Scalper Buys/Sell Replica

Recommended Posts

Please just select all, copy the text in the code box and paste into any text editor and save the text file as something like 'scalper.efs'.

 

You can also do this (copy and paste) into the Esignal tools, EFS, editor. Please study the video here if you are not familiar with Esignal : http://www.esignalcentral.com/university/esignal/tutorial/javascript/master-2.html

 

Perhaps someone here or on the Esignal support forum more familiar with EFS can answer more detailed question on this subject.

hi traderlu.

 

Thats a nice one. Thanks for your goodwork and hardwork. How can I incorporate this on mt4 platform.

 

Cheers

 

Here are the indicators for meta trader 4 one has some bugs fixed I think, though not sure what they are, another thing is I wanted to ask if this is the proper way the indicators should work - the white bar is actually colored white after 3 more bars close? Is this normal, or part of the strategy? Please see the attached video (sorry for the trial watermark, I haven't purchased the software)

 

Thank you!

 

 

EDIT: Sorry but it seems I cannot attach .ex4 files unfortunately so I will just post the link to the forex-tsd thread where you can download them, thanks!

.Some .ex4 files are pre-compiled files that many folks don't like because they don't know what's in them (viruses, trojans, keyloggers). Is there a open source mt4 file that you could post or point us to?

Ah yes......reckon the indi is expired.

 

i tried for a while but does not update now.

just for info.

 

if it works for u thats great.

 

wishing u lots of pips

 

 

both of them now working? I am surprised because they both work for me, I messaged the person who posted the indicators there and hope he replies, though I checked he was last active on 5.5.08 ... but still something might come out... if not I will hire a programmer - I know a good one, to program it. Did you try changing the account number? I mean signing up for a demo in MT4 again ... thanks!

gd to hear. i've stopped using it but have it on another platform.

U know TTM has a trading strategy he uses with the scalper ?

 

Its 3 bars late and stop just above the scalper signal.

But for Fx I reckon u need to fine tune using it.

maybe as a pivot point .

 

all the best

 

I thot it worked relatively ok with i-paramount where u have the time zones established. The H n L for the timezone is determined and scalpersignal close or at H or L cud work out.

 

Just an observation.

Traderlu - thanks for your help on this indicator. I could use some your help on how should the code be written if I wanted to use it in a Radar screen on Tradestation? i changed the colors so the bars a blue for a short and white for a long...I am assuming this is the same code you have posted..

Thanks for your help!

 

The code is:

 

{Scalper Buys and Sells 7/18/2007

Written by Luis Gomez

inspired by John Carters "Mastering the Trade"

}

 

inputs:

buyColor(white),

sellColor(blue),

width(3);

variables:

highBarsAgo(1),

possibleHighBarsAgo(1),

possibleHigh(-2),

hightoBeat(-1),

barsSincePaint(1),

lowBarsAgo(1),

possibleLowBarsAgo(1),

possibleLow(10000001),

lowtoBeat(10000000),

triggerPriceSell(-1),

triggerPriceBuy(1000000),

trend(1),

_UP(1),

_DOWN(-1),

_ON(1),

_OFF(-1);

 

 

//***************************************************

//****** Find and plot the highest swing high *******

//***************************************************

 

if trend = _UP then begin

if swingHighBar(1,H,2,barsSincePaint+2) > -1 then begin

possibleHighBarsAgo = swingHighBar(1,H,2,barsSincePaint+2);

possibleHigh = H[possibleHighBarsAgo];

end;

 

if possibleHigh >= hightoBeat then begin

highBarsAgo = possibleHighBarsAgo;

hightoBeat = possibleHigh;

triggerPriceSell = L[HighBarsAgo - 1];

end;

 

if C < triggerPriceSell and

highest(high,highBarsAgo) < hightoBeat then begin

plotpb[highBarsAgo](H[highBarsAgo],L[highBarsAgo],"",sellColor);

alert("Scalper Sell");

trend = _DOWN;

barsSincePaint = highBarsAgo-1;

hightoBeat = -1;

lowtoBeat = 10000000;

triggerPriceBuy = 10000000;

triggerPriceSell = -1;

highBarsAgo = 1;

possibleHigh = -2;

end;

 

end;

 

//***************************************************

//****** Find and plot the lowest swing low *********

//***************************************************

 

if trend = _DOWN then begin

if swingLowBar(1,L,2,barsSincePaint+2) > -1 then begin

possibleLowBarsAgo = swingLowBar(1,L,2,barsSincePaint+2);

possibleLow = L[possibleLowBarsAgo];

end;

 

if possibleLow <= lowtoBeat then begin

lowBarsAgo = possibleLowBarsAgo;

lowtoBeat = possibleLow;

triggerPriceBuy = H[LowBarsAgo - 1];

end;

 

if C > triggerPriceBuy and

lowest(L,lowBarsAgo) > lowtoBeat then begin

plotpb[lowBarsAgo](H[lowBarsAgo],L[lowBarsAgo],"",buyColor);

alert("Scalper Buy");

trend = _UP;

barsSincePaint = lowBarsAgo-1;

possibleLow = 10000001;

lowtoBeat = 10000000;

hightoBeat = -1;

triggerPriceBuy = 10000000;

triggerPriceSell = -1;

lowBarsAgo = 1;

end;

 

end;

 

barsSincePaint = barsSincePaint+1;

if trend = _UP then highBarsAgo = highBarsAgo + 1;

if trend = _DOWN then lowBarsAgo = lowBarsAgo + 1;

setPlotWidth(1,width);

Anyone know if it would be possible to modify the code to put the dot on the bar it actually signaled rather than the swing high/low?

 

I find my entries and the dots firing off often coincide to the exact bar, but sometimes I think they are sooner and vise versa. But its impossible to backtest the idea because you can't tell for sure when the actual signal would've taken place using the current code.

 

I've tried to modify it to no avail. Anyone able to help?

Strategy code modified by XYGeek

 

White dot showme indicate location of Scalper painted usually 3-4 bars back. Yellow indicate actual bar where the end of bar signal came in. Strategy indicate where entries were made, next bar market. This may be profitable in a trend but not chop.

Wow, just loaded this on my s&p emini charts in multiple time frames and the accuracy is amazing, maybe even unparallelled! With my existing indicators I feel this is the missing link. Can't thank you enough, will report back on the progress! Blessings to you!!!

Don't get too excited just yet. Read through the thread what others have already pointed out and watch it live to see it only plots the highlighted bars several bars after they have formed. On static behind the fact charts, it looks amazing. Not so much on live charts.

TTM_SCALPER.ELD (5.8 KB, 1993 views)

Can anybody help me to get this indicator to work on a meta trader 4 platform.

Thankin you in advanced.

 

 

ELD file format is for TradeStation and MultiCharts.

It will not run in MT4.

 

Do a Google search, I remember someone has done a conversion for MT4.

(It might even be here in TradersLaboratory?)

    • Date: 22nd November 2024.   BTC flirts with $100K, Stocks higher, Eurozone PMI signals recession risk.   Asia & European Sessions:   Geopolitical risks are back in the spotlight on fears of escalation in the Ukraine-Russia after Russia reportedly used a new ICBM to retaliate against Ukraine’s use of US and UK made missiles to attack inside Russia. The markets continue to assess the election results as President-elect Trump fills in his cabinet choices, with the key Treasury Secretary spot still open. The Fed’s rate path continues to be debated with a -25 bp December cut seen as 50-50. Earnings season is coming to an end after mixed reports, though AI remains a major driver. Profit taking and rebalancing into year-end are adding to gyrations too. Wall Street rallied, led by the Dow’s 1.06% broadbased pop. The S&P500 advanced 0.53% and the NASDAQ inched up 0.03%. Asian stocks rose after  Nvidia’s rally. Nikkei added 1% to 38,415.32 after the Tokyo inflation data slowed to 2.3% in October from 2.5% in the prior month, reaching its lowest level since January. The rally was also supported by chip-related stocks tracked Nvidia. Overnight-indexed swaps indicate that it’s certain the Reserve Bank of New Zealand will cut its policy rate by 50 basis points on Nov. 27, with a 22% chance of a 75 basis points reduction. European stocks futures climbed even though German Q3 GDP growth revised down to 0.1% q/q from the 0.2% q/q reported initially. Cryptocurrency market has gained approximately $1 trillion since Trump’s victory in the Nov. 5 election. Recent announcement for the SEC boosted cryptos. Chair Gary Gensler will step down on January 20, the day Trump is set to be inaugurated. Gensler has pushed for more protections for crypto investors. MicroStrategy Inc.’s plans to accelerate purchases of the token, and the debut of options on US Bitcoin ETFs also support this rally. Trump’s transition team has begun discussions on the possibility of creating a new White House position focused on digital asset policy.     Financial Markets Performance: The US Dollar recovered overnight and closed at 107.00. Bitcoin currently at 99,300,  flirting with a run toward the 100,000 level. The EURUSD drifts below 1.05, the GBPUSD dips to June’s bottom at 1.2570, while USDJPY rebounded to 154.94. The AUDNZD spiked to 2-year highs amid speculation the RBNZ will cut the official cash rate by more than 50 bps next week. Oil surged 2.12% to $70.46. Gold spiked to 2,697 after escalation alerts between Russia and Ukraine. Heightened geopolitical tensions drove investors toward safe-haven assets. Gold has surged by 30% this year. Haven demand balanced out the pressure from a strong USD following mixed US labor data. Silver rose 0.9% to 31.38, while palladium increased by 0.9% to 1,040.85 per ounce. Platinum remained unchanged. Always trade with strict risk management.
