Indicator FX FISH 2MA by scriptor

[[Deleted]]

Hi all, would love to have the excuse of being A newby, but have been addicted to FX for 3 years !! Well I would not trouble the MQL4 community normaly ?, but as tini tiny problems go this one is HUGE, im not very computer literate & dont know how to use spell cheque so if Huge is not wright try jynormouse ?? I love all the different indicators you guys take the trouble to make & share with us all. Mainly I use standard indicators, or a version of them that I already understand the cocept of. I have very little chance of writing my own indicators & am hoping one of you kind guys or girls can explain in laymans terms what I am looking at. The FX FISH 2 MA ? seems to be like MCAD but I cant duplicate it with any settings & also seems similar to slow stochastic that I use of 25/10/5 togerther with 9/5/5 & a normal MCAD setting. This does the same thing but better. The historiagram seems to have a mind of its own sometimes, but the fast line above & below the Zero seems to be great at entrys & exits & more accurate if the slow line is near zero. This with a divergence on CCI, MCAD or divergence on the Histo of fx fish ?? In short this seems to be several indicators in one that I am already using. SO WHATS MY PROBLEM ???

I Dont Know Im just not happy using something I don't understand. Hope someone can help explain

Thanks David

Hi, do you know if it repaints at all? The histogram has some problem?

This is the same one Scriptor uploaded to codebase I take it.

I haven't used this indicator yet. I was looking for Fisher Stoch.
