Multi Symbol Market Scanner Panel shows up to 30 symbols in one table on your MT4 chart: trend direction, RSI, volatility, today's range, distance from yesterday's high / low and a simple swing structure, on M15, H1, H4 and D1. It is a display tool for checking many symbols at once without opening many charts. It gives no buy / sell signals and never places orders.
WHAT THE TABLE SHOWS
- Rows: the symbols in your Market Watch (the first 30), or your own comma-separated list (up to 30). For a list, the broker's prefix / suffix is detected automatically (or set by hand). A name that cannot be found is shown as "(n/a)".
- Trend (per timeframe): Up = EMA(50) above EMA(200) and the EMA(50) slope over the last 5 bars is more than +0.1 x ATR(14). Down = the opposite. Anything else = Flat.
- RSI(14) (per timeframe): Wilder's method. 70 or more and 30 or less are colored.
- ATR% (per timeframe): ATR(14) as a percentage of the close, to compare volatility between symbols with different prices.
- Range%* (one column): today's daily high-low range as a percentage of the average range of the last 20 closed daily bars.
- Prev H/L* (one column): distance from yesterday's high (H) or low (L) in daily ATR(14). Above yesterday's high or below yesterday's low, the side that was crossed is shown; inside the range, the nearer side.
- Structure H1 / H4: the direction in which the most recent swing high / low (fractal, 3 bars on each side, within the last 300 bars) was broken by a close. This is a simple, two-column version of Dow-style structure. It is close in idea to Dow Structure Multi Timeframe by the same author, but simpler and not the same calculation, so the two can show different results. If you need a detailed structure view, that product is the one built for it.
- Trend, RSI and ATR% can be shown for any of M15 / H1 / H4 / D1 (each timeframe can be turned on or off, and each column type too). Up to 16 columns.
HOW IT UPDATES
- All columns use closed bars, except the two columns marked * (Range% and Prev H/L), which use the current price and refresh every 2 seconds (input).
- A closed-bar value changes only when a new bar of that symbol and timeframe closes, or when more history arrives.
- The first time a symbol is used, MT4 may need about 30 to 40 seconds to load its history. Meanwhile the title bar shows "Loading x/y" or "no data" and the cells show "..." or "-". The values are filled in automatically when the history arrives. Symbols with different trading hours (for example indices) are calculated after a 30-second wait.
- While a symbol has fewer bars than needed (1200 for trend, 300 for RSI and structure), its values are shown faded with "~" as provisional, and recalculated automatically when the history arrives.
- On MT4 the table is redrawn on screen with the next tick of the chart symbol or when you click / scroll the chart. When the market is closed (no ticks), click the chart to see the latest table.
- The table shows current values only. It does not draw anything on past bars.
PANEL
- Click a column header to sort (high to low, low to high, original order). Click a symbol name to switch the chart to that symbol (the timeframe stays).
- Collapse button, panel corner and offset, three sizes, colors chosen automatically from the chart background (or light / dark), language English or Japanese chosen automatically from the terminal language (or by hand).
- Several copies can run on one chart; copies in the same corner are stacked vertically. Two 30-row tables do not fit one corner on most screens, so put the second one in another corner.
- Green / red show the plus / minus direction of a value (up / down, high / low). They are not buy / sell colors.
ALERTS (off by default)
- When the chosen column (trend, RSI zone or structure) of a chosen timeframe changes for any symbol in the table. Checked on closed bars only; reloading history does not trigger alerts. Pop-up, sound, push notification and / or e-mail.
- M15 trend changes about 5 times a day per symbol on average, so with many symbols H1 or higher is easier to follow.
MT4 SPECIFIC POINTS (please read)
- "Draw the panel above the price chart" (on by default): MT4 draws candles over the panel when "Chart on foreground" is on. While the indicator is attached, this input turns "Chart on foreground" off, and turns it back on when the last copy is removed from the chart. If the terminal is closed while the indicator is attached, it may not be turned back on. If needed, turn it on again by hand: chart Properties (F8) > Common > Chart on foreground.
- List mode: symbols that are not in the Market Watch are added so that their data can be received. MT4 does not allow an indicator to remove symbols from the Market Watch, so they stay there after the indicator is removed. Hide them by hand if you do not need them (right-click in the Market Watch > Hide).
- Temporary global variables whose names start with "MSCa_", "MSCs_" or "MSCf_" are used by this indicator. They stay until the terminal is closed (they are not saved). Please do not use these names yourself.
- These three points are how MT4 works and are covered by support as explanations; they are not treated as bugs.
IMPORTANT
- Display only. Not a buy / sell signal, not a ranking of symbols to trade, and not a probability. It does not promise any profit, and how the table looked in the past does not guarantee future results. Trade decisions are your own responsibility.
- The calculations follow the standard EMA, RSI and ATR. During development the values were compared with an independent recalculation.
- Day boundaries (today, yesterday) follow the broker's server time, so values can differ between brokers.
- Memory: the terminal keeps the history of every symbol and timeframe in the table, so memory use grows with the number of symbols. Lowering "Max bars in chart" in the terminal options reduces it.
- With 30 rows on a wide screen, drawing the table takes a noticeable moment on MT4. If the chart feels slow, use fewer rows or columns.
- The MT4 Strategy Tester does not support multi-symbol testing. The table is calculated only in visual mode there, and its values are for checking the display only.
- Push notifications and e-mail need the terminal's notification / e-mail settings.
OTHER
- MetaTrader 4 only (the MT5 version is a separate product). Works on any chart; scans forex, metals, indices and other symbols your broker provides.
