Anyone have any idea why backtesting for certain session indicators (especially sessions) doesn't work? Using the Xi-Sessions 1.00. For certain pairs it's able to go till 1 year back, some it goes 3 months. Or anyone has a decent session indicator to share? Daily_lineboxes doesn't work for me as it doesn't display Friday's data properly (due to broker's time) {image}

Could the experts on this thread guide me if this ABCD pattern Fib indicator is working the right way in detecting ABCD pattern. I found it on the web and implemented on my AU chart. {image} Indicator attached below: {file} Regards

MrAuusieFX,

When you try out that indicator, you can verify how it draws the ABCD using these attached pdfs as reference.


regards,

EMMANUEL

Thanks for the file, but I'd actually like boxes around the sessions where I can see the pip numbers too.

I took GU pull back bar on the break of previous candle. Now I'm curious if I should close it before news hit in 5 minutes or so...?

Hi Bullet Having read most of this thread now Big E was certainly committed to help his fellow traders.Also now many of his benefactors have carried on that tradition for which we are thankful I would also be interested in the mt5 version of TDI Gil
Hi Gil,

These are the files needed, the Statistics.mqh file has to go into the MQL5\Include folder, it is used to calculate the Standard Deviation for the Volatility band middle (yellow line). The TDI.mq5 goes in the MQL5\Indicators folder.

Let me know if you have any issues.

You're definitely doing the right thing, I took a few losses and breakevens because I was forcing a trade in a ranging market... Nothing I can't fix, but still enough to bring you down a bit, depress you.

Market has been choppy all week. Is this because of the lack of the news? Should I short Grivna? Really bored.

Hello All,

I have been watching this forum for about 6 months now, and to be honest, this is my first forum entry, ever, anywhere, so I'm not sure I'm even doing this right.

Having said that, I see a few pages back that a few of you veterans of this forum are experimenting with channels and applied geometry built about those channels.

I wonder if these videos about "squaring" your charts will enhance your resulting experience, and I also wonder if it's O.K. to put these links in this forum in the first place? If I am violating any protocol, please advise me immediately and as to any remedial action necessary on my part.

The first video (I have NO association with the creator of these videos) seems to show a simple way to "square" your chart, so that you can apply geometry to a chart that has equal X-Y alignment. This process is analogous to my tireless hours of working with old 4:3 video pixels and editing with the then newer 16:9 pixel ratio, which was a nightmare 15 years ago.

The second video shows how you can apply 45 degree and 315 degree lines to candles for a mesmerizing study on reversal pattern forecasting. If anyone out there in orbit knows how to decide on the factoring/division (do I multiply by 2? Do I divide by 4... etc.) please feel free to share your ruminations.

By the time market gets better I am gonna go through my notes. I believe Big Em won't mind If I share two indicators I found which seems to be very helpful while trading.

1. Pipsomter: shows you how many pips your current trade is making
2. Candlestick patterns: Which I am trying to figure out myself shows the candlestick patterns on your chart, see image below.
