About Ulcer Index (SQ Indicator Library)

This page covers the Ulcer Index module from the SQ Indicator Library — a modular MT4 indicator/scanner collection where each individual technical indicator is implemented as its own discrete file (following the naming pattern "sq" + indicator name), designed to plug into a larger multi-indicator dashboard. This modular library style is documented in comparable form by the ASQ Indicator Manager (mql.robotfx.org), which provides a dashboard showing indicator values organised by category (Moving Averages, Oscillators, ADX/ATR-type volatility tools), along with trend direction and trending/ranging market-regime detection.

What Ulcer Index measures: a volatility/risk measure focused specifically on the depth and duration of drawdowns, rather than general price variance.

Platform: MetaTrader 4
Library type: Modular scanner/dashboard component (SQ-prefixed indicator series)
Indicator: Ulcer Index
Comparable framework: ASQ Indicator Manager (mql.robotfx.org)
