Welcome back, fellow traders! Today, we're diving into the DSSBressertSignAlert, a semaphore signal indicator specifically designed for MetaTrader 5. This nifty tool is built on the DSSBressert algorithm and comes with some exciting features, including alerts, email notifications, and push notifications straight to your mobile device.
Let’s break down the recent updates that have been made to enhance its functionality:
Key Updates to the Indicator
- New Input Parameters:
input uint NumberofBar=1; // Bar number for the signal input bool SoundON=true; // Enable alerts input uint NumberofAlerts=2; // Number of alerts input bool EMailON=false; // Enable mailing the signal input bool PushON=false; // Enable sending the signal to mobile devices
- New Functions Added: Three new functions have been incorporated:
BuySignal(),SellSignal(), andGetStringTimeframe()for better signal handling. - Integration into OnCalculate: Calls to
BuySignal()andSellSignal()have been added after the indicator calculation cycles to ensure timely alerts.
As you set up the indicator, remember that BuyBuffer and SellBuffer are your go-to names for storing buy and sell signals. Make sure to handle empty values correctly, as either zeros or EMPTY_VALUE should be set.
Also, the indicator utilizes classes from the SmoothAlgorithms.mqh library. You’ll need to copy this to your <terminal_data_folder>\MQL5\Include directory. If you want more information on how to effectively use these classes, check out the detailed article on "Averaging Price Series for Intermediate Calculations Without Using Additional Buffers".
