Discussion of article "Advanced Adaptive Indicators Theory and Implementation in MQL5"

[MetaQuotes]

New article Advanced Adaptive Indicators Theory and Implementation in MQL5 is published:

This article will describe advanced adaptive indicators and their implementation in MQL5: Adaptive Cyber Cycle, Adaptive Center of Gravity and Adaptive RVI. All indicators were originally presented in "Cybernetic Analysis for Stocks and Futures" by John F. Ehlers.

Hello,

Using Meta Trader 5.0 build 489, I can not visualize the 3 adaptive indicators. Normal indicators (non adaptive) are displayed correctly.
Could you help me ?
Thanks in advance.

Which indicatores do you mean?

[blueyes]

I can not see :
adaptivecenterofgravity.mq5
adaptivecybercycle.mq5
adaptivervi.mq5

Thanks

These indicators demand for calculation the other indictor - CyclePeriod.mq5. Check whether you have that and see Journal in the client terminal.

int hCyclePeriod;

input double InpAlpha=0.07; // alpha
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| Custom indicator initialization function                         |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
int OnInit()
  {
//--- indicator buffers mapping 
   ArraySetAsSeries(Cycle,true);
   ArraySetAsSeries(Trigger,true);
   ArraySetAsSeries(Smooth,true);

   SetIndexBuffer(0,Cycle,INDICATOR_DATA);
   SetIndexBuffer(1,Trigger,INDICATOR_DATA);

   PlotIndexSetDouble(0,PLOT_EMPTY_VALUE,0.0);
   PlotIndexSetDouble(1,PLOT_EMPTY_VALUE,0.0);

   hCyclePeriod=iCustom(NULL,0,"CyclePeriod",InpAlpha);
   if(hCyclePeriod==INVALID_HANDLE)
     {
      Print("CyclePeriod indicator not available!");
      return(-1);
     }

   return(0);
  }

CyclePeriod.mq5 is located in ./MQL5/Indicators.
No compilation errors or warnings of the file.
When I am looking for CyclePeriod.ex5 file, I can not find it on my local disk ?

I find the issue=> it is OK now

The indicators should be one of the best indicators written in MQL5. As a beginner  for C++ and newcomer for MQL5, some of your codes give difficulty to me when I replicate it into C++.. For example C++ doesn't have isStopped()..

 

 Is there any easier way of porting your code into C++?, specially code for adaptive cycle function?

Someone knows how to change the interval period inded of 6 to 63 how the article says?

Thanks, in advance. 

[Daniel Osuna de la Rosa]

I find out the way to change the variable period for another different changing the costant 6.28318 and maybe the compesation number 0.5 at this equation "DC =(6.28318/MedianDelta)+0.5;" at the code of cycle period, if someone has the same doubt.

I've realized that maybe there is a mistake in the article or It's not very clear why describes DeltaPhase is restricted between <0.1, 1.1> and in the code it's between <0.1, 0.9>.

I want to say that this is only my doubts and my thinkings but it's a great article.

Thanks a lot.

Can I use these MQL5 indicators in MQL4 ?
