Re: MT4 Indicator requests and ideas

Im using this indicator on tradingview for scalping, it works amazing, just make sure to take profit.
Would be awesome if this code works in mt4, im sure many could earn with this one.
i personally use it on 15m TF with a MACD and wait for candleclose before entering, let it run for 1-2 candles before take profit and have SL just above the trendline break = small losses (the few it incurs)

the code is open source thankfully, i just hope it is possible to convert it :)

I have taken a look at eurusd 1 minute on tradingview and i think by default it repaints. Maybe show only confirmed breakouts box should be selected.

Yes definitely repaint.
Yeah but thats not the point, sorry if it was misunderstood,
i use it with a leading macd, and only on 15m tf (1m is bit too erratic.
entry if macd is going same direction as the break, if its a failed trendlinebreak, not lasting more then a candle, i already have a stoploss in at breakeven.
i passed mff 20k with this :)

but i wouldnt use it on a lower tf
