Volty Channel Stop + bigger time frame version
Nikolay.Gekht · Fri Apr 30, 2010 11:10 am
Upd Sep 22 2010: The bigger time frame version is added. See below in the download section.
The indicator is a port of TrendLaboratory’s MT4 VoltyStop.2.1 indicator published at http://finance.groups.yahoo.com/group/TrendLaboratory The classic recommendation is to Buy when VoltyChannel_Stop long signal appears over SMA. Sell when VoltyChannel_Stop short signal appears under SMA. (http://www.tradingsystemforex.com/exper … op-ea.html)

Is it possible to make a version of this that shows different time frames and what direction the trend is in? It’d be nice to have the arrows in the top right hand corner similar to the multi time frame stochastic indicator.
