Simple Question For Mql4 Programers: Changing The Di+ And Di- Periods Of Adx

New comment
 
 

The variable is:

//---- input parameters

extern int ADXPeriod=14;

Change the value from 14 to whatever period you want to.

 

I have tried altering that already

I have already experimented with changing the line: extern int ADXPeriod=14;...... As you probably already know, the ADX indicator is comprised of 3 lines; the main ADX line, as well as two other lines (DI+ and DI-). It turns out that changing 14 to another period only alters the period of the main ADX Line... I am trying to change the periods of the two other lines plotted on the ADX indicator (the DI+ and DI-)... It is not possible to do this in the indicators properties window in the trading terminal... where in the above MQL4 Code might I be able to change the periods of the DI+ and DI-?

 

Create another Variable like this just below the ADXPeriod

extern int DIPeriod = 5;

Now go to the following lines:

PlusDiBuffer=iMAOnArray(PlusSdiBuffer,Bars,ADXPeriod,0,MODE_EM A,i);

and

MinusDiBuffer=iMAOnArray(MinusSdiBuffer,Bars,ADXPeriod,0,MODE_E MA,i);

change ADXPeriod to DIPeriod.

Hope this helps.

Thanks!!!

Thank you very much! ... That worked very well!

 
 

I cannot help you with your programming. But I am attaching this indicator and maybe it will help you.

Can someone post the compiled version of this? I need to be able to change the DI+ DI- levels but I get errors when I attempt to compile this.

 

Here you go, knock yourself out

ADX will even change color depending on it's direction

I have the DMI indicator and was curious if you could modify the adx line to change colors like the one you have? I find the DMI more accurate than mt4 adx.

Thanks in advance!
