The program is OK. (Your change in the source code is not necessarily a solution).
Try with refreshing of the historical data with Tools/History Center.

Hi All,

I've read about 50% of the thread, and I have not been able to find a specific answer to my question... I apologize if this had been discussed elsewhere on the forum but I haven't been able to find it.

I know the Trend Magic is calculated as follows:
CCI(50) + ATR(5) when price moving DOWN,
CCI(50) - ATR(5) when price moving UP.

I don't understand however, how it is specifically calculated. Is the 5atr added to the cci, and the bar is blue if cci is above this number? and vice versa for red bar? I'm confused specifically how the colour of the bar is decided upon

I do not like the fact that it repaints, and I'd like to recode it for myself (and anyone else interested) so that it does not repaint. I don't see why it should repaint if its a basic cci and atr calculation at a given point in time (it shouldn't have to look back).

Thanks in advance
D

For me is only 50 pips per day.

The thing is that my only enemy is ME... When I see the price going in the other way ... I am loosing control ...
So i just decresed my pip value...I hope I will be able do become more disciplined couse I think this is the secret of a succesful trader.

Kos, please keep posting thouse charts couse I think soon they will be more people who will trade like you do

Have pips !

I thought it was tidied up to where it didn't repaint, sure you got the latest version?

Did you try a 14 linear weighted MA? Pretty much the same thing.

Is there a standard piece of code that you or I can add to Adaptive RSI to make it MTF?

In the function init this:
init{switch(TimeFrame)

case 1 : string TimeFrameStr="Period_M1"; break;
case 5 : TimeFrameStr="Period_M5"; break;
case 15 : TimeFrameStr="Period_M15"; break;
case 30 : TimeFrameStr="Period_M30"; break;
case 60 : TimeFrameStr="Period_H1"; break;
case 240 : TimeFrameStr="Period_H4"; break;
case 1440 : TimeFrameStr="Period_D1"; break;
case 10080 : TimeFrameStr="Period_W1"; break;
case 43200 : TimeFrameStr="Period_MN1"; break;
default : TimeFrameStr="Current Timeframe";
}

In start this:
int start()
{
datetime TimeArray[];
int i,limit,y=0,counted_bars=IndicatorCounted();
// Plot defined time frame on to current time frame
ArrayCopySeries(TimeArray,MODE_TIME,Symbol(),TimeFrame);
limit=Bars-counted_bars;
for(i=0,y=0;i<limit;i++)
{
if (Time[i]<TimeArray[y]) y++;
your code here now=icustom(NULL,TimeFrame,"Yourindi",a,b,c,0,i); etc etc

Hi Guys and Gals

I am looking at a programmer who can do the programming ( i am dumb in programming ) to work with me to create a EA which will take the Pivots and 200 EMA as the base to take the trades. We need to do lots of live forward testing to create what i am looking for. So anyone interested message me here and we can carry it on further and then present it to this wonderful community.

Markets may change but pivots and the direction shown by 200 ema never fails. This will be a indicator free method, already documented on FF.

So guys and gals, come on lets rock this market. just have a look at this equity curve, in one months time of using this, we can make very handsome results without going more then max 5% of equity risk on all trades.

SwingMan, I can't thank you enough.

I've had the indi on three M5 charts overnight and it works (no repainting). I don't know how you've done it, but smFisherTransform3nr indicator is just what I had hoped for. You are a MASTER.

Many, many, thanks. Regards, Richard.

Try this version.

It is the same solution as for the other "no repaint" indicators of today, but some user say the indi is repainting, others that not...

45Fxguy,
The Trix used here is the one posted by Edgetrader. Settings are as posted. Color is matter of choice. I think it too early to justify posting a templet...as I mentioned, I'm going to test this first.
If it proves useful, I'll gladely share all settup ctriteria. Gotta prove it first.
Please do not trade this settup with real money!!!
!Ciao! for now.

Your staying power here on this thread is to be commended.
Ol' Yipper was put on my ignore list mos-cosh, without delay. I use it extensively here on th FF. Helps keep my attention where it belongs...adapting, testing, implementing new trade ideas that appear to have merit. Disregarding those that do not pan out.

Really appreciate that Paulus, Anne, yourself, SwingMan, to name just a few of those that have contributed so much of their time and guidance.
Granted, it must be frustrating at times. There are those here that do pickup what you...
Cliff,

Excellent setup here. Has ability use Trix as an exit strategy upon exhaustion. Lots of folks looking for a good SL area and this is really a nice addition.

Let me know either here or PM how this is working out.

http://www.forexfactory.com/images/icons/icon14.gif New Indicator! Yay I'm Gay

Posted 6 hr ago
Ok class. Well kids it looks like we must modify our lovely system. Edgetrader is really mad and upset that his system isnt working. Sorry Edgeman. Anyway, I have a new indicator coming soon. You see its really easy and I think we all can make about 1000 pips per week no problem.

I wonder what happened to that highly profitable and accurate method sweetpea was trading earlier. Was that the one where he was pumping 20 lot trades into it and barely breaking even?

Wow, now an indi that will make 1000 pips per week. Perhaps sweetpea will be able to expand his contracting business all the way to TWO cleaning crews now.

Retirement is IMMINENT!!


In the meantime, we have to live with our meager means to survive. Got pummeled today and only closed out at +36. These 1 1/2 hour work days are just brutal.

Regards.

Hi SwingMan, lele

Appreciate your efforts in trying to get a non-repainting Fisher/Scalping/Vorticity (all the same code anyway!!)

As a coder myself, I fully appreciate your comment that even a 1 line change can make all the difference. You are right there!

From what I see, all you have changed is, instead of having limit=Bars you have limit=200, and also you changed

for (i=limit; i>=0; i--) to
for (i=0; i<limit; i++)

in one place, and vice versa in another. The rest of the guts of the code looks the same to me.

Are you claiming that just changing the order of the iteration can fix the repainting? If so, this is a useful discovery!! Or is the fix more subtle than that??

Thanks a lot

CB

Hi Swingman, TudorGirl

Have been silently following this thread since inception.

All these indicators repaint up to 5 to 7 bars. I have attached your indicator modified to keep track of last two finished bars to see if they repaint.

Main indicator line is at Zero.

The two Blue and Red lines above and below the main indicator keeps track of repaints of the bars 1 and 2, zero being the current bar.


There are times when the indicator does not repaint. These usually are the extreme points - for swing trading - on the curve and probably needs additional study.

Every tick requires the entire series to be recalculated hence the repaint.
As you have done in your version, you have limited the recalculation to, I believe 100 bars including the current bar and in your fixed version modified the constants from 0.33 to 0.25 etc.

By observing the fxfariz indi in window 1 in real time, the repaint issues can probably be reduced if you take the 3,5 or 7 SMA of the ExtBufffer0 and use the following logic.

If ExtBufffer0>0 && Avg>0 && ExtBufffer0<avg then Long
If ExtBufffer0<0 && Avg<0 && ExtBufffer0>avg then Short

Ofcourse this also means we are introducing a lag in the signal. But then the real time signal repaints, hence it is a trade off.

There maybe a transition period between these two states and I have not had a chance to observe or program that.

Another option is to count the number of times the ExtBufffer0 switches from positive to negative or the number of times the current prev logic is executed during the current bar and using a threshold of some sort to determine the state of the indicator since the current value is dependant on the previous values of the indi.(0.66*ExtBufffer0+Fish etc etc.)

Finally, the vaue of ExtBufffer0 for the last tick of the current bar need to be explored further.

The indicator does have value and its properties and characteristics needs to be harnessed for effective use in trading.

Hope this helps.
