I know some of you have been SEEING PATTERNS with the 3 Level ZZ indicator like 2-2, 3-1-1, etc..

I modified the indicator to show the date, time and level as comments. You can display up to 26 occurrences via inputs.

FREE MT4 version 3_Level_ZZ_Semafor_TRO_MODIFIED_VERSION, including SOURCE CODE, attached.


PLEASE DO NOT POST THIS CODE ON OTHER FORUMS.

TRO,

Is there any way you can code your 3_ZZ Semas so when I resize them lower (by going to the edit window > colors > then lowering the width) they STAY resized whenever I change time frames, pairs, etc... that'd be a real help :). I can tell which is which by looking at the colors, I don't need such a huge "3" hovering over my candles. After changing the sizes, the alterations do not stay. Maybe I'm doing something wrong... who knows. Example:

I added inputs to control the size of the semafors.

Two semaphores in one single bar??

Hello TRO,

I downloaded your last modification. And I've found something odd in the latest bar:



Cheers

TRO, re-sizing the semas does not seem to move them from hiding the candle wicks. Is there any setting in the source that will move the semas below or above the wicks. Thanks, a great indicator....

Why not just use "dynamic Semafors"?

You can make them any size you want.
They do not cover the wicks.
You can tell exactly at what level they first popped up to monitor your breakout trades.
You can even add levels that coincide with different time frames than the one you are trading.
Template attached.
Change the line thickness to make them bigger or smaller.
0 is in first pic.
1 is in second pic.
2 would be the same size as the 3LZZ #3.

Wingding settings:
140=1
141=2
142=3 ect.

Not easily because the price values in the buffers are used in the calculations, as well as, semafor placement on the chart.

Good post prochargedmopar.
Even if people go back to the Semafors at least they will get to see how they work.
