Most of time yes, but as long as the price moves within a chanel in 4H chart trendline, if it breaks it means i have to close all running position and wait till the next signal for antry.

Oh okay....so you use a 4H chart as well as a daily. Do you attach any indicators to the 4H chart?

Hi Samurai, when I look at daily G/U now I do not get the last white arrow. Do you see the same and any reason why that would be the case. I like your idea and will see if an EA can be written.

Maybe Samurai's MT4 server is in different time zone with yours, which means the open/close price are not the same as yours, or something like that.

Hey Fredella,

I think you should get white arrow, do you use same indi.Samurai posted?
Or just put 2 ema's on chart. First: Period 1, close. Second: Period 2, close.
They shouls cross 2 bars back. That would mean, next bar after cross arrow should appear.

That makes sense. Unfortunately makes it also a bit more difficult to compare results. I seem to have the arrow always in line with HA. Maybe because i'm living in the GMT0 timezone. Thanks for your views ...

But i recomend trade only for the spesific day only when yesterday candle shows the indis is in line, maybe about 2-3 times a month, coz thats avoiding the drawdown u might not afford to lose, if u prefer to continue trade untill the posible direction change thats your own choise, but please demo it so u can really understand the risk and know how to handle it.

I use trendline, if there is posibility for the price to break the trendline then i have to close all running position, turn the the EA off and wait till next signal for entry. Demo it for about a week or two so u can feel if u trade against the trend.

Quoting pips stunner
the arrows repaint.just observed that today on the EUROGBP pair.i entered long this morning but came back to see no arrow again. Anyone there with a solution to this?
Quoting SamuraiPower
I see the HA color on EURGBP yesterday candle is red, yes I see the up arrow (again), but those two indis are not in line, so its too risky for me, but I see now the EURGBP price is up, u might get good pips, but still "risky" good pips for me..

Keep demo it

Regards,
Samurai Power
Yesterday candle on eurgbp shows that the indis are not in line (green circle on the chart), the HA color is red (down) but the arrow is up (no wonder it repaints), but sometimes the arrow gives a very good sign than HA, u are lucky the price went up, u must have been catching a "risky" good pips yesterday.

Samurai Power

Hey S-power,

that is really simple and very good idea. Acourding backtesting: trade when arrow and HA agree and close all positions after 24hours, almost all days seems to be profitable, just a few negativ for few pips (5-15pips).
Will do more tests on more pairs today.
Oh..and positions shouldn't be keept threw weekend, weard stuff going on then, and price likes to turn on Mondays.

BTW, what is your monthly fee for VPS? I'm thinking geting that service to.
Thanks fren, and wish you a nice weekend.

Hi gasgas, looks indeed with setting EMA 3 close and EMA 7 close we get a similar result as with the arrows and HA. If these cross over, wait 2 days and then trade. The day in between is when the arrow will appear. Will set this up, hopefully this weekend. Have a great one and i think we should all thank Samurai Power for his amazing insight.

Yes gasgas fren, im thinking about trading multiple pair, but trade only when the indis confirmed, so I can trade more than 3 times a month with all of them high probability entry setup.
im using vpsland.com taking ez lite plan for $18 a month, the cheapest one but quite accomodate my needs attaching my EA.

When U already register for a VPS,

Klik start> all program> accessories> communication> remote desktop connection

Then u have to input the IP address and the password that the VPS provider given to u.

It will look like the pic below...

The EA is running on my VPS, so i dont have to worry turning my comp off, the EA will keep running on my VPS server.

Hi all,

I've been back testing it for 8 pairs
GBPUSD, EURUSD, NZDUSD, USDCAD, USDJPY, EURGBP, USDCHF, AUDUSD

The condition is:
yesterday daily candle shows that the indis is in line between the arrow and the HA (High probability), and trade on the next daily candle for 24 hours only to avoid drawdown.
Back test for only 1 month period of Jan 2009 (back test it for longer time if u would like to)
Deposit : $1000
Lot size : 0.1
(0.1lot for every $1000 deposit), I recomend 0.1lot for every $5000 deposit
TP : 100pips
the rest setting is default

The result is
The most tradable pair:GBPUSD, EURUSD, USDCAD, NZDUSD, USDCHF
Total net profit : 1716pips ($1716)
Max drawdown : -274pips ($-274) or equal -27.4% compare to deposit
Growth : 170% in a month

Learn the excel analisys i attached, compare it to plain daily candle and my daily candle template.

If its manage to keep grow 150%/month, u can turn $1000 to a million in 9 month (I hope)

gasgas fren, i need your comment..

Samurai Power

Hi all,

Thanks to Samurai for sharing this method and also for his continuing efforts to improve it.

I have downloaded and installed the files from the first page. When compiling the EA, I observe certain messages. I know that the nature of the message is such that the EA will still work, but I was just wondering whether I have the latest EA presently in use. Also whether the relevant functions that are being removed during compilation are importan to the proper functioning of the EA. The EA that I am using is :Firebird v63G trader seven.

The messages being received during compilation are:
Function "CloseTheseTrades" is not referenced and will be removed from exp-file

Function "CloseLoosingTrades"is not referenced and will be removed from exp-file

Similar messages for hree more functions.

Hi,

I wonder about trading on Sunday and Monday. If the trend is clear on Sunday night, that is if the last signal was clear, should I trade even though the weekend was in between? The same goes for Monday, should I trade on Monday if the trend from Sunday is clear, since Sunday is not a full trading day. All of this of course if there is a clear trend.

Yes TradeForexFx, i'm using the EA i attached on the first post, never changed it till now. I was having the same experience when the first time I analyse this EA and tried to compile it, I found several error message when i was compiling it, all I know the EA work properly and i think there is no bad effect, and i'm really stupid about programming.

Yes Archie, I am thinking about that too, when i'm looking at the chart and analize it, sometimes the indis gives a good clear trend signal even weekend is in between, but I have no good feeling about trading on monday, coz the trend reversing extreemly quite often, but anyway let's analize it together when its come again ok..
