  2. Select Indicators List.

AIMSWaveMT5 MT5 Inputs — Core Settings, Purple Quality, and Visual Settings
**Inputs** (top) — history search, W4 thresholds, Purple quality, and on-chart label colours.

Core Settings

Key inputs at the top of the Inputs tab:

  • Completed bars searched for W3 AO peak — how far back wave logic scans.
  • Maximum history bars — how much data Wave reads; align with the 100–150 bars rule when counts look truncated.
  • Print wave 3/4/5 on price chart — on-chart Elliott labels.

Purple Quality And Visual Settings

Use Purple Quality and Visual Settings to control filter context and label appearance. Change one option at a time so you can see which setting affected the chart.

Levels, AO Tools, And Alerts

Scroll the Inputs tab for zero levels, AO bar-count tools, and W5 alert toggles.

AIMSWaveMT5 MT5 Inputs — Levels, AO Tools, and Alerts
**Inputs** (lower) — zero levels, AO bar-count tools, and W5 alert toggles.

Key inputs include:

  • Maximum AO histogram bars to colour — AO window display depth.
  • Alert when W5 is on completed bar 1 — W5 alert master switch.

When W5 completes on the completed bar, AIMS Wave can raise an on-screen alert (if enabled). Pair the popup with the Wave tab and Setup 1 Confluence — late-wave extension often maps to CAUTION or AVOID.
