Probably about 76 seconds.


Can you snap that together please?

Make a bollinger where the ma can be selected from a drop down like Fat did in his modified Keltner?

Working on that exit metric as well, while Im painting. DB

final color final coat going on today, then staining ceiling planks building window seat installing floor, putting up trim and moving them in.

Question on the NT standard bollinger. If I wanted to be able to use ema or a diffetent ma for the calc...how hard is that for you? DB


Why don't you simply download this indicator?



It currently allows you to select between 12 moving averages. If you like I can make it 24.

LOL, well hell...... I just spent some time having @MWinfrey schooling me on using an enum as I had never used it before.

@Fat Tails, the one you have is definetely nicer than my little P.O.S BB indicator

But I feel like I need to post it anyway since I made it, at least I learned something new. Woot!!!

I disagree, yours has more bands, so it is not comparable. Also my indicator is quite old, I guess I will recode it, as I have made some progress in coding since. I always feel ashamed if I read what I have coded one year ago...

You can easily find more than that. Digital filters, super polished averages, zerolagging creatures, it is a fully fledged habitat.
