Thank you so much Dana! Thank means a great deal to me.
Though I won't be able to trade and follow my charts I will be checking in on the thread and following all of you--it's become a way of life for me now, one that I much value.

Take care Mark and safe journey - give your mum a hug from all of us mate. Just been doing the same with father-in-law over Christmas, and it's not easy - my thoughts are with you and your family.

Cheers,
Andy

Hello Traders

Sorry I have been quiet recently, been very busy trading (saving up for a new house) and family!

Here is my trade from today, a very quick EJ sell:

2hr:

I sold the touch of 2hr ROMAR. A very straightforward trade I believe.

Here is the 1hr Chart:

You could also have taken a long trade as indicated, which I missed, which was also on the Daily PSAR/FIBO or been short from earlier.

Here is the result:

I hope that helps, sometimes you can take a trade mid-candle and this was certainly an occasion when you could.

Does anyone know why an offline chart created by the period converter isn't updating along with the original chart?

Actually, sometimes it does but it stops after a while.

Post your H2 chart and lets see what's going on.

Sorry, it's too late. I already refreshed the chart so it's now up to date for now.

I'll post the chart next time.

For some reason, the Period_Converter_Opt script doesn't update at all even I was able to pull up the offline chart, so I had to resort to using a different period converter (PeriodConverter). Even it doesn't update very well either. I mean, it's updating right now but it will stop soon.

By the way, I use Oanda as my demo broker. I'm not sure if that's the problem.

I tell you what trader -- there is nothing wrong with the Period_Converter_Opt provided it is used for this system and the system is installed exactly as instructed.

I'm sure there is nothing wrong with it. It's probably some tiny detail I might've overlooked that is causing this problem. Not sure what it is just yet.

Thanks guys-mates! I appreciate it! That "old Gal" is really something. Over the course of her life she has won and received numerous awards and recognitions for her accomplishments as both a self-made business woman and for her philanthropic activities--and through it all, every second, has been the very best mom anyone could ever hope for. Blessedly, she yet has her wits about her. We should all be so lucky.

I've been following your instructions you provided in the Word document that came with this indicator.

The problem I'm having is that the indicator will not open when I drag and drop it on the H1 chart. I'm just befuddled by this.

EDIT: I just want to add that all other indicators and templates for the Paradox system work just fine.

I have the OANDA - MetaTrader Version 4.00 Build 1090. Think the build has anything to do with this issue?

Trader - there is nothing about dragging and dropping that indicators on any chart.

Here's a snippet from the Word document containing instructions on how to add the Period Converter.

Quote
1. Open your H1 “Paradox_H1 chart”.
2. Attach to this Paradox_H1 chart 'Period_Converter_Opt ' from 'Custom Indicator' folder.

How does one attach "Period Converter" to the Paradox H1 chart?

There are two ways to do this: 1) After ensuring the Paradox H1 chart is active, right-click on the Period_Converter_Opt indicator in the Navigation window and then click on "Attach to a chart", or 2) left-click and hold on the indicator in the Navigation window, drag it over to the chart and let go. Normally, you would see a pop-up window after that but nothing happened when I tried both methods.

I already checked the Indicators List for the H1 chart template but I don't see this indicator listed so it means I have to add it to the template. Problem is, of course, this issue is preventing me from doing so.

I have three different demo accounts with different brokers. I tried this on all of them and they showed the same result.

Does anyone here have ideas what I missed?

EDIT: I forgot to go to Insert - Indicators - Custom - Period_Converter_OPT. Nothing still happened.

Hello Trader

You need to get rid of Oanda too and use forex dot com and be the same as everybody else.

I have real accounts with Oanda, so I need to practice this system using Oanda's price feed so that there'll be a smooth transition from trading demo to real.

But if I am to post my trading plan in here, I will use a demo account with forex.com.

That makes zero sense, trader.

It doesn't matter where you execute the trades, for charting purposes we all use forex dot com. What Oanda's price feed is like is totally irrelevant. I use Pepperstone to execute my trades, but I use forex dot com for my charts, like everyone else. What is so hard about that for you which makes you want to complicate things?

Cheers

Are you saying that any other broker's data feed makes this system less effective?

If not, the only reason I could think of is that all of us use charts from the same broker to compare our trading plans and results, correct? I think that's a beneficial thing to do.

Yes we all use this system the way Dove intended it to be used. Like Shinny already said, use forex.com to chart and then Oanda on your phone or switch accounts on your computer to execute.

Pretty simple, I'm sure majority of all people here do just that.
