Sure Parisboy, I can share on a 1 to 1 basis since I also had to pay a coder to get my code right. When he highlighted my error I had my hand to my head - a pretty simple one but yeah finally its working.

Hey @parisboy I've been trying to get this right, I've been using the focal points for a few weeks now successfully but recently took 2 grueling losses. The 16(purple) 32(yellow) and 64(blue) are all pointed down but the 16/32 are about to cross signaling the change of downtrend on the hourly of US30. I extended the black(256) and 128(red)
T-34420 or 33108 ?

A function of random data is still, random. No matter how interesting is this new way of looking at price action, it still doesn't provide you with any significant advantage over just looking at price action with a plain chart. As an example, look at the last few minutes of M1 GBPUSD below. {image} Now look at the equity curves of baskets of pairs of different currencies on this post. If I didn't tell which is which, would you be able to tell which is which? No.

In the Forex market is nothing random or the random result of buyers or sellers. Its driven by people who are able to move it, called the banks. Price has to reach each level at least two times in order to make money for them. Cycles are a real good way to spot this.
Stick to the plan!

No problem, I understand people are busy with their lives and what not. So did I do this strategy wrong and still get the correct result? T was for target, 1 going up and 1 going down.
This is an update, it hit the 33108

Hi Sir R4m,

I hope you are fine and safe.

I am still using some of your "Indicators for Discretionary" indicators (labtrend and trix mostly).
https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/...r-discretionar

I added just one indicator and it is still doing good with all the Christmas-like colors in it and still addicted with Gold/XAU too. hehe

After almost 2 years of trying to use other indicators, always ended up coming back to them and decided to just focus on them instead. And so I did. I even passed MFF using them.

Just want to extend my gratitude again.

Take care!

Regards,
Peppaer
My advice is to invest in tennis balls. They have a high rate of return.

Hey guys,

Great thread,

I'm getting a out of range exception because of the array index check.. is there a solution for this? I'm using a custom folder for the indicator -not the root folder.
