I am joining the testing of your notion, aiccia.
but my out of the box experience has it working
fine on M5 but on no other TF.

Any ideas? I'd like to get it onto M1 as you mention.

I just spent some time with carmen. shes great! I've made 400 pips on my demo account since I downloaded it. Seems like a good indicator, but i had some problems with it that maybe you can help me with. On the 5M chart the white line crossed the yellow line and I went short.

After that I opened a second chart, went to 1M, and loaded carmen. In the new chart the white line hadn't even crossed the blue line!?!

I'm not sure what caused. Any ideas?

Oh and thanks for the holy grail~!

EDIT: got 1.03

you're fast! =P

Yes I do have an idea of what caused that. It's not a bug though, the indicator is working properly.

No..U misunderstand my words.

What i mean is that there is no indicator show on my MT4 Chart.

I cant find your indicator ( After opening of MT4 ).

Even though i have put it at the correct place, expert => indicators folder.

I think i am too dumb here....Sorry.

If your MT4 is already opened and running, you have to shut it down and restart again. Hopefully you can find this inducator after that.

Thanks for your reply.

I have tried and it doesnt work and also i have tried Re-Install the MT4 Software. Both cant work.

I am sure indicators with .ex4 extension can work for me.
Unfortunatly this indicator is in mq4 extension.

If anyone can help, a thousands THANKS to you in advance...

you have to compile it. After you put it in the indicator folder do this:

1)Open up MetaEditor.
2)Open up the indicator in MetaEditor (File, Open, ect)
3)Look at the top of MetaEditor, there will be a toolbar and on the toolbar will be a button named "Compile". Click the button. It should now show up on Metatrader.

Also, make sure that you are looking for it in the "Custom Indicators" folder. In MT4 there is "Navigator" window and there you can see the list like this:
Accounts
Indicators
Custom Indicators
Scripts

Carmen indi should be found in the "Custom Indicators" folder. If you saved it to the right place, it must be there.

I spent months developing this system...
May I ask you how do you deal with ranging periods like the one on the image? I counted like 12 - 15 not very good trades that can add up to 150 - 200 pips loss. Do you wait for big trend? These occur every once in a while and may wipe out profits made on bigger moves...

I make 100 pips on previous bigger move, then lose 150, then make 100, then lose 100, ...

Edit: The same period but M5 timeframe looks like is not that bad (second image). So, it looks like we should not go down to M1, right? I am confused a bit since you said TF does not matter...

Hi Aicccia,

it is incredible your indicator, I think it is something very impressive.
I rarely write on this forum even if I've been looking at it for years: this time I can't only watching.

My sincere congratulations to you and you aknowledge.


I am testing it on 1 min TF, trying to find the best settings.

I think that it is interesting even watch the white line that touch the two coloured like a channel, maybe in rangins markets it is useful:
open LONG when touch the below up and close when touch the up down, open SELL when touch the upper from up and close when touch the below from down.

I noticed that if I wait both the lines to be crossed I often close in pair or loss a very good trend, but maybe are just my settings, you are the absolute leader of this system and I will stick to your rules in case.


The very important thing to me is that this indicator looks Perfect for building an EA.
I think an EA could massimize the potential of Carmen, expecially thinking about Trailing stop function together with Stop Loss, related to the Rules you stated before.

Very thanks again,
I will look forward to see improvements and test it.

thanks again,
iopoipoi
