DislikedHi Matt,
I think I have it figured out. For this example I am looking at the 3rd image in your post. If you have a short signal, the Lag logic in the EA says exit when the second Lag crosses back up from below 0.15 to above 0.15, signal the exit. But because the trend was not well established, Lag2 never made it low enough to come back up and give the signal. Three things about this:
1. This is why QQE is so good with the other indicators. It would have gotten you out with a small loss.
2. Lag is really reactive on small TF's, but the values we use as defaults do not seem reactive enough for the 1 hour. It might be interesting to modify the lag 2 indicator to see if you can find a good 1 hr signal. Then look backwards and see if the value applies equally well on many trades.
3. If Lag2 crosses above the 0.85 mark, then you also have no trend and we should pobably make that the alternative exit criteria rather than modifying the value on my above point. That would have gotten you out even earlier than QQE
So Matt, could you please look back and see if my point 3 applies to other false trends? If it does, I will generate a new beta with that test and we can try it out this week.

DislikedYes, it can be made to open on the same candle as it closed on. I thought I had seen this happen, but there was a lot to fix early on. I will fix this in Beta 7.

DislikedI wonder if the QQE could be coded to exit at the moment it crosses, rather than waiting for the candle close. That could save a lot of pips; then, when the candle does close we would have a fresh signal for the next trade. Anyone try this?
I know the QQE will sometimes cross, then uncross during while a candle is open, but from what I have noticed that is just before it makes it true "cross". Might be worth looking into.
It might be a strech for ME to suggest a change to the heart of our system; but I know I have many times looked at a closed trade thinking "damn, if only it got out here, and opened a new one here, that woulda been perfect"Ignored
DislikedHallo Rick!
It seems that this is really worth a try, as otherwise trades would be going on for a very long time, although the objective observer would be screaming to stop it!
If that is possible to add to the code it would truly add value to the Laguerre issue. I have skimmed through a lot of pairs on the search for these scenarios and have found that the less volatile the pair, the longer one stays in with this combo - even against all odds!
Will go to bed now as tomorrow will be another kids morning for me!
G'night!

DislikedHey Ufo!
Do we have another nice pikkupakkasta day in Finland again? Hope you are doing fine. Seems the link is broken up there, at least I cannot get the file!
Hope to see it later then!
See yu!

DislikedFrom what I have researched this is a result of multiple orders flooding the broker server from your PC it will lock you out of everything except hitting SL/TP for anywhere from seconds to minutes. This is something we need to address as if the EA sends an order on multiple pairs and get this lock out it won't try again until the close of the Bar up to your maximum cross setting.
So I have had it fill 3 bars later. I think we need to add code that will continue to attempt to fill during that bar. What do you think Rick???Ignored
