Could you pls share a chart with the indicators you are using for the EA with the entry points so that we can try following it.

If you are not using any charts, pls explain in plain words so that we can do the coding

Thanks.
Already posted. But again...

Just Renko + Sinc Cycle. Then tweak the SC for correct Nitro entries (as per Edge's charts). Everyone's settings will be slightly different for the reasons explained by Paradoxical and others in the last day or two.

Then look at position, velocity and acceleration. If you want to write "wrapper" indys it is easy as there is only one buffer in SC with a real number in every position.

Edge will not put the whole thing on a platter for everyone and nor will I. I have spent hundreds of hours (literally) on this and am trying to "earn" my success. Please just do the same. You plan to make a living from this. I spent 11 years at University to get to a position where I can apply my knowledge to this subject, with some obvious success. You cannot get a "profession" overnight - it must be the result of a great deal of personal effort.

Some of these threads and strategies can be a little intimidating for non-programmers. Hang in there non-techies, sometimes things are not as complicated as they seem.

For example, I would guess the standard Stochastic indicator in MT4 would perform comparably to the TG-Sinc-Spectrum-Cycle indicator.

If the issue is giving it away for free I totally understand that. I for one cannot sit in front of a computer 24/7. I have no idea how to code. I have read this thread for day one till now. I feel I have good grasp on basics. If someone codes for a fee pm me, I have no problem paying for anything. I'm just saying if you're not going to make something available in some form or another quit talking about how great it is.

Isn't there a thread called "My ea is better than your ea", some where?
I'd put my ea up against tg's any day of the week.

just kidding............ no Pms please......about my top secret ea society...

Seriously though:
I try not to post results from ea's testing since Edge has stated many times
that isn't the topic of this thread, I think TG is just trying to encourage us to all go study math and coding or something like that.......

Could there be a typo in the sheet:
at 30/07 03:30 a sell was entered at 1.40469, but the trade still had a T/P at 1.40575 (altho with a negative profit). I've never seen that happen before, but I'm not an expert.
Hmmmm... perhaps a small bug-let in the code? I admit setting a negative TP is rather eccentric... Even for me! LOL!

My broker changed from 4 digit to 5 digit on Sunday evening and has wreaked a bit of havoc. Have had to go back and amend old code for 5 digit stuff now....

Why not? A stochastic is only a differentiating oscillator that extracts the main cycle of the price. Could be just as good or better than SC....?

There is not a single trade on GU in my results. And only one experimental one on UJ. All my trades are currently on EU for reasons Swingman has explained in several posts.

what am I missing on your posted chart here?
The way I see the trades, you have 12 trades marked on your chart.
Trades 3,5,6,8,9 and 10 seem to be losers. If you are entering at the close of the bar, you aren't getting anything out of those, and taking at least a 20pip SL.
Apparently I am missing something major.


Quoting Edgetrader
Couple of points to consider Ian which might be of some benefit.

'Nitro' is designed at a TP of +5 as opposed to +10.

SL at -20 is ok and can mangae trades a bit tighter I would think.

Too much faith put into the diamonds as Swingman has mentioed his Renko work is not complete.

EU is not a Nitro pair of choice.

I have watched this pair also and tested it pretty thoroughly. Even at that, the last 24 hours or so show it at around 11-1 at designed levels on even the MT4 (ref: chart).

Regards.

Well, "you know who" did challenge me to put my money where my mouth is.... LOL!!

Up nearly 30% in under 24 hours. Even the one that hit the trailing stop managed a few pips!

We are approaching 100% success rate asymptotically.

michaelhryu,

Take a look at this post.

It might help you when to initiate the trade.

I like your DXTrade C4 indi a lot.

When exactly do I enter a position under the DXTrade C4 indicator? Should I initiate a trade as soon as the arrow appears ot the next Renko brick after the arrow?

Anne's post give many of us the drive to keep working on understanding this methodology. Just as Edge has done since day one.

It makes us all think and learn...knowing what is possible
But...not having it handed to us.

Through that process we become better traders. Knowing why we take the trades we do.

I am not a coder. I see the value in learning to identify setups and trading them. I have taken All the valuable information from this thread and applied it to my own trading. Learning along the way.
I am a better, more consistent trader than I was 3 weeks ago.

I see the potential in what we have been given. The simplicity of 'less is more.
Do your own due diligence. read and understand the information we are given and apply it to your own trading style.

This thread is truly a gift.

Greg
