XMACD_HTF_Signal displays trend directions from three last bars of the XMACD indicator as three graphical objects, colors of which determine a trend direction.
Indicator input parameters:
A timeframe and a name of a financial asset used for the indicator calculation can be changed by the indicator appropriate input parameters. If Symbol_ (financial asset) input parameter is empty, the current chart symbol shall be used as a financial asset.
All input parameters can be divided into two large groups:
- The information about the input parameters of XMACD indicator can be found in description of XMACD indicator;
- XMACD_HTF_Signal indicator input parameters that are necessary for the indicator visualization:
//---- indicator display settings input string Symols_Sirname="XMACD_Label_";Â Â Â Â // Indicator labels name input color UpSymol_Color=Lime;Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â // Growth symbol color input color DnSymol_Color=Red;Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â // Downfall symbol color input color IndName_Color=DarkOrchid;Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â // Indicator name color input uint Symols_Size=34;Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â // Signal symbols size input uint Font_Size=15;Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â // Indicator name font size input int X_3=120;Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â // Horizontal shift of the name input int Y_3=10;Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â // Vertical shift of the name input bool ShowIndName=true;Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â // Indicator name display input ENUM_BASE_CORNER WhatCorner=CORNER_RIGHT_UPPER; // Location corner input uint X_=0;Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â // Horizontal shift input uint Y_=0;Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â // Vertical shift
In case several XMACD_HTF_Signal indicators are to be used on one chart, each of them should have its own Symbols_Sirname (indicators labels names) string variable value.
Place the XMACD indicator compiled file to the terminal_data_folder\MQL5\Indicators\.
The indicators use SmoothAlgorithms.mqh library classes (must be copied to the terminal_data_folder\MQL5\Include). The use of the classes was thoroughly described in the article “Averaging Price Series for Intermediate Calculations Without Using Additional Buffers”.
