Aleksey I have quick question, do we continue to fade the 12 hour bars after a PcciM bar until we get a stoploss and then wait for another one, as long as they are not against a strong trend? Or do I have this wrong?
If we are talking about the trading by using the PCCI_M indicator only then our rules have to be:

1. To trade by opposite way from a signal of the PCCI_M Indicator for next bar; to open a position on the opening of next bar and compulsoryly to close a position on the closing of the bar if a takeprofit or a stoploss are not triggered;
2. To skip all consecutive signals after a triggered stoplos. It is the protection from a strong trend.

Thanks, that clears it up for me.

It is supposed to be offline. It updates from the 4 hour . If it is off line it is working correctly. Watch it and you will see it is doing real time just fine.

Here are calculations of the PCCI_M indicator for UCDCHF for TS as an example. They have to coincide with MT4 results. Please check it.

Looks good to me.

Although My broker time is GMT so that may skew it a bit from yours.

I used the esignal data to calculate that picture on the basis of M1. There is some difference between pictures because of the data but it is ok

Question-

The rule says to not take a consecutive signal, when a signal has hit the SL.
Does "consecutive" mean a signal on the very next bar?
Thanks

Yes, for every next consecutive signalised bar.

Ok- let's make sure I understand.

Let's say there are three consecutive long signals.

I take the first one and hit SL
I do not take the second.
If I had it would have hit SL.
Do I take the third?

Thank you

We have not to take neither second one no third one but only first one standing by itself from that series of consecutive bars.

Hi Aleksey,

Thanks for sharing this system, it seems really great!

Can you please tell how the PCCI indicator exactly works? I cannot read mq4 codes, but would like to write a simulation in VB, so it would be good to know when this indi signals exactly.

Thanks.

You can convert its TS code (please see the file above) to VB, it is based on the digital filter (like MA) and we just calculate its gradient from closing of a bar and normalize by 25-bar volatility.

I have MT4 and have put the indicators in my experts/indicators folder and I have put the Volatility1 folder in the profiles.

When I click on the profiles it displays the empty charts and has the message "waiting for update"...how long should it take to update?

It's been 5 minutes and counting so far.

For some reason it isn't working on my MT4(I have IBFX mini account)...in history it gives the error" invalid database header for EURUSD 720"...

Can this be fixed?

Aleksey, one more question:

Does it matter in which time zone I am (or which time zone my chart reflects)? I am in GMT+1, and my chart plots the bars according to GMT+2. Thanks.

Yes, time zone matters but if we use TS then it can be easy corrected.
