[idézet=sclay115;15299892]{idézet} Ez egy érdekes indikátor. Jól gondolom, hogy a 4 TF HA a HA gyertyák négy különálló idősíkjának sávállapotát/típusát mutatja? Ha igen, megvan hozzá az MQ4 fájlod? És milyen idősíkokat használsz, ha az M30-on kereskedsz? Köszönöm![/idézet]

Could someone take a look and help me understand what was wrong with these entries?

1. ETH - we have upper trend, price with signal candle break high
2. Gold, price started upper trend, signal on first pull back
3. USDCHF - upper trend, fast stoch cross 0

[idézet=Hehehe;15300631] Meg tudná valaki nézni és segíteni megérteni, hogy mi volt a baj ezekkel a bejegyzésekkel? 1. ETH - felső trendünk van, az ár a gyertya áttörésének csúcsán van 2. Arany, az ár felső trendet kezdett, jelzés az első visszahúzásra 3. USDCHF - felső trend, gyors stoch kereszteződés 0 {image} {image} {image}[/quote]
Tudom, utólag könnyű okosnak lenni, ezért csak néhány megjegyzés: Az USDCHF esetében a rövidebb stoch felfelé haladt át a nulla vonalon, de a TMMS indi nem mutatott volatilitást. Várj, amíg az indi meghaladja a 20-at vételhez, vagy -20 alá esik eladáshoz. Add hozzá a 4 időkeretű indit a grafikonodhoz, hogy a felső időkeretet is lásd. Csak akkor lépj be egy kereskedésbe, ha minden zöld (long) vagy teljesen piros (short) az M15-ön.
Az arannyal más a helyzet, úgy tűnik, mindent jól csináltál, csak peched volt.
Az ETH-ról nem tudok nyilatkozni, nincs a platformomon, nem tudtam rekonstruálni a kereskedésedet.

In the first image, the RSO orange line was on a long slow decline and near the 50. That line's purpose is to show you what is happening on the "next" higher time frame and since you are trading a 15 min. chart, that means the higher time frame is roughly 5 times higher, or basically the 75 ema.

*This is just one more reason why I said it can take a significant amount of chart viewing time to fully understand the RSO and its many nuances, if ever.

In the second image, that was a potential "head and shoulders" pattern forming, it was not a good clean Continuation Trade, and again, the RSO orange line was angling down to sideways.

In the third image, RSO orange line had just made a divergence with price and the RSO blue line was bouncing back and forth over the 50 and that tells you that there is no clear trend and to stay out. Personally, I never trade the CHF because I don't like the way it moves.

And, I don't know what time of day it was for any of these trades but that can play a big role when trading 15 min. charts.

Here's my best advice for you just for now.

1. Remove the smTMMS just while you are learning. You need to figure out how/when to enter on your own without using it (in the way you are).

2. ONLY trade Continuation Trades.

3. The best trade entry that I know of, the one that gives you the best chance of success is:

a) For Long trades, you want to RSO orange line to be above 80 (but preferably above 90) and you want to RSO blue line to be below the 20 and then to start turning back up, when it crosses the 50 is a usually a good entry.

b) For Short trades, you want to RSO orange line to be below 20 (but preferably below 10) and you want to RSO blue line to be above the 80 and then to start turning back down, when it crosses the 50 is a usually a good entry.

Hi everyone, I hope the week is starting off well for all.

I've been working on a few things with Tradingview, and I wanted to share the first. I've have some young kids, and they're on summer break. I also know that I have a habit of trying to see setups on the screen when they aren't there. I'm also out and about with the kids, or at their grandparents, etc.

So what does that mean? I really needed to be able to use TV for charting and order entry as I can have charts and layouts on the server side that follow me to what machine I am on. I wanted it to be able to send me signals for when I should "pay attention", so I started with the moving average crossovers.

I'm not sure how other platforms do this, but TV and Pinescript does this a bit funny since it only visually offsets the MA if you tell it to, it doesn't actually offset the value above the candle, so I was receiving the signal 2 bars (the offset) too late. Claude, if you haven't used it, is amazing at coding EAs, pinescript, etc. Try it. In the end, we got to this:

https://www.tradingview.com/script/M...-Cross-System/

There are 5 fully customizable moving averages, you can pick the type, period, offset, color, whether you want to use colored slope, etc. You can only have one signal currently, but it can be any combination of them. If there is interest, I can likely add other signaling options.

I've been using it for the past week or so and have been happy with the results, as it keeps me off the charting screen and away from making stupid mistakes.

More to follow, some fun multi-timeframe stuff and probably a whole TV chart template.

Cheers!

Thank you so much for sharing your trades! I've learned a lot, even though I trade the H4 timeframe.
What kind of order history indicator are you using? It looks much cleaner than mine.

RobinHood,

do you still look at the higher timeframe for a directional bias when using your EMAs & RSO?

As always your contribution is very much appreciated.

Hi guys, hi Mr. Robin,
I believe I’ve managed to come up with something very close to Template #1 that our friend Robin has shared with us.
Now the task is to bring it into MT4 and MT5. I know it won’t be an easy journey, but I’m going to pursue it.
I’ll be reaching out and talking with you—if that’s okay—so you can share your knowledge of the strategy and help me build something as close as possible.
Exactly the same? Probably not, because there will always be the trader’s thinking involved, which can’t be fully translated into an EA.
Thanks in advance—I hope we can build something good for everyone.

{quote} "If you were to trade exclusively on the daily chart for EUR/USD and GBP/USD, that probably wouldn't provide enough signals to achieve a profitable result in the shorter term (after 1-3 months)?" For me it would be. Count how many Continuation Trades you see on these 2 EUR/USD and GBP/USD Daily charts. So only you can decide for you if there were "enough" trades, and would you have been profitable overall. {image} {image} "When you trade the 4H charts, do you have specific times when you look for potential signals" I no longer trade the...

No.

1. I have no idea which indicator that you are talking about.

2. I really dislike unappreciative people. I took A LOT of my time and effort to THOROUGHLY answer your questions for me from your post #10,723 where I responded in my post #10,725 and I did it less than 3 hours after you asked. However, 5 other people found the time to give me a thumbs up, but NOT you. Then you come on here 7 days later without ever saying thank you, and then you have the nerve to ask me for even more, so that's not happening.

That is why i stopped responding to posts about indicators/method and templates.

People do not take the time to read and put the effort in. Like you said, all the Q&As are already done, people just have to read through it and put some effort in by back testing than getting everything handed to them.
Find a strategy that works consistently and then trading becomes easy.

Hi guys, catching up after a month

@robinhood
Excellent post about the 55 and 12 stochs - to remove red herrings when trend is exhausted (
usually spotted by
- divergence of value of slow indicator
- opposite slope of slow indicator
)
I used decreasing tick volume for signs of exhaustion, but it always used to take a breath and resume when I was out, very frustrating

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

@roscearm
Rocking results,
are you seeing the same edge on 15m consistently as you had in lower tf before ?(which you tracked here before)
The reason I asked is in my experience currency pairs seem to be choppier in 15m compared to 5m and 30m, do you see the same ?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To all here
Is the Hull moving average indicator in MT5 same as the one @robinhood shared in MT4 ? the parameters seem to be different for this one.
