Hi.
Simple panels are preferable for reactions and lighting.

I fix that. Check that.
Enjoy.
Hi,
Rename the indicators you modify. You're only publishing the .ex5 file, which cannot be renamed.
Your file replaces the original .ex5.

I am sharing this solution, which I had previously found for myself, at the request of friends.

"XARD: I like the miniDot on the M30 & the BigDot on the M6"

Hi master XARD, may i ask. If the gps timeframe example M30 is mini dot BLUE. But in trigger timeframe example M6 is BIG RED DOT. Would you still trade the second dot for M6 BIG RED DOT or just waiting untill BIG BLUE DOT come ?? :think:

Hi Xard,

I see that the Panel 1 (version XU v016) shows a different value for ADR% than previous versions of the indicator.

In file XU PANELS NEW , at line 348 the code is:

double adrAvgRaw = (adr5 + adr10 + adr20) / 3;

Previous calculations included yesterday's ADR with the calculation being something as:

double averageADR= ((yrange + fiveDRange + tenDRange + twentyDRange) / 4);

Is the change in calculation deliberate?
XARD: Thanks for pointing it out -- it should be double averageADR= ((yrange + fiveDRange + tenDRange + twentyDRange) / 4);

Hi Xard, first of all, thank you for this amazing system, but I have a request, can you add the option to change the color of the heikin-ashe candles for the downtrend (from the Xu Hxma Candles v.102) ? we can change the colors of normal candles (uptrend, downtrend, neutral), but we can only change two colors for the heikin ashi candles (uptrend and neutral), if we make any changes in the color tab, it will revert to medium purple when changing the timeframe or pair. I feel a little embarrassed to make a request for such a small detail, but I like using a color scheme so much that I had to do it.

Made a customised version of Panel1 - corrected ADR% calculation. Also:
  • automatic decimals in price,
  • bidratio calculation,
  • yesterday bidratio (yesterday high and low) vs today price (=breakout of yesterday high or low)
  • today range vs average ADR

Would you mind to explain more about bid ratio? Any reading source material would be great.

See below post by XXXX re Today's Bidratio:
Regarding Yesterday's Bidratio, think of it like where the close price (price now) is in relation to yesterday's candle, so below zero means a break of yesterday's low whereas above 100% means a break of yesterday's high.
XXXX wrote: Sat Aug 31, 2024 6:59 am That is the Bid Ratio.

BidRatio: Look at bid ratio is basically the Daily Candle and where price is related to the candle.
If price is pushing to the upside of the Daily Candle then you will get a 100% if price is pushing to the downside on the Daily Candle then you will get a 1% . Or even a 0%.

How this is useful?

Well when you trade with the trend you don’t just want to trade with the damm trend. You want momentum behind your trades.
So if you want to buy then you obviously don’t want a 1% with the Daily Candle going down do you. That’s not trading with the trend now is it?

You would want that sucker in the 90% or above knowing that the Daily is going up right?
You would want momentum behind your trade right?


But!! And that’s a big but. You have to be careful. It’s a double edge sword that you have to learn to use.
A lot of guys use the extreme buy conditions to figures out that it’s over bought and now it’s time to sell.

So always remember get in at the beginning of the move!
Always!!!

Get in at the beginning of the move. If it’s already been going up then don’t get in. There’s a chance that it will come crashing down on you.

Get in at the beginning of the move.
