For those still waiting for alerts on the Modified TTM Squeeze, I apologize for the delay!
Message and email alerts have been added, and the indicator update was uploaded on September 23rd.. we're just waiting for the update pass through the marketplace review process!
Great news! The Modified TTM Squeeze update with message and email alerts can now be downloaded!
Setting up MT4 email:
To use email alerts (with any indicator), you must set up email information in your MT4 terminal (MT4 > Options > Email). Please be aware that MT4 does not seem to support SSL SMTP servers, so gmail's SMTP server may not work (it did not for us). Instead, we opened a free account at smtp2go (no affiliation) which advertise themselves as an SMTP server for metatrader. This has worked well for us so far. If you know of a better service however, please post it here!
Thanks again to those who have given feedback on the Modified TTM Squeeze indicator, we always appreciate any suggestions.
Depending on your trading strategy, different calculation lengths might suit you better. The default is BB length=20 and KC length=20, but we have found that BB length = 34 and KC length = 34 also works well for us, give it a try in input parameters!
There are some problems changing colors and thickness.
1 - You cant save as .set
2 - changing to traditional TTM it will loose color and thickness setting, and you have to reload it.
it is annoying as this create extra work everytime you load on new chart
Hi Shamsul, happy new year! I apologize for my delay in response, we are now back from the holidays.
Thank you very much for your feedback, we will change this and upload a new version to the marketplace. I will post another message here once the new version is uploaded. Please let us know if you have any other suggestions!

Hi Shamsul,
We have updated the indicator according to your suggestions, and uploaded this new version to the marketplace. This should be publicly downloadable this week (as you know, there is a short delay while the indicator goes through 3rd party review from the MQL5 market).
In V1.2, as you requested colors are saved when changing between 1) timeframes, 2) modified/traditional TTM, and 3) currency pairs.
Thank you again for your feedback! Given that we have completely addressed the problem you mentioned in your review, I do hope that you change your 1 star rating!
Hello Jay, I would like to acquire your indicator, but would you please explain me where you could enter in this chart? Thanks in advance for your answer.

Hi Vidis,
Thank you for your interest! Please see the attached file. The following is opinion and not trading advice. I have marked all potential trades on the chart you sent, using only the strategy that we have described above (enter in the direction of the trade after a squeeze of at least 3 bars, exit on fading trend or re-entering squeeze). This could likely be refined even further by combining with other metrics such as Choppiness Index.
As you can see, it looks like the indicator would have signalled 9 trades total, 7 with profit/loss, 2 neutral (couldn't tell if there was a profit or loss from your chart). Accuracy would have been ~71.4% correct, with approximately 737.5 points total profit.
Ambrogio Corvinus: Can you please include push notification?
Hi Ambrogio,
Thank you for your message! Based on previous feedback we have included both push email notifications, as well as MT4 terminal messages (which will push to the MetaTrader 4 mobile app if you are signed in to the same account on the terminal and mobile app). When I use this indicator I personally prefer email alerts, but others prefer messages via MetaTrader 4 app.

Hi Hanuma,
Please PM me with a screenshot of the indicator settings you're using, happy to help get it working.
Arrows on the main chart and make a sound!
Hi Igor, that's a great idea, we will look in to that for the next version.
Best,
