Re: ADAPTING NB10.2A FOR LOWER TF & RM TRADING - 10.2A CTS

it was a script, which I modified. It's the second option in the EA for ATeam/Semafors. The option is called CountZZ. It's code taken from the 3 Level ZZ Semafors indicator and modified mainly to get rid of Bars (an indicator variable not in EAs), replacing Bars with small dimension arrays (like since we need 12 bars, I could probably get away with making arrays in CountZZ function to be 13. But since I'm not sure, I used 30. still MUCH less than the 600 bars for the arrays zznbrm used), and putting it in a function, for EAs. It's a go-to for me when I think about how to put indicator code into an EA.

In fact, because this is also basically zigzag code, CountZZ can be seen as putting ZigZag indicator code into EA so iCustom is not necessary. To test how using iCustom lags when getting called so many times vs having the code directly in the EA, and making the array much shorter for faster calculation. I save the script as a go-to like I said. Because it makes such a difference and showing the same results as using Mop method on these lower timeframes now I see. Trying to call ATeam via iCustom is a MAJOR slowdown and I do not recommend it under any circumstances if you actually want Empty4 to respond to anything in a timely manner.

This update should be MUCH faster.

Note: In pic, you see Conservative printed below Trade Entry column. The columns for emerging pivots and emerging bias only show up if using Aggressive (TradeMode 3), not Conservative (TradeMode 1) or Moderate (TradeMode 2). So we have 3 different entry criteria that each need to be made sure they are right.

Kindest regards,

Don

Don, I loaded your latest indy version with defaults on the AUDCHF chart on D1, H4 and then H1. There are no other indys running on this chart. The menu screen freezes for some seconds when I press OK, and then disappears. No other display... Apart from your Indy, I am successfully running Baluda's Currency Slope Strength and Slope Values indys on EURCHF and USDCHF charts. MY FXCM Empty4 is Build 438 (Sep 21, 2012.) Regards, Athar.

It looks like right now ATeam uses Zigzag2 period of 12, has H1 Semafors blacked out, and uses only H4 and D1 Semafors. Do you want me to use just H4 and D1 Semafors like shows on most recent template, disregarding H1 Semafors since they're turned black so not seen? Kindest regards, Don Hi Don, I had fewer repainting inssues with the ATeam indy than the Sema4x so actually I use the ATeam indy. However, the box, sound and email alert capability of the Sema4x is useful but not present in the ATeam so I retained the Sema4x in the background. Its kind of a mix of the best of both. If the ATeam indy had the box, sound and email capabilities, I probably will not use the Sema4x at all anymore. Also, the ATeam alerts only show the immediate higher TF in pink. so if on H1 TF the pink alert will be for the H4 TF while the white will be for the default TF in this case H1; if on H4 TF, pink will be for a D1 high/low; if on D1, it will be for a W1 high/low. It does not show more than two levels - which is good enough though it will be nice if it did. Cheers, CC

CC, Remember when I said that the 96 period SEMA4X on H1 was close to the Semafor 2 on H4? Well, it turns out that the White is actually close to Semafor 2 on H4 (12 period vs 13 period), and the Pink is the D1 zigzag/Semafor 2. So there isn't a Semafor on H1 used (except as you said for alert). I will work on getting the alert put on for higher timeframe zigzag (12,5,3, just like ATeam) on D1 and H4. Kindest regards, Don

Don, I may have missed it - did you (could you) post the zznbrm indicator for 3LZZ you refered to several times, like to have a look at it... Cheers Mop

fire580 and others, If this happens where your Empty4 is locking up/won't start, simply shut down Empty4, go into the indicator's folder, create a folder named "hide", put what you think is the problem indicator .mq4 and .ex4 into the new folder. Now restart Empty4. When Empty4 tries to load the indicator, it won't find it, so Empty4 should go ahead and start up. Then the offending indicator can be opened in MetaEditor and problem looked for to fix if you're a programmer/coder/developer, or report bug to developer and go back to last working version until next update if you're a tester/end user. Kindest regards.

Kindest regards, Don Hi Don, I'm a poor coder so I need your help on this one - how then are the highs/lows on H1 which do not appear on H4 generated if you say the ATeam's semaphore works on H4 and not H1 (see H1 & H4 examples below)?

Hi Don, Nice indicator you have coded. I found a bug as there are duplicate rows for a few currency pairs. I'm running your latest 102912b version. allpairs_cts_don_102912b.gif
