miro1360 need help with a multi currency EA please
-
Hello Miro. I'm trying to build a multi currency ea that will look very similar to your signal dashboard ea. I'm using an indicator called "CSM Original" that you can find at Forex.Factory and it is in MQL format. My programming skills in MQL are "medium" at best. I don't know if maybe better to use array because the indicator output is in .CSV format or use to chart objects to control the ea. Instead of currency "pairs" strength, I need the ea to read the individual currency strengths to form a signal.
Looking at the indicator, I would like to use the lines in the "trend summary" box. The strategy would be for example; the brown line "CAD" starting point at MN going up to W1 (greater than MN) then going up to D1 (greater than W1) then going up to H4 (greater than D1) and sometimes going up to H1(greater than H4 is a really good signal) CAD = UP
then "JPY" like the above but the opposite. JPY = Down so CADJPY = BUY.
Is this possible with FXDreema? and would you be willing to put your time into helping me with this? Thank you! -
with medium knowledge MQL language you can do it, you are able to code custom blocks
I see this indicator, but you need older metatrader versions to get this cms working ok, or as alternative you need recode this indicator for new version (maybe somebody did it and it is working with new versions, i dont know) ...
you need know how is this indicator working, you can get names of labels for currencies (these numbers from 0 to 100 ) and read values from these numbers and compare them, like this:
or you can save these values into array and sorting it in this array and than compare arrays
....
or you can read values from this trend summary, now question is how are these lines created, if it are buffers or it are trendlines? ... if this are buffers, read it easily as buffers, or if it are trendlines, read values as picture above shows (but for attributes numeric and select trendlines) ... -
Helo Miro. Thank you for your reply! Yes the indicator has been updated and it is working on the latest Metatrader platform, I am using it. 0_1499184899389_CSM original.mq4 Maybe you can look at this and have a better idea how I can do this? Thank you very much for your time, I really appreciate this help!

there are some include files needed for open indicator, so I cant open it now without these includes (if you have them?) ... and you tried something from what I typed above?
-
Yes, I'm sorry I had forgotten about those. 0_1499188985480_hanover --- extensible functions (np).mqh and 0_1499189004050_hanover --- function header (np).mqh . I think these are the right ones. Maybe the signals dashboard ea can be modified to use this indicator instead of RSI / MA? Thank you again. I work nights so I have to go now but I can still check your posts from work. Thank you again Miro!

is not working with new build, a lot of errors from those includes ... they are for old build
-
OK sorry Miro. That is very strange because I am using this indicator with newest MT platform. Maybe those are the wrong extensions I uploaded. I will check later tonight (early a.m.) and will upload the correct file. Thank you for being patient.

Hi Miro. Yes those are the correct files, they seem to work fine for me, I'm using MT4 ver.4 build 1090. Very strange. Oh well, I will try to play around some and if I can get the ea to work I will post it. Thank you again very much for your help...
