If you're looking to enhance your trading game, the GreedyPigAnalyzer is a must-have for your MetaTrader 4 setup. This handy tool allows you to take screenshots of your charts at various intervals, perfect for analyzing indicator combinations, price action, and multi-timeframe strategies.

It's a fantastic option for backtesting, enabling you to research indicators and timing across different timeframes. Here's how it works:

  1. When you drop it onto a chart, it automatically reads the currency pair and creates a dedicated folder to store all your screenshots in C:\Program Files(x86)\MetaTrader4\experts\files\pair\pic.gif (for instance, \EURUSD\20130125_215859_EURUSD_60.gif).
  2. It detects the timeframe and sets the appropriate interval for taking pictures (for example, on an M15 chart, it captures an image every hour).

Input Parameters:

  • Select your Broker or Local PC time.
  • Choose the color for your watermark.
  • Specify the font size for the watermark.
  • Decide which corner to display the watermark.

Current Default Settings:

  • PERIOD_M1: Takes a pic every 15 minutes.
  • PERIOD_M5: Takes a pic every 30 minutes.
  • PERIOD_M15: Takes a pic every hour.
  • PERIOD_M30: Takes a pic every hour.
  • PERIOD_H1: Takes a pic every 4 hours.
  • PERIOD_H4: Takes a pic daily.
  • PERIOD_D1: Takes a pic weekly.
  • PERIOD_W1: Takes a pic monthly.
  • PERIOD_MN1: Takes a pic monthly.

Recommendations:

  • If you’re keen on understanding how your indicators or their combinations behave in different market conditions.
  • For mastering multi-timeframe analysis, set up 3-5 timeframes and analyze the charts for recurring patterns and behaviors.
  • Study how price and your indicators perform on M5, M15, H1, and H4 during trend reversals or continuations.
  • Learn by observing price cycles to gain a deeper understanding of market movements.

Happy trading!

Cheers,

The Greedy Pig
