Modifying MACD to Adaptive MACD
No, not previously, this article was very impressive. It was exactly what I was looking for; eliminating optimisation. I will definitely start coding in this new way. I recommend everyone to explore this kind of indicator development. Thank you very much.
Here is the rest of the information mentioned earlier:
I am discontinuing the development of this indicator, but I still want to know what went wrong.
I have edited a copy of the MACD.mq5 file in the program dir: "...Indicators\Examples\MACD.mq5"I have created these extra variables:
input int FastEMA_F=3; // Fast EMA's fast var input int FastEMA_S=31; // Fast EMA's slow var input int SlowEMA_F=2; // Slow EMA's fast var input int SlowEMA_S=30; // Slow EMA's slow var
I have replaced the iMA(...) function calls with iAMA(...) calls:
ExtFastMaHandle=iAMA(NULL,0,InpFastEMA,FastEMA_F,FastEMA_S,0,InpAppliedPrice); ExtSlowMaHandle=iAMA(NULL,0,InpSlowEMA,SlowEMA_F,SlowEMA_S,0,InpAppliedPrice);
This is the result:

Hi I was modifying the MACD source code to make an adaptive MACD.
The idea was to replace the conventional moving averages with Adaptive Moving Averages.
All I did was the following:
The Adaptive Moving Averages required 2 more parameters each, so I added two more input variables for each MA used in the MACD.
The functions iMA(parameters...) were replaced by iAMA(parameters...including the two new variables).
That's it.
When I tested the indicator, it did not display anything, and the maximum and minimum values on the chart was "...#inf...-something".
At the moment I am at university, and don't have the code with me. I will post the rest of the information later today. If anyone can already see something wrong with this, please let me know.
Thank you
