Alligator Candle

Hi cja,

Thank you for the sexy MA candle.

If you not mind, could you make Alligator Candle.

Refer to the picture if the candle close above the gold line(lips alligator)-The color candle should be blue.

If the candle close below the gold line the color candle should be red.

Thanks.

Hi

Just set this indicator to do what you require

1st the PRICE MA this way

1/MA1 = 1; MAI_MODE = 0; MAI_PRICE = 0;

2nd The ALLIGATOR line this way

2/ MA2 = 13; MA2_MODE = 2; MA2_PRICE = 4;

Then go into the code and change this line ( Line 97 Col 4 )

From this

double MA_2 (int i = 0){return(iMA(NULL,0,MA1,0,MA1_MODE, MA1_PRICE,i));}

Tothis

double MA_2 (int i = 0){return(iMA(NULL,0,MA2,

8

,MA2_MODE, MA2_PRICE,i));}

Changing the 0 to 8 will give you the correct shift value for the Alligator line

Any problems let me know

Changing the 0 to 3 will give you the correct shift value for the Alligator line

Sorry my fault i set you up with the wrong alligator line try the amended settings above. I set up the cross of the SMMA13 instead of the SMMA5

with a shift of 3 not 8.

NOTE I have altered the indicator inputs so that now the shift can be accessed without going into the code.

extern string IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII=">>> MA Settings >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>";

extern int MA1 = 1;

extern int MA2 = 5;

extern int MA1_MODE = 0;

extern int MA2_MODE = 2;

extern int MA1_PRICE = 0;

extern int MA2_PRICE = 4;

extern int MA1_SHIFT = 0;

extern int MA2_SHIFT = 3;

 

Thanks a lot cja.

Now the correct setting is found.

 

what am i doing wrong

Thanks a lot for the indicator cja. It should definitely be very very helpful. But if you look at the attached pic, I have put in the MA levels I am using in the indicator. As you can see, there seems to be something wrong. Looking forward to your reply.

REgards,

It is quite simple you have your lines set to an EMA setting and the MA Candles set to an MA setting that is why they do not line up.

Look at the comments on the top left they also tell you what the candles are set to.

Both the lines and candles must have the same MA/MODE/PRICE & SHIFT to line up.
