stoch leading price sometimes contributed to the error term in the analysis. However, if the period is very large, ie >= 300, then the probablity that stoch will lead price at any given time is less than 5%.
Ahhh...

{quote} Hi Thanks.. There is no stoch.. {image}
You used the template, which uses an external Stochastic indy. It's exactly the same as MT4's, but the template looks for it among custom indies. So you either add the external Stochastic indy (if I remember correctly, it has to be called Stochastic.mq4) or you reconstruct that window by hand (i.e. adding MT4's Stochastic oscillator, then overlaying the BB's over it).
Even if you fall on your face, you're still moving forward.

in order to reduce the cases when stoch "leads price". But the more you increase the period, the more you will lose uniformity over DAYS, MONTHS, AND YEARS. So, 300 is optimal for 15min EURUSD.

{quote} Not always the case - if you really understand the CODE. It depends also on the period you chose and the candle that is just about to leave the period range. Stoch depends on price-action but it does not have to follow price all the time! This is one of the reason why this thing works! More later
Hi EUR,

Can u please explain "period you chose and the candle that is just about to leave the period range"

lET US SUPPOSE YOU CHOSE 10 AS PERIOD. So the value of stoch depends on the past 10 bars, including the current one. Bar number 10 is the one that is going to leave the period-range when the current bar closes.
If the high/low over the 10-period is on bar number 10, then when that bar leaves the period-range stoch will most likely lead price - simply because 10 is so small.

Could you elaborate on "lose uniformity over DAYS, MONTHS, AND YEARS"?

I am not sure you want to change the default settings every week, month or year. You want a setting that will still be stable ten years into the future. The one I gave is the best we could get - given the information we have!!! Other settings will become unstable over time and that can get you into trouble. The default setting you have successfully captured most of the important - behind the scene transactions - and we believe it will continue to do so over the next ten years,

Ohh, I understand.
I just thought "uniformity" is somehow about "fractal" among timeframes but no, it's the optimal parameter so that stoch is stable over the time.
Thanks!
