Thanks for your patience and assistance so far fxScavenger. When I get home from work today I will modify the EA to allow externally configurable timezone without needing to modify the source and provide to you around this time tomorrow.

Wish I could do it myself but appreciate your help very much.
Allowing users to manually adjust timezone would be helpfull.

Also access to MM parameters would help as well:
Static/Automatic Lot Sizing

I have scripts I use for placing orders that automatically determine lot size based on % of equilty available. Would be a handy feature for the EA.

I have coded this feature already. You can see the difference in equity curves between MM and no MM for one trade set (Picset 2 vs Picset 5). But I am not ready to provide the EA source to people until I am sure it is finished and I am sure it is correct (like I said twice already). Please do not make feature requests until the EA is released properly.

I will continue to liase with fxScavenger and any others who are willing to backtest for now. The goal is to provide a 100% dynamic EA which should backtest well from the beginning of EURJPY data (1999).

Hi new guys,

I believe what Vic is trying to teach us is How to Optimize our Entry on the lowest timeframe possible. On the M5 TF a 2 or 3 candle reversal is no big deal.

On the W1, unless your one of the BigBoyzzzz as Vic calls them, you will "Die The Death of a Thousand Negative Pips".

Read the first few posts it is all explained there. And should you be wise enough to read the whole thread, you will gain a multi dimensional viewpoint.

The Warriors will say the same things over and over but in a different way each time. And all these different ways form something that becomes a reality. The difference is say, someone trying to explain to you the texture and taste of an apple and actually having one in your hand and taking a bite of it. I'm not kidding.

Thank You to Vic and all you Kumo Warriors. For teaching me how to Trade. I thought I was one, little did I know.

Hi drwasho, do you remember I spoke about during periods of financial stress in the markets that USD and gold will become correlated (and I mean, truly correlated, not the "inverse correlation" which you like).

I feel that we are entering one of those periods again beginning from today. We can watch what happens from now on. Gold will move up in sync (on the higher TFs) with USDJPY and USDCHF I think.

Yes I do remember.. we'll see what happens. I do think something tumultuous will happen in the markets in the next couple of months, there's just that feeling. How the USD and gold will perform will be interesting to watch. I think there's a greater chance of the USD gaining some value in another major move, and the gold price dropping down marginally. I would be very surprised in the next few months to see the price of gold rise with the dollar in a very clear way.

I do expect at some future date that a major devaluation of the dollar will occur and thus the gold price will skyrocket as a result... but whether that happens this year or next 5 years is something I don't know.

Ive been trading gold since 8 months now..only recently moved to fx. From my personal judgement (based on a lot of things) Gold will correct majorly.
gold historically has hit 1000+ 3 times before this. with the max being 1024
and then has corrected an average 75-90$
Altho this time i am not looking at sub 950's i am still looking at 960-70 as the range it should be down to.

just my view

The correct should be to 975 then up for true break of 1000 (on the weekly). I have been saying this for a week now.

No. What are you basing that on? There is no Ichi signal that I can see on any TF.

I agree that this is more likely to occur before gold leaves $1000 as a support level. I personally expect to see a rally in the dollar, modest decline in gold and another drop in equities in the next few months. Not sure how severe though.

God bless,

Jut some thoughts on the NZD/USD.

Caveat - I'm not a Kumo Warrior, just a Soldier.

well there is no full signal.. but M1, m5, m15, m30 are all downwards... and it just broke the kumo on 1h..which also happens to be the 200EMA on m30.. so just wanted an opinion!

Looks good.
How do you measure your over-boughtness or oversold? Just based on price action over past weeks/months or are you using stochs and/or bollingers to guide?
Hi mate,

Measure it based on RSI combined with COT and SSI readings. SSI is something that I get through my old FXCM account showing their nett positioning for retail and speculative traders in all their traded pairs.

SSI is a contrarian indicator and if you haven't seen it before kind of crudely implies that once the large players notice that all the small ones are feeding on their latest rally, that it will likely reverse - smart money has a harsh way of dealing with those caught in the top end of a rally.

Cheers

That short is only supported by TFs up to 1 hour... if you want to roll the dice on this one, have fun, but I'd set a < 30 pip T/P and look to place a break-even S/L after 10-15 pips just to be safe.

God bless,

This is definitely not how to trade using Ichimoku and doing so will guaranteed blow your account.

Time for you to go back to page 1 and start reading I think

Hi 4xAddict, hope you are well, someone here mentioned ballooning kumo on high TF as a good oversold/overbought indicator I like that idea very much.
