Perhaps you would like to add the pop-ups that were in the "LessoSignalLine"? "BufferPips" above the previous close for entry popup and "SLpips" below the previous low for SL popup?

Let me know specifically what you want, and I will add it.

Lesso, not sure exactly what you want here?? Can you explain?
Also, what parameters are you using on the 15m chart? I see a 60smma/weighted close and a 200sma/close. No SignalLine. Is the VQ still 7 ? Touch Distance? Do you have the trend filter enabled?

I will default the VQ period to 7 in the next mod to the indi.

Glad the indi is working out for you.

Thanks everyone!

Below is a nice ma chart indicator - courtesy of kinonen - that will further visually filter entry/exit. It colors itself according to cci and rsi.

If cci and rsi can be incorporated into the histogram for signals, we can perhaps be more liberal and allow "fresh signal only" false while getting rid of many of the false/redundant alerts as per chart below. That way we get every possible signal while at the same time ensuring that they are valid and will at least get us to break even.

A...
thanks will check it out

Im using the same settings on the 15 min chart, a longer vq could filter some false signals, gotta experiment with that. the trend filter is enabled, the MA is the 60SMMA. Just have it on there for visual confirmation. not sure why SIGNALLINE isnt on there. Touch distance is 1.5 pips. Signal line would be a setting of 9 on the 15..

Hi lesso,

do these settings work in 5 m timeframe, too?

Best regards!
they work well. I would use a setting of 9 on theMA of lessosignalline.

Dave, with regard to your thought that the VQ signal given in your pic is incorrect, if you check the indicator values in the data window for the bar that you point out, you will see that both "Up" and Down" values in the indicator data buffers have a value, meaning that VQ is in the process of changing, in this case from red to green. The code, as written, takes to forward looking vale as correct in an attempt to give an "early" signal. I could have set the value to neutral, but chose to look ahead. If people start to scream, I can easily change it. Keep in mind that the code uses the "VQmod" indicator, not the "VQ-nrp+arrows" indicator. Both give the same results, but VQmod is easier to manage from a programming point of view.

hey 236dave, thaks for checking it out.
answers:
1. those are the settings i use for both indies. As far as why is it showing earlier than the VQ? not sure. I dont have the source code available to check the values of LessoSignals. but as long as it isnt giving false signals, im ok with early. I use buy stop and sell stop orders any way, so it wouldnt really matter much to me.
2. After the first half closes, I typically would use the next pivot or big round number for a target, although lately I have been experimenting with a jumping stop....so...

I wouldnt change it. Forward looking is the way to go here, It allows mw to put my buy and sellstops in at just the right time. How have you been doing with it?

I have been trading it on demo from time to time and hope to move to live account soon. Been experimenting with timeframe, pairs to trade, and I added a multi-timeframe RSI(3) filter. I do not subscribe to adding a lot of new indicators to good thread, so I have been quite about what I have been experimenting with. But you made the mistake of asking, so I will show you. You have a good system here and a good thread that is helping people, and you get the credit for it.
If I have a major weekmness in trading, it is that I never seem to settle into one strategy long enough to get really profficient at it. Always experimenting with the latest strategy. And one cannot do both effectively (trade live on one strategy and write indicators for another strategy). Just causes you to miss trade or mis-manage trades on the money maker.

Attached is a pic of LessoSignals.v1.6 on top and LessoSignals.v1.5.1 on the bottom. v1.6 adds a multitimeframe RSI(3) filter. RSI(3) signals on the chart timeframe as well as the next three higher timeframes must be above 30 and pointing up in order to pass the filter. All other signals come straight out of v1.5.1 logic -- VQ, 9SSMA(3 shift, open), etc. When I get a good signal, I drop down one timeframe to time the entry -- this keeps the SL smaller. If the lower TF is in retrace, I wait for it to bottom out before going back to the trade TF for the actual entry. Have not yet settled on 5m vs 15m for the trade TF.

Anyway, there you have it. Thanks for a great solution.

Audrey, if you want my two cents, this is a perfect setup. Great trade. In my 4-years of trading FOREX, I have come upon, or created, many systems that produce winning setups. I have come to realize that the more difficult task (for me at least) is money management. Just got to let the winners run, so that you have winnigs enough to cover your inevitable losses. So by way of critique, when your great trade crosses the pivot, why no take off 1/2 and let the rest run until the trade comes back to the signal line? Price crossed the pivot and consolidated on the long side of the pivot for a few bars, so the odds are that it will continue long. If it comes back across the pivot to the down side, then get out for a few pips loss. But if it continues long, then you stand to gain a lot more.

It is easy to sit back and look that these trades in hindsight, I know. I am still not very good at letting them run. Trying to talk myself into it, as well as you.

Good trading.

thanks for your advice, easyryder! At the time as the price hit the pivot line the london was closed, so went with the profit... but yes of course you are right and this is my biggest problem at the moment..

Hmmm ..... unfortunately it seems that EasyRyder has "left the party" with this teaser (v.1.6 of LessoSignals, which seems v.good).

Does anybody have (or can create from EasyRider's description in his post http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...27#post5068227 ) a version of LessoSignals v.1.6 to share ? (Hope so .... it looks promising.)

(I'm not a coder, I'm afraid.) Others on the thread would appreciate v.1.6 of the Indi, I'm sure.
