Hi Jolly,

I use Carmen indy v3.1 as alicia's rules but I just consider one line not the whole channel which is between yellow and blue...

in the attached previous pictures I hide the yellow, orange and red lines and just trade the blue, changing the ema from 3 to 5 to minimize the open trades, for me I feel its better to use EMA5 than EMA3 on 5 minutes charts.

the system is perfect on 1 minutes chart but I prefer to work with it on >1tf I dont like to open many trades!, on 5 minutes chart in good moving days you open only 1 up to 4 trades...
Hi maanawi !

I saw your screenshot, but there's no signal or a rule to exit....
Could you please explain what could be the for this indicator?
Thank you

Hi
I have been following this thread from it’s start and I find your adjustment in the chart presentation more positive but I have one problem is how to differentiate when the price reaches the blue line , and I am considering placing a position ,between whether the price will continue through the line or simply bounce off . How do you handle this situation ?

I dont know what to advice you about this, your question is hard, like if im trading 32 EMA and when price bounce back of it what could I do... I think I will be at this time in trade with the direction of the EMA or I will not take the trade.

Hi Paulus,

Nice to hear from you again. Alicia has shared this wonderful indicator having different versions. The blue line was made thick by the trader above by chnaging the line size in the indicator. I do not know how Alicia coded the indicator, but my understanding was that he used some optical illussion technique to code the indicator. He is not sharing the code for the new indicator; however, he shared the code for the previous versions.
The indicator sort of moves like the trend magic indicator in some sense. I am not saying that it is trend magic. But anyway the indicator is very good at producing huge pips to counter balance the losses in the whipshaws. If there was an EA to trade the system it would have awesome. Alicia and many people here are trying different ways of using the indicator to overcome the whipshaws. So if you wanna throw in an input I believe Alicia would not object.

Thanks

I am using Carmen 3.1 in the chart. I took the sell trade because the M5 and H1 agree. Let's see how it works itself out.

Thanks I tend to try and capture the move alot sooner than it happens using this ind...BUT ..... when the signal takes off its because the trend has established itself perhaps ? From what I have read its above the blue to buy and break down through the yellow to sell..I have divided the 2 lines in half to give me a mean average..

I like it no descion making

Almost all the lines shown in your post are OLIVE GREEN. If you wish a more vivid shade of green then change the color of the indicator.

channel lines are either green or red by default , these are clearly not red. scroll back and you will see the difference

Not wishing to change any thing here just adding a few ideas...

I have been looking to enter using a stoch its a method I use allot and 7 times out of 10 gives me a good fill.

I have inc screen shots of signals on 3 of the 4 swaps Im following

It seems to me most of the signals occur on either quite large up or down candles or spikes when the parallel lines are breached I feel a bit uncomfortable with this as I dont really like taking a short signal at the bottom of a big red bar that breached the lower line by 10 or 15 pips.

I wait for the stoch to come up and break 50 the 1st screen shot shows how it works..

I havnt had long enough to gauge all the sigs but its looks workable and gives a far better fill..

Quoting maanawi
Thanks alot Alicia for your effort and help for all of us here.

I do like the way carmen indicator its work amazing on all time frames, I even like so much V3.1 work very well

I hope if some one can make EA for V3.1 on the following settings:

we will use the blue line only with ema 5

EA will open for example buy close half of the position after 10 pips TP and the other half close it when ema touch again the blue line

when the ema 5 cross again the blue line open sell but incres the position size this way ( 1,2,3,4,5)...
Hello all,

Just chking the thread to see if there is any update as this is the time to really rest and allow the PC to rest too....lol.

This is a great contribution from maanawi and I hope to try it out in the new year.

Just looking at chart...just for fun, I can see that using maanawi's idea on the carmen 3.1, GU would have giving a whooping 200+ pips from yesterday...thats a whaooo.

Its also good to have paulus on the thread, ur experienced contribution is well appreciated.

Happy new year to you all and I pray that year 2010 will bring lots of pis to us all.

Happy new year I-Buks and every one

Hello Paulus,

many tests and indicators but still show that carmen by it self work like hero, its really place it self in most right places every time, and its has its own secret for me I willing to work on it like its only cause other indicators will confuse me Aiccia also said he want the system to be based on one idicator only.

I wish if some one can do the EA as setting I mentioned and here some pictures explain how EA should be.
