I have nowhere near that time on Thinkscript so far with some very simple adventures in VBA and python beyond that. I have been watching some coding standards videos. That has been informative. I used to always think of coders as people who know ...

Well, in the midst of my lack of precision, you definitely put together the framework that does exactly what I have in ToS. Just some changes to inputs and voila... I did look over the code. I do intend on looking through and working toward ...

I meant "user selectable color" for the paint mention....definite miss on my part. I have no hesitation with saying I am unable to think MQL....I do not understand the mechanics of the language at all. I've looked over standard indicators that I ...

- "paint" price bars showing buy (user selectable) or sell (user selectable) appropriately, simply color gray if the conditions don't exist or leave that out if I'd still be able to just use the chart properties window for that. - be able to adjust ...

The attached image is from a while back when I was first working on this. The orange line clouded with magenta is HL2[1], timeframe 1 hour (Prev 1h bar high + prev 1h bar low)/2. I would like to be able to set the indicator to a time frame of ...

Fib_ext_up2[1] and Fib_ext_down2[1] are upper and lower 1.618 extensions of the previous bar. Because of assigning time frame values to variables leading up to these, they are by default using the 1hr time frame. (Unfortunately at the moment ToS is ...

image The history here is that I had previously written my own fib grid based on the previous days range. Since I couldn't start the variable name with a number, I assigned "Fib_ext_up1" to the UPPER 1.382 extension and "Fib_ext_up2" to the UPPER ...

There is no array in this because of the conditions that must be met. (No need for that in ToS anyway) If you look up to the 8th and 9th line of the code you will see the "fib_ext_down2" is simply a lower 1.618 extension on a "def" line. Similar ...

That is pretty cool. I like that "on click" function. Is the math I provided possible?

I don't disagree with you there at all. The tag is simply meant to prompt some thought with the hope that thought leads toward understanding that the look within is where the most success in trading is. Thanks for your time, challenge and look at ...

I appreciate your friendly challenge on my "signature line". You'd be the first person to EVER bring anything up about it. Here's my opinion and why I believe it to be true: So many traders chase what everyone else finds to work for them and ...

Is anyone here willing to look over a ThinkScript (think or swim) code and lend a hand with converting it to an indicator in MT4? It has been years since I did anything with MT4 and at that time I had not delved into any level of coding. Messages or ...

What's your basis for what you're indicating you believe NOT being BS?

Something that has gone on this long eventually needs to slow down and stop happening but I guess it's not going to happen because of me. There's a trading lesson in that.

1. How many futures contracts have you traded? 2. Which broker did you trade them through? 3. What are their fees for your trading?

Hmm...figuring this message may never get read, but, yes, I've been doing that for a year or so now. Very handy. First step is to create a watchlist. Then use custom fields in that watchlist to track the parameters you'd like to track. From there ...

How about "if price is below 20 make the average red, if above make it green"?
