Of course, needless to say it is a fool´s errand to short such a strong uptrend. Better to let it retrace and jump on the Buy wagon again.
:arrrg: That´s what USDJPY thinks of my "wedge"... Simply unstoppable... :!!:

They tend to get confused with the RADs being the same color and size. I change the size here but they revert back to 0 when changing time frames.

For what it´s worth, I changed the buffer 8 wavys to Dodger Blue to make them stand out from the buffer 7 gold ones.
Coupled with that, can the next iteration permit more customization regarding arrows and alerts. It is easy enough for me to just blank out particular arrows by CLR_NONE but I cannot turn off particular alerts. In my case I like the alerts for the Big arrows and the wavy lines but not the RAD or other small arrows.

For now I just created a wrapper around your indicator by using iCustom but it would be nice to be able to do it with the indicator.

Bob,

Thank you for an excellent indicator. I made a nice 50 pip trade sell off AUDCAD in the Asian.

In this situation, you've closed all trades due to the latest wavy line then a blue rad appears with no large arrow. Would you get back in when it appears?
Take a long after price moves above the location of the rad?
Wait for a large arrow?

Just want to get some opinions.

When you get conflicting signals you should look at the higher time frame and see what you get there. If not sure, look for another pair. There is no need to guess. There are many options.

Has anybody seen a Renko chart yet, that is the cleanest renko chart I have ever seen!!! Now I can use the Empty4 alerts to trade renko on tradestation or if somebody can translate Empty4 to easy language we USA residents can DROP Empty4 and become a tradestaion trader, then Steve could add a Tradestation leg to the forum and the USA people could have an opportunity for a MORE reliable Broker. Niiiccee!!

Gary

If I may, (I am sure this will get a lot of comments)...
I am a professional trader. As a professional trader, I personally would not and do not recommend TS as their spreads are too wide, costs too high and there has been issues with clearing trades. There are too many issues going on behind the scenes that you are not aware of with how trades are processed. My experience with them has always been negative. If I thought they were good to use, I would use them, but do not..

FWIW...

Cheers,

BT

My first set up will be Empty4 renko using HGI_14.05. I my retire right then and there. My second act will be to try manual TS using the HGI alerts, they owe me BIG. I'll let you know, the TS will be demo first then live if its any good . I'm hoping with no SL or TP or Auto EA there will be no problems. My renko auto trading at TS has always been VERY spotty due to some of the problems you mentioned. I know a friend who got thrown out of TS because of complaining about their actions, especially on the forums.

I appreciate the input you gave for ATC their spread is great. Their $5000 start up is a bit step AT THIS TIME, also the .05 pip minimum is not great for checking live reactions to a new EA. Can you tell me your experience with tracking the Demo with your live account?

The attached charts:
The 2nd set of charts show the renko 5 pip in the same time frame for TS and MBTrading.
The first set of charts show the HGI-14.05 in action, I put vertical lines to help true them up, I only see one loser, HGI got confused.
.

Thanks for your input

Thanks again HG team

Ray

If you are still using an old version that was a problem. The newer versions should no longer do that.

If you go to the tabs when loading the indi. Go to colors and you can change the size of the arrows by changing the width line from 0 to 1. Then save the template and you have it. You can also change the colors too.
