In this introductory article, I address a few of the lessons one can take from the challenge rules that proprietary trading firms implement. This is especially relevant for beginners and those who struggle to find their footing in this world of trading. The subsequent article will address the code implementation.
The standard Heikin Ashi candle representation has an open value that is equivalent to an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of the Total Price , of which the alpha value of the EMA is fixed at 0.5 (equivalent to an EMA period of 3.0). In this dynamic version, the period can be changed to whatever value one wishes to use, which also allows one to approximate multi-time-frame analysis, or use the low or high value as a sort of trailing stop-loss. The crossing of the real Close price over the Heikin

This indicator is based on the original ZigZag provided as a source code example with MetaTrader installations. I rewrote it with some extra features for displaying the “depth” channel and the respective break-outs. It also allows one to observe prior zig-zag points. Optionally, it can alert the user when break-outs occur. The alerts can be simply on the terminal or also via push notifications on a mobile device, with your own custom text

This indicator was inspired by John Welles Wilder's average true range (ATR) , but with some extra information. Similarly, it calculates the exponential moving average of the true range, but using the standard alpha weight instead of Wilder's . It also calculates the average deviation of the range average, and displays it as an offset. This helps not only identify a change more quickly, but also its impact

This indicator is based on the original “ Time Segmented Volume (TSV) ” developed by Worden Brothers, Inc . However, I added an extra few features to this one. One can choose the price to be applied, instead of only having the default close price used by the original. One can also choose which volume weighting to use, including a pseudo-volume based on true range, or no volume weighting at all

This indicator implements the original “ Average True Range (ATR) ” developed by John Welles Wilder Jr. , as described in his book— New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems [1978] . It uses Wilder’s moving average , also known as the smoothed moving average (SMMA) , instead of a simple moving average (SMA) as used on MetaTrader’s built-in ATR indicator. The default period applied is 7, instead of 14, as per the description in his book
