Disliked{quote} You were quite lucky as this was the worst trading day of the month with WTI going 3¢ with a very low ATR that produced 5 lousy winning trades and 1 good trade at the beginning of the session plus 1 break even trade. {image}Ignored

When out shopping my stop loss of 2 bricks got hit so $200 down the drain. If I had been home I could have hit the reverse button and recover the $200 plus a few more coins since WTI now up 15 bricks up after my SL. No more shopping for me when a trade is opened{image} {image}
Monday, missed the best trade, busy with my business. Yesterday, I missed just one 15 M bar, I was all ready, my price and time calculations hit, the arrow showed on the brick...15M late (was in the garden, weather too beautiful
), entered late, made a little profit. If I would have been on time, with my scaling in, I would have made 5 times more.The week was altogether profitable, but missing those 2, in my book, is a real bummer, cause as u know, we need those big winners to compensate losers.

i made halftrend tt modified indi which alert after one bar when have arrow signal so it basically Hutch's method.
this is using existing HalfTrend TT [x5v4] but i renamed to Halftrendorg.ex4 because this indi call from what i created indi .
you can set 1 bar or 2 bar or 3 bar later alert using HalftrendFixed indi parameter value is BarAlertOffset .
when fire alert it also check Fxbay macd value if up arrow and above zero fxbay it will fire alert vice versa when down arrow.
But while testing i frequently encountered arrow disappeared when showed arrow after one bar closed or sometimes arrow move to next bar
i tested with btcusd but not sure oil.

Same as above but with Half Trend TT factor of 1 instead of 2 in the post above. It doesn't work well with normal Renko since it gives signals that lead to losing trades but it looks like that it works better with median Renko and Renko shifted 25% since it gives earlier signals. As you can see from the 6 pictures there are many ways to skin a cat
