F4's Journal

works fine, must be your zip program, i use ZipGenius works really good and supports all formats and its free

Hello f4,

first of all thanks for sharing your excellent set-up.

I am not able o unzip your updated zip. I am getting the message : no file to extract. can you please re-load. Thanks.

sure thing

Happy New Year Folks.

I see everyone is keeping up the good work.

The T3 Taotra indicator you can see in the bottom window is rather interesting. Just thought you guys may want to take a look at it.

Hi Guys

Thank you for an interesting strategy.
I just finished reading the entire thread and can I assume that the zip file in Post #1 is the current "zip" and that the others posted along the way are all older?

Cheers
Wayne

the 1st and last current zip are both the same.

Thank you F4.

Hi, F4...

here is my current setup (for today, anyway .. a perfect entry is when everything lines up (which happened where the green vertical line is). T3 RSI 150 and 50 both crossed up, bbmacd dot turned blue, and price crossed up through all the ema's and the laguerre filter, and was even above the 100ema. Exit when the bbmacd dot turned red AND the one or the other of the T3 RSI's crossed 0 (usually 50). You do have to wait for candle close on those, I get faked out sometimes

Indicators:

MA filled ribbon 34/50 ema's
MA filled ribbon 5/12 ema's
Laguerre filter .85 (yellow line)
100 ema (purple line)
T3 RSI (150 T3 setting)
T3 RSI (50 T3 setting)
BBMACD 38, 120, 20

Depending on how aggressive you want to be, you could also enter just if the bbmacd changes color and the T3 RSI 50 crosses 0, regardless of anything else. This usually works out, but is more risky. The T3 crossing is usually the best indicator, and I would love to have an alert for that. Somewhere I found an alert for when the bbmacd dots change color, which would be just as good, but I didn't download it at the time and now I can't find it again.

On this particular chart (which is current as I'm writing this) the place where the exit is would also have worked out to be a good short entry, even though the only things lining up were the T3 RSI 50 and the bbmacd. I didn't take that one and it hasn't ended yet (bbmacd still red, T3 RSI 50 still below 0) but currently it's at +30 pips or so.

Here are the indicators and template if anyone wants it

Rules are easy... enter when T3 50 crosses 0 (wait for candle close, the alert sound does not wait for that) AND bbmacd dot changes color. These should happen at the same time.

Exit when T3 50 crosses 0 again and bbmacd dot changes color again (for a longer-term trade, you could use T3 150 crossing instead). I also set a break even stop loss after reaching +20 or so pips. No stop in the beginning, i just watch carefully and if I get a reversal signal I will exit. If you are worried about news announcements or computer crashes, an initial stop of 30 or 35 pips (I should probably do that).

For a higher-probability trade, the T3 150 should also cross 0 and the closer the 5/12ema ribbon is to the 34/50ema ribbon, the better.

If anyone can figure out to make the sound alert wait for the candle close, it would be even better, but it works pretty well as is.

Those are great bbmacd settings

LOL! Yeah, wonder where I got those from


(thanks!)

Thank you very much celticheart, lol yea I think we have all stole a little from canuck...Thanks canuck also for everything

Well I had a good week. Time to close my charts and go sit in the sun and recharge my battery's a little. Then nap, clean up, then time to go dancing tonight, a buddies band is playing local and should be lots of fun. Everybody have a really nice weekend.

No problem

Also, somehow I must have made some change to my T3 alert (because it was correct when i first got it to work), and it was saying Up when it should have said Down (oops). Just fixed it and re-uploaded the zip file.

And really everything on my chart has come from these two threads (fx-50 and this one), I just arranged the indi's and settings to my particular trading preferences

Thanks again to you, Canuck and Flamenco, I've learned the most from you three

really like that alert celticheart ! are these run mainly on one minute time frames ? or do you go out to 5 or 15 min ? and at what settings are working best ! does anyone know what the t3rsi is?

I've tried other timeframes up to 4 hr, but the 1min works the best for me. I think it has a lot to do with your personality and how you want to trade. I like very short-term trades, and I think there is more profit potential there as well. Any system I've ever seen, when you go over it on the higher timeframes, it seems like it never nets as much, and the drawdown risk seems to be a lot higher, also.

You can use the indicators on any timeframe you want, it's really whatever works best for you.

I don't know how the T3 line is calculated, but the rsi line is a regular rsi. The crossings with the T3 line seem to work much better than rsi going above and below certain levels.

Thanks celticheart,

I still like entering with ZLS indi, +with T3 it seems it filters some bad trades. If they both cross same time, gives good probability for nice trade, I will demo trade it next week to see how it goes.

Cheers
