Indicators development for T101's not very simple method

Quoting Orest

Do you mean similar to Anchor indicator, but showing the trends on different time frames?

BTW why would you want to stare at CPU? You're supposed to stare at monitor. Probably what's why you couldn't notice the trend change.
Sorry, couldn't resist.

When pair doesn't jump "this time" it holds the last jump's value, so it could potentially show same slot number on different pairs.

Regarding showing slots delta it's not very informative so far. Suprisingly it's almost always shows "1" with arrows up or down.
Do we still want that?

It was my intention to only allow one line per indicator. (Makes coding easier for me =D) as long as only one of the pairs is selected for display, the indicator will work.

The current problem I'm having is some pairs are ending up with the same rank.

Suggestion.

Is it possible to make variation of this indicator plot the equity, not based on the demo account, but on the value based on a particular deposit date and deposit balance relative to the basket of pairs (7 Buys 7 Sells)?

This would give us a visual of what the Buys and Sells are doing from the time specified before( 4hour, Day, Week back).

What do you think?

I do. I could live without it, but I would find it easier. A '1' will become background noise and a '2' will stand out. This is much more easily understood at a glance. Besides which it will free up space on the low res version.

I was thinking something similar, maybe another version of the Orest Indi could display the behavior of the pairs from a specific time.
The actual Orest Indi shows where the pair came only from last jump, so some signals are just "noise".
I think it would be helpful to show the pair rank from the beggining of the displayed time period, insted of "last jump ranking", that way you could see where the pair was, for ex at the beg of the candle open and where is it now. Some kind of "static ranking from specified time period".
Maybe it could be another version for testing purpose, so we can check which one is more helpful.
That makes sense?
Hope that gets those brilliant brains going.

Sorry if I'm not clear, english isn't mother language.
Not being "negatively critical", just some thoughts that may bring something to the table.
Of course I'm very grateful to Orest, RR, Icicle and everyone that puts their time and effort to make this work. Thank You All!

Have a nice day

Are people using the IA (dicator Account) still, or just Orest's indicator.

I have several scripts/indicators that manage the IA and display spaghetti graphs. They might be a nice complement to Orest's if you're interested.

maybe this is a nice tool, which could help to see where trend reversed in the past. it sheows the total short pips & long pips as a line + the total of both. like in the orest indi at the bottom of every coloumn.

tf = timeframe
look_back = periods to look back (0 means actuall range of tf)

blue = long
orange = short
yellow = total of both;

make a visual line at level 25 for 15 min tf to have a signal for short or long
use a visual line at level 100 for 60min tf to have a signal for short or long

Ok, thanks PriNova - this one would be easy to modify.
I said modify because we also need another indicator which would mock 14 long and 14 short trades to see how it goes let's if we open 14 shorts(longs) an hour ago.

Orest,
I modified your version 1.11 to show if all were buys or all were sells.
The logic of gathering statistics was changed. so that when buy it uses now - last_close and when sell it uses last_close - now. This is done for each timeframe.otal

It appears that in the long term there is no hedging because buy_all when false shows almost all winners. The pairs in the list have almost all been in a downtrend for some time.

The new input is buy_all true or false.

hello orest,

maybe i found a math bug

Inserted Code

else if (week_back==5) // this day
 {
     tf = PERIOD_D1;
     [b]bars_back = 0;[/b]
     i_Open = true;
 }

your bars_back value is zero cause you want the statistics for this day.thats ok

but...

Inserted Code

else if (week_back==7) // hour ago
 {
     tf = PERIOD_M1;
     [b]bars_back = 60;[/b]
     i_Open = true;
 }

count 61 minutes, because the actuall (zero) bar and the past 60 bars(minutes). you have to count the zero as index 1, because you use iOpen.
this is the same with the other timecalculations.

But you are true if you do not want to take the actual bar into your calculations. otherwise you have to subtract 1 from every bars_back in the two run_statistics_XXXX() functions.

if i'm right: cut & paste: otherwise trashbin.
