Indrek, is this condition considering a BUY?
(look where vertical blue line is) Thanks.

BTW that label which suppose to show Market Price (top right corner) , don't work for some reason
No, this is not an entry point for me as H1 does not match with the signal.

Hi Indrek..

When you say it doesn't match are you saying that H1 is not green and is not the same color of the 15M?

Exactly. But in the other thread I have the system a bit different - primer for M15 chart is H4 not H1.

Monday results....

Manual trading pushing the plunger with my finger...and following the 1st post original trading plan.
(yes...i'm developing an EA but this doesn't mean that i don't focus on manual trades...one thing doesn't excludes the other...)

I'm still experimenting with updatepips EA to find the better money management for the trades.

My pips results are for:

30% of the lots / 30% of the lots / 30% of the lots

I was wondering if someone could take a look at my chart and see if I am doing it correctly. Also, I had a few questions:

1. Do I reverse a trade if I get another signal going the opposite way? (a few trades did this to me today and I did reverse them which saved me a few pips)
2. Are the trades below correct?

My start time was an hour earlier then what Edge suggested, but I just want to make sure that I am getting the primer and detonator interpreted right. Thanks for any help.

Blue lines are wins and Maroon lines are are a loss.

Not so clear to me....

Cannot share renko indicator because it is commercial...(understandable)

Is TG C4 commercial too? The information about the MA commercial too?

Request was for indicators and template.

WHY DOES ONE HAVE TO EARN THIS? All other ideas and indicators are shared freely and to all members without earning......

What exactly does EARN mean in this context?

Thanks,

Edge do you answer for other programmers on the thread too?...
Could care less what programmers do. They are of course welcome to follow the thread and take what they want back to the lab, but that should be about the extent of it. Thread is designed for trading, any thing else does not belong here.

As for Pip Chaser's question, it would have been better to read the thread. Never has anyone posted a Renko template. As for indicators, it is a MA available anywhere on any platform and with any brokerage.

Also, PS stated that they wanted to TRADE renko. Fine, as with everyone else, a posting some time ago gave the location where to PURCHASE such. Anne, in a subsequent posting, even gave the location again.

Not really interested in your ongoing sewing circle crap with her. Has no place here. It is apparent you each have your own ways, whether or not her tone seems condescending to you is not relevant. You can simply place her on 'ignore' and be done with it.

So, yes, if PS wants to trade Renko, then go EARN it. Buy the thing and start trading it.

As to your subsequent posting, no, everyone is not equal here. Having no idea of you chosen field of medicine, I do know that a first year med student certainly is not equal to one with a PhD in the field.

That said, those who do not trade for a living are not yet equal to me, or any other trader that does. As with medicine, you can either practice the profession full time and competently, or you flunk out and move on. Either field is no place for hobbyist's. Many here are simply learning as best they can in the hopes of getting to that level.

Lastly, my relationship with Anne is my own business. Those who care to speculate that I am somehow enamored with her being educated and female are engaging unsubstantiated speculation. In all honesty, for a PhD to do so is well beneath your standard of professionalism and is not appreciated at all.

If folks here want to trade, or gather some info that might help them do so, that is fine as it is the threads purpose. Anything else is secondary and barely merit mention until someone airs it publicly.

Now, back to trading.

Have managed some pretty good +5's today. Mentioned over the weekend that the C4 explosion was not pip oriented, it is trading account oriented and I like the less is more philosophy.

So, perhaps it merits consideration on your part to take a closer look at the plan and see how things slowly start making a bit of sense as we start the second week of this.

Have seen a few excellent chart shot posting and those are much appreciated. Good effort of those and stick with it.

As shown, it would not have taken very long to get a pip count easily reaching goals of +2% to account value. Just have to trade appropriate lot sizing depending on your account value. Mentioned over the weekend that a $10k account needed to net 40 pips at 0.5 lot sizing to gain 2% ($200). These charts are showing such, and a tad more. Not alot of market exposure time involved, so risk is somewhat diminished.

PA was a bit un-nerving at times as the pairs faced minor fundamentals and was choppy, but again the TRIX comes through. I do like the 15m MTF for additional confirmation and think all you trading this should incorporate it into your charts and trading efforts. It is located in the thread and pretty easy to find. Thanks to 'Swingman' for his efforts in this regard.

Regards.

Charts with indi's look good.

Would add the MTF and trade with trend. Set MTF to 15M.

Indi attached.

An aquired taste, very effective trading with the MTF in addition though.

Normal candle tend to make some even more jumpy as it bounces up and down.

Causes early entry and exit at times.

Thanks for the clarification what you meant by EARN... You mean BUY the renko chart.

well here's what I'm watching. 2 versions, 1 my regular set up, 1 the mtf version. Not trading today, will be trading live tonight. just very busy weekend and was not focused so just watching PA and the signals today. I really haven't made a choose yet on which version. My 55 guppy MA was my directional indication or 15m Trix. I'll just have to watch them and see what speaks to me more.

I have probably missed something obvious in all this but I have a question on chart set up. Why do we have both the smC4ScaperCandles and the smSuperTrix? These seem to signal exactly the same.

Back on track this week.
Blowing things up as prescribed

Monday results

10 trades
9 wins 1 loss
+ 60 pips

Had to step away from my computer so I just set a 30 s/l on the few trades that were open. Hence the one loss for 30

Missed the trades at around 11:20. I wasn't at my computer then. Would have been an extra 40 pips!!

Edge,

Thanks for your on going commitment and patience. Have been watching and finding what i am comfortable with and am planning on trading this week as per original rules on 5M in direction of 30M and 1H.

Primer cross of 14MA
Detonator 5M Trix and/or Colour Ventana change

Goal 5 pips per trade. -25 S/L.

I cant understand the general desire to achieve 100pips a trade....it would be great however a strong believer that 5 pips is ALL THAT IS EVERY GOING TO BE NEEDED to achieve all goal. 5 pips at $100 or 100 pips at $5 ..... much rather be in the trade for the 10 mins to get the 5 pips as apposed to the 1/2/3 hours/days to get the 100.

Attached is an AUD/USD example.

Thanks again for all the helpful input from everyone. Lets try and keep the teacher happy from now on and do as suggested, trade this week getting the basics set in stone.

Please feel free to comment, suggest or advice

Thanks again
Waddij

It seems that the 'guppy' would do quite well in a trending market as does trix.

15m MTF might be better if a trader wants a few pips here and there. Obviously, a few more signals are generated, but many seem to like the action at the table a bit more.

In the long run, both would produce and either accommodates an aggressive or conservative style.

Regards.
