Gee fellas...let's not get carried away with all the excitement. I appreciate all your encouragement and praise. I probably won't be able to write anything else because my head is so swollen. However, I'd like a critical eye on the numbering to make sure it's right. trendisyourfriend already gave his evaluation. Would like a couple more before I do much more and find out we have a problem.

Currently, it marks the bar where the crossing occurs. I don't see any point in doing anything else there, at least not yet. We don't have enough in the way of entry rules yet to do anything more. Each trader needs to evaluate the bars that are marked to determine if you want to enter or sit on your hands. So marking anything beyond what I've done is a bit premature in my opinion.

While at it, why not modify the original CCI NT7 indicator in order to make it more sexy by adding some dazzling color schemes, green when crossing the primary positive threshold, red when crossing the primary negative threshold, gray when in between both primary thresholds. Using the histogram bar style by default would be cute.

I've tried that sort of thing before and to my knowledge you can't paint bars like that. When you color a bar, the whole bar gets the color and that's it.

WOW Mike!

It would seem there is nothing you can't do in your writing codes on indicators- pretty sophisticated....from identifying direction and strength in the markets to the sexy voice to say buy and another to say bye.....its all good. I have never written code. I'm not sure code can weigh the value of volume, strength of trend, price location in reference to where its been and to BBs, and the support and resistance areas, not to mention divergence and long bar moves and certain continuation bounces off the 20 and 31 EMAs and There is one more thing I will cover when I have the time that I have not seen mentioned to date. Just wait....so much going on.
Your code writing is amazing.
Thanks for the excellent effort, as many traders can use it and simplify their trading until the trades jump off the charts.

WK

Thanks...but there have been plenty of things I've wanted to get into code but were too complex for me to get done. My goal with any coding project is to make things easier to see and shorten the evaluation time and minimize mistakes taking entries.

We'll see where this road takes us.

What is "ZScore"?

An indicator someone posted in the Elite DownLoads. I added the background coloring. Are we in the "Elite" area? I can never tell. If we are I can post a copy of it.

I'm just a simple man trading a simple plan.

Look at the top of the page. If the hierarchy doesn't list "The Elite Circle", you aren't in the Elite area. This thread is not Elite for example.

That is available in the Elite area.

Thanks Mike. I get lost a lot. I usually pen my address to my shirt in case I wander off.

It is pretty painless to become Elite if you aren't already.
