For those of you who are still using the C4 program (like myself), I came up with a way to improve "seeing" the price action and anticipate the price moves. Basically, I created both an M1 and an M5 chart for each currency I watch and set all the indi's identically. I don't trade on the one minute chart, I only use it to identify how strong the price action is prior to the signals appearing on the 5 minute chart. It has really helped to eliminate false signals and it helps if you wish to re-enter for additional pips on retracements.

Below is...
I have been doing the same with a standard 10 pip Nitro setup with parallel 1 or 5 pip Renko bricks to monitor PA. It's very useful to see how PA is moving and fine tune entry and exits.

When you trade, repeat constantly the "OM mani padme hum" mantra, and after few weeks you can note the first changes in your trading (hopefully positive...).

Ah, OK. More MT4 repainting issues surface.

Back to the SM indi it is then. One of those things simply has to be effective to some extent.

Has anyone done any MT4 backtesting with the SM indi? Might help solidify it as the optimum indi for this MT4 Renko stuff.

Will delete recent postings until you folks finish looking at the indi further.

Regards.

While I do my best to not post anything indicator related, I have been looking into using a Hull MA that does not seem to repaint during live use. I have been observing it for 6 months and have not visualy seen it do it myself so I think it is safe. The settings that seem to work well with Renko are the folliwng: 9,2,3 true,2,0

I never said the Renko repainted, please read the post I quoted. The MA with applied price seems to repaint.

Yes, for those that want to keep the screen clean and have just the MA line, the Hull I posted replaces the 8 or 12 lwa.

Sure, it may repaint constantly on the CURRENT bar until it goes +10 or -10 beyond the previous bar.

Bars already established in Renko NEVER repaint.

Mombone, are your settings preset to 'live' trading when you put the Renko on the M1 chart?

Right,

Have had a couple of losses so want to talk them through.

As others have stated i used the close of the renko above the MA as the primer and the change in the colour of the MA as the trigger.

Took 2 trades as per the above. Both candles then dropped 20 pips forming a new renko and the ma changed back into the opposite colour.

Edge, anyone..... am i doing this wrong.

I appreciate the ma changed accoding to the price .... is there something i should be watching out for?

Also, my trix bars are normal colour, not the trix red and blue ones. I have swingmans latest smRenko Signals v2.1. Which is the trix on for the renko please, the name would be great so i can get it from the attachments.

Thanks

Correction, what are your presets on the Renko. If PA is moving and blocks are not building only two things are possible. Block size is not set at 10 or PA is not moving far enough to build a 10 tic block.
