I could not replicate this problem, which broker did you use? Make sure you have the latest Volceq version.

Re. lowpass vs. bandpass filter:
I generally agree that a lowpass or some similar approach should act as a primary filter.
Guided by earlier Ehlers’ papers, I tried for some time (long ago) to measure current price frequency, and then tune a bandpass accordingly. As you might have guessed from my above post, this approach was not successful…[Read more]

Hi flx,
I’ve been off for some time, so I did not notice your new thread until now. Interesting!
From what you’re writing, you appear to have read most of Ehlers’ papers and / or books, and certainly a bit more.
I agree that it is not necessary to reproduce (smoothed) prices exactly in order to trade successfully, all it takes is timeliness…[Read more]

Ok, when looking at tick data, we do not look at any timeframe, just incoming prices. OHLC, or candlesticks, can only be constructed when we start to structure tick data according to rules we define. Most obvious rule is simple timing, i.e. a uniform timeframe.
Most traders choose one or more timeframes for their trading that are somehow…[Read more]

First of all, I do not think that there’s such a thing like a ‘stupid’ question. If someone does not know a certain fact, or does not understand every detail of somebody else’s statement, or just is a newbie in a certain field, or … (fill in whatever makes sense!), he or she should feel free to post a question hoping the community can help out!…[Read more]

Maybe the Natural MA was covered in Video #2 of the seminar series – the missing one.
There are functional MQL prototypes you can analyze in the links I provided above.
I do not understand the term ‘argmax i (NMM)’. Basically, the fast NMA is an NMA that dynamically truncates its own weighted lookback interval, thus acting faster than Standard…[Read more]

Yep, just skip the esoterics! Later on in Ch. 12 some analogies between physical and trading aspects, which I usually look at a bit skeptically, are becoming interesting from a very remote point of view.
What instantly intrigued me was Jim’s imperative attempt to remove as much arbitrariness as possible from any indicator calculation. Ever…[Read more]

Yep, my first impression was very similar, several weeks ago.

Hi Guys!
I wonder whether anybody got in touch with Jim Sloman’s Ocean Theory. You’ll find a pdf here.
In the pdf, there is no copyright notice, so I’m not sure about its status. Jim passed away a few years ago, and his original website etc. are gone. His latest trading software suite (5000 USD) is not available anymore.
There’s a youtube…[Read more]

Thanks and yes, this is how it works using iCustom …
But as G. wrote he’s seeking a solution without iCustom.

Ok. In this early CIX implementation, it’s not that easy.
First step might be to integrate functions
setAllCurrencyIndexBuffers
setAllRawValueBuffersResetting OR setAllRawValueBuffersContinuous (depends on what you prefer)
setAllSmoothedBuffersin one single function, which can then be called multiple times to calculate the 1st…[Read more]

Long time no see – welcome back!

From earlier discussions I remember that you’re a real fan of iCustom() calls. So this would be the obvious and simple solution to try. I’m sure I don’t have to explain to you how this works.
If iCustom is not preferred this time, you might start looking at function OnCalculate(), lines 389 – 406.…[Read more]

Hi Lowphat!
Did you provide proper ‘symbol suffix’ input parameter? Looks like your account requires a ‘pro’ here.

Hi Thomas,
Both is possible.
If you would be able to create a ‘how to’ advice for setting up a working dll and integrating it into an mq4 project, I’d be very interested! From my personal point of view, an open source C compiler and open source development environment would be preferrable.
Best, s.
