CS should be implemented as already described: by calling a function that returns 1, -1, or 0 (Long, Short, None).

Long signal for currency pair AB is when currency A is above 0 and pointing up, currency B is below 0 andf pointing down.

The opposite is for Short.

Other variations returns 0 (None).

Optional addition to the above is a…[Read more]

Strange opinion, since it’s my main trading strategy for years…

Call For Coders

It’s still too early to publish my latest CIX full version – there’s some code cleanup to do.

But if anybody would like to backtest our EA prototype based on CIX data, I’ve got something to offer: the Offline Version of CIX 4.3.

It works like this: I equipped the full version with a csv export interface, that dumps timestamps as…[Read more]

How about currency strength to identify ‘no trend’ intervals?

s.

Trend can be identified using Peak & Trough combined current & higher TF’s, such as in simplex histogram indicator.

@gg53,

I’m afraid that this won’t be enough. The circumstances kapybara & forexdj reported will prevent the EA from opening trades. The error occured in functions BuyStop and SellStop. So this particular check has to be made before an entry, but during trailing as well.

s.

simplex,

This check-up routine should be part of the Auto_StopLoss & Auto_Trailing Functions.

Hi kapybara,

Thanks for reporting! According to your output, the error should NOT occur on your GP account, where Stop level in points ( MODE_STOPLEVEL ) = 0. On MaxFx the case is clear with Stop level in points ( MODE_STOPLEVEL ) = 10

As a workaround, please try setting your parameter StopOrdersBuffer to a value greater than the account…[Read more]

Good idea.

Also add “Debug” (true/false) to user’s parameters to optionally activate/deactivate this function in OnInit().

@VlanFx: maybe it would be a good idea to cut the function from my above posted script and integrate it in the EA. Calling the function once during OnInit() might support debugging.

Hi @kapybara & @forexdj !

Thanks for reporting. Obviously the problem occurs when functions BuyStop() and SellStop() are called for an entry:

double stopLevel = MarketInfo(sym, MODE_STOPLEVEL) * point;
if (price - ask <= stopLevel) {
Print(__FUNCTION__ + " Price " + price2String(price) + " too close to current price " + price2String(ask) + " Min…[Read more]

Basically, you are describing Peak & Troughs, the ClearMethod, which is just the Price Action.
You started with the Fractal method. Been there, done that (to a perfection….)…
After that you’ll come to a conclusion that you need some more “assurance” or “support” from other methods, like Volume, or market “sentiment”…
Good luck, and many…[Read more]

Great Anti. Number 1 : the previous candles are bearish (2 red candles before the white engulfing bar). While at number 2:   all previous candles are white (all 3 white candles in a row, including the engulfing bar). But i can be wrong though …   Edit : i am agree that to discuss only high probability pattern, not to discuss many pa…[Read more]
