I can almost remember 20 years ago when I was 20. I could wake up and be awake. I could recover from a workout almost overnight. I had more hair on my head. The world was at my feet!

hey saxon..... what are you using to define the sensitivity of the swing points..... is it something that can be adjusted, such as the zigzag....

the reason i ask is it would be vary rare for any normal swing to be greater than 50 bars.... that's almost 2 months.....

double click on the chart below for animation..... see if this is similiar to what you had in mind..... the 0 is for when one side had less than the required minimun of 10.......h

Hey Hayseed,
I just pulled up the thread and saw this post. It looks like it was what i had in mind. Once the indicator is on the chart, can it be adjusted by the front-end user to define the requirements for a level? So if I wanted to change itfrom 10-20 bars to like 15 -30 can that be done in the options? This study is going back a few years so the large swings should be ok 50+. But if the options alllow for an easy change, then we should be able to adjust the requirements for specific levels. I have to run to a meeting for a few hours and should be back, my car is out font waiting so I gotta jet, will try to check up on the thread in a few hours. thanks Hayseed!!!!

Hi MarcVUM

I can understand why you really like this combo of MA's crossing.


"I really like it when the 21 crosses below the 35 and then right after the 150 crosses below the 200...I let it ride until a candle closes above the 35. Very profitable at times!" post #8575-8576.


These MA's from are working really well in combo with the weekly ATR red line.
Shortly before London open today this weeks new level for the M15 weekly ATR red line matched nicely with the 150 & 200 + 21 & 35 crossing soon after.


I entered the GBPCHF M15 at 158.23 & I exited near the weekly pivot 4 candles later at 157.27.

Last Monday the same setup happened but I missed it. Today was great I was careful to check & catch the move.

Also the USDCHF showed the same setup with the MA's.

Thankyou for sharing.

Ian

Hi Hayseed,
Does that indicator have the option on it to define the bar count required for the levels?

Cool! Most think it's complicated but I've always been told that I make complicated things easy and easy things complicated. My mind just works differently then most. I guess yours works like mine!! Glad to hear it's working for you.

Hey Petar!
I am in the bear camp as well. Lots of trouble to the left all the way across the chart. Also heard the aud was greatly over valued.

hi guys.

how is everybody?

Hope everybody is well and trading nicely. Haven't posted much lately but trading is still on...

IMHO, AUD is ripe for a correction to a gap at .9280-9260 and that would be the ideal opportunity to go long....

Every man, his dog, his barber and newspaper headlines are talking about strength in AUD and how it will reach parity and beyond. Usually that's a sign to sell...

Most likely a spread fluctuation. At least that's what I tell myself.

Well, got inspired to start a "lesson thread" as you know. Not much activity. lol I am waiting for the axe to fall with my broker due to cftc rules. Looking for another broker.

I'm also playing with vt trader. Lot's of bells and whistles.

What's new in your world??????

hey saxon.... yes, the amounts are adjustable.... temporarily used a,b,c,d,e set at increments of 10..... which equates to 10 thru 20, 21 thru 30, 31 thru 40 and so on....

the same setup you had mentioned, i just lowered the top end numbers....

didn't realize you would be looking back that far.... we'll need to verify the code can handle missing data or insufficent data amounts..... to avoid lockups......

still wondering how you are defining the swings..... zigzag???....

as example, using the common zigzag to define swings i added 4 values....

the average move is the average zigzag pips movement.... not the segments length, it's vertical pips movement....

the average bars is the average number of bars per segement...... the average amount of time taken.....

the total segments is the maximum swings counted..... used 100, it's adjustable....

the max bars is the total number of bars included in those segments......

i'll add a table tallying each of the rankings..... 0 thru 5........h
