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.
Let me cite from Chapter 8, ‘The Zen Moment’:
This is why, in my opinion, it is advantageous to develop at least partially your own approach to markets. The Advanced Ocean Software that is part of the Ocean Master program is designed to give you a set of tools with which to develop…

if dissimilarity is just divergence couldn’t it be a similar concept to mean reversion?
also the lowest TF could potentially always be the blueprint as its the origin of everything after it

@simplex good call. you may can just change near line 438
if (useLowphatAlterateDrawMethod)
{
double b1,b2;
if (displayAUD){bAUD[shift]=phatCalcAUD[shift+1]-phatCalcAUD[shift+2];//change these lines to this?simplex started the topic Jim Sloman's Ocean Theory in the forum Trading Systems Discussion 9 years, 2 months 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.

i did something like this but i dont know if it works with the original. ill attach my rough hack cname = “CIX_v_2_2_post-PHaT-Mod-all”
ExtMapBuffer1=iCustom(NULL, TimeFrame, cname,0,i+1 )-iCustom(NULL, TimeFrame, cname,0,i+2 );

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]

I’m trying to evaluate your code, but can’t find an easy way to find a solution (NOT iCustom…).
Can I have a simple (coded) answer, or have to re-read the code?
Thanx,
G.
simplex replied to the topic Fundamental Currency Strength in the forum Trading Systems Discussion 9 years, 2 months ago
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]

Simplex:
Using CIX_v_2_2_post.mq4:
How can I get previous value of a currency?
I mean something like EUR[2] – EUR[1]?
