MP for the Metatrader 4 Platform

Recommended Posts

Hi Wal,

you can give a try to my implementation.

 

The indicator "sp market profile.mq4" has two modes:

1. daily: it plots mp day per day, for the number of 'days' parameter; I use this with a 30 min chart.

2. manual: you must write in a file 'filename' the start day and hour of the mp, as the sample files in EURUSD_H4.mp, ...; if file name is empty the filename is assumed <ticker>_<timeframe>.mp; I use it for H4 and daily timeframes.

 

There are common parameters for ticks, drawingto and to exclude asia, europe or us session (I use it for SP500, where I do not include asia session).

 

sp market profile log.mq4 is a script to log mp (quite raw...):

poc, +/-value area, +/-std3 area, +/-excess

 

MP Order.mq4 is a expert that uses those levels as trigger, order, stop and terget.

 

I would be interested to anyfeedback to improve it, expecially the expert (that is just my idea...)

 

Ciao,

Hi Taq,

jus copy everything (same as the unzipped) to the "expert" folder in the MT folder. Then start MT and drag the 'sp market profile' custom indicator i.e. in the eurusd chart and select 30M timeframe. You should see samething as in the picture. Better if you use bar chart.

 

Ciao.

I found some hint on the CBOT handbook; you should not draw a day by day mp, but you should try to see a distribution forming from a previous distribution when there is a initiating move from the previous POC. See my EURUSD_H4.mp file, where manually I set the starting time of the distribution (using mode 2 in the indicator params).

Of course it is challenging understand when a bar there is a initiating move, but minus developments should help.

Hi Mario,

 

Your indi is simple great!!

 

I would ask you if it's possible make an indi like this that plots a Volume histogram instead of MP histogram, with this formula:

VWTPO - This method distribues the volume of a bar over the price range of the bar. e.g. A 5-minute bar has a volume of 280 and a range of 1.5 points with a High at 1534 and a Low at 1532.5, then 40 contracts (=280/7) are loaded to each of the seven prices in that range: 1532.50, 1532.75, 1533.0, 1533.25, 1533.50, 1533.75, and 1534.

//Volume Weighted Time Price Opportunity - 
//Disperses the Volume of the bar over the range of the bar so 
//each price touched is weighted with volume
              BarH=High[i]; BarL=Low[i];
              int TicksInBar = (int) Math.Round((BarH-Low[i])/TickSize+1,0);
              while(BarL<= BarH) {
              index = (int) Math.Round((BarL-TheSessionLow)/TickSize,0);
              index /= TicksPerSlot;    //drop fract part.
              PriceHitsArray[1,index] += Volume[i]/TicksInBar;
              BarL = BarL + TickSize;

May given the choise of select TF for the calculation, the best i think is calculate it from 1M, but may it take too high pc resources.

Thanks.

Lubo.

 

P.s I like more Volume Profile (or called Volume at price, or by price). I took this part of code from a Ninjatrader indi.

Hi Taq,

to see alphabet you should select a convinient tick value in the indicator params, and it would change according to the time frame. i.e. i use for eurusd 10 ticks for 30 mins and 25 ticks for daily charts. Actually you can not see two mp in a single chart: to see separate asia and us sessions, use two charts and select only one session in the indicator parameters.

this is a great tool... can I ask for a couple of things, Initial Balance for ASIA, EUR and USA open, first hour of each open to have a coloured square box?

 

Thanks,

Guess

Of course, this is a good idea...

 

I am trying to use this indicator in a Strategy Tester, to do a bar reply; I apply it after starting the Expert, but I do not see changing, as it happens during live prices. Any idea haw to do it?

I am not sure, but there is this indicator, if this is off any use?

 

customcandle, it allows you to place custom time in any time frame, i.e in your chart is in a 15 min time frame at the moment, you can place 1 hour candles in this time frame.

 

try it, have a look and see if we can incorporate this into MP.

 

Of course, this is a good idea...

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!

    • As a man, the reality of life is the harshest part. I don’t mind looking older or becoming weaker over time; it’s nature.   Have you ever heard that the only people who will be loved unconditionally are women and children? Men will only be loved as long as they can provide until they are no longer needed. It doesn’t matter if you already did your best to get your kids to the best school or get the best things for them, if you stop before they’re done with it, there will be no thank you. The only thing they will remember is that they have to quit school at 15, ignoring all the previous 15 years of life you provided for them. The only people who will accept you, no matter what, are your parents. But in this situation, you might be that ungrateful child.   EDIT: Wow, I didn’t think this would get so much attention.   For those who disagree, I can only say that everyone has their problem. If you don’t get the chance to face such a thing, be grateful.
