Does anyone know how to fix the error in this indicator? It causes huge Log Files and the Journal Log's message says:

invalid integer number as parameter 2 for iSeries function

Any idea where the error is?

Should "timeFrame" be declared as "int" rather than "string"?

hi goover...IMHO, divergence occur when price make a couple of high/low while indicator showing the opposite. For example, price make a high/low, then make a new high/low & again make new high/low while the indicator show opposite of the price direction.

most of indicator that use histogram based like macd/ or line crossing like stochastic or single line like rsi/cci can show the divergence. Just notice the high/low of the price & watch how the indicator react to the price.

Using another trend indicator as a support to a divergence approach trading may give u better result because we dont know how strong the price will move after the divergence occur. Sometime price move very far after divergence & sometime it move a little then turn back. So better combine it with another trend indicator or another approach such as price action/japanese candlestick, fib tools, support&resistance, trendline etc.

just my 2 cent & im also a newbie & sorry for my bad english.

hope this help u.

What indicator are you asking about adjusting?

You could just change your chart properties... menu tools/options edit max bars in history/chart. See screenshot.

[Foreverold]

you can see a divergence in any indicator. CCI, RSI and even a moving average. For a moving average simply change the settings from a chart window to a seprate window

Hi,- an indicator for confirmations is Stop_reversal_bluestops.mq4 (only it draws so many arrows it slows everything down. Using this EA ...v1-beta below in demo mode helps find divergances and the indicator below helps too.

MACD Histogram

Does anybody have a correct MACD histogram indicator that is easy to use for divergence purposes. The standard one with MetaTrader seems to give completely different readings to any other package. I have one custom indicator , which has the signal lines as well but the histogram bars can be very small and not easily readable. The only way i have found to fix this is to fix the scale but this can cut off readings sometimes.
