No. Drone indicators can only send LONG, SHORT or FLAT to TDesk, not "Solo", "Multi" or "Super" signals. These are internal calculations. You could run a half-length 20 and a half length 60 indicator parallel and possibly set the TDesk signal computation parameters to achieve what you want.

But first you might define exactly how a LONG or SHORT signal of your indicator shall be computed. For me, it is far from obvious. "Something touching something and then entering something" is difficult to code.

Are there any records of succesfully trading this?

please that indicator will cause blown accounts, it cannot be trusted for live trading so use at your own risk.... :arrrg:

Post subject:  Indicators I have modified for TDesk

time » Wed Oct 03, 2018 8:05 am wrote:Hi @all,

I've been a member of SHF for several years quietly popping in to the forum, this is my first post and I look forward to becoming an active member.

I'm a part time trader still in my apprenticeship trading a small live account which has been blown several times and goes up as regularly as it goes down.

In a previous life I was a mainframe programmer, what I enjoy about Forex Trading is seeking that edge, finding a system with higher probability of winning and tweaking indicators, just for clarity I'm still seeking that edge.

I keep a manual Excel dashboard of the pairs I trade keeping track of strong and weak pairs, if they have reached a trading zone (Support or Resistance) across timeframes and their Peak Hi Lo, as well as comments for the pair.

When Thomas released TDesk I saw this as great opportunity not only to use it for signals but to replace my Excel dashboard.

I have attached the modified indicators I use for my trading system. I take no credit for any of these indicators, my trading system is based on what other people have learnt and applied and have been willing to share with the Forex community, just like the great people here on SHF.

My trading system is based on Weekly Pivot Point Trading from Davits thread on ForexFactory and HGI here on SHF.

How the System Works
As price action moves progressively away from the Weekly Pivot it moves towards the next pivot points, as these points are reached they act as Trading Zones (support and resistance) where price is more likely to change and move back towards the weekly pivot.

Once in the Trading Zone I use fundamental and technical analysis to provide a trade entry point with a higher probability of winning.

Fundamental analysis and news events help under understand why the price has moved to the Trading Zone and what it may do once it is there

Technical analysis through indicators help identify higher probability trade entry points
- Trading Zone indicators identify a S/R lines where price action has a high probability of a swing
- Trade Trigger indicators provide confirmation of swing and trade set-up opportunities
- Trend indicators help us understand if the price action is moving in the same direction or likely to swing

I use a combination of indicators to identify Trading Zones, Trade Triggers and Price Action moves, here are the indicators I have modified for TDesk and my trading dashboard.

TDesk Trading Button Bias
This is the one indicator I have written which I use on TDesk to show my trading bias for the pair. This indicator appears as button on the top right corner of a chart and toggles through the TDesk signal options LONG, SHORT, FLAT and no signal.

I use the indicator to identify which direction I want to trade a pair, I mainly use it to identify what I believe will be the strong and weak pairs for the week or day ahead.

It also acts a failsafe signal ensuring a 100% signal before I Trade.

Currency meter CCYPAIR TD (Strong Weak Pair)
I have modified this indicator to show the currency pair strength for the pair on the top left of the chart. I use this to only trade a currency if it is strong or weak and the same direction as my trading bias.

Signals
Strong - signal=LONG (Should only BUY)
Weak - signal=SHORT (Should only SELL)


Pivot_Voty TD (Trading Zone)
I use this indicator for weekly pivots as price reaches a Pivot Point a TDesk signal is sent:

Signals
Below WP towards Support Pivot Points - Signal=LONG (should only BUY)
Above WP towards Resistance Pivot Points - Signal=SHORT (should only SELL)
Between the WP and S38/R38 a signal for P-00 will be LONG or SHORT.


TDesk High Low Channel (Trading Zone)
When price reaches the High or Low channel there is a higher probability it will change direction.

Signals
Low Channel Reached - Signal=LONG (Should only BUY)
High Channel Reached - Signal=SHORT (Should only SELL)

The signal stays active until price has reached the opposite signal.

This signal is based on the indicator Renko Super-Signals_v3 double, which you will need to show the high and low channels.

My coding skills are still developing and when I added TDesk to this indicator the channels stopped drawing on the chart. Maybe someone here will be able to fix this.


SS_SupportResistance_V07 TD (Trading Zone)
I have modified Andrew's indicator to send a signal to TDesk when a S/R zone is reached.

Signals
Support Zone reached - Signal=LONG (Should only BUY)
Resistance Zone reached- Signal=SHORT (Should only SELL)
No zone delete the signal


TMS_Angleator V3 - RT TD (Trade Trigger)
In combination with TDI-RT-Clone TD it shows the price action across all timeframes, if RSI has crossed the trade signal and the degree of separation. When price has reached a Trading Zone we can monitor price action across all TF's.

Signals
For all TF's M5, M30, H1, H4, D1
Green Arrow Up - signal=LONG (Should only BUY)
Green Arrow at 2pm - signal=LONG (Should only BUY)
Red Arrow Down - signal=SHORT (Should only SELL)
Red Arrow at 4pm - signal=SHORT (Should only SELL)
Yellow Arrow - signal=FLAT

RSI Cross Over (from TDI-RT-Clone TD)
RSI crossed over trade - signal=LONG (Should only BUY)
RSI crossed under trade - signal=SHOT (Should only SELL)

RSI Separation (from TDI-RT-Clone TD) "I think there is a bug in this signal which I'm investigating"
Good Up - signal=LONG (Should only BUY)
Good Down = signal=SHORT (Should only SELL)

TDI-RT-Clone TD (Trade Trigger)
I have added TDesk code but no signals are sent. This indicator is required for TMS_Angleator V3- RT TD and your chart.


MTF HGI Bars Original TD (Trend)
This is a modified version of the original MTF HGI Bars indicator Thomas released in Nov-17. This indicator has the following modifications:
1. Shows HGI signals instead of colours
2. HGI Golden Arrow signal if Blue Wavy and Trend signal on the same candle
3. Only send a Blue Wavy signal
4. Choose which timeframe to send signals for


Please be careful if you use these indicators and any feedback will be welcomed.

I just want to acknowledge the great work that Thomas is doing on TDesk for us all, as well as Steve, Tommaso, Bob and Leon. I follow all your posts with interest and admiration.

Tim
Update 04-1018
I have removed the "MTF HGI Bars Original TD" because of some bugs and the latest version by Thomas should be used.

Update 03-10-18
SS_SupportResistance_v07 TD - Changed variable "zone_show_alerts = true" to trigger TDesk signal
MTF HGI Bars Original TD - OnlySendBlueWavy test was incorrect, now fixed


Edit - Had a request for a screen shot, my intentions was not to discuss the system here just share the indicators.
Thanks Tim for bring our attention to Weekly Pivot Trading. I have been studying combing the weekly pivot method with Leon's TDesk method of entry. When we apply Leon's entry criteria when pa bounces off a weekly pivot, the success rates is very much improved. Lately, I am trading this combined method manually with good results. However, I pick and choose my trades carefully, and will not take a trade if too close to the next pivot or SR zone. I am trying to construct a helper ea to enter long or short when I see price is touching a weekly pivot point, using Leon's entry criteria. If I succceed, I will share it somewhere in the forum, probably in the Coder's Hangout section.

I have attached a picture to show what I mean.

Options to exit trades to include opposite H4 or D1 RSI_X signals or both.

There is a very good indicator TDI S3,that works well in time frame m15.
Not repaint with very good entry by trend and exit of trade, sent arrows green and red on chart.

Can some coder wizard on SHF modify attached indi for work with TDesk please?

Many thanks in advance.

I thought earlier about having a look at this as I had some free time and was bored.

Nothing I could do would make my Windows 10 Abortion do anything with your .rar file. Mind, I only tried a couple of times. My interest in stuff like this is limited to about 10 seconds. You want SHF members to take notice of you? Make it easy for them to do so.

So upload your files in a format the rest of us can read or there will be no interest at all. I probably will not take any notice either, but at least you will have a chance of attracting some attention.

Hmmm.

Shitty implementation, but interesting signals. I might have a deeper look into it.

Hi Nikos,

Thank you for sharing this indicator.
I hope there is no offence. I always doubt indicators which show a picture perfect entry and exit signals, so I did a comparison of past signals of this indicator over a few hours.You said that this indicators does not repaint, but I notice differently. Attached are two snapshots of EURCHF which are 7 hours apart, it did update the past signals according to the prevailing market price (so called repaint).

I am NOT saying that this indicator is not useful but the claim "Not repaint" might not be entirely true. Please correct me if I have missed something.

Thanks again,
kwchau

Hello Nikos
I did not want to post this but I thought maybe its better to do so and give you some friendly advice.
dude, here is "TDesk User Indicators Playground" not "Bullshit Indicators Playground" !
I forward Tested your TDI s3 indicator and it is totally crap.so if you want to post some more indicators make sure that they are not time wasting things.
about your template, although it does not look nice to me, but at least give some explanation so we can find out whats going on and what your trading strategy is.

Cheers,
farhad

I have found this indicator quite useful as a scalping entry , I have been using it to trade in the direction of D1 superslope. I am using 7 pip TP and 12 pip stop.
