The AshFX System - Version II

Swingman, can you confirm my understanding of the workings of Dashboard?

a) The second line of the dashboard reads: ...(current signals, refresh 1 min) ..

1. At anytime the dashboard will scan for signals on the present -but yet unfinished- bar. So the signals can change until the bar is finished. The column headings of the timeframes show the remaining time until finish of bar.

2. To see signals on the finished/completed bar the indicator settings can be set to shiftsignals 1 instead of 0.

The second line will read now ......(signals 1 bar ago)....

b) The FAT Arrow shows the signal, the price behind shows the price at which the signal was triggered, the price in the second row shows the present price.

c.) The five small triangle shaped arrows show the position of the five elements of the system

d.) The first element NOT as a triangle, but as a small arrow in an highlighted arrow shows the major systems trigger: switch of the PSAR ( Psar as FIRST dot). Only after this shows, the other elements (triangles) are checked for same trade direction, if all are identical - you might trade (check for further indis/fibs/SR....)

e) If all five elements (triangles) are of same color, but first one (PSAR) NOT highlighted --- do nothing!

I hope my understanding is correct, thanks to ash (forexmoments) and Swingman.

Regards

Dear all,

I'm proud to present my latest system, AshFX: Version II. ........

Regards,

Ash
And I am proud to present the EA to auto-trade the method.

Stick it on a demo on as many charts as you can - it takes a while for the trades to start kicking in. I started it yesterday; only today has it take a couple of trades on the 4H, both doing well.

The inputs should be pretty obvious. Trading time filters work on you computer's local time, so the defaults might not be suitable.

If you are unfamiliar with the money management features, follow the link in my sig and download the mptm user guide for an explanation of Jumping stop, BEP and so on.

The stop loss is for emergency use only - in case a market tanks just as your computer looses connectivity. The 200 default represents my estimate of disaster on the 4H. Daily trading presumable wants more.

Here is how the robot works - assume a long trade for the purpose of the example:

  1. Trade entry:

    1. If the market 2 periods ago was below PSAR, and the market 1 period ago was above PSAR, then the robot sets a global variable with the value of the proposed trade direction - 0 for long, 1 for short.
    2. On each subsequent tick, the robot examines Stochastic, AO and AC. When these line up, it sends the trade. I am assuming that if AO one period ago is higher that two periods ago then the indi will change colour. Likewise AC. If this is an incorrect assumption, then some further coding might be needed.

  2. Trade exit: any one of these methods, depending on your settings:

    1. closes on a change of direction by PSAR; also by a reversal in the value of AO.
    2. retraces to hit a jumping stop set by the robot.
    3. hits your take profit.

So, let's see what this baby is capable of.

I've been meaning to do this:

Have at it everyone.

The default settings will work as described by the system, all you need to change is the lot size.

I determine swing high/swing low, as the most recent fractal above/below the current close price.

Steve...

AC wasn't mentioned in the PDF as an exit criterion. It's only AO or PSAR.
Cheers. That was a misprint - didn't code an AC closure. I will go back and edit the post.

Looking forward to seeing what I can learn from your offering.

Steve,

Do you have a setting primer on your EA. I'm not that up on EA and I have no idea what some of your setting mean. Can you help a newbie out.

Thanks

Hi Steve & Ronald, thanks heaps to you both for the work on your ea's, look very tidy.
I have loaded 2 of each on 4 pairs in total, that looked like they may be getting closed for 4H signals. All have different magic numbers.
I put all lots at 0.02, but looks like I should have left Ronalds at 0.01 as it does 2 seperate buys on usdchf & 2 seperate sells on gpbusd. Was aiming for .01 per action. minior for me to fix later.

Steve, The comments on the usdjpy buy says "needs alteration", do I need to be setting part of the trade?

Thanks heaps also to Ash for his system, reading thru the earlier thread currently - will take a while.

cheers all

Just an FYI. I started testing Ronald's ea on 4H and Daily - 4 paairs with different magic numbers. I've had several trades on the 4 hour but I also get 2 trades per signal.

Thanks Ash, Steve and RR

Hi Sandy, By the look of Ronalds ea code, thats what he intended, its just that I loaded Steve's 1st & was thinking "now maybe cant see if this will TP on half unless it starts with at least 0.02 lots".
What pairs did you get the trades for & when.
I have RRs ea on GBPUSD with sell at 1.4410 & USDCHF with buy at 1.1260 both after the 0800 bar signal on 20Mar. yea I know its late on Fri, but wanted to see ea action to learn more.
mmm might try a picky, (did it once before).

Yes, my EA is designed to give two trades/signal. I designed it so that in the event of a power-outage, or computer reset, or other dangerous situation ,my EA can recover completely and know exactly where it left off.

I personally find it easier just splitting an order into multiple trades than trying to get one large trade and split that into smaller trades. It's a personal programming preference.

I tried visually testing the EA and there seems to be problems with the first order? It should only be closed if we are in profit ...

I missed what your were getting at, SwingMan, until I saw my ea open a trade with the candle the wrong colour. I have added the necessary code.

I have also added a Volumes filter, using insight gained from the VSA threads. If UseVolume is set to true, the EA checks that market volume has been rising over the previous two candles before placing the trade. The default is false, as this is not part of Ash's strategy.

There were a couple of inputs in the first ea that were not used by the robot. I simply forgot to delete these when I adapted my EA template, and have been removed.

When the trades go in, do you put your own SL and TP or will the EA do it for you. Or please explain how it works. Thats the ASHFX VERSION 11 am talking about
