Hey team-

I modified Supersignal and renamed it UberfractalV02 for now. A few important notes:

1) Supersignal is really a super fractal finder. It is preset to look 12 bars to the left and 11 bars to the right (24 bars total), which is basically spotting the highest high or lowest low over a 2 hour timeframe on 5 min charts. That's also why it repaints so much, as much as an hour after you get a signal on a 5 min chart.

2) I changed the signal so you can choose how many bars to the left and right you prefer. A standard fractal, for example, would have barsToTheLeft = 2 and barsToTheRight = 2.

3) For the Paulus Protocol I suggest barsToTheLeft = 12 and barsToTheRight = 0. What you'll get is a long series of bars with signals on them with no repainting. So you're waiting for bars that change direction, don't have the signal anymore, then the iStoch signal, then go....

Yes, I know it makes for a cluttered screen. But the benefit is that it makes for more stable backtesting. After you backtest it you could then change barsToTheRight =1 or whatever for live trading.

ok quick snap shot important thing here none of these indicators repaints

just an initial look

The new Uber Ind RSI and istoch all 3 across 2 bars with Istoch coming in last of the 3 or joint last

basically whats happening is this for a short

Uber picks the high
RSI says 'Im over bought and here is a down bar'
Istoch says 'Im also overbought and coming down through my 75 level'

Action go short

Reverse for longs

On my screen shot shows 8 signals

SL
if we take 1pip below the low of the uber as a SL for longs and 1pip higher than the high of an Uber for a sl on shorts

TP
An RSI signal in the opposite direction we get the pips on the chart

Signals are fewer but the turning points look pretty good and gives +116 net

Stop may need work but for a mechanical system its a good start..if an ea can adjust risk to 3% per trade for example then the big stops when they happen wont hurt so much and will help build a smoother sharpes ratio

Well done pip

Paulus

Hi Paulus

I'm working on a combined EA for uberfractal, istoch, and the RSi signal, but I can't get to the raw code for the RSI-signal. If anyone has the raw code that will open in MT4, or just wants to describe exactly what the RSI should signal, I'll add it in.

For exits, I've got a 5 EMA trailing stop EA that updates the stop loss and also has a hidden stop loss if your broker won't let you update within 10 points of the market. I'll change it to match the exit rules as they get established.

I posted Uberfractal with default setting of barsRightOfCurrent = 2 because that's what a standard fractal would have. For our purposes, though, I explained in my post that:

"3) For the Paulus Protocol I suggest barsToTheLeft = 12 and barsToTheRight = 0. What you'll get is a long series of bars with signals on them with no repainting. So you're waiting for bars that change direction, don't have the signal anymore, then the iStoch signal, then go...."

I see that I called it barsToTheRight, although in the indi I called it barsRightOfCurrent. Anyway, if you set the barsRightOfCurrent = 0 you won't get any repainting.

Thanks to Paulus for sticking with the development of this system.

Nice to have all arrows on main chart without the panes below... makes it easy on the eye.

Each main indicator -- RSI Signal, Uberfractal, and IStoch-text is a valuable componant.

I hate gildng the lilly but... here is an addition that might help to keep us out of the "chop".

Comments would be appreciated.
