I’m trying to use ATR Bands avgs and Vidya cmo - bands .ex5 indicators in an EA. I'm using GROK AI to learn and see if it can code the EA, however I only have the .ex5 files. I need some help. Could you please help me with these:
  • How many buffers does each of the two indicators have, and what does each one show (upper band, lower band, middle line, colour change)?
  • For the middle line with two colors (Vidya), how do the buffers show the trend direction?
  • Are there any extra buffers for trading signals?
Thank you.


vidya cmo - bands (mtf + btn).ex5


Atr Bands avgs (btn).ex5
Hello for Vidya, buffer # 2 is the middle line and buffer # 3 is the middle line color. The buffer # 4 is used for mtf calculation.

Code: Select all

   SetIndexBuffer(0,bandUp,INDICATOR_DATA);
   SetIndexBuffer(1,bandDn,INDICATOR_DATA);
   SetIndexBuffer(2,val   ,INDICATOR_DATA); 
   SetIndexBuffer(3,valc  ,INDICATOR_COLOR_INDEX); 
   SetIndexBuffer(4,mtfData,INDICATOR_CALCULATIONS);
For the Atr bands it is buffer # 0 is the middle line, buffer # 1 is the upper band and buffer # 3 is the lower band.

Code: Select all

   SetIndexBuffer(0,mb,INDICATOR_DATA); 
   SetIndexBuffer(1,ub,INDICATOR_DATA); 
   SetIndexBuffer(2,lb,INDICATOR_DATA);

Two indicators modified with the help of gpt chat, the first is the Wide range predictor that issues an alert when the histo becomes dodgerblue (too much strength) and the second is a deltaforce that issues an audible alert and has a threshohd for btcusd I use 100.0 and in eurusd I use 0.0026. If it is useful to anyone.

Dear Kvak

Hope you are well. I have been absent for some time due to being seriously ill, making a slow recovery now.

Would it be possible to do the G Channel indicator with a full set of MA types as you have used in the z-score eAverages 1.2 indicator ?
Just an idea that i believe could produce some amazing combinations.

Best regards

Hi,

Is it possible to make this indicator a bit smoother?

It actually gives some great signals and can hold trends well, but during indecision phases (like the circled part in the screenshot), it gets really choppy. I’m worried that if it’s smoothed too much, it might give late entries — so I’m trying to find the right balance.

Also, if anyone knows of an indicator that could complement this one during choppy conditions, I’d love to hear your suggestions.

Thanks in advance!
