hi ectrade,

with the stochastic it works fine too like heiken aishi, but the feature to closing order when it reverse before it hit the SL makes a lot of small losses within a few seconds,

that situation will make this EA have no range for the trading....

instead of this maybe user just put small SL... or do optional to use or not this closing order when it reverse because we pay the spread to open position and only small winning pips.

it works really good, except the moving SL and TP...
Well, the whole thing is setup so we can each experiment anyway. Right now I have it setup (on Indicator select Option 3) that it will only Buy and Sell when both indicators indicate it (with the arrows). I think this is what juannie was suggesting.

Hey, I that gives me an idea. I think I'm going to shift the whole Indicator Select to where the previous one is. So, instead of entering 1 or 0 and having to select a second time at the bottom, you can do it all right there at once.

In fact, I think I'm going to do that right now ...

Are you talking about the Dazz Plus option, which I haven't quite got working yet ... or what?

Or, is this the feature where I'm trying to adjust for the slippage? Have you checked that out yet? I had go back and change the code because I didn't have it setup the way I normally do. So, I thought that might have fixed it.

Okay, I'm not sure what you're talking about, just yet. However, I did incorporate both indicators the way I said. Also, both indicators still seem operable when used separately. Please take a look at the way I set it up and tell me if that's correct, Okay?

Also, if there is any time frame variation between indicators, how does this work? Can it be set up with the indicators themselves or, do you have to place them on a separate chart, or what?

And yes, I uploaded the EA [url="http://%22http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?p=3452311#post3452311%22once"]once...
yes,

this both indicator working great too and can operable separately...
the stochastic will open a good position too... so there is choices to use with heiken aishi or stochastic.

about time frame we don't put the indicator on separate chart. it is just and option setup at the EA.

example :
we have a choice in dingdong setup..
dazz 1-6= ?? we can make choice of this...1, 2, 3, or 6

the time frame is the same.... there is choices of time frame indicator will be use : 1, 5, 15, 30, 60 etc..it depends how the user will set it.

i don't how to put it the program. i know it will be hard...
i hope juanie can explain this more better than me...

but if you try semi manual to use dingdong you will understand it more better to see this picture...

this is about stochastic, i notice actually, the stochastic give a good signal to open position too, so there is 2 option using stochastic or heiken aishi....

hm actually i confuse what makes the closing position when it reverse because you' re working for adjust the slippage or because dazz plus option ?

did you read our suggestion : there is P_lead option to make different value for up and down, right now is same value=3.... can you make it p_lead up=3 and p_lead down=7

any number at preset and reset, you can adjust it with the right number p_lead down=7, because you're the one who knows how to calculate this math...

actually, this ea already perfect when doing semi manual things, only need to make it more safety and perfect adjustment and put more strategic to working, and not to put a lot of more indicator.

this is the one right now i think will work the best for dingdong :
- P_lead up and down
- TF stochastic, we discussed above about the rule buy and sell about the spesific boundary level.

- hybernate the ea when gap up and gap down too much pips, example 50 pips > i think you work with it with the suspend things option...
i just want to make sure, the suspend base on 2x losses or base on gap up or gap down??....

this is one of the things to prevent losing our profit.... the market always open for us that why we don't have to trade 24 hours.... just when the time is good to make pips....

- start and end time to trading or how many hours will work, is it will work randomly hours or will work base our choice of time...

- move the SL to break even or Target profit and have option to profit target.
( we can discuss it later about this one let the keep profit running)

thx

I think by P_lead down, you mean P_lag which, like P_lead, is adjustable (manually).

As for Dazz Plus, I intend to remove P_lag or, increase it several times over what's normal, whatever that is (by 100 points?), and have P_lead "migrate" downwards, and yet, increase gradually, as it starts to trend in the opposite direction. This way if it keeps going down and down, you won't take any loss or, if all of sudden it starts to reverse, you don't have to go very far (because P_lead has shifted downwards all this time as well) and you are right where you want to be to open a trade in the opposite direction.

hi ectrade,

maybe like this about p lead, i understand, i am confusing those number at preset and reset thing :

i hope it is right :

- buy at 100, sell at 107, because p lead=3, if go up + 3 pips will buy again at 110
when it reverse because p lead=3 will buy again at 104, is that correct that right now dingdong work like this with default setting plead=3?

i hope can do different not the same number, it can work like this :

- buy at 100, sell at 107, because p lead up=3, if go up + 3pips will buy again at 110
when it reverse because p lead down =7, will buy again at 100...

is it possible like this setup? p lead up and p lead down with the different number value?

so we don't jump in to early when there is pull back to take position again... maybe set 5 or 7 pips.

about dingdong dazz plus, actually all of things, i have no idea to work right now, i hope i can understand it by the time dingdong is finish...
you're the one, know which one the best for it...

thx

SL and TP moving with the constant number depend P/A

SL move down -120 pips.
and TP goes Up+70 pips.

when SL move down, TP goes up... in the chart can see the line SL and TP move repeatly and sometimes it stop.

What, are you saying it's doing the same thing it did before? Is this a standard account or is it a mini account? If it's standard, then you should expect the TP and SL values to be 10 times larger. This almost sounds like what you're saying, isn't it? Is this (IBFX) the only account you are having trouble with?

hi ectrade,

maybe like this about p lead, i understand, i am confusing those number at preset and reset thing :
The presets are the values based upon the closing price to set targets for the next or order, both above (P_lead) and below (P_lag). Currently it's setup to open an order 3 points above the closing price or 12 points below. The presets also apply so long as you are only in the "winning" mode. They are not to be confused with the "Resets" (R_lead and R_lag), which are the values determined after you hit the second stop loss and, in effect when everything gets "reset."

Now, if you set both presets to 0, and drop the lower reset, R_lag (or, set it to 0), you have exactly what juannie is proposing, where all orders open immediately upon the previous close. And, if it goes south (after the second loss) it doesn't place anymore trades.

These are the specified values here ...

TP1=10; SL1=20; P_Lead=0; P_Lag=0; R_Lead=20; R_Lag=0;

Quote
i hope it is right :

- buy at 100, sell at 107, because p lead=3, if go up + 3 pips will buy again at 110
Except for the stop loss, which is set at 12. So, if you hit the stop loss the order will close at 98, and a new order (if it hits P_lead) opens at 101. But no, if you hit the second stop loss in a row, all bets are off, and the reset values take effect.

And, of course if it doesn't open a trade and hit P_lead, and falls backwards, it opens a new trade (based upon P_lag) at 98. So no, I don't see where you are coming up with the number 104 below ...

Quote
when it reverse because p lead=3 will buy again at 104, is that correct that right now dingdong work like this with default setting plead=3?

Yes, I think this is closer to what it's actually doing.

These are the current values for Ding Dong Dazz ... TP1=7; SL1=12; P_Lead=3; P_Lag=12; R_Lead=16; R_Lag=60;

Quote

Yes, you can set them to whatever values you like ... and, of course "experiment."

Actually, I think what I'm doing here (or trying to do) is something similar to a trailing stop, except that I haven't placed the order yet. It will keep prolonging the order set point, until it looks like the trend is beginning to reverse ... or, until the indicator acknowledges the current trend and prompts you to place an order in that direction.

Sounds like a plan. Unfortunately I don't know enough about indicators that I know exactly what I'm doing. In fact I just tried a third option where both indicators are called up at the same time but, it's not nearly as easy as I thought, as it was with adding a separate option for each indicator.

Yup, that's a plan and it's like conditions that we must get in order to Buy, Sell, or Stay away from trading.


Quote
If, however, these are the same four basic signals we've been working with (when the indicator arrows show up), then I may be able to work with that. Does that make sense to you?

Yeah, these are the same four basic signals we've been working with. It make sense for me. I believe you could do some work to make it just like what i suggested before.



Quote
Which colored arrow corresponds to which condition in other words? Does the green (Stoch) arrow correspond to 20 and the red to 80?


Green and Red arrow in Stoch always head the same direction.
We could use both of the colors to meet our conditions as a signal for Ding_Dong to begin to open position.

Quoting juannie
Dear all respectful member of Forex Factory,

My name is Andre Khrisna a.k.a juannie (my username).
I'm a newbie here.

I need some help to make an EA.

I have a system/formula like this:

When EA is open, then:
Open Position (regardless of anything, just open)
If the price is up for 10 pips, then Take Profit.
If the price is down for 20 pips, then Stop Loss.
If the price is down for 20 pips twice in series, then Stop Loss and Stop Trading.
Wait until the price is up for 10 pips twice in series, then Open Position again.

[b]This...
Isn't this method abit like Renko Bricks? That are 10pip in size? Up brick take profit, down 2 bricks stop loss,.....if down 4 bricks then stop trading........then start trading again if up 2 bricks.

And would it be better to just go with shorting instead of only buy, as (I read somewhere) traders are quicker to short/sell than to buy/or go long?
