Hello!
Using 3 indicators from tpost#1 I see non changing hADR lines for days in strategy tester. Is it fixable? Or real time testing only?
Thank you!

Based right on it I tried to use every tick + visual mod. Indicators are in the template (tester is set to test some other ea with buttons for buy/sell).
But there is what I posted above: range is not changing during days.

I will have a look if adding refresh rate to indicator helps. It is a daily indicator on a lower frame chart so may not resolve.

Hence needing auto refresh indicator on chart with DHR line indicator.

scroll back and visually check this last week I set up the Fibonacci Tool to do the measurement

this method can not be backtested on the screen as the lines are dynamic and change during the course of the day

They are two different tools displaying the same thing:

The Fibonacci tool is set up to cover 100% ADR(10) for each day. But will have to adjust as the high and low change during the course of the day. At the end of the day the 50% will be marked.

My indicator is setup only to find 50% mark as the high low range for the day develops (expands), and meets the ADR(10)/2. It is not known if the 50% line will be the buy or sell line. Hence dynamic and let the market tell us. I wanted the indicator to be a simple and easy to use tool hence only a buy / sell line and target lines

For example. If the ADR(10) is 100 pips, the 50% is 50 pips. At the start of the day, the buy line will be 50 pips above the low of the first candle and the sell will be 50 pips below the high. If the during the day the price moves up by say 25 pips the sell line will move up by 25 pips, so will be now be 25 pips for the high of the first candle of the day. Therefore the final resting place of lines each day can potentially be further than the 50% mark

Use the ocr adr indicator posted by erebus in this thread

You mention the sell line moving up, that's fine, but you should also confirm that while price is moving up, and doesn't make any new low, the Buy line will remain fixed at the 50 pips in your example, and provide the level for a pending buy order, or did I miss something?
It takes a lot for me to IGNORE you, but you can try.

That is correct.

If pending orders with 15 minute expiry are utilised on the 15 minute time frame chart the changes in the level of the lines can be visualized as in post 2#.

Tend to trade the method manually as I want to see the price movement / action and if there are any improvements I can make / missing observations that would add value. The EA is used mainly to back test different ideas, such as incorporating currency strength etc...

No trade yesterday as no strength, price was ranging in narrow band with no obvious direction of travel.

When price starts touching emas and bouncing around time not to trade. Also on 1hr chart price is between 50 & 100 ema.

EMAs are not part of the method but help to determine whether to trade or not. I don't want to start adding indicators. Less is more.
Difficult to code this in indicator.

Yes using an EA based on pending orders. It does still need some filters for trades meeting SL. Hence trading manually.

I have a list of work on indicator first as requested by others, such as refresh rate, and then will add the EA I use for testing so others can test and feedback improvements. I'm happy to share and work with others.

The method is not prefect but has merit, there are improvements to be made regarding defining trading and non-trading days in code.

Observation and back testing has shown there is potentially an advantage to only enter buy trades when price is below the daily open price and vice versa.
