Tap4Fibs – indicator MetaTrader 4

Creates Fibonacci levels based on the ZigZag indicator. Tap the “X” or “Z” key to scroll through each swing in the ZigZag, to the right or to the left. It can measure multiple Fibs very quickly.

Scroll with “X” to the right until the Fib is off-screen to hide it from the chart. Tap “Z” to bring it back.

Once on the chart, the Fib can be selected and dragged, or extended to anywhere on the chart. It will remain until a scroll key is pressed or a new candle is added to the chart. Users can also open the Fibo Properties panel to add or delete levels on the fly.

Multiple instances can be used by changing the input; “Fibo Name” for each instance.

The indicator will Print key numbers when pressed, that can be found in the Terminal >> “Experts” tab. Enter the new key numbers into the settings; “Back Key” and “Forward Key” to choose your own keys for scroll right and left, for each instance of the indicator.
