Woah, where have I been? We're already over 200 pages.
I just looked for the first time since I started the thread at the active threads and Extreme TMA is at the top of the Hottest list. Quite amazing...

The mention of the PDF relating to recovery trades reminded me of the question I asked a couple of days back and your reply.

If you read the PDF you will see where my question came from.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If say we open 1 lot and it goes 100 pips the wrong way, do you then open 1 more lot, another 100 pips 2 lots another 100 pips 4 lots but close initial position out?

I read the PDF from Nanningbob and Steve hopwood and one suggestred
1,1,2,4 repeat 1,1,2,4 closing out...
Yes. I would use the 1,1,2,4 method and beyond that repeat the series and close out the oldest trade so you only have maximum 4 open at any time. In reality, I´ve never had to go beyond the 1,1.

Al,
Have you ever had to do more than one recovery trade at a time? It seems with the correlation between the pairs that would be a good possibility.

I think you said you've only had to do 10 recovery trades since you started trading this system, so that's good.

Here is The Beast User Guide. The part we're interested in is the Recovery section, pages 19-21. Sorry but I don't know how to chop out all the other stuff. It's pretty close to the previous version posted but has the correct figures in the examples.

One important thing that I'm not sure is emphasised enough is that Recovery is not just entered automatically when you're a set amount of pips against your trade. It should only be entered when all the conditions of your trading system are met.
I´ve extracted the Recovery System out of the Beast system PDF that you posted and I have attached it below. I will include this Pdf in the Packet.zip file in the future.

No. I´ve never had two Recovery Trades at the same time. Up to now, I´ve been able to close all 10 I´ve had at BE.

Thanks for posting the pdf, the explanation of the difference between a trade setup and a trade trigger and the relative chart is very interesting and useful for me.

Hi, I've tried to get the simulator going, I followed instructions, when it says to "save chart view into blanksim.tpl" does that mean just to save your current chart that you want to test as "blanksim.tpl"? If so, I've done that. I press start, but nothing happens, the simulator will not start. (I have followed the rest of the instructions) Any ideas anyone?
Thanks in advance.
Well I don't want to get too much on an off topic tangent but maybe my instructions are no good has anyone had them work? That would be good to know

There is a tab at the bottom of Strategy tester called journal. You can check in there if you got an error. You are also welcome to PM me a screenshot and I will try to help you further.

Just to clarify this is the simplest way to look at old data like it's realtime. It does no let you simulate trades since there is no code at all in BlankSim. If you want to do that it is not much harder. Just search for vHands on this site.

Paradox,

Thanks for your intelligent exposition.

You say:

I really like the TMA rules you have since you are getting 3 independant signals from one indicator which is pretty cool. I just modified the TMA chart indicator to just draw the arrows and change colors so it is a pretty clean way to get all the information.

Can you please explain and/or post a chart picture that makes this clearer? Are you not using the TMSSlope indicator at all?

I would like your opinion, since I am always in favor of the simplest solution that...
Here is a screenshot. You can see the same info as the slope indicator can be put on the chart. The problem is I used up the buffers and broke the alert system so it is not a seamless replacement for your TMA. It is easy to fix that though so I will do that and send it to you.

Good job Al. You take on an awful lot of work for the benefit of us all.

This thread contains some helpful information:
http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=299019

One of the posts overthere says: "the TMA is a 56 period LWMA with two bands of 2ATR(100) around it."
Thanks Favorite!

Paradox,

I love the way you have the center line of the TMA reflect the value ranges of the TMASlope. Very intuitive and clear. It makes me see much more clearly that the -.50 to .50 range zone is pretty accurate as to when the TMA is moving pretty much sideways. I don´t like the arrows on the TMA, but I want that TMA with the colored center line if you can get it to me.

Thanks a lot.

I remember last year when the "Trading Made Simple" thread started, it got 110 pages and 220,000 views in 11 days. I think it was some kind of the ForexFactory's record until now, until Alorente's thread! You broke their record, Al!

On the one hand I'm very proud of our thread.

On the other hand: boy, we do need a thread's digest, don't we?

This is a contre-trend system.
So how come we are still shorting after EU double top 250 pips away?
Just a joke.
I'm not sure if anyone will like it, but I like to use this indie, it is like zigzag, but not, and has a very interesting logic. It helped me to stay all the way down with EU all Friday, you just have to play with the settings a bit. I use 5pip range bars but maybe someone will find a way to use it on a regular chart.
Oh it's Monday... gotta trade again...

Congratulations and Thank You to flaw for the hard work involved in putting the first volume of my thoughts together. It has been prepared in a very profesional manner with hyperlinks to relevant posts, charts, etc. Great job man, even though I really think I do not deserve the honor of having my thoughts bound in a document like this.

By the way, the title is his idea. My tiny ego would not allow me to think of a title like that.

You are quite a guy. I really appreciate it.

Unfortunately, the file is 1,575 KB and Forex Factory is not allowing me to post it, even though it says that the maximum pdf size allowed is over 6 MB. If anyone has a workaround this, please let me know. If not, PM me your email and I will be happy to email it to you.

Al, you can go to one of the file-sharing sites and upload your file there and give us the link to the uploaded file, and also show this link in your first post.

Unfortunately, I never used any file-sharing sites, so I can't recommend any.

If anybody has a good experience with one of those - please tell Al.
