Bruce : between NT and excell... excell doesnt have "traders" friendly charting environment... also, data feed issues.... for example I am enjoying right now a global crosshair on NT that we didnt have on mt4, so you can see what happens on diferent charts more clearly...
Thats my two cents comparing the "traders" side of this two platforms... cheers Walter.

You have a lot more insight into indicator development, than I do which imo is the more important thing. Porting from MT4 is pretty easy most of the time, but designing an indicator takes more than that. What I did with the rainbow and bands is a whole different beast, most of the time it requires just some simple lines of code. And remember I only got like 4 weeks of on and off experience with NT myself.
I think you'll have an easier time on NT and less headaches. One of the drawbacks is that there aren't that many indicators by other people around so MT4 still has its merits.
Sorry, I wasn't aware of the problem, even coded an indicator some time ago that that has the same bug. Using colors in NT without lines/bars is very uncommon and it really takes some effort to get the colors saved.
Fortunately a guy at NT already did this before, otherwise it would have taken me days.
Hope everything is fine now, happy researching/trading.
Hi Sparrow... thanks for this new version here... I did tested and the templates are working just fine... color issue resolved...

I did a 1:1 translation of Bruce's code of the ADXVMA to NT.
Things could be simplified using more NT indicators, Bruce should be much better at that.
Hope I got it right, have fun.
Cheers
Wow... that was fast ¡¡ and it looks exactly the same...
one question, is it possible to translate adxvma6test3 ? this version has more inputs alternatives and its the ultimate waco version... also if we can add to this version a second line (included on the same indicator) that could be a signal line (average) with the alternative of choosing the type of average with averages : simple, linear weighted and Hull...
Hope this doesnt get anoying but it will create a very nice set of lines wich I was working on the 1 min chart at mt4... if we can get this pair of lines on a tick chart at NT.. it will certainly be very usefull...
let me share an example
i attach the mt4 indi as well... thanks Sparrow for this great contributions ¡¡ cheers Walter.

didn't want the chimp to get bored, who knows what might happen.
So here's your other thing to toy arround with, surprisingly looks a lot like the vidya vma rainbow.
Taking a bit of a break, development will be a lot slower once we have caught up to the MT4 stuff.
Choosing the type of average is still missing, that's one of the weaknesses of NT, it takes a lot more to do this.

Ok Sparrow ¡¡ now the chimp will go wild this weekend... he has a lot of nice tools on NT too full around ¡¡
he certainly is in a state of joy ¡¡¡ thanks a lot Sparrow ¡¡
cheers The Chimp.

thats what I mean... look for example the thick black and white lines
the black is the vma and the white is a Hull signal line... mmmm
Hello Walter;
Looking good.
Can you please post the same setup on a gbpusd chart or eurusd chart, as I do not have eurjpy data, and I therefore cannot compare your lines to my plot.
What are the exact parameters that you use on the adxvma and the Hull periods?
I haven't got the slightest idea, all I did was taking Bruce's work and porting it to NT. As I said before it's one thing to port something and another to design an indicator. The main credit should go to Bruce.
I was very surprised by the parameter's list myself, but if you want to toy with something, that's the way to go .
P.S.:
Great chart Walter, but the rainbow cover's to much of the price action for my taste, IMO 2 colors without the lines are enough, one for the faster part and one for the slower part. Adding lines to both ends of the rainbow( can be done with bands and an increment of 1 ) produces an ok result for my taste.
But being a noob, I am probably wrong .
