Description & Settings

Related: i market price 2.1 - real-time price information indicator - another powerful indicator for MetaTrader 4 traders.

This indicator displays nine values for two different moving averages (MA), including the difference between sequential MA values and the difference between MAs in points.

Also recommended: informer: risk and order management indicator - similar indicator with strong performance on MetaTrader 4.

It offers options to set data display with positive or negative offsets and round values to specified decimal digits.
Displaying values for the current (zero) bar is not supported.

This indicator can also be used to display the Open, High, Low, and Close marks of bars, as well as the deltas between them. This includes, for example, displaying the sizes of candlesticks/bars from high to low.

For the MA marks (or bars) and the deltas between subsequent adjacent values, the colors in the indicator table change automatically based on whether the value has increased, decreased, or remained the same.

Calculations and modifications of values occur when new bars arrive, indicator parameters are changed, or the timeframe or symbol of the attached chart changes.

To adjust the number of displayed data cells, modify the number '9' in the code to a positive integer greater than or equal to 2.

The indicator table can be temporarily hidden by clicking the horizontal bar below the table heading.

The table heading displays the bar numbers for which the indicator shows MA values. The starting bar number can be adjusted in the indicator parameters to any positive non-zero value.

The indicator is designed for resource efficiency, avoiding tick-by-tick calculation and recalculation of MA and delta values. The limitation for current (zero) bars applies only to table values. Custom notifications (alerts) can be implemented, for instance, when the current price breaks through specific table values or when new table values meet certain conditions relative to old values.

You can view the parameters of each moving average by hovering the cursor over the table cells, provided the "show object descriptions" option is enabled in chart properties.

Instead of MA values, you can display data with positive or negative offsets in points from each moving average or bar mark.

To calculate values directly from bar marks instead of MA calculations, set the following parameters:

Period moving averages = 1
MA method = [Leave blank or specify]
Apply to = [Leave blank or specify]

To round MA values to a specific decimal digit, set the desired number of decimal digits in the "decimal digits" input parameter.

Indicator lines can be turned off in the input parameters. Line colors are determined by the direction of the first calculated bar value, set by the "shift (bar for first value)" parameter.

In addition to MA settings, input parameters allow adjustment of table offsets (X and Y axes), table cell size, font size, and colors. The table can also be brought to the front to avoid obscuring bars.

The maximum value for the moving average period has been increased from 500 to 3000 bars. This value can be changed as needed.
