Seller, Max,anyone?

Based on the EA trade entry, which MA cross will happen sooner:

1. LWMA + EMA shift 2 ......or

2. EMA5 & EMA10 ?

I think the LWMA+EMA shift 2 shoul give the earlier signal but I'm not sure how the EA exactly works.

thanks !!

P.S. this week is interestig, a lot of news a lot of entries and a lot of thinking...
what i do is when i want to compare crosses of MA's is that i put them on the chart to see which one is earlier or better for the strategy in question.

with settings of # 1 it would be slightly earlier in Entry's & EXIT's than # 2

i have another setup from last year that i had 5ema cross 7ema shift 1 and i put it as a setup in this EA something similar to Lawgirls Strategy but i did'nt take it from that, did that one on my own , but it's very similar to the 5 LWMA + 5 EMA shift 2 cross but for the 5/10 cross it's a bit later but at the sametime it could save from false entries or stay in longer which can be in favor and other times it could not be in our favor.

Here are the trades from the 15th and 16th so far. H4 period trading 24/5.
I am using just the 5/10 ema cross as the entry trigger.

Looks like BE and JS ended all these trades.

Stop Loss Multiplier = 2.0
Close on Candle color change
Break Even = true 20,5,5

Nice results seller9 +115 pips with only 1 signal as criteria

like i mentionned in my prior posts i switched some setups with the JumpingStop instead of the CandleTrailstop, thats besides re-organising some of my Signal Alerts and today what a surprise

so seller9's JumpingStops are Amazing, i recommend to try that setting, i still have setups with candletrail and i still have the close settings with 5emaclose / 5LWMA cross / Candle Colorchange on some but JS / BE has good potential to bring & lock in the PIPS

Quote
TradeClosureAfterProfit = false
UseStaticTdiCloseONcross = True
Use5emaCandleClosed = True
Use5LWMAcross = True
UseCandleColorChangeClose = True

TP Multiplier = 0.0 (H1) on H4 i have set at 1.5
SL Multiplier = 2.0 (H1) on H4 still not decided what to put it at but for now it's at 1.5

UseBreakEven = true
BreakEvenPips = 30
BreakEvenProfit = 5
JumpingStopPips = 5

Winners = 2
E/J 55 pips (H4 - LO to US close)
E/U 78 pips (H1 - LO to LC)

Losers forex = 0
Open = 0

Profit = +133 pips

Will post the trades from this week using the settings mentioned in the previous posts, just the ma cross. It is now 9:00 CST and I am in the process of shutting down for the week. As the trades close out I remove the EA from that chart, I have one open trade at the moment (EURCHF) which I am waiting for the EA to get out of. It looks like it may be a loser as it was a BUY and it seems to have stalled. This is H4 chart so will take a while to see what happens. If I wasn't testing the EA (Hands Off), I would probably just close this last trade myself, but I want to see what the EA can do on its own. After that one closes I will post the results for the week, looks good for this week. KISS


Good Luck


PS: I am also working on an EA for the ichimoku Break Out idea, an idea presented by "unimak", I will probably add it to the etb next version. I have it running on Range Bars and it looks OK so far, but only for one day so far, so too early to tell. May be a good addition to the Tool Box, anyone used the ichimoku breakout method and if so what was your results?


If interested you may want to do some reading about it.

I still have one trade open as shown below in the screen shot but thought I would get this done for the weekend.
I only had these settings for three days, so it was not a full week. Next week I will let the same settings run all week.

Total Trades = 13
Winners = 12 +162 pips
Losers = 1 -27 pips
Open = 1

Profit = +140 pips

I told you it would be a very good week

I am testing 2 set ups at H4:

1. The OLD Hanover H4+5/10EMA cross+TDCiH1 +2/8 trendH1+ CCI 100(added last weekend).

4 wins + 110 pips

no losses.

2. The new (without Hanover) 5LWMA/5EMA cross+TDCiH1 +2/8 trend+ CCI 100 (runned from 15th)

10 wins - +270 pips

2 loses - 50 pips


This week may not be representative as many RED news was coming so lets wait to confirm next weeks.


The real power of this set ups are the exits based on jumping stop - thats was what I was looking for - Seller your newest JS set up IS MAKING THE DIFFERENCE CHAPEAU BAS!!

hey jacob....

no results this week i have had loads of motherboard problems this week, the replacement part i got was also causing issues but hopefully have it sorted for now fingers crossed....its been running stable with no restarts for the past 36 hours so im hoping it will hold up

the results you posted are v promising... but why only trades on the 15th and 16th?

is it because you were only running it on those days or because there was no valid signal on the rest of the days?


also please can you post your set file, really want to test that this week!

v1.05 isn't out yet but you can get the same settings with v1.04 using th set file posted a few posts back.

v1.05 will probably only have the ichimoku added and just a few display corrections anyway.

Will be testing ichimoku also next week using range bars and see what it can do.

Nice seller9 can't wait especially the range bars.

This is my Ichimoku > Tenken (2) - Kijun (5) - Senkou (8) settings i had previously.

But i changed it to > Tenken (2) - Kijun (3) - Senkou (5) as this is the settings in the EA v1.04 for now as mentionned by seller9 and it's used by the THV system

so i made modifications to reflect it.

also the Coral is also THV related so it's 60ema factor 0.4 as seen in the 1st pic below the Thin Blue/Red Line touching the Pivot

and the amazing part is you can set up the "Expert ToolBox" to recreate the THV below in the 1st pic, also some of whats in the 2nd pic.

At this time the Range Bars are not part of the EA but a script I run that generates the off line chart I then place the EA and ichimoku on.

ok so we can add the EA on an Offline Chart ? (like for Renko or Range Bars EX; with the RenkoLiveCharts) was thinking of trying it but forgot to try it out and it's on my other PC all those Range or Renko related stuff, i will try the EA this week on an offline chart thats for sure


but i do use the indicator version on some of my other strats, that overlays the normal candles, like these indies below


Quote
the normal Candles with MTF options that can overlay the current Candles of a lower TF CustomCandle_MTF.mq4... as seen below in the 1st pic is 6 HR Candles overlaying 1 HR Candles

or in the 2nd or 3rd pics the -Range or Renko style candles indis RenkoBricks_v2.mq4 or RenkoShade2_3.mq4

Lots of great work goin on here guys Is there any chance we could have a user specified MA used as our trend instead of detection? for example, we set a 100ma as our trendline, any 5/10 cross above the 100ma is a buy only, a cross below the 100ma is a sell only.
