Namoroka, best you post setfiles or templates. Those are the language we all understand.

Cheers

do you help me convert AO to mtf AO for Tdesk system?
My English is poor, I use google translation, in my country there are few people trading Forex and programming so no one helps,i'm from VietNam
thank you so much

Attached is a TD version. It appears to be working.

Mind, it is distinctly over-named. All it does is subtract the slow moving average from the fast then print a green histo if this is greater than the close of the previous candle, or red if not. Awesome it aint. The inputs were originally #define variables so I changed them to user-defined. The TimeFrame input allows mtf.

The conversion appears to be working but I would appreciate one of you indi experts casting an eye over what I have done and upload a corrected version if you spot a bloop. Usual thingy - search for: // TDesk code

Very exciting times! As a predominately manual, trend-based trader, my strategies revolve around defining the trend and then taking bites out of this direction with a suitable signal. Often the trend is defined at a higher timeframe and then the signals are created on a lower timeframe. The problem with this is that you have to use MTF indicators if you want to see everything on one chart and there are "wet paint" issues with doing this.

My preference has been to find a trend indicator that can show a trend on your signal timeframe (in my case H1) without too much noise - not flipping from one direction to another. I've taken one of my favourites and made it TDesk compatible so I thought I'd share it here.

The base indicator is a smoothed Heiken Ashi but it is shown as a single line rather than bars - essentially the line just follows the mid point between what would have been the high and low of the HAS bars. ((H+L)/2). The default settings have served me well but I've left them free to be fiddled with.

BUT!!! This is not a MTF indicator and therefore you can not set the timeframe on which it is based. If you're TDesk is set to load up H4 charts then you'll get this trend from an H4 perspective. If you change timeframes on your charts then the signals back to TDesk will change. If you're happy to stick with one timeframe then this will work for you.

Enjoy,

Bruster.

I tried to make the Heiken Ashi indicator TDesk compatible this afternoon. So far, I have not been able to make it work. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Tried using UBD as well, not working either.

Thanks in advance.

I think this indicator is already made TD compatible. See this example MTF version:

Thanks, taipan. I am using the HA candles colour, blue for long and red for short. Not looking for HAS trend. For example, when H4 and H1 HGI are both up and HA candle blue, then only long trade taken and vice versa.

Finally, got it working, thanks to Thomas for the snippet on "current time frame".
