Nonlag Heiken Ashi....

You need to have Nonlag MA_v7.1 in your indicator folder.

Try it out folks...



Cheers !
whats the rationale behind the nonlag heiken ashi, because besides the difference in color, it is pretty much the same as the regular heiken ashi

I am always intrigued by how Heiken Ashi works. How do you use HA to help you in your trading, Syahmi?

Thanks!

I've always used HA in my trading.... it's easier to spot any changes in trend.... a trend once established will remain there for some time until new development emerges....

So, far, just like the regular MA cross trading, I plan to open BUY trade if NonLagMA 21 crossed above 84, and open SELL trade if 21 crossed below 84.

And like Fokusnik said, trade only in the direction of same color.

Well, at least, that is the plan ... hehehe
I was just reading through this thread from the beginning and when I read your idea of trading the cross of the 21 and 84 the first thing that came to mind to be taken into consideration was the angle of the 84 at the time of the cross. Very simply, the trade will have a much better chance of working out positively if the angle (direction) of the 84 is the same as the direction of a cross from below to above or from above to below.

Hello everyone,

I discovered this thread this past weekend and stayed up last night reading through all 30 pages of it.

Today I am trying to download, upload, install all the indicators from post #1 and having not even the least bit of success
whatsoever. I can't get anything into any metetader platform and I can't even begin to figure out why.

I am attaching what I am seeing when I try to load into metatrader and it just doesn't look right at all. Why does it just say
"attachment"? That strikes me as strange. Also, I am inclined to question this being a PHP file as a possible cause to problems.
This "PHP" strikes me as strange also.

Does anyone have any ideas that will help me get going?

Thanks,

Mike

Some browsers download as "attachment" so you have to rename the file. A better solution id to try to download the files from under the paperclip in top right corner of thread page, then you should be able to place them in appropriate folder.

Hmmm... my best guess at the moment would be that your explanation of different browsers downloading as "attachment" would
be wrong because I have hunted back through the actually threads to find some of the original posts and the original files and some
say of the ones that said attachment from the updates in post #1 come up with the full file name and not attachment... so I am thinking
that that would dispell your theory. (sounds more to me like a problem on the end of the posts... why do some of them come up as
"attachment" and some don't?) ???

I will try downloading from the paper clip in the upper right corner.

Did that work (downloading from the paperclip?)
If not, save the file, to your desktop, and change where it says save as .php to save as "all files"...when you are saving it....rename it to the name you want, saving it to your desktop....and then drop it into your template files.

In almost every thread I read, somewhere along the thread someone has this trouble.

downloading from the paperclip usually works....and if not....just name the file to the proper name and extension......a bit of a hassle, but it works

I think we should discuss the setup differences for different timeframes.

I think that on M-5 we'd better wait for 4 dots' alingment, on M-15 3 dots alignment is good enough, and on H-1 I would enter with just 2 dots' alignment.

What do you guys think?

stifland, I didn't trade this yet, as a matter of fact I didn't trade Monday and Tuesday at all because of the 4th of July.

But I think starting now I'm going to use this setup for a little while, on the history it looks good...

when you see 3 dots allignment is ok, those 3 are the most recent ones ? for M15, it could be M15, M30, H1. is that true ? we cant take trade if the current TF is against all remaining 3 TF

i am still confused about when the dots are changing and how it is repainting and when the arrow is drwan, whether arrow is also redrawn ?

also about SL, TP, not sure what startegy to follow

Since the original trade strategy requires exiting the trade on two lower highs for a buy or two higher lows for a sell, or if the NonLagMA changes color, I would think that the pip distance of the two candles before entry would be a good measure to consider for a stop. If this happens to be a large number of pips, say anything more than 18, then I would use half of that amount because if price moves against your position by more than half the amount of pips that the first two candles make up, the NoNLagMA will probably change color anyway.

Using both MTF & MP at the same time.... Luckily it's not using much CPU resources.

Check the vertical red line drawn earlier. NLMA yellow channel is very useful to detect trend change and movement.


Cheers !

stifland, I don't know what went wrong. My MTF works just fine.

But I can tell you, that I never downloaded the latest version. I use 4BARS-MTF-NLMA 1.03.mq4 from this post:
http://www.forexfactory.com/showpost.php?p=3848753

And I think using both MTF and MP at the same time uses too much CPU resources.

roundrock, what I'm talking about - is not an official iamnoel's version, just my views, OK?

Let's take M-15 for example. Let's say your MTF shows 3 dots' alignment for the first time, and it shows it right now. I'm talking about the three bottom bars on M-15: M-15, M-30 and H-1, I don't care about the top dot (H-4's dot).

I don't want to enter immediately, because M-15's dot (the bottom dot) can repaint before the end of the current candle. I wait for the end of the candle and then, if the new 3 dots are still aligned - then it is the signal that we can enter. So, we enter not at the current candle that shows 3 dots, but at the beginning of the next candle.

But I also said before (and Syahmi supported me) that we'd better use MTF or MP as an alert tool only. So, if MTF at the beginning of the next candle shows 3 dots, we go to M-30 and H-1 and check the NonLagMA itself there - I already explained how to do it in this post:
http://www.forexfactory.com/showpost...&postcount=431

I'm not sure whether arrows repaint or not. Frankly speaking, it doesn't matter, because for me MTF is just an alert tool, I go to M-30 and H-1 and look at NonLagMA for the confirmation.

And about SL and TP - it really depends on your MM preferences.
