Hey guys,

If anyone want to test couple of months manually in one or two days nice expert script to load (able to download market in history add all indicators, put positions with stops and TPs, review the stats at the end) --> https://www.fxblue.com/appstore/39/m...ding-simulator --> you need to open free account and nothing more. Work great all instruction are there and PDF also available for more details. As all softwares will take some time to set up but great for practice just like real thing on fast forward =))))

About this Cycle indicator it's the same as ZigZag arrows, it will repaint itself, better to learn candle patterns and add them to your tool box in my opinion I'm working on that right now, and that only comes with practice. Looks like mrdfx already did a great work on indicators here (for me only added TDI and very helps for exits). I played with earlier entries and if you read all this post you will see, earlier you enter more risk you will face and that's proven. Backtest your thing in with help of FXblue simulator and all answers will be there. There is no short cuts here guys, trading is very-very hard thing and will take a lot of time to master, however I think nothing is impossible with hard work and dedication =)

EURAUD, I got a buy signal, and EA took the trade. However I feel that this was potentially an invalid setup, please correct me if I'm wrong. Trade opened for BUY at 16:00:00hrs. The small red arrow indicates the bar where the trade opened. 1. MBFX is above the above (not below as per the rules) the 30% oversold zone. 2. Candle closed below the M15, (not above as per the rules) Have I missed something here? {image}
Update on EURAUD..
This was the original entry:

As you can see the zigzag AND MBFX has repainted. It is still showing a buy signal, but the original entry, appears to have been a 'false' signal per se. I think it would be good if we can brainstorm how to potentially mitigate the effects of these repaints. I was stopped out by this, -94 pips!

I continue to see many great opportunities lost because of the short arrow look back. In the attached charts I marked with yellow ovals several entries that were never issued by the system because of the 10 bar look back.

I am running the system with the trend filter ON and a 100 bar arrow look back and it is doing very well.

The trend filter avoids many losers while still giving me sufficient trades to work with.

The 100 bar look back also helps considerably by issuing additional winning trades.

I am opening the trades manually when new alerts are issued at close of the H4 bars.

I am exiting at 1 ATR pips from entry (Average True Range). This sets the TP in line with each pairīs volatility. ATR is the Daily range average of the last 14 days.

Examples of current ATRs: EURUSD = 76, GBPJPY = 134, AUDUSD =56.

Hmm.. I've tried similar. SMA200 = true.
candles to look back (zigzag AND MBFX) = 50
My results were significantly poorer.

The original rules with R:R have been giving great results, and that is just since the 1st, and trading has been shoddy at best during this period.

Longer look back only on arrow. Not on MBFX which is based on Fast Stochastic and does not need a longer look back than 10.

I agree that the results are impressive for the original rules so far this month. Time will tell the story. You need 6 months of testing at least to reach definite conclusions.

Good point. I'll amend, and test with only 10 for mbfx, and increase zigzag to 100.
