The TG HV just turned blue. Indicating a move upwards. The TM was still blue after a quick pullback. All 4 bars on the TG HG are blue. Entry valid.

Entry @ 1.6358
SL @ 1.6307 for a risk of 50 pips
TP @ 1.6468 for a reward of 110 pips. This equals a R:R of 1:2.16

TP was placed a few pips under last swing high @ 1.6472.

Daily chart is in uptrend so this is inline with the overall trend.
Here is the update from this earlier trade.
TP was hit for 110 pips.

Just a quick update, this is where the test account posted yesterday ended up for the day.

I don`t have the detailed trades since the first update but the trades were GBPUSD short.
I can't believe how much crap I have to read until I get to a post where someone is actually working to better this system.

Your testing data looks good. 0% drawdown, that's a first.

It is looking good so far but the testing data represents only 1 trading day on this account.

The other 2 started on Monday is running at 90%. Approximately 9% return per day.

It is too early to jump to conclusions but hopefully something useful can be gained after 20-30 trading days.

All,

Here is an updated version of the Vorticity indy.

The current indy does not have "bugs". it is just the way it works. It uses the old Lanczos "differentiation under the integral sign" trick to achieve integration (smoothing) of the derivative (momentum).

The window is set to 5 so it takes samples (t-2), (t-1), (t), (t+1), (t+2).

There is therefore a 2 bar "lookahead".

I think I am right when I say that I can guarantee the indy cannot repaint more than 2 previous bars.

Anyway, try it. You can always go back in the...

I have seen so many different charts and indicators for this system, I dread to look for the system indicators.

Could some kind soul post the indicators, preferably with a template and the entry and exit rules, briefly.

Thanks in advance.

All,

Here is my brief attempt to define entry rules. This has only been tested on the hourly charts. I have used it for the past couple of days and it has successfully filtered false signals.

EURUSD hourly chart (Daily chart is in an uptrend)

TM = Trend Magic
HV = Hydrodynamic Vorticity

Entry rules:
Long
HV turns blue. Wait for TM to turn blue. Enter long.
Short
HV turns red. Wait for TM to to turn red. Enter short

Aggressive traders may enter when HV changes color and not wait for the TM to catch up. However, you will be subject to more false signals.

Number Comment

 

  1. HV turned red. TM is still blue. No signal
  2. HV turns blue. TM still blue. Enter long
  3. HV turns red. TM still blue. Exit long or hold (preferable)
  4. HV turns blue. TM still blue. Enter long or add to existing order
  5. HV turns red. TM still blue. Exit or hold.
  6. HV turns blue. TM still blue. Enter
  7. HV turns red. TM turns red. Exit all longs. Open short (counter trend trade. Daily is up so your trading against the trend. keep profit targets short or use HV to exit. When HV turns blue exit counter trend trades)
  8. HV turns blue. TM still red. Exit short trade
  9. HV turns red. TM turns red. Enter short.
  10. HV turns blue. TM still red. Exit short.
  11. HV is already blue so there is no 11 there. However,TM has now caught up to the HV and changed blue. Enter.
  12. HV turns red. TM still blue. No signal for entry
  13. HV turns blue. TM turns blue. Enter long
  14. HV turns red. TM still blue. Exit partial order or hold.
  15. HV turns blue. TM still red. No signal.
  16. HV turns red. TM still red. Enter short. (small profit target)
  17. HV turns blue. TM still red. Exit short. No long entry.
  18. HV turns red. TM turns red. Enter short.

When HV and TM change color at the same time (i.e. 18) the
price move is very powerful.

First time poster and I must say, Paulus and TudorGirl, bravo! Many thanks to you both, and to the many others in this thread for their brainstorming and all-around collective knowledge in Forex trading. You all have out-done yourselves.

My trading strategy is simple.

I use HG, HG MTF, TM, and the new Vorticity.

Entries are very similar to Paulus' but I use the main bar (HG) for entry, along with a 5m, 15m and/or 30m MTF with the same color to confirm.

Exits have been tricky and I have come up with a couple strategies based on how conservative...
I agree 100% I see it repaint a few times this Morning but its great for exits and trend change warnings but its not a signal to trade. My exits are done with Semafor, been great so far. Cannot believe the Day when I would be worried about exits! TG & P rule the forum boards !!!!!

I mentioned recently that the pattern on the HGMTF reminded me of the old space invaders arcade game.

It was half in jest but there is no reason why a trend pattern shouldn't be a signal.

A similar pattern occurred today on the beast and the same price behaviour occurred, a decent climb up.

I'll keep an eye on it and see if there's any way it can be used...
