for Indices, commodities etc? I have more experience in these markets so prefer them to forex. I have read the whole thread and maybe I missed it but I do not see the answer to my question. Many thanks

Cheers :)
