Perhaps a good idea to weight the calculation.

Do you have an idea of formula? Right now, the formula is as simple as 1+1. Maybe that a coefficient (i don't know if this word is good in english) applied to the high TF is a good filter for false signals.

you can get rid of 2 buffer numbers for sure by
Code:
  
extern bool enableBuf = false;
 if (enableBuf)  { SetIndexBuffer(0,TrendUPBuffer); SetIndexBuffer(1,TrendDOWNBuffer);}
then you can add to set buffers for true in the expert icustom
i havent tried doing that with icus but should work in theory\
or u can set it to true by default then just disable it when your not using it with an ea

Thank you for anwering all of my questions. My monitors at the moment are 19", but I have solved the problem by adjusting my screen display settings to 1280 x 720 pixels, which now display the full length of the indicator perfectly. Thankyou for the template, which unfortunately didn't help any, as it required the settings changing.

As regards weighting the calculation, I don't have any suggestions for this, other than to speculate that the accuracy may be improved by adding bias to the longer TF's. I have traded for years, but I am sorry, I know nothing about EA's or programming and have only recently started using the MT4 platform, so unfortunately cannot help with this issue.

ii) If for example you are in a long trade, because trend was “Up” at time of entry and the trend now turns against you to “Down”, do you immediately exit the trade, regardless of what time? (You answered NO)

By answering NO, do I take it that even though the trade is going against you, you will stay in the trade until 00:00 GMTand only then exit if trend is showing "Down" and at the same time enter a short/sell trade? This means that you may have held the trade open for several hours incurring a drawdown, which may be in the region of 100-150 pips, especially with GBP/JPY. Exit strategies are a whole issue unto themselves, but I am just trying to get an exact feel as to how you have tested it so far.

As a matter of interest, what is the highest, single loss you have suffered to date?

Thank you for your time and sharing.

Any skill of programming is required for an answer. I just need your experience of trading for know which TFs i can add a "coef" for make them more accurate. After, i haven't any problem for implement it in my code.

All my tests were made without SL. If the target isn't reach at 23:59 GMT and if the trend isn't the same way (buy or sell) of my opened position, i close. Yes i can lose some pips, but many times the trend reverse and if i had set a SL, the trade close whereas the trend go in your way.

Right now, before sleep i set a stop to 100. If the GBP/JPY return to its volatility of the beginning of this year, i would increase. When i wake up, it's time to me to look at the 23:59 GMT rules!

Big Joe is an unknown quantity at this point
Please think about 15 " screens runs @ 1024 x 768

If you have issues to do that, you can make an external true/false to show or not the open trade analysis, in order to reduce size

I don't know how to reduce more than this. There are many informations to display.

If someone have an idea ...

FerruFx

maybe try using the letter DN for down and then on the headings do something like

MA MA
20 50

about all I can come up with would help a little

Specially for the small screens!

Right now, the calculation is:

If .... is true UP1=1 Down1=0 else Up1=0 Down1=1
UP = (UP1+UP2+...UP112) / 112 *100
Down = (Down1+Down2+...Down112) / 112 *100

By adding a coef, it sould be more accurate. What do you think about this :

M1: x0.7
M5: x0.8
M15: x0.9
M30: x1.0
H1: x1.0
H4: x1.1
D1: x1.2
W1: x1.3

This gives high TFs more "force".

Thanks all here for your opinion before i implement it.
