Unfortunately, currently it is not possible.
The appropriate strategy is not written.
The request, has not yet been given.

Specify for which the indicator you need it,
specify the algorithm that such strategy should followed.

Does this work in all time periods? I do not think it is working well in the 1 day time. Does anyone have better settings?

You can try to use Strategy Optimizer to find better Setings.
Generally, the parameters vary from time frame to time frame.
Currency pair to currency pair.

Hi,

I found out while testing the indicator, that when the indicator was supposed to show a sell signal, it displayed it as neutral. At times, I also noted that some of the buy signals were not triggered depiste meeting all conditions.

Please check the codes and keep up the good work.

Much appreciated

Not in my testing.
Can you re-read specification.

In addition to Standard 3 MA Price definition
price> ma1>ma2> ma 3 ---------- green color
price < ma1<ma2<ma3 ------------red color

This Indicator use Trend Indicator as an additional filter.
green color
price> ma1>ma2> ma 3
SuperTrend indicates Up Trend
red color
price < ma1<ma2<ma3
SuperTrend indicates Down Trend

Hi,

Your description of the indicator is correct. I will load and test again. As you can see from the image posted, when the conditions for the sell were met, the signal remained yellow instead of red.

The strategy request for this indictor is as follows:

entry options (long): when conditions are met and bar is green, option to enter at the next bar or (n) bar with option to select number of pips from close of current bar.

exit options: options to select when price retracts back to any of the MAs and also option to have a trailing stop which would be the end of the current bar or previous bar (n)

I do hope this make sense.

Your good work is so appreciated. Thanks

Hi

Is it possible to write the same code for Ichimoku (ICH) with
1) tenkan sen > kijun sen > Senkou span B => green
tenkan sen < kijun sen < Senkou span B => red
neutral = yellow

2) price > tenkan sen > kijun sen > Senkou span B => green
price < tenkan sen < kijun sen < Senkou span B => red
neutral = yellow

Thanks in advance

Kaya :)
