Great. Gives me more food for thought. Seems there could be quite a lot to add to the 'proper' robot yet.

You should by now have spotted another obvious trade setup....

- If indicator is OB prior to open then BUY XXXJPY
- If indicator is OS prior to open then SELL XXXJPY

And likewise the same is true for Tokyo close.

I didnt mention this before as I thought it would cause more confusion and i wanted people to see the power of the BOJ interventions, so i have waited until now to tell you this. But I am sure many people have seen this especially if they are in that timezone.

Scoob.

Scoobs, the news filter settings have arrived at 60/30. I feel that 30/30 is sufficient. What do you think?

You have to be careful with this.

If there is HIGH impact news pending then 60/30 should stand. If MEDIUM news then 30/15 is usually ok.

Another reason I set it initially high is that the robot is using FFCal which as you know is not the best indicator in the world.

This is the start of a corker I just received from SS IBFX:

"Interbank FX UK Announces Opening of Office Salt Lake City, November 25, 2009 — Interbank FX UK Ltd, a sister company to leading U.S. off-exchange retail foreign currency (Forex/FX) broker Interbank FX, LLC (www.ibfx.com), announced today the plans to open an office in Central London, aimed to accommodate and better serve the retail FX customer in the UK and Europe."
There is more, but I can't be bothered to read it.

See, they really do hate losing accounts- already chasing their non-US former account holders. Keep on moving your accounts offshore, you US residents, and these fools will drop their NFA crap sooner rather than later.

sorry, daft joke from an old UK sitcom.

No problem

Another problem that I have experienced is my MT4 IBFX crashes all the time...

I have read in first post that IBFX would have their own indicator, but I couldn't find this in zip file indicators...

This is the massage that I get:

Yes... it's oversold and below SMA200... so it's correct following the conditions in Post#1
OK but in my case it was overbought at 90 lowertf and 92 highertf and overbought means buy, except if price is below 200 SMA then we should not buy.
With this conditions it should not bring the Sell alarm.

Hehe. Yes, given some of the early stuff here (from me included) I can see why.

Not going to try to code the stuff tonight - the wine and whisky has been too good - but in time for next week for sure.

So, with the original method you should 95% of the time get 2 trade setups per 24 hours.

I can't keep up with you grr!
I'll try again I guess, as its showing me still 0.4481 and not moving

Make sure you have the latest version. I misunderstood Scoob, again and had the setting too high initially. The latest version shows a much higher correlation result and would allow trading.

I think ottrix is right when the index is in 90 92 it is overbought for the YEN only and not for xxx/jpy, so we have to sell the YEN and to do that we buy the xxx/jpy. I hope I am making sense.

  • Nov 25, 2009 9:02pm Nov 25, 2009 9:02pm
Most of the large JPY moves (indicating extreme JPY strength or weakness) seem to be accompanied by corresponding extreme USD strength or weakness. Rather than attempting to incorporate the USDJPY into the mix, why not simply use the USD (strength / weakness) as a proxy or surrogate for the JPY...to confirm direction? It works for me.
