QuoteDislikedIt is not what I am looking for since an alert of the color changes would be better.
DislikedStill hoping somebody out here will program an alert with a pop-up window. If you are interested I have an alert to signal when you are close to a horizontal line or trendline. You can set the values. I saw it on another thread and borrowed it.

DislikedMake sure you delete the old "4 TF HAS Bar2.mq4" file in dir. \experts\indicators, then save the new one from #566 .
Open it in MetaEditor ,insert a emty space and then compile it.
If you then open several charts windows with differents symbols all set to 1MIN. for testing, I'm sure you soon will see popup alerts window comming upIgnored
DislikedWow, very impressive. Are you trading manually or using the EA? Which TF are you trading?Ignored
DislikedTraders:
Here is what I have so far that I have closed out since last week of trading. The only reason I have one trade with a loss is because I closed all my trades out and didn't see that I had one trade with a loss. If I had seen that I would have kept it floating until it profited or the colors told me to close.
I want to reiterate something here also mentioned by Ace on an earlier post. I am unhappy for two reasons:
1. I am showing the entire trading community a trading method that is so simple and clear in design that dwarfs all other systems on the market. That is a bold statement to make. I will back this up with my recent statement. Yet I don't see the contribution for EA's and simple alerts.
2. I am unhappy with "Merlins" unwillingness to give me back my moderator status from a petty previous issue. I need that status to arrange my threads.
At this point you might be wondering if I really care since I do have a method that can make me wealthier beyond expectations. Here is the answer. I still believe there is some room for improvement that takes multiple minds to get this done.
I could leave like some other moderators and start a website and charge. I am not planning on doing that. I could ask you traders who believe this is a great thread to follow me elsewhere I am not going to do that.
I just want respect from this site and regain my moderator status. Maybe I'll never get it back and this post will further solidify the unresolve. I ask each and everyone of you (if you like this thread) to email "Merlin" and tell him that you feel Steinitz should have his moderator status back to organize the thread.

DislikedHi,
I could be very wrong but perhaps you should consider the option that maybe your system is not as good as you might think.
I mean, in the end it is just another moving average presented in a different way. Try creating a 12 ema and you'll see it moves just like your indicator.
Moving averages, as you sure know better than me, work good until the market turns choppy. For ranging markets, they are great....but in choppy times you'll end up loosing most of your profits.
As far as the MTF....the problem that you have to constantly manually reload it to refresh it makes it not so reliable.
I do not want to bring you down, so please do not take it personally, but when you are convinced you have got the best system and yet people stay away from it, you have to start to face reality and ask yourself: "am I being biased?"
Once again I could be very wrong so ignore me if you want, but I hate to see you feeling so desperate when people are not contributing to your thread.
