Hey stratman...

As i trade mostly on eurusd-gbpusd and udjpy, i wanted to tell u that i backtested your "breaking trendline" system that u showed couple of days ago and it worked for me quite good.

And don't mention too much about people who complain... Forex is sacrifice, studying, trial and error. There will always be people who get mad at u because with your system they didn't make a lot of money, and in a very short time

Again... keep up with your videos and system... i am one of those who really follow and appreciate it!

Cheers...

Dario, glad to see some other trader from Italy here!

Best wishes!

Hello everybody,

I worked out a Money-Management System and would like to know your opinion about it - Please take the time to review the PDF attachement and write me some coments or improvement ideas. Thanks a lot. I am planning to use this MM concept with Stratmanīs Skype-Room trading setups.

Have a nice weekend - Hannes

Hi Rob

You have mentioned in some of your posts/videos that you feel that the work that you have put into the dashboard has not paid off. While that is true in monetary terms, I look at it a different way.

By creating the dashboard, I'm sure it has helped you become more successful as a trader as it has for all of us who use it. Your programming efforts with the DB are part of a journey to become a successful trader. From what I have seen, I would consider you a successful trader. You may not have reached your goals but you will I'm sure.

I understand and fully support you wanting to slow down on developing the DB. I think it has evolved into an excellent product.

You are a very generous man who has selflessly given to others your advice, your programming skills, your knowledge and time to help others succeed. The DB has been the conduit for much of your sharing. The thing with sharing is that you give and get something in return. What you get in return can't always be measured in material terms but I believe it has a value which is far greater than material things. Sometimes the return value of your deeds can take a long time to become evident. It's like trading, you need to be patient.

I for one am very grateful of your programming skills and all the time and effort that you have given.

Take care.

L2T, thanks for your comments.

It is true that the development of the dashboard has escalated my trading education. I find myself easily earning 2% increase in equity per day. If I didn't have the dashboard, I don't think it would be possible.

I was risking 1% based on a 20 pip stop per trade. This means that gaining 40 pips per day gives a 2% equity increase. Based on my current trading stats, I've calculated that I can start basing my risk on a 10 pip stop.

I did some spread sheet calculations and worked out what it would take to increase an account by a factor of 10 in 100 trading days. If I can increase my account by 2.4% per trading day, it will take approx 100 trading days to increase the account by 10 times.

Example: if I have $1,000 I would need to make $24 on the first trading day ... not that difficult! If I set my risk to be 1% with 10 pip stop then I will only need to gain 24 pips per day to increase the account by 2.4%

This seems very achievable and I'm going to attempt it starting this week.

[quote=stratman;3626976]L2T, thanks for your comments.

You are welcome. Earlier today I found this paragraph on another thread.

"I am a professional trader. My job is to take risk. If I manage my losses and let my profits run I will be successful. Because I am a professional trader, I will forgive myself easily for making mistakes and move on to new opportunities. I feel great that I have the discipline to control my emotions and the patience required to be a professional trader. I am a professional trader and will make $1,000,000 by year end. I will achieve this by following my trading plan, setting achievable goals, and controlling my emotions. I am confident and believe in my own ability to be consistently profitable because I AM a professional trader."

The author says that he reads this every morning before he trades and it helps to focus his mind. I believe in the power of meditation and I plan to use this in my meditations as well as have it on my computer.

Take care

I have been on this forum since Jan. 31/10, with 1st post on page 47.
Tried many systems since joining FF last summer. It wasn't until I found this forum that I started to have consistent profits.
With my purchase of the DB, that has multiply indi's embedded in it, I have learn' t to increase my profits and limit my losses.

Thanks to stratman and all posters for the learning process..

Hi Stratman,

today I bought your Dashboard 4.3 and I have to admit I am deeply impressed by the functionality you have built into this great software.

Unfortunately I got some problems. I canīt open the pipware-charts 6.2 TDI nor the pipware-charts 6.3 TDI. Even your delivered charts template does not open or should I better say fill the TDI window.

Furthermore after saving a template with your indicators and closing MT4 (226) some windows with pipware-charts indicators are empty after starting MT4 again.

Is this my bad, am I doing something wrong? Or is it the new 226 version of MT4 that was updated from 225 just this morning? I am sure this can be worked out by you.

Hope to meet you seen on Skype.

I wish you nothing but the best for your work and your success in trading and coding

I purchased the DB about 6 weeks ago and it is awesome - thank you Stratman. It has greatly improved my workflow and decision making because I now see so much information on one chart that I was looking across multiple charts before to see. This week I am switching from the EU to the GU, and will start to trade the EJ during the Asian session so that I can start to see if I am thinking the same way as others in the forum and taking similar trades.

Just as a side question, last week the news indicator was working well for me...no problems with it at all. But now that the markets have reopened this evening, the news indicator that I have loaded on a separate chart is not populated with any data (just question marks) and thus the Dashboard itself is also not populating with any news data. I made absolutely sure that I only had one instance of it set up. I deleted the chart with the new indicator template, and then opened a new chart and reloaded the template, but this did not work either. I tried shutting down MT4 and then restarting, but this also did nothing. Tried looking in the manual for solution, but did not find their either. I have read the thread and tried to also search the thread for the answer, but to no avail. Everything else with the DB seems to still being working perfectly fine.

Can anyone point me to solution?

Are you looking for a screen setup something like mine!

You need to refresh the screen by changing the time frame in order for the minichart to appear
If you still cant solve the problem, drop me an email.

Additional information to CandleStar.
1. Go to post #1221 at page=82 of this threat and download my template.
2. Install Trader_Dynamic_Index to window2.
3. Delete window1. (DB will disappeared)
4. Go and rightclick window0 and click 'edit' Dashboard, then close popup screen.
5. The DB will now appear on window1 of your TDI.
6. Should everything shows, then install pw chart 6.3 and turn on TDI to true and also number of chart display to 3 and also the display timeframe.
Thats all.

Hi,

Thanks for trying to help. I think that everything should run like expected without too much rearranging of windows and other workarounds.

Today after reopening MT4 the window for EURUSD with nothing else loaded but the pipware-charts-v6.2 and the original Stratman template "Pipware Charts" showed this:

Subwindow1: Empty
Subwindow HA: Full
Subwindow MACD: Full
Subwindow STOC: Full
Subwindow TRIX:Empty
Subwindow TrixH: Empty
Subwindow TDI: Empty

The charts template works only with the 6.2 version, not with the newer 6.3 for which I canīt find any template.

Refreshing does not help, only reloading of the template! But even after reloading the Charts template the TDI subwindow remains empty whereas the others are filled like it should be from the start.

It seems to me like this all is a little bit messed up by the different versions.

Anyway, I would like to use a fully working charts template with every subwindow automatically filled up after starting MT4, furthermore a working TDI. Stratman, are you there? Already looking for it? Or am I the only one having these problems?

Hey Guys,

I am not getting any popup or sound fractal alerts on my charts. The DB does put an arrow on the charts but I do not get an popup or sound alert. I was wondering if any of you could help me.

I have the following settings for the DB:
dash.alerts.DisableAll=false
dash.alerts.CombinedOn=true
dash.alertsFractalsSROn=true
dash.alertsFractalsSRTF= M15,H1,H4,D1,W1
dash.alerts.SoundOnlyOn=false
dash.alerts.OffSoundOn=false
dash.alerts.PrintToLogOn=true

With these settings should I not get a popup and sound alert when the dashboard does put an arrow on the charts?

Thanks,
Jim

Hi Strat,

You are right that the news for other countries are still influcencing the others ~ I'm in love with your NM. Can you do us a favor that fixing the bug of NW so that we can stick it into subchart rather than the main.

PS - now we can do so but the black background cannot be removed from main.

Cheers,

Hi CandleStar

Sorry for delays. It's school holidays here so have been on our west coast for a few days and been connecting to the internet via mobile phone. (New Zealanders think XT )

Two things about the pipware-charts

1) when you open MT4 with the charts already attached, change timeframe to another eg if you are on M15 change to H1 and then back again.

2) TDI requires the ex4 for TDI. As this is not my software, it isn't provided with the charts. I mention this on the download page. You may have missed it:

IMPORTANT: For 'Traders Dynamic Index' mini chart to function, you will need a copy of the Traders Dynamic Index indicator in your indicators directory. It must have the name 'Traders_Dynamic_Index.ex4'. TDI is not a pipware product.

Try CombinedOn=false

CombinedOn will require other conditions to be met as well as fractals dependent on what you have set. As I don't know what your other alert settings are I suspect that this is the problem.
