SuperTrend indicator (new version)

[Nikolay.Gekht]

Modified version of the Olivier Seban Supertrend indicator

On fxcodebase the indicator was initially published here: viewtopic.php?f=17&t=605

The indicator is just another trend detector.

This version has the following advantages:

1) The display style is changed from lines to dots, so now the indicator does not "hide" 1-bar switches between red and green as it was in the previous version.

2) The indicator now works correctly on "alive" data, not on historical data only.

Hello,

I have briefly looked for a supertrend signal/strategy and found 'ssl supertrend'. I suppose supertrend dot and ssl supertrend are different?

If so, and if one does not exist, would it be possible to get a 'supertrend dot' strategy?

thanks for work w/this indicator...

Do you mean this signal?

Yep, that's the one I found.

The question is if whether or not they are both the same indicator?

'SuperTrend Dot' sounds like it's different than any previous SuperTrend indicator. I'm just wondering if the SSL strategy is using an older SuperTrend, or if the SSL strategy has been updated and is now using the new 'SuperTrend Dot' indicator.

Hello Alexander, would it be possible a dashborad for SUpertrend? I mean, is possible to show all the pairs/index etc etc in a vertical column and show an arrow (up or down) when and only when the "dot" changes colour, leaving the arrow visible for a specific period? (for example choosing to leave the arrow visible only for 10 or 15 or 30 minutes)
something similar:
4H D1
EUR/USD up
USD/CAD down
EUR/GBP
AUD/USD up
GER30 down
ITA40
etc etc

Many thanks, have a nice day. Bac.

Hello Apprentice,

I am having a hard time with the colors of the dots due to my poor eyesight.. is there anyway to change the dot to a different shape for up dots and down dots instead of just color showing the direction... thank you!

johnnyrocket: Have you try to use line version instead.

Can you please replace the dots with instance:createTextOutput and webdings. i am color blind and it would be alot easier for me if i could pick one webding for a buy instead of a colored dot and a seperate wingding for sell or a red dots..thank you!
