Thank you for the Oscillator.

Can a bigger time frame version be done, please?

Now guys that’s exactly what I’ve been looking for. Thanks a million.

Do you think it would be possible to add one more timeframe? I trade using 15min timeframe but I would like to see what is going on at the same time on 15min, 30min, 60min, 2hrs, 3hrs and 4hrs charts.

I’ve tried to modified your code, but as I am no programmer it was pure guessing. Can someone check it for me (or better still do the whole thing over again just with 6 timeframes), please?

Cheers

Something like this.

MTF.lua

While developing this indicator, I found a bug in the original indicator. This version inherited this problem.

Oh, just one more thing. The label makes the indicator somewhat illegible (ever so slightly). Can you, please, let me know how to remove the label or move it so that it is above and more to the side of the little squares?

Is it possible to remove the time frame labels in the bottom right hand corner of the heat map?

Thanks! Chris

Is it possible that you could remove the labels on the HEAT and place them all the way to the right and they stay there even when zooming in or better yet just have the option where the trader can select NO and no label.

Re: Elder Impulse System

compulsive · Wed Feb 23, 2011 8:28 am

Hey Guys,

I have notice that the HEAT map does not update accurately in real time. I notice that when switching from BID to ASK and back to BID at times it will give different colors and this is done withing seconds. Why is that?

Re: Elder Impulse System

Hey guys,

I submitted a request in the request section to have someone look at helping us out with tweaks to the heat map.

Hi, I cannot load the MTFindicator, I did manage though, to download the original version (the sytem). I get this message: An error occurred during the calculation of the indicator ‘ELDER_IMPULSE_SYSTEM_HEAT_MAP’. The error details: [string “Elder_Impulse_System_Heat_Map.lua”]:99: The indicator with id ELDER_IMPULSE_SYSTEM is not found.

Hi - I’m posting this statement wherever - hopefully to make people aware that there are some extremely dubious results coming from TS3.

Using the “correct” versions of the Elder Impulse System in the respective versions of TS: -

Main (candle) graphs of TS2 & TS3 are in full agreement but having installed the correct versions of the Elder Impuse System Heatmap it appears that (at least for the EIS Heatmap) that the indicator graphics of TS3 are running one candle timing period ahead of those as shown on TS2

There is a SERIOUS problem here… indicator behaviour is difficult enough to follow - we do not need random time shifts thrown in as well!!!

Sincerely, Bebbspoke

What is the forex instrument and time frame that it works better?

Re: Elder Impulse System

Bebbspoke · Sat Oct 29, 2011 12:10 pm

Hi Lino - you’re new to this - be VERY careful… TS3 is still very much in beta version. It is essential to ensure that you are running the correct version of the EIS that corresponds with TS3. The ONLY EIS Heat Map variant that PART works properly on TS3 is the most recent as posted 2810/2011 by Vasiliy Strelnikobebbspokev but this will ONLY display correctly if the Heat Map is in “bar” display mode. The system works for any symbol. Cheers, Bebbspoke

TS2 downloaded from the site of your broker is the last right version for using indicators published in this post.

Bebbspoke mentioned the version from this post: http://fxcodebase.com/code/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=6541 which is created for upcoming new TS2 version.

Hi, thanks for the signal. In TS or Strategy Trader, is there anyway to make an alert with a popup or sound when all time frames line up? I tried using backtest function but doens’t seem to work. It might need to be a strategy to create an alert. Thanks!

Hello,

I tried the ElderImpulseBar on the new beta version of TSII but its not working properly, nothing is showing up, any idea what can be the cause of this ?

This is the error it gives:

An error occurred during the calculation of the indicator ‘ELDERIMPULSEBAR’. The error details: [string “ElderImpulseBar.lua”]:78: attempt to index field ‘UP’ (a nil value).

Re: Elder Impulse System

jimmylai · Wed Jul 12, 2017 8:00 pm

Hi,

May I ask to add the alert in the MultiTimeFrame Impulse system heat map based on the following conditions?

Condition : 3 (No of color change parameter) out of 5 impulse colour have been changed in their corresponding time frame. (Here I use H1, H2, H4, H6, H8 as the example)

Example: At time 4:00 Impulse Color for H1 = GREEN Impulse Color for H2 = GREEN Impulse Color for H4 = GREEN Impulse Color for H6 = BLUE Impulse Color for H8 = RED

At time 5:00 Impulse Color for H1 = RED (change from GREEN to RED) Impulse Color for H2 = RED (change from GREEN to RED) Impulse Color for H4 = RED (change from GREEN to RED) Impulse Color for H6 = RED (change from BLUE TO RED) Impulse Color for H8 = RED (No change)

In the above example, no of color change is four and therefore meet the above condition. Alert will be made in this case.

It will be great if the no of color change parameter can be adjust by user as well. i.e. if this parameter configure to four, then it will make the alert if the no of color change at the same time is more than four.

On the other hand, as soon as the 2 UTs converged, I had an avalanche of signals in the same minute at each change of state.

For what purpose? If we do this, will no longer be synchronous with the candle chart.

Re: Elder Impulse System

Yes, I suspected the answer after I asked the question.

It would need to be like MT4/MT5, a feature to be able to shift the chart to see the time unit.

Currently I have to shift by hand.

I asked, you never know, a solution, a trick.
