{quote} I kinda expected those to happen. It'ss nothing new. Anyway it does not matter if someone like it or not. Thing is this works. Sometimes not as good as I wants but it does. People can try and see. I'm not selling anything here. Thing is that only few of us on the forum will really check it and use it. Or take something from it. Most people will go on other threads with nice trend following system using 10 same lagging indicators called probably "Fluttershy's Rainbow Trading system" and will be happily using it. Well lets end joking and start...
Thanks for sharing SF, I like you style. If you can have such a small sl your R:R can be amazing. And if you can achieve a 40 to 60 % winners. Than you have a great edge. BTW I use ctader for quite a while now and in my opinion it's way better than anything else.... I use webtrader mostly cause I can trade everywhere.... Is there a way I can duplicate your indicator for the web trader? Thanks for your generosity, helping and sharing attitude.

Hi SilentFather

I' m very interested in this thread, but it's my first contact with cTrader. So I don't know how to copy your Indicator to the new platform.
Silent father this system intrigued me and I am trying to see hoe to make it work.

I Went long at 1.29748.
I drew three trend lines.
From your experience do they give a good indication where the USDCAD will turn?

Thank you, but I don't find an instruction, how to install indicators from a website. Only the custom-indicators integrated in cTrader

with your ctrader opened just double click (run) the .algo file inside the zip and it will install. confirm the installation pressing yes. you will find the indicator in the custom tab.

It is possible. At some point you will be able to enter just exactly before some bigger move will happen. So you should move into some profit right away when you place a trade. I will explain later but I got that idea after I realised (as someone already stated) that those horizontal levels are mostly on same places as 50% fibo.

Just a question here before anything else. If you know where 50% fibo is in advantage, how would you enter if you know that price moved from last high or low for 34 pips already? Thing is that price will and must move for more than 34 pips. Sooner or later. Think about it.

Price seems to be very lazy there. I would go short if price move up again. Actually every trendline is correct (same for any horizontal S/R) Thing is to catch and ride those with most potential. You will find point on the indi where price reverse everytime. But how to know these in advance? Well that's the thing. This is what I miss. You can see that sometimes price is moving in weird blank spots where you cannot trade with this. Patience is the key here. At least for now.

Weird error. Firstly check if you opening the cTrader file with cTrader. If not, click with right button and select "open with" and select cTrader. Should open properly then. And also always start cTrader as administrator.

Thank you again

Indicator attached to the first post. Now it will be much better to share any ideas and examples. I also checked SirViver idea and you can get those bands, but it is not the same. You can check now. Best version is from Old Dog so far.
Your indicator is for cTrader, I guess. What about one for MT4?

{quote} Your indicator is for cTrader, I guess. What about one for MT4?
I don't use MT4 so I don't have MT4 version. It is not needed. I have both only just because I want to trade later with new broker but they don't offer cTrader just now because "most people use MT4" sadly. Kinda annoying but whatever. You should get use to something new tho, MT seems old as hell and they never actually changed anything. MT4 is most used platform, but to be honest, it is very old. Looks like from year 98. I really don't use it at all.

{quote} Hello mate, Sure - no problem. I just plotted a displaced MA set to a Fib multiple of the ATR. Kinda like a Keltner displacement but just with a copy of the price. Actually, on closer inspection a few more things seemed to line up... Curious -- not sure why this works (if at all) but I am sure SF will tell us soon enough from his research. Kind regards, OD . {image}

Hello mate,

No problem at all. Just add a Moving Average of Period = 1 to your chart but no colour (see first pic).

Then add whatever levels you want (see second pic). You can tweak the levels until you get the best signals.

That's it

Kind regards,

OD
