@rydnek
Thank you for your fast answer and the attachment. My experience is that zigzig and revival in higher levels best work. Maybe you can test it in 4 H timeframe and post your experiences with picture? This would be great.

Where I can find the Ver 42 EA?

Go here
and here

Happy pips

As a long time user of zigs, and admittedly NOT a coder, Ive been trying to enter into a dialogue for a while with youse guys !

All of the "repaints" you refer to on ziggies and arrows are due to the "dynamic" nature of the overlays in question --- you simply CANNOT change that behavior -- move it a bit, one way or another, but no significant changes at all ! In many ways (as far as entries and exits are concerned) ziggies behave in similar ways to HA candles, in that they lag because they need to compute recent information.

While trading manually, I use a number of "pointers" but depend on "silvertrend", "super signals" and of course zig zag pointer. MORE IMPORTANT though, is the use of Barrys "support and resistance"
NOW, before you get nutzoid, notice that there will be multiple passes on each timeframe as the price finds its true exit, and of course what is good for the 15 minute chart is only an appetizer to what the H4 needs !

Quickly then --- with s+r set up, you have a "target" exit, which you can then confirm with fibs (if your "target" and the fib 50 are both fighting to live in the same place, THATS where I would place my tp -- if you got a few major ma's there also, pick out what tuxedo you wish to wear cause youre stepping out tonite !)

ANYWAY --- the ziggy pointer comes on, the ZZ-1 lights up and you figure its exit time, BUT ITS NOT AT SUPPORT ! Do you see ANOTHER arrow below the ziggy pointer ? Perhaps silverlining or supersignals ? ----- those indicators are simply telling you there is more downside room, so now look DOWN and see what support is lying around, basking in the sun and just waiting for somene to come visit !

MUCH later in the day or nite, you will find your price has dropped into "support's" home for a visit, because prices have to make a minimum of TWO PASSES from the 15 min chart to the H4 chart !

now go code that !

Thanks for your work

MP, can you gives a screen shot or two of an example of what your explaining.

Thanks,

Craig

===============================================

sorry, but the first example i found was of resistance and not support, but its all the same situation --- the white arrows pointing to the red arrows are the case in point and the red arrows are resistance areas NOT YET HIT.

further along, the currency will rise in value to what resistance reads on the arrows, which in this case are "super signals"

Is there a way to transfer or code the zig zag and alert to other platforms such as FXCM's or any other Non-Metatrader platform? I would like to explore other brokers that don't use MT4. Can anyone offer any thoughts? Thank you.

=============================================

EFX will help you code from MT4 to their language

BUT you can run MT4 charts for free and simply trade any other platform from them --- the only hitch is finding a MT4 broker whose charts "line up" with the broker youre using, as each broker has their own highs and lows, which have to agree with your trading platform.

for instance, although i use direct bank feed charts an Quotetracker charts, I also use "Golden Contract" (a russian broker) whose charts agree completely with EFX !

it takes a little research, but thats as close as i can get ya !

enjoy and trade well

could you tell me what timeframe you use in the chart?
I have download Golden contract MT4 before, tools and charts are pretty good , yet i worry this russian broker, is it a scam ?

what is the charge of the EFX conversion from mq4 ?

Thanks a lot

==================================================

i will say that golden contracts deal desk is "aggressive" if youre using market orders, but dead honest with limit orders -- other words, they WILL move their prices if you send in an exit as a market order, but they will hit it honestly if its a limit, but on the other hand it is of NO concern as youre simply using their demo charts.

there is no charge for EFX conversion !

enjoy and trade well
