Fantastic indicator and great support. Constantly looking for improvements and feedback on how to make it more optimal. Indicator does not reprint either. Highly recommend.
Kangroos and Shadows
as described in Naked Forex book.
This indicator includes also checks for RSI and Bollinger bands to give a better hint if the printed Kangaroo is a strong one or not.
User can configure how many candles are there to be checked for the "room to the left" per default the setting is at 15.
The indicator sends out an alert to the user and prints out an arrow where the big shadow and kangaroo is formed.
Works on every time-frame, Forex pairs, stocks, whatever there is on MT4.
Possible to show historic Kangaroo Tails and big shadows
Contact me for support.
Alert example:
Time: 2020.07.09 00:00
C1 to C10 are the previous candles from the Kangaroo and an indication if the kangaroo is larger (OK) or smaller (NOK) as the respective candle. e.g. C6 NOK means the sixth candle from the Kangaroo Tail is larger that the Kangroo candle
RSI indicator is depending on the threshold which can be set individually, default setting for sell is 32, and for buy 60. If the tail or shadow is below (sell) or above (buy) that threshold, OK is given
Bollinger indicator is checking if the tail is is lower (in case of buy) or higher (in case of sell) than the lower/upper Bollinger band.
