Howdy. I too went down a similar route as Apprendista a while back. Admittedly, I will have no real answers, so I will just post some observations I have had. Everyone knows what the basic signal is, so I won’t belabor that point. But just a general ...

I agree. I always find these threads the most interesting because they typically make me think a bit. Although, I usually struggle to get the meaning... which I think could be to not having the necessary life experiences yet(this is age independant ...

Post 2/2 Continued... Up vs Down bars. Pretty simple. image Path Walked, for each data set. Below is an example of each data set, constructed into a candle. I.e., imagine those images above showing the candle stick charts(first image I posted), ...

First post about it, just includes some basic data. HOW THE BARS WERE CREATED There are probably much more sophisticated ways to create random price data, but I’ll offer a general explanation of the 3 types of data I generated. Each data type will ...

I will post some other data when I finish compiling it. But I generated some random data along side of Daily Data taken from the G/U. I created 3 sets of different random data, all generally based on the original set of data in some way. I just did ...

It looks very detailed! But I wouldn't need it now as I've already figured it out, and I don't really use MT4. I skimmed through some of it, and I do see it will calculate margin used upon entry. I see another screen where you would calculate ...

Maybe I am wrong, but I am almost certain that my platform(or any I have ever used) does not show me that information? It only shows me the margin used, while I am IN a position. This was not the information I was looking for. The information I was ...

Howdy. As mentioned in the original post, I am not particularly smart, so I don't quite understand. But, does the calculation you used above take into account a number of tics that price moves AGAINST your open position? I note you have a stop size ...

I don't use MT4 regularly, but that looks like a cool indicator. I was surprised on asking this question, how difficult it was to get people to understand the question I was asking, and how few people seemed to know how to do the calculation. I ...

I completely forgot I posted this thread here. I was using babypips for examples, but the examples there didn't help me figure it out. I was unable to really translate the babypips examples into the information I needed. But I did eventually figure ...

At the time I wrote this post, I knew how to calculate the margin required to OPEN a position, my question was how to calculate the margin used while a position is OPEN. I.e., I wanted to know how much margin you will use up, once a position is ...

I currently have Oanda credentials that will feed NinjaTrader. This is just a data feed, not associated with my live Oanda account. I have been using this for a while with no issues. My question, is are there any plans in the future to do what is ...

I agree. But its one of those things. I post various indicators around, and I know which ones will be highly downloaded and commented on. Its the ones that look cool, with flashy colors and squiggly lines. When I post handy-dandy position sizers for ...

Am I misreading the output of the indicator? I ran the stats in MT4 with your posted indicator, and outputted to the data to file. However, just looking at the basic columns... I'm not understanding the first several values? I am attaching an image ...

Yes, I will be developing everything for NT(NinjaTrader), as if I ever do have a tool to take trades so that I do not have to do it, I will likely do it through NT, as I can build whatever is necessary given enough time. I'm still going over the ...

Yes, apologies, NT is NinjaTrader. My situation is that I use NT for real time charting purposes. I also use it for building scripts, to EXPORT data from the chart, to play with in Excel. I do not actually place trades in NT, as you cannot trade FX ...

I might be a bit behind, as I do everything in NT. So most of my data exports will be produced from what I build in NT. I rarely use MT4 for many things. The indicators I don't mind posting, but they're all NT indies.
