Rounded Number Tool (The Figure)

The Figure.png

Example of use of round numbers, for support and resistance level definition.

The lines of resistance, support based on mass psychology. Similar reasoning, the behavior of a large number of investors in the market, allows sophisticated investors using them.

People love round numbers.

When placing an order (Entry, Stop, Limit) investors prefer round in front of random numbers. This phenomenon has been proven and tested on the market, smart investors to predict the level of resistance and support.

Another interesting phenomenon is that the strength of some level of support or resistance tends to increase with increase in the level of rounding.

For example, the 1.0 has more power than 1.5, 1.5 has more power than 1.6, 1.6 has more power than 1.61 …

Yet another interesing tool from Apprentice. Cheers

There seems to be, however, something wrong with it. It slows Marketscope down.

Would it be possible for it to show only the levels relevant for the current price movment range. Perhaps if there were fewer lines to draw it wouldn’t slow things down. For instance, we could manually set the range to be marked with round number lines. Also, can 50-pip lines be added? That would be most helpul.

Ideally, I think, the original grid in Marketscope should be much more customizable. It should be up to the user which lines are are actually shown (horizontal/vertical, 50/100 pips etc.)

Once again, thank you Apprentice for your great work.

I totally agree, platform itself should have more customizing options. Something else I really miss is a trading day separation vertical line.

In regards to this tool, I would be interested to have 50s included in it.

I’ve uploaded the modified version. Please check whether it is what you need. Regarding customizable grid, I’ve already added this suggestion to our “Wishlist”. Hope this feature will appear in one of the next updates

Thank you Apprentice.

On second thoughts, would it be very difficult to change this indicator to allow the user to specify the round figures marked, e.g. 10, 20, 25 etc.

That would be very helpful. Cheers

Hello, great tool. But I face a problem:

First 2 versions don’t show up at all. Last version shows only level 1. So 1,300 1,3100 and 1,3200 do show and 1,3025 1,3050 and 1,3075 etc do NOT show up.

Could you please check the indicator?

Thank you

i was looking for the process of adjusting the price interval on the right hand axis of the price chart and found this tool. excellent. Is it possible to adjust the interval?

With this tool, could you label the level a little more clear. It looks like it’s in the following order but not labelled:

level 1 10,000 pips level 2 5000 pips level 3 1000pips level 4 500 pips level 5 100 pips level 6 is 50 pips

Also, as is the case with many indicators it would be better if the user had the option to choose the level interval.

thanks.

I also find that it slows Marketscope down. I have many open charts (for a number of currency pairs) and I added this indicator to all of them (its 2nd version, with the lines on the 50’s). Then Marketscope became a bit “slower” and a bit “sluggish” …

I may be mistaken but I do not have a sixth level on the latest version. Can we check this indicator to make sure it is coded for the 50 pip level.

Thanks,

may we have a strategy based on round numbers:

buy or sell if price touch and reverse a round number

cross option could also be good.


Re: Rounded Number Tool (The Figure)

Apprentice · Mon Jan 28, 2013 1:47 pm

I Believe that you can use some of existing strategies, Like this one. viewtopic.php?f=31&t=20142&p=41784&hilit=line+cross#p41784


Re: Rounded Number Tool (The Figure)

I would a strategy that trade as any round number is crossed or touch and reverse.

Did Linecross do this? I don’t understand.


Re: Rounded Number Tool (The Figure)

Apprentice · Thu Jan 31, 2013 5:44 am

You have to set the levels manually in Linecross. Could you describe in more detail this strategy.

Something like this. Buy/Sell on CrossOver/CrossUnder Sell/Buy on Reverse Down/ Reverse Up Rounded Number Tool have multiple lines. How i can make this strategy work for you.

It should recognize any round number depending on decimals

for example for eurusd one decimal is like 1.3 or 1.4 1.5 etc 2 decimals are like 1.35, 1.40, 1.45, etc.. so it should cross or reverse on round numbers at a specific decimal setting

I noticed there are 6 level parameters. I would like to specify numbers ending in 25 50 and 75 in addition to the default of 100. Is this possible?

Thanks for your help.
