Simple Daily Trend Reversal Trading System? Yes, I have been following that and trialing the EA. Mixed results, but the EA seems to be taking its own path.

How do you feel about the current EA? I'd be interested in your views and if you think an EAX PIN could give us something different. PM me if you want.

Hi. A few questions. It would be useful to have more details on these 2 accounts. E.g. Broker, account type, spreads, is there any symbol suffix, etc.

I also notice that you have max trades set to 10, and you have something else on PIN 2?. Please remember that the 10 BAR signal is only valid at London Open. It is not a reliable later in the day. Preferably, set EAX to only open 1 trade per pair so you don't get re-entries.

Hi jagzuk

Firstly I want to say thank you for your hard work in coding the 10 Bar strategy PIN. I certainly appreciate your time and skill as I believe this strategy is perfect for an automated system. BTW I have quite a few more systems that look quite profitable that we could perhaps work on in the future??

I reviewed #post 79

I believe the logic is not quite right

Firstly, bullish bars are only counted from close to close, not from open to close. I believe this gives a true perspective rather than an artificial one. Because often the open price is different from the close of the previous candle (especially at the beginning of the day). So candle 1 should be calculated from the close of trading day (EST 5pm) to the close of candle 1 (EST 6pm). And then so on until close of the 10th candle.

Secondly, when calculating the expected number, there are 3 formulas:

Formula 1
For EURGBP, EURAUD, EURNZD, GBPAUD, GBPNZD, AUDNZD the formula is x + 5 - y = n (x=first currency, y=second currency, n=expected number)
example:
EURUSD 6
AUDUSD 7
6 + 5 - 7 = 4
EURAUD expected number = 4

Formula 2
For EURJPY, EURCAD, GBPJPY, GBPCAD, AUDJPY, NZDJPY, AUDCAD, NZDCAD the formula is x - 5 + y = n (x=first currency, y=second currency, n=expected number)
example:
NZDUSD 7
USDCAD 6
7 - 5 + 6 = 8
NZDCAD expected number = 8

Formula 3
For CADJPY the formula is (x - 10)*-1 - 5 + y = n
example:
USDCAD 4
USDJPY 7
(4 - 10)*-1 - 5 + 7 = 8 i.e (4 minus 10 = -6, -6 times -1 = 6, 6 - 5 + 7 = 8)
CADJPY expected number = 8

I have triple checked these formulas and they work correctly!

The logic is the first currency of the pair starts the equation. The second currency in the pair alters the equation either up or down based on whether it has more than 5 bullish bars or less than 5 bullish bars.

If the second currency pair has more than 5 bullish bars it will decrease the number (because it means the second currency is stronger)
If the second currency pair has less than 5 bullish bars it will increase the number (because it means the second currency is weaker)

The formula takes care of the USDCAD and USDJPY pairs because it inverts the number e.g if USDCAD or USDJPY had 6 bullish bars that means that CAD or JPY ACTUALLY only had 4 bullish bars (because as you know CAD and JPY are the second currency in the pair)

If you can check you formulas against mine, I think you will find they give a different result??

Thanks again for you hard work

Z

Hi Z

Once again, thank you for sharing your strategy. I hope I speak for many people in stating how much we appreciate this.
If you have other strategies it would be great to hear about them!

Back to the 10 BAR logic ...

Thanks for your recap of the strategy. This has been a useful exercise. We do have one subtle difference (covered first), but beyond that I think our logic is consistent.

It is now clear that I have implemented a different definition of "what is a bull bar?". Since we use the 00h bar, I chose to code open-close as the definition specifically to reduce the impact of gaps, especially on Monday Open. So it is interesting the learn that you actually include the gaps. This will certainly account for some of differences between the manual and PIN selections. I think deciding to include or filter the gaps is a subjective choice, so maybe that should be an option in the PIN?

As for the 3 formulas, I don't think we have an issue. Your second and third formulas are simply accounting for the shift of USD from the right side of the pair to the left. If you correct for this before you do the math then you can use the same formula for each pair. As follows:

Formula 1:
Both reference pairs have USD on the right. e.g. EURUSD; AUDUSD.
There is no special treatment. I use the same formula as you (n = x + 5 - y)

Formula 2:
One reference pair has USD on the left. e.g. NZDUSD=7; USDCAD=6

You adjust for this by reversing the terms in the formula (n = x - 5 + y).
I correct by reversing the left sided term first (y = z - y, where z is the number of bars in the sample, in our case 10) and then use Formula 1 (n = x + 5 - y).

So, using your example where NZDUSD=7 & USDCAD=6
For NZDCAD expected you calculate = 7 - 5 + 6 = 8

Whereas correcting for the left sided term: USDCAD = z - 6. y = 10 - 6. y=4.
Then feed this into formula 1: (n = x + 5 - y) = 7 + 5 - 4 = 8

Same result: 8.

Formula 3:
Both the reference pairs have USD on the left. e.g. USDCAD=4; USDJPY=7

For CADJPY expected you calculate: (4 - 10)*-1 - 5 + 7 = 8

Whereas I correct both terms first: USDCAD= z - 4. x = 10 - 4. x=6. USDJPY= z - 7, y = 10 -7, y = 3.
Then (n = x + 5 - y) = 6 + 5 - 3 = 8

Again, same result 8.

The advantage of this correction is that you only need to flip things once and only for 2 of the USD pairs, removing the need for the reciprocals, and everything becomes simply add and subtract. Quicker to do and easier to check.

Putting that all together, I first work out your currency halves (discarding the letters USD since they are just clutter) as follows:

AUD = AUDUSD
EUR = EURUSD
GBP = GBPUSD
NZD = NZDUSD
CAD = 10 - USDCAD
JPY = 10 - USDJPY

Then Formula 1 will work on everything, just substitute x & y for the currency halves:
e.g. AUDCAD expected = AUD + 5 - CAD

Hardly a Formal Proof, and if there is a maths guru reading this I would appreciate the second opinion!!!

This is a reply to kennyxox who has 2 questions about the Trailing Stop PIN.

Q1=Is it correct that no arrow signal should be on PINx?
First, you need to think about how a trailing stop works. You enter a trade, if it goes into profit then you can trail the price at a certain distance. Lets sat 100 points (Offset=100). If the price goes 250 points into profit, the trailing stop will have locked in 150 points (profit (250p) - trail (100p) = 150. Now let's say the price (and therefore the profit) starts to drops back. When profit falls below the locked 150 points, the PIN will generate an EXIT signal and the Dashboard will show an arrow (opposite signal). You will not see an arrow until some profit has been gained, locked, and the profit has dropped back below the locked value.

To get the Dashboard to exit, you need to set this as an exit PIN in the dashboard settings (see screenshot). You will also need to turn on Auto Close.

Note that if you have the Dashboard set up correctly, as soon as signal is created the trade will be closed, there will be no profit to trail, and the TSL signal will instantly disappear. With everything running correctly, you may never actually see the exit signal.

Q2=Is it appropriate to set the TF for trailing to M30 as default is H4?
If you are using Points mode for trailing then the Period has no effect - it is simply trailing price.
If you are using TSL with the 10 BAR (which is an intraday system) then a good place to start is with PSAR Mode, on a 15 Minute time-frame. You should also set Offset=0; otherwise TSL will add the Offset to the PSAR value and created a wider trail. (See screenshot). Higher timeframes are better for trend following systems (e.g. where you want to trail the price over several days, or longer).

PS. If anyone has suggestions about trailing stops, please feel free to share.

Interesting but bar count is a fixed rule without real sense in strength. 5 bars bull and 20 pips movement is not same than 50 pips. One way for do it more realistic is add ADR to formula.

When you have calculated strength you add:

(( adr=(1 - ( ADR percentage / 100))) * (adr<1?1:2 )) + ( strength value)

The idea is down strength when pair is closer to his ADR 100%. If pass this value then you are OB/OS movement and logic say strength will down faster

PD: Maybe i made mistake with embraces ( i did it in mobile)

Try don't lose pants never...

Hello jagzuk,

For the benefit of people not used to the EAX dashboard it's worth noting that the "x" has 3 methods of activating an exit order depending on the colour of the "x"

1st click gives a white x on red background = exit on opposite signal, so an entry arrow would have to reverse direction.

2nd click gives a black x on red background = exit when there is no signal arrow showing.

3rd click gives a gold (or whatever colour it is) x on red background = exit when an existing entry arrow disappears.

As with most of the clickable buttons on the dashboard, hovering the mouse pointer over any given button will give a description of what that button does.

I hope this will be of some help to someone.

Change Log:
Added New Setting: Bull defined as. Mode 2 should produce signals closer to Z's manual method.
Mode 1- Close > Open: Bar is a Bull if it closed higher than it opened.
Mode 2- Close > Prev. Close: Bar is a Bull if it closed higher that the previous bar closed.

Hi Z. Thank you for confirming. Good to have our signals aligned!
If it helps, I am attaching my set file for the Dash. You will need to load the PIN onto the chart and change the Session hours to your local time and preferences, ... and don't forget to run the force load history script before you do anything else, otherwise the Dash will fail to initialize.
