This is my first post on this site.
I am testing out a new strategy i am working on and willing to share once proven.
I have an indicator (attached) that is intrinsic to the strategy. However, it is not coded with alerts.
Usually i can do this myself when there is enough existing information in the .mql4 code but unfortunately in this instance there is not enough information.

Would it be possible for someone to add popup, sound and push alerts to this indicator.

Thanks in advance.

Hi, alerts added. You can share your strategy and maybe we will help make it better...

Hey Johnere,

Wow, thank you for that much appreciated.

I will get the concept together and post it here for perusal.

I am also trying to learn how to do things. Would it be possible to get the .mql4 file so i can see your awesome work and how you do it.

Happy to contribute however i can.

Again many thanks.

Hello,
I am working on a new Stnd Dev strategy which uses it, along with a fractal indicator with SR.

I am using a Stnd Dev indicator (from FS) and I need this to have two things added.

1. A 3rd deviation level.
2. Alerts (sound, popup and push) when price reaches any of the deviation levels.

Would it be possible for someone to code the additional dev level and alerts to the attached indicator.

If it turns out that this is a successful strategy i would be happy to share it with the community.

Thanks in advance. DAMPro 69.

Johnere, just an update on the professional swing indicator strategy.
This did not prove to be successful as the swing indicator produced too many signals.

What i think would be worthwhile and could make it better would be for this indicator to be MTF.
This would reduce the amount of signals on the lower or current timeframe.
This is also for the view to be more of a swing indicator as opposed to a scalping indicator as it seems to be now.

i don't know if this is possible, but if it is, i would appreciate you having a look at it for me.

If this can be done, i would also like to incorporate it into the Standard Deviation strategy i am working on (previous post).

Thanks. DAMPr69.

John!!! I didnt know you coded?!? I love it.... I just can't change colors of the levels on this as its hardcoded to SteelBlue haha can you let us change our level colors??

Nice coding and user friendly levels color choice now!!! Im having troubles adjust histogram sizes or figuring it out in coding...... grrrr

Professional Swing indicator with Alerts

Here you go, added the ability to adjust the widths of the histogram.

Thanks to John for posting the open source code version as well. In reply to boytoy's question, having a look at the code I'll describe what it's based on below.

What is the Professional Swing Indicator for MT4?

The Professional Swing indicator is used for analyzing price action based on High and Low values over a specific period.

The main calculation involves averaging the High and Low prices over the last five bars. This average (referred to as Main within the code) is used to determine how far the current high or low is from this average, scaled by a measure of volatility (Minr in the code).

The Minr variable is calculated as a fraction of the average price range over the last five bars. This can be interpreted as a measure of "market volatility". By observing the indicator, it scales the distance of the current High or Low from this average based on this volatility.

Uses

This indicator attempts to identify potential scalping entry and exit points by visualizing momentum and volatility in the market.

The dots above the Histogram indicate potential buy and sell signals based on threshold conditions for the calculated buffers whereas the Histogram (although colored in reverse by default) can be used as an overall picture of the market.

You can use this to scalp on all timeframes.
