Beginner — MetaTrader Indicator

The Beginner MetaTrader indicator is a simple tool that marks local tops and bottoms on currency charts with red and blue dots, but it should not be used for generating trading signals due to its repainting nature. It offers customizable input parameters for analyzing maximums and minimums over a specified period. Available for both MT4 and MT5, it is primarily useful for identifying support and resistance levels rather than for direct trading decisions.

Beginner
Beginner MetaTrader indicator — a very simple custom indicator that displays the local tops and bottoms
on the chart with the red and blue dots near them. It analyzes the maximum and minimums on the certain
period and then compares them to the range, in which the currency pair was trading, and if the top/bottom
is significant enough, it marks it with the dot. This indicator redraws itself and thus should not be used for
generating trading signals as the dots' positions may change. Both MT4 and MT5 versions of the indicator
are available.

Input parameters
AllBars (default = 0) — the amount of bars to use for calculations (0 — all bars). There is no reason to
change it.

Otstup (default = 30) — the number of percents that are cut from the range before comparing
maximums and minimums to determine their significance. The higher this number is the more frequent
are the dots.

Per (default = 9) — the period, on which the maximums and minimums are calculated at given moment.
The higher is the number the fewer dots are drawn.

It is very important to understand that this indicator cannot be used for actual trade signals. For example,
you cannot sell when the red dot appears or buy when the blue one is drawn — you will end up losing. This
indicator can only be used to quickly find the support and resistance levels if you trade some breakout
system or to develop your own indicators.

Warning!
Beginner is a repainting indicator — it draws past outputs based on future data. Do
not use it for trading signals!
