Bar count:

From Skype Q.: Same High (Low) consequent bars are counted as one bar.

Great, thanks a lot G

OK, could you please give example on CCI or MA ? Thanks

Simple Average formula is: Sum(1…n)/n

Example:

(1+2+3+4+5)/5 = 3

Now we want to know what future number will cause this “uptrend” to go flat or move down.

This mean that:

(1+2+3+4+5+x)/6 <= 3

This one is easy to solve…

What a profound idea…

You can’t predict future price.

But you can predict at what future price the MA (just an example) will start to turn or will go flat.

Same goes to RSI, Stochastic, CCI, StdDeviation, etc.

this is interesting G. Could you please give example how to predict future (reverse) price based on MA? Thanks in advance G.

Ah now I think I got it. I calculate the “reversed” MA and when my algo gives me the signal but the price needs to fall to much on the next bar for the MA to change direction I don’t give a signal. Or the other way around. The price doesn’t need to fall much for the market to change the direction of the MA so we probably don’t h…

The MA was just an example, but you can “predict” many other indies behaviour if you “reverse” their function.

Leave the Database as is…

This should be done in real-time, by the algo, otherwise it will be too late and on the bar CLOSE, while doing it in real-time it can be done immediatly.

A/M = Above Mentioned…

I didn’t say anything about changing the database, nor about “reversing” your algo.

Just add another parameter to your algo that influence your prediction based on direction change.

G.

Leave the DB alone…. {-;

What if you add to your algo a Direction-Change “prediction”, based on the A/M example?

You already know at what price the direction is going to change – add this to the probabilities.

G.

Looks good and on the correct path !

Such progress deserves one “extra” tip:

Have you thought about “reversing” the function?

Example:

Let’s say that you have a function that draws MA according to PA, and the current direction of that MA is UP.

Can you “reverse” that function and tell at what FUTURE price that MA will start to point…[Read more]

Maybe it’s worth looking at it again? What do you expect from this question? Why do you need someone else to tell you what to do?

I think I explained that in my post:  I was under the impression that this indicator/strategy had fallin apart, but @gg53 latest comment says otherwise.  So I’m not asking someone to “tell me what to do”…[Read more]
