Inverted Chart EA

Inverted_Chart_EA

Utility Expert Advisor

Inverted_Chart_EA creates and maintains a mirror-inverted chart of any symbol and timeframe.
It automatically generates a custom instrument (e.g. US30_INV ) and keeps its price history updated in real time, with bars mirrored around a chosen pivot.

This utility gives traders a new way to analyze the market from a different perspective by flipping the chart upside down.

Why use an inverted chart?

• Highlight hidden patterns – price formations that look ordinary on the original chart may appear clearer when inverted.

• Challenge bias – seeing the market upside down helps reduce directional bias and improves objective decision making.

• Indicator testing – apply indicators or strategies on the inverted chart to check if their signals are symmetrical or biased.

• Strategy development – compare results of EAs or scripts on both normal and inverted charts to evaluate robustness.

• Training tool – useful for developing pattern-recognition skills without relying on pre-set expectations of direction.

Key Features

• Automatic inverted chart creation: generates <SYMBOL>_INV as a custom symbol.

• Live updates: continuously mirrors bars with a user-defined refresh rate.

• Pivot options: invert around the last closed bar or around a rolling window average.

• Auto-sync: adapts automatically to timeframe changes on the base chart.

• Chart management: optionally opens the inverted chart automatically.

• Safe symbol handling: reuses existing custom symbols, avoids naming conflicts.

• Normalized scale: 5-decimal formatting ensures consistent display across all brokers and instruments.

Inputs

• Suffix – text added to the source symbol (default _INV ).

• Pivot – inversion method: Last Close / Window.

• WindowBars – number of bars for Window pivot mode.

• LockPivotOnAttach – fix pivot at attach time (Last Close mode).

• HistoryBars – initial backfill depth.

• UpdateSeconds – refresh interval.

• AutoOpenChart – open inverted chart after build.

Notes

• The inverted symbol is non-tradable (analysis only).

• Indicators, scripts, or other EAs can be attached to the inverted chart for testing and study.

• To refresh digits or scale, simply reopen the *_INV chart after creation.
