Thank you Aicccia!
I can't believe how even more fantastic this new version is at catching the trends, keeping you in, and minimizing losses during ranging.
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.

Sir Viver.

Thank you aiccia,
It just keeps getting better and better when you didn't think it could!
The new indicator looks great and captures what you have been talking about from the beginning. I for one, and I think I can speak for others, really, really appreciate all the hard work and tireless effort that you have continued to put into this indicator from the beginning to help so many others trade. Sometimes on the FF threads, some people lose sight of that wonderful quality. thanks once again.

I can't say it any better than TraderDp did. I loved 2.1 but I am really getting my jollies out of 3.1. A straight EA on this would be fabulous. This is good enough, I believe, to rename it to Aiccia's Indicator. Please add my thanks and appreciation to those many others whom you are assisting toward financial independence.

This indicator gives a different perspective to the charts, a very simplistic approach, I like it. Keeping things simple can help many traders from excessive micromanaging. Many thanks aicccia for your hard work!

A lot of people have already shown their appreciation, and after looking on todays GBPUSD 1min chart with carmen's eyes I totally understand why. You have done a lot of work but the result is AWESOME.
I can't wait to go live on monday with this little jewel.
THANK YOU

This is my indicator.

Her name is Carmen and her goal is to have small to zero losses in ranging markets and then make a killing on trends.

Carmen has the simplicity of a moving average system where trades open and close on MA crosses.

When the white line is above the yellow and blue lines, BUY.
Then when the white lines falls below the yellow and blue lines, close the buy and SELL.
Then when the white lines rises back above the yellow and blue lines, close the sell and BUY again.

But unlike MA crossover systems,...

Hi Acccia.

V 3.1, cant wait to try it out on Monday. I've been out of town last week and just downloaded it now.

Once again, many many thanks for your generosity Acccia, I hope that in return I may assist in any way that I can.

Cheers

Hi all
I would like to know yellow and blue moving average algorithm for that?
What you mean? It's an open source (.mq4) and, if like to know

algorithm, all you have to do just read the code!

Hi all, hi aicccia,

just found this indicator and i am amazaed how good it works.

Great work and thanks for sharing it with the community!

I tested this indicator on M1, M5, M15 and it seems to work on all TF
very well.

Nevertheless i have some questions:

1) Which timeframes do you all use usually?
2) If you buy a position, do you take profits after a certain amount of pips or do you let the complete position run until you reverse from Long to Short or Short to Long?
3) Do you switch the position from Long to Short or vice versa after the candle crosses the Blue AND Yellow line or exactle from the moment, the white line crosses these both Lines?
4) Do switch positons exactly in the moment, the white line indicates to, or do you wait until the candle is finished?

Best regards

Hi aicccia,

Thanks for sharing the great indi. Just wondering if you can add sound alert on the indi? Until someone (most likely yourself) create the EA, this sound will be a good assistant so we don't have to watch the monitor all the time. Thanks

Regards,
Jidonk

Hi all,

I will like to suggest that when anyone see a set up, it shld be posted. This will keep this thread much more active, it will also give you the opportunity for someone else to analyse ur trade and finally, it will help newbies get a good hang of the system. Its always easy to look hindsight and see great setup...but remember, hindsight cant pay the bill.

A classical example was someone showing the long on GU on Fri as it happened. I was not looking at GU, but when the person mentioned it, I chked my GU and I was able to get it close to the breakout.

This will help keep the thread much more alive until the EA is finally released.

What do you all think about this idea???

You have to read post #1 at least

Recommended TF is 1min for earlier and accurate entry

that's why your other questions do not apply in 1m TF.

Also that's why many of us do not open their own thread, because

it's like: give me a food, give me a spoon, give me a bread.

Aicccia, give us many great Indicator, which he spends many working hours

on, all you have to do download it and READ few pages of this thread,

before you post, because most of the questions already answered on page

Period.

Skyzer,

thank you for your reply to my post.

I read until page 11, but i couldnt figur out the question when to enter
- directly by crossing or
- after candle close

this is what the first post tells me:

"Then when the white lines rises back above the yellow and blue lines, close the sell and BUY again."

nothing mentioned about the entry by waiting till the candle has finished so i guess we enter directly?

I always try to figur out the key points until i ask a question so sorry if i maybe overread this point. Nevertheless it would be nice if you can give me an answer to my question(s)

Question 1-3 are more generally asked, so i wanted to hear what other users use for taking profits. And the question about the timefrage is the same, i know it is a M1 TF setup but maybe other users use this system on other TF, too?

its cool. wait for the candle to close. that's how to know that the cross is real.

and you always want to read the first post, especially after a new version comes out because I may change wording to reflect tweaks in the system's rules.
