Indicator requests from lua to mq4 and mq5

Postby fxcode19 » Mon May 25, 2020 6:19 am

Hi would it be possible to code these previous Marketscope lua indicators from the forum, into both Metatrader 4 and Metatrader 5 versions.

1) Could you please make the very first draft of the SOT indicator, as it was originally coded, available in both mq4 and mq5. This is the third post of the thread dated Wed Nov 07, 2012 6:15 am

2) Could you please make both the Candle Direction Predictor and Historical Candle Direction Predictor available in both mq4 and mq5

Many thanks

Hello Apprentice, thank you very much for posting the indicators so far. I found a few issues with both the Candle Direction Predictor & Historical Candle Direction Predictor.

Candle Direction Predictor


MQ4 candle direction predictor is only showing arrow predictions in one direction only over the whole chart, it isn't showing a variety of up and down arrow predictions over the whole chart.
This is testing it connected to the trade server and also disconnected from the trade server.

MQ5 candle direction predictor also is only showing arrow predictions in one direction over the whole chart as well, instead of up and down arrow predictions over the whole chart.
This is testing it connected to the trade server and also disconnected from the trade server.

Both the mq4 and mq5 candle direction predictor don't have a loop back period setting like the historical candle direction predictor does.

Also both the mq4 and mq5 candle direction predictor don’t have a percentage calculation prediction on the current live bar, like the original Marketscope lua version has.

Historical Candle Direction Predictor

MQ4 historical candle direction predictor only works when “live” is selected in the settings, when you select “on bar close”, nothing displays on the chart when you choose this setting. Also it doesn’t show the latest current bar, it’s prediction is for one bar back on the previous bar.

MQ5 historical candle direction predictor doesn’t have “live” or “on bar close” in it's settings like mq4 has. Also it doesn’t show the latest current bar, it’s prediction is for one bar back on the previous bar.

MQ4 historical candle direction predictor updates on the 1 minute chart when it is set for “live” in the settings (it doesn't work at all when you select “on bar close” in the settings) It is still displays one bar back and not live on the current bar, like the Market scope lua version does.

MQ5 historical candle direction predictor has no “live” or “on bar close” settings to test, and on its live 1 minute chart, it doesn't auto update as the bar is closed like mq4 version does. When it is loaded, it also displays one bar back and not on the current bar, like the Market scope lua version does.

The MQ5 historical candle direction predictor only displays its up and down arrows when it is connected live to the trade server, this historical candle direction predictor doesn't show anything when it is not connected to the trade server.

SOT Request

Thank you very much for posting the SOT mq5 indicator with arrows. The original SOT mq4 & mq5 request was for the very first draft of the indicator, it was the 3rd post of the thread dated Wed Nov 07, 2012 6:15 am viewtopic.php?f=27&t=25492.

It is a line calculation that goes between both a negative and positive value. (Not just a positive value which is absolute value calculation only).
The calculation would be (open - close) / volume
Or alternatively (high - low) / volume

Many Thanks

Hi Apprentice, thank you for your reply. I’ve also found some further calculation issues regarding development reference 1519.

I’ve noticed some different arrow predictions between the MT4 and MT5 versions of Historical candle direction predictor. In the screenshots below, the look back period is either 3 or 8 over all the charts, and I took screenshots for loop back 0, 3 & 8 with the exact same setting each time for each MT4 & MT5 chart displayed.

These were then placed against the Marketscope lua Historical candle direction predictor chart for comparison, but it seems the MT4 and MT5 versions are producing differing up or down arrow bar predictions, even when they have identical look back and loop back settings in common (the instrument used in the screenshots is GBP/USD 1 minute bars, different brokers but very similar candles on the chart to test the indicator).

In the Marketscope lua Historical candle direction predictor version, there is no loop back setting, so each Marketscope chart shows either look back 3 or look back 8 in all the screenshots (for comparison against the MT4 & MT5 charts).

Also I haven’t been able to compare Candle direction predictor MT4 & MT5 against Marketscope, as currently both MT4 & MT5 versions are only showing all arrows in one direction only, all these screenshots below were for Historical candle direction predictor, but Candle direction predictor could potentially have this calculation bug also in the mq4 & mq5 versions.

Thank you.
