{quote} I did the same a few weeks back and didn't find any significance at the time - now I have my indicator similarity EA running, and what do you know... but the difficulty with just stoch mismatch is that it doesn't give direction or strength. I bet you can think of a few other stoch-based indicators you could run with it to triangulate...
If I understood eurusdd's explanation on the stoch mismatch, it's only to find price levels the market is likely to return to. Direction/strength would be gleaned from other indicators.

{quote} Nice work MC and thank you very much for sharing. Is it possible to make an indicator version of it too?
I never delved into indicator development (shame on me), though I'm sure I will at some point soon. I'm hoping someone else could do it for now.

I'd like to see the bar where the mismatch was caught; I don't know how to show that yet.

Tnx anyway. It's the thought that counts. You have a good heart.

On my chart at the moment, the current price is close to the price where the stochastic mismatch was detected.

The reason nothing shows for you yet is probably that only equal stochastic values across the timeframes have been detected so far.

As you can see, the chart also shows the Transient_Zones and the Symphonie Extreme Indicator v2 (refreshfix).

As the action progressed after I started my EA and attached the other indicators, I could have taken the indicated buy for small pips if I had entered low enough. The market did indeed move up to the stochastic mismatch price level of 1.27141. This is small potatoes of course.

Sorry, I wasn't clear - I didn't find any significance with regard to how long before return, how far before return, or whether a return after X points/Y time was sufficient to call the condition satisfied.

Another note on this, I have an action to myself to revisit the math of the stochastic and, I hope, gain a deep understanding of what it means when there are mismatches across timeframes.

Any, I just noticed that a new stochastic mismatch value is appearing. My code has a bug. Will fix and upload later.

Hi MC, thanks for the EA. I loaded the SEI indicator , and activated live strading like any other EA. I noticed that the wormhole EA does not have a smiley face like others. It does print out Distortion exist once a while .

About half an hour ago I noticed quite a flurry of stochastic mismatches.

Those who have experience watching the stochastics -- does a long series of mismatches every tick have particular significance?

Thanks,
Bob

No smiley but it's working, hmm, don't know. Quite a few versions of MT4 have passed me by since last time I was very active with MT4, so I'm not fresh on that stuff. Happy that my old code seems to work, though.

I did watch it for a while and couldn't figure it out by itself. There could be long periods of mismatch as well as periods of just a few ticks. One didn't seem to be more significant than the other. However, keep in mind I was looking for very small moves to trade very often. I might trade 20K trades/day/pair on my main program some days... so I was looking for something similar here but with better W:L. I conclude that I didn't fully understand it, or my expectations were wrong, since looking at it historically, the mismatches seem to jive with other entries/exits I had seen via other DS methods (much longer term and bigger moves).

Hi Bob,

I have not really spent much time with comparing stochastics of different timeframes as the thread was developing quickly at the time and Eurussd introduced other methods that were more efficient such as the STOCH/BB method. This is where price was configured as a (1EMA close) to mirror a stochastic with a X,1,1 setting and a Bollinger band on both. This effectively meant that the stoch mirrored the price above. This is also the same as taught in the thread The 3 plan http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?p=7095392#post7095392

What I observed in the above settings is that mismatches often occur as follows (it may also apply to the Stoch mismatches across two tfs)

1. Stoch has a limited range so mismatches often occur when Stoch hits the 0/100 levels. This often happens during trending moves.
2. Also noticed that you often get mismatches around the 50 level on some stoch configurations:
3. When there is a high volume of tick moves

The above may also apply to comparing Stochs across different timeframes but as I mentioned we moved on quite quickly from that method to others.

Hope you find the above useful.

Regards

PS. Enjoying the renewed enthusiasm you are bringing to the thread. I have a feeling you are going to find some very interesting things.
