Mike Medved Posted January 18, 2018 Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 Do you mean a trendline alert? You can draw a trendline on the chart and set an alert when that is crossed. Or you can just set an alert for when the price crosses a certain level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L W Posted January 24, 2018 Report Share Posted January 24, 2018 (edited) See if this will work. Try using the EMA of the volume to get a average. VolumeEMA100k.PBExport Edited January 24, 2018 by L W Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CryptoDips Posted January 24, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2018 (edited) Hello, Is there a way in MT that will scan for candlestick patterns or different triangles and wedges, like: Tweezer Bottom Bullish Engulfing One White Soldier Morning Star Hammer example:Â Â Edited January 24, 2018 by CryptoDips Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Medved Posted January 24, 2018 Report Share Posted January 24, 2018 If there is a way to describe the candle pattern precisely (not in ambiguous terms like "if the close is significantly lower than previous close") then yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CryptoDips Posted January 25, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2018 (edited) Here is a chart describing the patterns: Tweezer Bottom - 2 candles must have the same low point on down trend. Red and Green. Edited January 25, 2018 by CryptoDips Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CryptoDips Posted January 25, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2018 Bullish Engulfing - 2 candles downtrend Red and Green, the body of the Red candle fits inside the body of the green candle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CryptoDips Posted January 25, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2018 One White Soldier - RED candle and a GREEN candle in which the GREEN candle opens above the preceding RED candle's close and closes above its open. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CryptoDips Posted January 25, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2018 How would I create a scan for these patterns:Tweezer BottomBullish EngulfingOne White SoldierMorning StarHammer because the Open and Close refers to the Body of the candle. So how will I get the Candle Wick or High and Low??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok so let's take this one. 1st rule: red candle followed by green one (Close>Open && Close[1]<Open[1])  2nd rule: green candle's open above preceding red candle's close (Open > Close[1])  3rd rule: green candle's close is above previous candle's open if (Close > Open[1])  So you can do this using 4 rules in a Simple editor, or in Advanced you can do this: if (Close>Open && Close[1]<Open[1] && Open > Close[1] && Close > Open[1])  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CryptoDips Posted January 25, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2018 Yes thats why I came up with also... but is there away to get the high and low of a candle (the wicks)  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CryptoDips Posted January 25, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2018 hmm ok so if (Open < Close && Close > High[1] && Open < Low[1] && Open[1] > Close[1]) 1. Does this mean that the previous RED candle will be totally engulfed in the current Green Candle? 2. How would I scan for a Green Candle with NO Low Wick and Green Candle with NO High Wick (Hoji Candle Pattern)? 3. How can I scan for candles who's body are less than 20%-30% (Hammer Candle Pattern)? Also These are the Images of the Bullish Candlestick Patterns I need... This would be a great help to all that use MT if we can figure out how to succesfully scan these reversal single, two and three candle stick patterns...

How can I scan for candles who's body are less than 20%-30% (Hammer Candle Pattern)?   1. I just took the rules you gave and translated them exactly. See, there is no "engulfed" in the language. You just compare values. For example (High<High[1] && Low>Low[1]) would mean the current candle is inside the high-low range of the previous one. 2. Green candle with no low wick would be (Low == Open). Green candle with no high wick would be (Close = High). See how this works? 3. Less than 20-30% of what? See, you have to formulate the criteria in exact terms (20-30% is not an exact term) in order to write code to detect them.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CryptoDips Posted January 26, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 1. ok so how would I code candle body is less than 30%, which would make it a hammer or an inverse hammer candle in the above image??? Ok you mean the body vs the high/low range? (Math.Abs(Open-Close)<0.3*(High-Low)) 2. also how would I code if there is a gap between 2 candles like the morningstar 3 candle pattern in the above image? for going down: (Open<Math.Min(Open[1], Close[1])) 3. Also, how would I code a Doji or Spinning Top Candle. You would have to clearly define what Doji candle is. If it is one where there are wicks, but no body, it would be something like (Open==Close && High>Close && Low<Close)  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CryptoDips Posted January 27, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2018 Yes i have them thanks, 1.

In a simple rule, just compare EMA(13) one candle ago to EMA(13) on current candle. If the one candle ago is less than current, it is moving up.  If you want to check a local minimum, you can check if the value 2 candles ago was higher than 1 candle ago, and the value 1 candle ago is lower than current.

CryptoDips Posted January 27, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2018 (edited) ok do you have an example.... is it like this: EMA13[1]>EMA13[3] Edited January 27, 2018 by CryptoDips Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Medved Posted January 29, 2018 Report Share Posted January 29, 2018 If your EMA variable is called EMA13, then checking for a 3-candle local minimum would be: Â if (EMA13[1]<EMA13[2] && EMA13[1]<EMA13) Â Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CryptoDips Posted January 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2018 No the Scan Log meaning that shows all the symbols that were scanned, or maybe its the scan history log? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to view a scan log then add an alert to the scan. Click on Params after loading up a scan in the scanner. Add the alert the way you want them to show. The scan alert results will then be added to the Alert Log.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
