TDI rsx based - smoothed alerts lines2 nmc.mq4 has already many functions and is from tsd from 2012. Maybe you find similar versions on your harddiscs?
As I use renko charts, a fast (in cpu terms), simple version would be the best.
It's just a rsi with bollinger bands on it, which needs some smoothing and adaptiveness.
I just found on the bad tsd search engine this file, maybe you want to enhance it a little bit with some filtering?

If I deactivate lines on an indicator, does that make it faster or does the indicator just don't show the lines like in the rsx indicator of the second post?

there are two in forex-tsd because one was getting 'full' thats why a second one was created...so unless this one is 'full' there should be only one available

That would be wonderful. I love the adaptive version.  It shows divergence and it is one of the few indicators, which can warn you that the price can consolidate before it happens.Trade it always with the trend as you know an instrument can be overbought/sold a long time on strong trends. But if the price moves with waves, it is very good.
What does this settings do?
tdi_rsx_based_-_adaptive_smoothed__alerts__lines__divergence.mq4
"RsxSignalLinePhase = 0;"
"extern bool   RsxPriceLineDouble        = false;"
I can't see much change?

In the meantime a simple task to ma-like indicator, which does not overreact like hull ma:

I present to you one of my favourite ma. Can you add alerts on slope change and cross over? On backtests the first line seems to repaint two bars sometimes, can you make it completely non-repainting?
Can you make more options changeable like in line 109: MODE_LWMA, PRICE_CLOSE
         ld_104 = 2 * iMA(NULL, 0, period_44, 0, MODE_LWMA, PRICE_CLOSE, li_20);

In which ways is your invention oma (one more average) better?
You see in the picture also some StepMA testing. 3ma are the colored lines in waves.

Nagh. The two "Requests and Ideas" happened on TSD because there was elite and advanced elite section (which were not visible by each other in some cases) and then two threads with same name were created. No need for that here at all

Is it possible to adjust the settings of TDI Alerts v4 to use on several settings for smoothing or filtering? Adaptivness would also be great.
Does it make sense to add the other rsi methods like cuttlers?
Other TDI versions can be downloaded here

Oh well - there will probably be cases like that with time, but we shall try to keep the forum simple and logical. But as usual, the main part is done by users / members of the forum - not the mods
