Re: MT4 Indicator requests and ideas

I found these popular TDI indicators of Dean Malone from 2006, maybe the first zone indicator.

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

Hi Frien4you with that version,  from what I can tell it would require a  complete recode.

Thank you Mtiwana but i think i uploaded the wrong indicator ..this is the indicator that was giving problems and i have also editted the original post
That indicator would not run in run-time either
It uses fractals and the signals are depending on fractals (ie: they do what fractals do - repaint). Anyway, here is a version that will work in backtest and in runtime
