Hiho Rick!

The different TF for opening and closing has been in my mind and mentioned in the Journal ever since October last year. If you find a good way to do that, it would really be great together with the QQEA-entry-settings being different from the QQEA-exit-settings.
The reliablility of a close really to be executed just like an entry is very important as so far I have witnessed that 1 losing trade is eating up the gains of 2-3 winners!
A question: Is the clean and clear Dot-to-Dot trading possible if I enter on QQEA only and exit with all possibilities set to fault? I think so, but the versions get my head swimming and I guess you know this baby best right now!

Thanks for your great effort and help!

Hi Gnat,

I'm not sure about your question. Do you mean enter on QQEA only and exit when all exit criteria are enabled and just one is true?

Sorry: I want to be able to enter on QQEA and exit on QQEA (in the future a second QQEA(2)) only. No other indicators enabled.
That would make it possible to test the other indicators in combination with that basic and working concept.

Hope that was clearer ... it is so loud here, I doubt that I can make my fingers type my thoughts...

Hi Matt,

Not a problem. I am going to try to work on this a bit later today. Hopefully, I can have something ready by tomorrow.

Hi Smeden!

I will definitely have a look during this week. This may be a great help for the manual traders that feel a bit unsafe still. The design of the room is really funny. Looks like the Supernova Comic Book!

Thanks for that opportunity!

Hallo Rick!

Another example of something that may need some tweaking in the long run. I am not sure of the Laguerre, but then I need to take FX_Ninja's settings and try to make it faster and better.

Please have a look at the attached screenshots. I marked my concernes in there. If you have more questions or need more details, just let me know.

Thanks again! And Good Night from Hamburg!

Hey Robert!

Thanks for the Email! The Glenn 1.6 is now tested for the LaGuerre in particular and whether it is working as scheduled. Until now it has not yet unveiled its secrets completely!

Hope to get in touch with you soon!

I'll have to take a pass on that. I think there are plenty of examples of my trades on this thread as you are very well aware. It is a little creepy asking for shots from a trader's live account. Maybe someone else will help you out but I am not your guy.

BTW - ALL the trades I posted in this thread were from my live account - why do you need to see my statement to help you "learn" more. Like I said - creepy.
You misunderstood, neither do I want to see the statement, nor the account number, just take a screen shot when entering the trade, not the complete trade, "edit it" to remove all that is unacceptable to you. Then just write what made you enter the trade, like the market was jumpy, too cold, no 100+pips moves had happened, etc. I do not want to see your or anyone's account nor broker, as it totally does not help me to realize the idea of the SuperNova system.

For example you enter the trade at 2:15 AM Eastern, the QQE clicked, but the DMI/Momentum/CCI was lagging, but you still took the trade, so post the "edited" screen shot showing the candles/Heiken Ashi and the indicators that were there, no account/whatever. Then just write why you took that trade, was that trade regular practice or an exception, etc. I want to see the Entry and Why you entered. Nothing more absolutely.

The idea is to understand your mindset at the moment of entry. That is what I want to learn. I have applied SuperNova successfully, but I am consistently getting 60/40. Which is very disappointing. On larger time frames I use a differnent swing trade method. I am lookng for the "correct mindset idea", not anyone's account/statement.

I am again sorry that you misunderstood my intenetions. The complete trade will be visible to me when I see it on my brokers charts.

Best regards,
Randy.

Well, I was in about 20+ trades in the same time and apart from the first and another real one none of them must have ended in tears. The PSAR is doing its thing here, but on the longer TFs it has longer time to develope and move your stops. Here on the 15M it seems to be late. But that should not matter as the QQEA recross and/or the LaGuerre should have taken it out!
__________________

@Rick: While typing that another thought springs up: If I exit on QQEA & LaGuerre then one of the two will trigger the exit right? Or is the whole setup waiting for them to "agree". That could be the cause of the late exits, as the QQEA is waiting for the LaGuerre to also vote for a close.
__________________

I will adapt the tested settings from Ninja tomorrow and give it a go from there! Maybe this will help us to really see the functionality of the LaGuerre in this version of the EA. With the standard setting we go nowhere on the exits and sometimes late on the entries.

Hope you catch more sleep, Wolf of California!! :

Hi Jat!

Guess that is cool and maybe the misunderstanding lies also in the fact that this has happened already and maybe NOFXster thought you ought to know as you were on the thread before.
There are several complete and detailed trades by our Dogstyler in the months October, November and early December that you can find either by skimming through these months or by looking into NOFX's posts via his profile. There you can klick on "All posts by NOFX" and then you can select the one that sound like a trade. There were dozens altogether.
Unfortunately he is a bit busy and got into a completely stupid situations with Vlad the Impaler who asked his integrity out of thin air. I know that you are just after the good information that NOFX has in store and it is all here on the thread.
If you still encounter problems to find it, please let me know and I will help you on the search and post some links to nice trades.
While you are searching it is also good to find some manual trades by awesome792 and her brilliant style of using other concepts in combination with entries and again others with exits!

I think the misunderstanding here is history.

Best Wishes!

Hey Wolster!

This guy drives me crazy! He carries the name of my native island "Sylt" and he is regularly paying visits to this thread. Whenever I try to contact him/her, popp - sylt - is gone!
Which is really a shame as I am sure I would know that person. I have been living there for all my life as I return to the island on such a regular basis that I still have a mulitude of friends there.
Well - It apparently shall not be!

I am off to bed now! Guess we will iron the flaws from the Glenn 1.6 and then we party!

Hi Matt,

Really great testing! This helps a lot. I am going to dive in with your suggested enhancements and possible bug scenarios. I am still hopeful 1.7 will be released tomorrow. As much feedback as you can give me until then will be enormously helpful.

Hi Rick!

I will try and see what other trades are showing tomorrow morning. If there are new things coming up I will instantly let you know. Is there any feedback from the behaviour on 5M so far? Well, I guess we can sort it out on the way, but the 1.7 would be very appreciated with the two QQEAs and the closing on different TFs.
I really like it. Thanks for all the work!

Good Night!

Hi Matt,

Looking at the code now. The exits are mutually exclusive, so any condition should trigger the exit. The entries are not mutually exclusive. All conditions must be met. Those entries and exits are definitely sub-optimal. Do most of the entries/exits come closer to the crosses?

I think I might see what's ailing the Laguerre exits. Also, I can see why the closes can be intermittent. The slippage is really tight. Time to get a little coding done.

Hi Gnat!


I have posted before, and NoFx did reply to me. I never challenged the integrity of any traders in this post (that is why you top users of this system are the generals and the soldiers follow by example). I am in quest for knowledge, not in the business of defamation or any other of those derogatory ideas. I guess I should have been more forthcoming in the first post. I will click on the posts of October, November and December of NoFx and will likewise post here of the things I find of interest.

The very idea of entering a trade is something I have always like on a shorter time frame. I was having a Skype chat with a fellow SuperNovian “Thijs” the other day, about him using it on a larger time frame. So I do like collaboration and free exchange of ideas.

I am in this post because I want to make money more successfully on a shorter time frame. I in fact enter longer swing trades with larger lots and more easily, than the shorter ones as they bite me back a lot more. Those profits are in the tune of 300+ pips but require me to wait a long time for the charts to align and a confirmed trend. The Guppy oscillates 300 pips a day, and a 60/40 is just not cool, I mean at least 75/25 should be the success rate for me. That is the reason I wanted the state of mind when entering the shorter trend. I hope I am making my case and intentions clear.



Best regards,
Randy.

Ya man no hard feelings. My point is that all the trades I posted here were live and were the exact charts I used to make them. I even did a live trade call step by step on the thread here at one point so you can follow that through if you want.

I simply do not have the time to give a running commentary on all my trades. I have other things to do as well and Gnat was right - I am busy on other forex projects as well as having a family and multiple other daily obligations.

I think the info found here already in the thread should be sufficient.
