Re: MT4 Indicator requests and ideas
17482Hello forex station family,
I would like to know if anyone had a zig zag type indicator that shows every low and high of the previous candle?(that stays "straight" when there is no high or low broken as on the screenshot)
Thanks Legat

17483Dear @mrtools,
I was wondering if it would be possible for you to convert the zigzag oscillator indicator into an MTF (multi-timeframe) version? I understand that this indicator repaints and recalculates, but I believe that it would still be useful for me.
Thank you for your time and efforts.

17485Colleagues, thank you for your great work, this indicator repaints in the current candle, could you please help me not to repaint?
Code: Select all
#property indicator_chart_window
#property indicator_buffers 1
#property indicator_color1 Red
//---- input parameters
extern double LongPeriod=25.0; // note that for an EMA you can have floating point numbers.
extern double ShortPeriod=8.0;
extern double ExtraTimeForward=1.0; // how much to further extrapolate location.
//---- buffers
//---- indicator buffers
double ExtBuffer[];
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+

int init()
{
SetIndexBuffer(0,ExtBuffer);
//---- drawing settings

//---- initialization done
return(0);
}

int limit;
int counted_bars=IndicatorCounted();
double ma1,ma3;
double p1,p3;
double t1,t3,t;
//---- check for possible errors
if(counted_bars<0) return(-1);
//---- last counted bar will be recounted

for(int i=limit-1; i>= 0; i--) {

17486Yes, i checked all fibo thread, but there is no one that is fully customisablemrtools wrote: Mon Jan 16, 2023 9:44 am IMO we already have a bunch of fib indicators here in the forum.
