Take a look at this picture.

I am using 2 mtf heikens and a bbmacd in the lower window.

After watching for a few hours you should be able to spot the entries

You can use a line trader ea for entries, works really well

Just draw the trendlines and wait for the line trader to trigger your entry.

Hello HH,

retrospectively the entries are easy to see. While they generate, it is not so easy J

Have a look at my snapshots below from a couple of minutes ago. I would like to understand when you actually put the trendline for the line-trader on the chart and activate it.

http://img703.imageshack.us/img703/4...12113910am.jpg


Pic 1: all indicators red, price already on the MA8.
Pic 2: I put a trendline “on the back” of the red HAMA. But I entered basically “on anticipation”, not on the fact both indicators agreed. Only when the line was already broken by price, one of the MTF HAMAs started showing some green.
Pic 3: HAMA turns blue, deal actually turned out +25 pips for me J


Can you explain a bit more on how you are timing the entry, especially at what moment do you put the trendline with regards to the behavior of the MTF HAMAs that should agree?

Thanks,

YW Mohan, for those of you who dont know how to use the line trader.

From the navigator, drag the ea onto the chart you have open.

In the inputs make the colors that you like for trend lines.

There are 4 commands

BA buy above (Name trendline BA to buy above trendline)
BB buy below (Name trendline BB to buy below trendline)
SA sell above (Name trendline SA to sell above trendline)
SB sell below (Name trendline SB to sell below trendline)

The trendlines have to be same color as in the EA

Make your on complete color different color (trend line changes to that color when order executed.)

HH

In the bottom window the indicators are mtf heiken ashi, not HAMA's

If you want to have safe trades just use the 15 min ha and only trade the 1 min in that direction. I agree that the signals are hard to see, but take some time you will get used to it. Use a line chart for a while rather than candles and you can see the moves much easier.

Hi Mohan, the trendlines will not appear by the EA. The line trader is called line trader because it allows you to trade from a trendline that yourself draw onto the chart.

Draw a trendline as you see on the examples. Then for a buy stop, call it BA (for buy above) and make it blue. When the EA runs, you will see in upper left corner at what price the current buy stop is.

Hope this helps,

Hi,

my problem: it looks picture perfect and its easy to find entries when you look at a chart.
But try it realtime as price moves.

I give you two examples:

Pic on the left, the line chart did not cross the line trader trendline.
However, when you take the candle chart you see that there was a spike trough and position would have been filled already.
So, retrospectively, with the linechart you do not see how many false entries one would have had.

http://img803.imageshack.us/img803/6...01284844am.jpg

On this picture you see how the indicator can "trick" you.

http://img607.imageshack.us/img607/1...01285001am.jpg


On the left it was green and you would not have taken a trendline trade down. Then the price moves down and suddnely the indicator repaints as well to red. Looking at a past data chart, it would be again a picture perfect trade short, right?

Maybe HH can clarify. As said in my earlier post, I would really like to see how a trade is decided and at what exact moment a trendline trade is placed with the limitation of the above "issues".

Maybe you could post some snaphots showing the timeline and your thinking as a trade develops.

This is probably of great help for us trying to use HH´s system.

Cheers

Me again,

HH, sorry for asking that many questions. My examples are not ment to critizise your work. In contrary, I would like to trade it and have all those questions simply.

In below situation I have the feeling both is adequat:

Hi,

I have entered at the place where i marked arrow UP. later the trend coming to south...am i trend the wrong direction?

  • Jul 12, 2012 9:18am Jul 12, 2012 9:18am
Mohan, I think this is exactly the situation from above where I wonder as both seems possible.
Let´s wait for HH to explain on my questions.

Showing us entry with several snapshots in a row as a trade is setting up is probably the best way to show us.
