Hi Kos and everyone else,

I've read upto Page 21 and have also read a couple of the last few pages and it seems a lot has changed since the thread started.

Can some someone please advise me from what date did changes happen and from what date it will be best to read from.


I'm not being lazy, I swear, it's just that because of all the changes it's unnecessary to read posts or pages that wouldn't really apply and it takes up soo much time being a slow reader.

Thanks in advance. Hope you all understand.

{quote} I enter at the close of the bar. If xo changes to red i wait for the current bar to close if xo is still red I open short at the opening of the new bar. kos {image}
I back tested(manual) the XO for the past 4 weeks on core5 H1 chart. Blue lines are profitable trades and the red lines are the losing trades. I found there are 95 trades. 28 Winners and 69 losers. Out of 28 profitable trades 5 are big profits, 12 are moderate and rest all small/negligible. Total spread is about 2375 @ 25 per trade. The 69 trades in loss would be around 6900 @ 100 per trade (actual must be more). So, the total 9275 should be recovered in 28 winning trades to break even. Considering the 5 big and 12 medium trades have made the break even possible, overall profit would be still better. That is fair. But this is subject to all the trade entries are made without missing single entry as we do not know which one is going to be the big one. If any one or two big trades missed would end up with over all loss. Basket trading is highly profitable provided all entries are made without fail.

Interesting results Fx-optimus. Did you also use BE to get these results? If so, your testing shows that the profit factor is questionable and major ups and downs only bring minor profits compared to the ups and downs in the long run. Personally I trade Ichi, but I think XO works aswell is you don't trade it blindly. Always take larger TF into concideration and always BE.

Hi Tnavi! I picked up 600 points to a long JPY group by using Ichimoku and EMA 2 (instead of just using close - HLCC / 4 recommend).
Went out on a trend line

Manual_fx,

I am trying to replicate your KOS14 renko chart, with 250 pips.

I have applied the EA version of the indicator you supplied, to the M1 KOS14 off-line chart with 250 pips.
But the Renko bars I get differ substantially from your picture above.
Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Suzette

I have noticed some differences backtesting renko and running live.

Try running live to see if it replicates my charts.

Also try refreshing the charts - right click chart then refresh all applicable charts.

I am running the kos basket indicator on h4- GBPJPY and then running renko EA on the m1 chart it generates

Manuel_fx, have you tried trade by range bars instead of renko chart? I see you use renko to scalping....Does it work well?

Renkos should be the same if you both run it from M1 basket chart. Just because KOS basket indi is on H4 chart shouldn't change anything.

What is that indicator that show the color changes and that you trade by? Is it just a MA with different colors according to different steepness of the MA?

No i havent tried range bars - renko can work well - it has same problems as normal bars when consolidating - but when you have a massive clearing bar like you have on h4 sometimes you get in earlier as you are not waiting for h4 to close.
