John, your chart actually shows an overbought condition not oversold condition.

Below is snippet I pulled from a website on the use of stochastics.

Use

Readings below 20 are considered oversold and readings above 80 are considered overbought. However, Lane did not believe that a reading above 80 was necessarily bearish or a reading below 20 bullish. A security can continue to rise after the Stochastic Oscillator has reached 80 and continue to fall after the Stochastic Oscillator has reached 20. Lane believed that some of the best signals occurred when the oscillator moved from overbought territory back below 80 and from oversold territory back above 20.

Hi Afxtrader

Thanks for correct me. I type wrong word again. I will be cautious next time.

I created an EA for MT4 that you all might find helpful. It will basically print the current COT report data on your MT4 screen. It is completely free but requires you download a file from CFTC. More information can be found here, http://www.jeremywhittaker.com/2010/...dex-variant-a/.

This is variant-a of the program. What is does is compute the net long of each category. I'm going to write another variant which applies MACD to the data. When that is complete I will upload it.

hi dyos,
I'm running a COT thread at interactive trading "http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=216247"
I'd appreciate if you can share your indicator and your achievements and results there,

there is another idea about generating a SSI based EA,let me know what you think ,
I'd like to know what kind of algorithm you use for your EA based on COT

regards

Dyos,

Thank you for your indicator, will be using this week and provide feedback, also look forward to MACD addition.

One thing, not to be picky, but you need to add a "t" to the word instrument in the first paragraph on your website. Sorry, that just jumped out at me.

I find divergence very useful. What I mean by divergence is that, when commercials are adding short positions for example, but the week fails to close higher than it opened, I'm beginning to look for shorts next week. The concept behind this is that, when there's increasing supply but the market doesn't absorb, price should fall and vise versa when there's increasing demand but market doesn't sell.

For entries I rely exclusively on technical analyse (S/R, PPZ, PA) and never have any targets, I get out when the market tells me to get out. In other words if I'm short I'll get out when commercials increase their longs but the week fails to close lower than it opened. It works nicely for any market.

How much would you be willing to pay monthly for a COT indicator that puts the net positions on a MT chart? You would be able to setup alerts if the Net position crossed above/below a ceiling etc.

If there's enough interest Ill develop it.

From where your indicator automatically gets cot data?

Why reinvent the wheel. There is already a net cot indicator

Can you chart the COT with your indicator?

Does it automatically update at 2:30pm est when CFTC updates their site?

Can you set alerts?

Can you incorporate the data into automated trading strategies?

try removing the indicator and installing it back to the directory. the indicator mght not be communicating with the shatterfield server to get the weekly numbers. I have not tried the COT synthetics but I am using the same idea in the COT Proxy
