Please, I need your help.

Iīv loaded all Indiīs and tpl. from syahmi, (here thanks for all your effort), but unfortunately the bars donīt appear. Timeframes is showing but not the bars. I reloaded again and again, Iīve tryed with another broker, but nothing works.

What can I do? Has someone an idea !!???

However I think Indrek is right and I'd better use NonLagMA 20 and NonLagMA 80 instead of MTF.
Fok,
So what would you do, use these two in place of or in addition to 21 & 84?

I would suggest that you download them again and try installing the new ones.

Good decision! Yes, today is a very good and productive day!



P.S. And if Brazil wins - it will be a perfect day!
I'm used to 140p SL, not trading on Fridays, and not usiing any indi's except for 2 sma's for trend. So when you guys came in today with 15-50 SL's and great Friday trading, it gave me much to think about.
Fok, when you talk about using the 20 & 80 are you using them with 21 and 84? and doing away with the bars?
Thanks for all the chart work you do.

sanyhuis, I have to think it over, but I'll probably use:

NonLagMA 20
NonLagMA 80
NonLagDot 320
MTF (20)

I think 20 and 21 are very similar, so I don't need both 20 and 21. The same thing with 80 and 84.

I'll try to change the MTF settings so that on M-15 there will be no M-30 bar, just M-15, H-1, H-4, D-1

I'm going to keep MTF not because I need the bars (with NonLagMAs and NonLagDot I don't need bars), but because of the arrows, they are pretty good.

A very good way to calculate SL value is 1.5*ATR or 2*ATR of current timeframe (the timeframe that you are trading from).
This way you will have SL related to the volatility of the currency pair.
So, when trading EU from M15 chart, the SL would be 20-25 pips. For H4 trades use 90-120. Etc.
Of course, you may always use last swing high/low if it is not too close or too far away from the entry.

As I mentioned before, the 1.00 version repaints badly... So, I left it behind until some coder will have a look at it.
So, be careful with the indicator if you use it.
Indrek, you are right, for me the real thing will be NonLagMA 20 and NonLagMA 80, I'm going to keep MTF just in case: if I got absent-minded and don't see NonLagMA's signal, then the arrow signal would help.

How bout M5 instead D1. I think it's good enough if you got H4 behind you back. M5 can give you signs of trouble befor it happened in M15.

I used to trade the hard way. Try reading candles, drawing lines, divergence...etc. I did pretty good with it. So when this system is came along, my head keep debating myself with "It can not be this easy" question. Well, after putting the MTF with the arrow.....It certainly looks "It is that easy".

Thanks guys!!!

sanyhuis, good for you!

And about 20-30 pips here and there:

For example, I DIDN'T enter EURUSD at 9:30 (at my chart I showed it as "BAD ENTRY"). It was the third candle, but the H-1 bar and M-15 bar on M-15 were different colors, so I didn't enter.

However, I decided to enter at 13:00, because at this time they were the same color. So I entered at 13:10, 1.2516

I decided to exit when I saw the semafor alert, at 1.2549.

So, I made 33 pips.

But EURUSD is still growing, I could make 80 pips (I should've check H-1 Heiken Ashi). But that's...

Hi, thank you for sharing this. Can you kindly explain the semafor indicator, and how you used it as exit? I plan to update Post #1 and semafor seems like a welcome addition, together with Indrek's MTF-MP-NLMA indicator - http://www.forexfactory.com/showpost...&postcount=314

Your semafor indicator and setting is here - http://www.forexfactory.com/showpost.php?p=3831874, right? How did you set it so that only #3 appeared? It is only one you used?

Nice, nice. We'd appreciate it much if you can share the settings you used. Much like what F did here - http://www.forexfactory.com/showpost...&postcount=366

Of course, throwing in the charts again, when/where you enter/exit is definitely great!

Thank you!

Oh, sorry, my mistake. It was posted by gspe. Thank you for pointing that.

I think this one is for different PERIODS of NonLagMA and not for different timeframes right?

Any trending system has the same problem with the ranging and flat market.

Even during the ranging/flat market if we follow the rules and exit at the right time (using semafor and Heiken Ashi) we still can make 20-30 pips here and there.

And if we make 200 pips when the market trends and the next day, when the market is flat, we make only 20-30 pips - I think it's OK, I can live with it!


I will take the 20-30 anytime, anyday!!

How do you use the Heiken Ashi?

Currently, how can we change the TF of m30 to another one?

Quite right, and I like the idea very much. It should be far better than to have different timeframes because we can use proper correlation factor.

If using MAs instead of bars you can choose any timeframe. If current for m15 is period 20, then m30 is 40, hourly is 80, h4 is 320, daily is 1920 etc.
You can even use weird timeframes. For example, period 50 would mean 37.5 minute TF

Hi,
if you need it just ask me, and i'll change the code for the 4BARS-MTF.
We can make it in any way we want, we can choose every time frame we like.
The only problem is the setup for arrow alert. Actually the indicator look from same color dots from lower time frame to higher for arrow and if it found 2- 3- or 4 dots of same color it display the arrow.

Please let me know what you think
