Trinh Dat - CSS ArrowWrite

Hello Trinh, 

Thanks so much for all your great help and hard work so far!

We are now going to modify the same basic code that you have already successfully built.

The point of the last pop up box modification was to alert me to arrow changes personally, by virtue of a manual pop up box or email, so I can figure out if CSS has any real market advantage in it. The purpose of this next modification will be to feed similar arrow state information to different .txt files on the same physical computer, and to do so at frequent time intervals, in order that this same arrow state information may be made available for mechanical trading decision makers in an efficient and accurate manner.

Therefore, instead of SlopeValues_v1.2, I'd love it if you could name this next version of our work:

SlopeWrite_v1

as the purpose will be to write a continual stream of highly specific arrow state information to .txt files

Before the information related to each of the 28 pairs is discussed, it is important to understand first the idea of the refresh rate. The refresh rate will be expressed in a number of seconds X, to be defaulted to 60. Meaning here that the specific arrow state information should be written to these .txt files every 60seconds or 1M

Input Section of CSS Indicator:

*****REFRESH RATE*****

Refresh: 60

Now, all that remains is to discuss what exact arrow state information is to be written to the .txt files every 60 seconds. Basically, all of the functionality regarding Emails or PopUps from the last version is gone. Instead, the CSS indicator, in this version, is being set up to write just UP arrow information codes, or else just DOWN arrow information codes to these different .txt files.

If , on any particular asset, the write UP arrow information is selected, then, the the indicator has to write one of three (two letter) codes to a .txt file at 60second intervals:

SU (The currency arrow in question is pointing Straight Up)

UR (The currency arrow in question is pointing to the Upper Right)

OT (The currency arrow in question is pointing in some OTher direction, not SU or UR)

If, for any particular asset, the DOWN arrow information is selected, then, the indicator has, once again, to write one of three codes, every 60 seconds, to a .txt file. In the event the DOWN information is selected, then the codes are:

SD (The currency arrow in question is pointing Straight Down)

LR (The currency arrow in question is pointing to the Lower Right)

OT (The currency arrow in question is pointing in some OTher direction, not SD or LR)

When these codes are written to the .txt files, they must be written in such a way that they will appear as a list of two letters seperated by an invisible return, like this

DOWN ARROW .txt FILE:

SD

SD

SD

SD

LR

LR

OT

And so on.... OK?

UP ARROW .txt FILE Example:

SU

SU

SU

UR

UR

UR

OT 

OT

OT

So, for each of the 28 currency pairs, I'd like to put in the following functionality:

Also, please be sure to put in the numbers 01-28 with a ) in front of the currency pair in question in the input section of the indicator, as it helps me keep things straight and orderly. Each currency pair will have a little section of options and inputs.

01) AUDCAD

AUDCAD UP .txt file: TRUE or FALSE 

(this option turns ON or OFF the AUDCAD UP arrow write functions)

AUDCAD UP .txt file Name: 1_AUDCAD 

(This would result in the file "1_AUDCAD.txt" being created first and then written to, or else, if it already exists, it would just be written to every 60s)

AUDCAD UP Location 1: C:\Users\hardware314\AppData\Roaming\MetaQuotes\Terminal\C1E11F8C7E4C6DF2634E6D772269DBCD\MQL4\Files 

AUDCAD UP Location 2:

C:\Users\hardware314\AppData\Roaming\MetaQuotes\Terminal\C1E11F8C7E4C6DF2634E6D772269DBCD\MQL4\Files 

Remember, AUDCAD UP .txt being set to TRUE means these two specific text files, with the same name, but in different locations, must get a SU, a UR, or an OT written to them every 60 seconds by default. Next, let's take a look at the reverse situation...

AUDCAD DOWN .txt file: TRUE or FALSE

AUDCAD DOWN .txt file Name: 1_AUDCAD

This means that a file named 1_AUDCAD.txt file will be written that contains only a stream of DOWN arrow information.

Remember, AUDCAD DOWN .txt being set to TRUE means these two specific text files, with the same name, but in different locations, must get a SD, a LR, or an OT written to them every 60 seconds by default. 

AUDCAD DOWN Location 1: C:\Users\hardware314\AppData\Roaming\MetaQuotes\Terminal\C1E11F8C7E4C6DF2634E6D772269DBCD\MQL4\Files 

AUDCAD DOWN Location 2:

C:\Users\hardware314\AppData\Roaming\MetaQuotes\Terminal\C1E11F8C7E4C6DF2634E6D772269DBCD\MQL4\Files 

Live Long and Prosper,
