Hi Guys,

 

I have added the FXUltraTrend indicator below.

 

Is anyone able to modify it so rather than draw bars (like candles) that are green or red it draws a histogram. The value range for the histogram is always 0 to 1 the only difference is that it is either red or green for down trend or uptrend.

 

Thanks

Steve

Stevie, very quickly done, please see if you are satisfied. I have also added an option to change the indicator's period - currently set to 45 (same as the original indicator).

(substitute x with w, @ with a and 0 with o)

Hi sgsgsg,

 

Thanks for the reply but I don't understand "Ha Ha Ha"?

 

Steve

 

Stevie, all that sgsgsg is conveying is that FXUltraTrend is exactly the same as CCI histo - I guess also nothing more than a normal 45 period CCI indicator crossing the 0 line (as is evident from the code excerpt from the FXUltraTrend indicator) - and of course that it sells for 70 euros.

l_icci_0 = [color=red][b]iCCI[/b][/color](NULL, 0, FXUltraTrend_Period, PRICE_TYPICAL, li_32)
