MA’s on the side

Muchas gracias,

great idea !! it 's very useful !!

🙂

Will come back to look at this one as it is along the lines of something I want to do, es decir; I want to be able to display MAV values no matter what time frame I'm in - like show the daily200MAV and the 1hr200mav even if I'm in say the 5 gráfico mínimo

Will come back t it as I'm searching for something else atm........

I put in the original post that I didn't want to make MA changes for you, cause there's only like about a million different MA's combinations in MetaTrader (I'm sure I'm going to hear about that - I'm know someone on here has probably actually counted).

The post has been up less than a day and I have already had 3 requests for different MA's

Here's how you change the MA's - if you can type you can do this.

Open the mq4 file of the indicator in MetaEditor

Save the file under another name i.e. MA_Segments v2

Change the highlighted parts to match the MA you want to use. Replace the timeframe (PERIOD_D1) with one of these http://docs.mql4.com/constants/timeframes Replace the period (200) with whatever number you want. Replace the MA Method (MODE_SMA) with the one you want http://docs.mql4.com/constants/movings (Don't mess up the commas)

Change the red part of the variables to match your MA using this format MA_Timeframe_Period_MA Method

Change the green object names the same as you did the variables above. Note that the line and the label each have a name. (Don't mess up the double quotes)

Change the label text to match your MA.

Don't forget to change your comentarios también.

Click on Compile.

Gracias,

PD: Now you're a programer too!!!

The variables are at the top...

extern bool MA_D1_200_SMA = true; // set true to display

These are further down...

int deinit()
{
    ObjetoEliminar("D1_200_SMA");

        }        

    // A diario 200 SMA línea Change your comments too
    si (MA_D1_200_SMA) // draw if true
    {
    // if there is an old line delete it...
    si (ObjectFind("D1_200_SMA") != -1) ObjetoEliminar("D1_200_SMA");
    // and draw a new one.
    Crear objeto("D1_200_SMA", OBJ_TREND, 0, Tiempo[0]+line_leader, iMA(NULO, PERIOD_D1,200,0,MODE_SMA,PRICE_CLOSE,0), (Tiempo[0]+line_length+line_adjustment), iMA(NULO, PERIOD_D1,200,0,MODE_SMA,PRICE_CLOSE,0));
    Conjunto de objetos("D1_200_SMA", OBJPROP_RAY, FALSO);
    Conjunto de objetos("D1_200_SMA", OBJPROP_TIME1, Tiempo[0]+line_leader);
    Conjunto de objetos("D1_200_SMA", OBJPROP_TIME2, (Tiempo[0]+line_length+line_adjustment));
    Conjunto de objetos("D1_200_SMA", OBJPROP_COLOR, Lime);
    }

    // A diario 200 SMA text label Change your comments too
    si (MA_D1_200_SMA) // draw if true
    {
    // if there is an old label delete it...
    si (ObjectFind("D1_200_SMA_label") != -1) ObjetoEliminar("D1_200_SMA_label");
    // and draw new one.
    Crear objeto("D1_200_SMA_label", OBJ_TEXT, 0, (Tiempo[0]+text_shift+text_adjustment), iMA(NULO, PERIOD_D1,200,0,MODE_SMA,PRICE_CLOSE,0));
    Conjunto de objetos("D1_200_SMA_label", OBJPROP_TIME1, (Tiempo[0]+text_shift+text_adjustment));
    Conjunto de objetos("D1_200_SMA_label", OBJPROP_COLOR, Lime);
    ObjetoConjuntoTexto("D1_200_SMA_label", "D1 200 SMA", font_size, "Arial", Lime); 
    }
