Finding the trend

Quoting RiskFighter
{quote} I found it - it is a HalfTrend. With the amplitude = 1. Then the indicator is shifted in some way up and down to make a channel. I will have to investigate that. This is the Mika band wioth the HalfTrend in the middle. {image}
Great that you found it.
I think it is one of @Mladen's versions, with the parameters (1,1)

Exactly. And I am not writing on a thread just to keep it going. If there is no use for it, then so be it.

Right now I am studying this thread: Trading system using relative strength | Page 4 | Forex Factory

They seem to have great results. I have made 2 batches today. The first was a loss and the second is in minus after 2 hours. So might not be working in todays vacation environment.

I do know, that I shall play with the small wicks strategy and I have my own Halftrend strategy to develop too, but I can't help surfing this interesting FF site and then things happen. So I often have many projects going.

I works on the strength calculator where the gap, calculating the average gap of each current compared to other currencies.

But the result in that strategy only use if the gap is long or short. Not how much long or short. Noted by jusst a plus or minus. That is very simple. Maybe too simple. Seems that a lot can be done.

code snippets for the EUR currency.

if(EUR)
{
double EURUSD_Fast = ma(sEURUSD, Fast, MA_Method, Price, i);
double EURUSD_Slow = ma(sEURUSD, Slow, MA_Method, Price, i);
if(!EURUSD_Fast || !EURUSD_Slow)
break;
}

then

if(EUR)
{
arrEUR[i] = 0;
if(USD)
arrEUR[i] += EURUSD_Fast / EURUSD_Slow - 1;
if(GBP)
arrEUR[i] += (EURUSD_Fast / GBPUSD_Fast) /
(EURUSD_Slow/GBPUSD_Slow) - 1;
if(AUD)
arrEUR[i] += (EURUSD_Fast / AUDUSD_Fast) /
(EURUSD_Slow/AUDUSD_Slow) - 1;
if(NZD)
arrEUR[i] += (EURUSD_Fast / NZDUSD_Fast) /
(EURUSD_Slow/NZDUSD_Slow) - 1;
if(CHF)
arrEUR[i] += (EURUSD_Fast*USDCHF_Fast) /
(EURUSD_Slow*USDCHF_Slow) - 1;
if(CAD)
arrEUR[i] += (EURUSD_Fast*USDCAD_Fast) /
(EURUSD_Slow*USDCAD_Slow) - 1;
if(JPY)
arrEUR[i] += (EURUSD_Fast*USDJPY_Fast) /
(EURUSD_Slow*USDJPY_Slow) - 1;
}// end if EUR

If you don't use my indicators, you can't make any profits...

If I have not misunderstood, if you're interested in relative strength, you can find some of my strength indicators here:

Exiting. I recently made a robot for the Udine thread. But it was a left hand work and I did not get it to work properly. So I will study the work you have done with great interest.

From time to time you can write what you are trading (entry, TP, SL, result). This is the only way I can comment.

...My version of Octaves with your Indicators ...
Very nice!
I think that today you are the only one who has heard of Yotov.

Maybe you can use his original theory, analyze it in the thread, and comment on what can be used in common with the last indicators.

Some range left at the moment ?
There are SmallWick signals for D1 and the slope indicator is also short (on 23, 24, 25 July and 1, 2, 3 August).

One can wait for the entry on D1 and make the trades on H1 or M15.
I don't know how to use the octaves and quarters right now and I think the GC and SW ideas are sufficient. The GC Stochastic is also useful.

I laid the final hand on a project today. So in the weekend I will take up the Small Wicks project. Weekends are not ideal for coding because of servers are not functioning all the time, but I can start it up. So sometime tuesday or wednesday I guess I will have the first shot.

I used some hours on the SmallWick strategy, but did not get close to anything and in parallel I planned a personnal race trading. So I have to put the SmallWick aside for some time while I am concentrading on trading and only trading.

But don't I have robots to do that - yes partly, but I need to be present and decide what to trade where, when and how. And I need to secure that robots are still following the trend. Then the robots does the work. Take the trades, make the exits and stop trading for the day, when daily goal is reached.

I bought one more Prop account, so I will be trading 3 accounts. It will require my precense 100%.
