Hi, There is a great NT stantdard indicator called MAMA (adaptive MA) I would like to use it on MT4 can anyone get it to work for mt4?

[Poocher]

Mama is available for metatrader.

Google Mama metatrader.

mama for MT4 sucks....NT is great

mama for MT4 is not good for me....NT is great with only one nice smooth line!

This tread was highjacked by someone else posting a different request for mama, then it was forgotten.

Does anyone know if this Waddah_Atta_Explosion indicator has been converted to Ninjatrader. If not would one you fine coders help on this?

Thanks,

I recreated the Waddah_Atta_Explosion MT4 indicator for NT8.

Hopefully this helps some of you!

Hi There Kate,

I didn't know about this feature. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction! I've made my post.

Hi Jeremy,

Thanks for translation of Waddeh to NT8. The indicator plots OK, however, none of the alerts or messages seem to work. Have you checked the indicator if it functions and actually creates Buy/Sell and Exit signals?

Perhaps, the parameters for the indicator are for a certain Forex contract or there are some limitations.

Recommend to add some comments to the indicator explaining a little about the indicator and what is trying to do, its application, parameters, and limitations. Also, since this is an indicator and not a strategy, you may want to add Draw.ArrowUP/Down for Buy/Sell signals and Draw.Text for Exits.

Cheers!

I purely did a language & API translation from the MT4 indicator, and have yet to do much testing with it. I was hoping to get some feedback from some wonderful people such as yourself to fix any issues! I'll look into the alerts.

Thank you for the response!

Hi aligator,

I found the problem and have updated the source on my GitHub. You should now receive alerts. I'm a programmer and not much of a trader. So I can't help too much with the parameters. However they do match that of the original MT4 indicator, so if anyone knows of good documentation for that one, linking to it here would be useful.

If you find any other issues or have any suggestions I'm all ears.

Thanks Jeremy. I saw you posted the indicator in User Apps as a .dll file. I am sure that NinjaTrader NinjaTrader_Kane did not noticed that before publishing it, but their policy is that all custom add-ons and indicators must be open source and locked scripts are not allowed. Since the indicator is already in public I would recommend to re-publish the indicator as an open source.

I personally do not use this indicator but I recall perhaps 10 years ago it was hot in Forex community, although it is simply a momentum of the MACD indicator combined with BB band width for trendiness. Also, now that you are at it, as mentioned before you may want to include Buy/Sell/Exit markers on chart since they are more visually useful as an indicator than alerts.

Cheers!
