The indicator that Viktor Likhovidov describes is quite complex and is best coded in a standard programming language rather than NeuroShell’s Indicator Wizard. The NeuroShell Trader can directly call external code written in C, C++, Power Basic (also Visual Basic using one of our add-on packages), and Delphi. We went ahead and built the CandleWeight indicator in external code so that it runs easily in NeuroShell Trader.
In addition to coding the indicator CandleWeight described in the current article, we have also coded the indicator CandleCode. The CandleCode indicator is described in Viktor Likhovidov’s original “Coding Candlesticks” article found in the November 1999 issue of Stocks & Commodities. Users of NeuroShell Trader can go to the STOCKS & COMMODITIES section of the NeuroShell Trader free technical support website to download the CandleWeight and CandleCode indicators. If you want it, you can also download the source code in C.
After downloading the custom indicators, you can insert them into Charts (Figures 1 & 2), Predictions, and Trading Strategies using the Indicator Wizard and selecting the Custom Indicators category (Figure 3).
