thread: Recent Strength indicator

quote I changed my mind, and decided to overhaul the code with this indior (named because it was initially composed for giraia_br). Attached is the latest update. This version compiles without any errors on MT4 build 509, and also the ex4 seems to operate 100% on both Pepperstone build 745 and AxiTrader build 610. I suggest installing the .ex4 file just. If you attempt to compile the .mq4 on build 600 or after, you will probably get errors (more info in this thread). I've included the .mq4...

Its any opportunity to get not numerical but traces strenght indior??? Because this isnt simple to use. . Thank you

There are links to a lot of strength indiors in place #1. Hope you find one that suits you.

Thnx Bro

I still battling with that MTFuckers Yesterday All setup extactly like from book from Sonic R quantity ideal move start within my direction ( already 14 pips was profit) I starting appearing happy and following some Mom Fuck... News and trade turn in reduction.
I thinking now if isnt better to exchange Red news and forget on all this egies systems and all this shit. im really confused now.

Hi Hannover,
I enjoyed very much your latest Strength indior.
Could you please remove the normalization into 0-100?

I'll appreciate if you can send me the source code of the indior.
Thanks in advance
Fabio

NOTE (Jan 31, 2014): Any indiors or EAs that I've contributed to this thread will probably no longer work at the most recent MT4 build that is (if I understand correctly) because of being rolled out Feb 3. If you want to ensure that these indiors/EAs continue to operate correctly, do NOT upgrade your MT4 past the current construct (509). I don't know how to re-code them to make them run correctly in the new appearance MT4, and I have no desire to re-edue myself to learn the new programming language which MetaQuotes is forcing upon everybody. Personally I think...

Thank you for the Screenshot EA! It works pretty well and need less maintenance also!

Hi Hannover,
Can the ex4 document be used in an expert advisor with iCustom function? Imagine if I want to change a few default parameters of this indior from the function?
thank you

I presume that you're referring to the Recent Strength indy (you will find additional strength indys in the thread).

Re with iCustom:
I have never tried it. I guess it'd be unwieldy, given that the high number of parameters. Instead, RS will output a CSV file of outcomes (that the OutputFile parameter is explained in article #1). Steve Hopwood utilized this strategy in his” EAs (here). Furthermore, I created a code fragment that lots of data in the CSV file into arrays, so values can be readily and directly referenced by the EA, because of its decision-making process. I am able to post this code in case you wish (I want to know), but it was written before build 600, and hence will probably compile with errors using the post construct 600 (MQL5) compiler. Hence it would need to be altered so. Note: this solution requires the RS indy to be running together with the EA, to always provide the file of strength values that is being read and processed from the EA.

Re altering the default parameters -- two chances:
1. Conserve your desired settings in a MT4 template, then load the template;
OR
2. Utilize Parameter files (explained in the ParameterFile setting in post #1, and farther in post #48). This allows you to save several sets of parameters in different text documents (use an editor such as Notepad to keep them), then you type the file extension into the ParameterFile parameter, and all of the parameter settings in the text document are used and loaded, rather than these in MT4's'Inputs' tab conversation.

Thanks for the Screenshot EA! It works and require less maintenance!

Glad you find it useful.

Thank you very much. Wish you all of the good fortune

Thanks for these articles!!! Im with Giraia currency strength. I understand it computes the current candle(most right candle) that this indi is exactly what I want....well almost. I want for it to provide me the preceding candle strengths. I take care of the last Daily candle and nothing else. So I must take a peek at 4:59pm eastern time and take a quick screen shot b4 they change over. I miss it most of the times. LOL. Anyways I'll keep looking. Anyone noticed anything I want feel free to let me know. However, im still looking.

I did just notice this. Wow.

Series RefreshPeriod = T
How frequently you would like to get the values to be recalculated and re-plotted.
T = every new price tick; or define M1, M5, M15, etc to have the indior upgrade on the first tick of each new M1, M5, M15 candle etc..

I am assuming if I change it to D1 that'll compute the previous moment?
Im definitely going to give that a try.
