Wedges 4.0

Metatrader Indicator (MT4/MT5)

  • Overview

    Boost your trading precision with the versatile wedges tool

    The PZ Wedges Indicator is a technical analysis tool that helps traders identify potential continuation patterns in the market. These patterns, known as wedges, are formed when the price of an asset consolidates within a narrowing range, bounded by upward or downward converging trendlines.

    Wedges are considered to be continuation patterns because they often precede a breakout in the direction of the preceding trend. When a wedge pattern is identified, traders may look for a breakout in the direction of the trend to enter a trade.

    The PZ Wedges Indicator makes it easy for traders to identify these patterns, as well as confirm actionable breakouts. In addition to identifying wedges, the indicator also provides alerts of all kinds to help traders stay informed about potential trade opportunities.

    Some other features of the PZ Wedges Indicator include customizable pattern size, customizable colors and object sizes and clear breakouts. This indicator is easy to use and can be a valuable tool for traders looking to capitalize on potential continuation patterns in the market.

  • Input parameters

    When loading the expert to any chart, you will be presented with a set of options as input parameters. Don't despair if you think they are too many, because parameters are grouped into self-explanatory blocks.

    Indicator Settings
    The amplitude reprents the size of the patterns to be found. The max. history bars parameter is the amount of bars in the chart to look back. Less bars to evaluate means the indicator will load faster.
    Pattern Settings
    Choose the colors of the patterns.
    Breakouts
    The indicator implements breakouts to make trading easier. You can choose the size and color of the arrows.
    Alerts
    Enable or disable alerts at will.
  • ? FAQ
    Does the indicator repaint?
    The wedge will not repaint unless a new point arises and the slope of the triangle lines needs to be changed. Additionally, if a breakout happens and later the price retracts inside the triangle again, the arrow will repaint later when another breakout happens.
    Some triangles seem to be missing from the chart
    To find more wedges, load the indicator several times on the chart with different "Size" parameters: for example, load it four times with sizes 6, 12, 18 and 24. This will find wedges of different sizes simultaneously.
    I am seeing a wedge and the indicator has not recognized it!
    Kindly note that the indicator needs 5 price points to find a wedge. Maybe you are seeing a 4 price point pennant yet and projecting it in your mind, but 5 price points are needed to actually recognize one. Other issue can be the size of the wedge relative to the indicator size parameter: refer to the previous question for this issue.
    Does the indicator implement alerts?
    Yes, it does. It implements alerts of all inds.

    In order to build your expert advisor, you can read data from the indicator using the iCustom() function as exemplified below. The indicator has one extra buffer which only purpose is to store trading signals as constants: this is the only buffer you need to read from. Copy and paste the code below into your EA, and replace the indicator name of the iCustom() call with your own.

    //---- Read value from data buffer
    int start()
    {
    // Read value from data buffer
    double value  = iCustom(Symbol(), Period(), "PZ_Wedges_LICENSENUM", 0, 1);
    // Do something
    if(value == OP_BUY)      { /* Your code for bullish signal  */ }
    if(value == OP_SELL)     { /* Your code for bearish signal */ }
    if(value == EMPTY_VALUE) { /* Nothing to do */}
    // Exit
    return(0);
    }
