More simple is impossible

Hi Jaquemate

A man after my own heart..... I've been screaming at anyone who wants to listen, price can only go up or down,its not rocket science. It looks like your Renko/hieken Ashi charts tell us exactly that. Couldn't get any simpler could it?? Whenever you get a colour change enter in direction of new colour??? EG red to green = buy, green to red = sell??

Sounds like a fairly simple system to me....

Bit like the old trading adage "Sell when price is going down and buy when price is going up..."

Audusd. The same principle. In this case taking the trade agree with daily trend. {image}

Having traded one minute charts for a while I haven't found following the direction of the daily much help. Sometimes you're get a 100 pip counter daily trend move. Don't forget 1 min charts create all the others. Rather than take the direction of the daily trend just trade in the direction of the 1 min trend. Just follow the momentumon of the 1 minute chart or whatever timeframe you're trading. Following momentum, which means follow the longer leg, so if the red leg is shorter than the previous green leg, then buy ... If the green leg is shorter than the red leg then sell it...

Another way to look at is to sell LH's and buy HL's...

Basically still trading with the trend....

Now you can add some indicators..... oscilators...... for lose money. Or you can accept that trading is so simple. Yes. In previous chart i taked 13 entries. 8 winners, 1 BE, 3 lossers. 205 net pips only in this cross and only today. With no indicators. Only daytrading. Buy sell, sell buy. Simple entries. Now imagine that yo can do in another crosses. Anyone can tell me when you take this entries only looking this HA chart?.
Jaquemate, I don't want to rain on your parade, but I hope you do realize that for EURJPY it was a good trending day and most of the days are not like this one. That's why people asked you how long have you been trading this "simple" way, and still are waiting for your answer.

The same chart. More easy to look. I think. {image}
Well Jaquemate,

With all respect this what you showed here is not going to be just like that....Today on eur/jpy was really easy PA,but what when range and choppy days come....??

It can be real dangerous to claim such statements especially to newbies,and you didn't even pointed out some rules regarding SL,TP and that stuff...

Please be more serious about trading as many of new traders could learn wrong and lose time...

Regards!

Apply EA to 5M chart.
Open "offline chart"-2M.
5M chart must remain open with EA applied.

Thanks for that but still no luck , there doesn't appear to be a -m2 chart created when I look at "Open offline" shouldn't it be there created by the EA???

Step-By-Step:
1-Open UJ (or other market) 5M chart
2-Drag & drop EA onto 5M chart (from EA folder) ***Make sure it's in EA folder & not in indicators folder.
3-Change brick size to 5
4-Open "offline chart"-2M UJ

Not sure what the problem is.
When you drop the EA on, is the "Renko Time Frame" set to "2"?
Other than that, not sure what to try.

Use the script Price_converter (or Timeframe_converter, or Period_converter dont know). You can find it in the scripts folder (below Accounts, Indicators folder. in navigation view).

Drag it to EURJPY M1 chart, in the settings, choose 2 (2 min). Wait a few seconds. It will tell you in the experts tab (ctrl+T) that the job is done.

Then the EURJPY 2M will be available.
See you at Valinor!

If you dont have an EURJPY M2 period you can use a period converter script, Google it or here at FF, copy it to your mt4 script folder, drag it into your EURJPY M1 chart, select 2 as period and go to offline chart selector now you will see EURJPY M2

Good luck all

Clive check that your Renko is in the experts folder.
Then open the 1 minute E/J chart attach the expert to the 1 minute chart. Set box size to 5.
Then go to open charts offline.
Find the E/J M2 and open the chart from that. Then attach the HA indi to that chart.
All works for me.
My picture has E/J M3 because I'm using constant range bars on the M2 setting!

Note this is not a 2 minute chat. Its a renko chart ie bars only change based on a 5 pip move. Nothing to do with time whatsoever...!!!

Hi,
Nice simple system you have there.

Clive,
To get Renko EA to work make sure you have 'allow ddl imports' ticked in the properties box,
I got it working on a 2 minute, 3 minute or a 6 minute time frames but for some reason I'm not getting the 5 minute.
Good Luck.

Hey thanks guys for all your suggestions and help, but unfortunately still no luck, tried the change period script and got a lovely 2 min chart available but still no renko. I'm not sure its running on my platform for some weird reason because no matter what I do its just not been created in the offline chart box...

Oh well never mind will have another go tomoz...

Off to bed now gotta be up early for the LO...

Thanks again guys

Hey I got it, anyone else having problems it was the "Allow DDL inputs" ticked when you first drop the EA on to your chart...

Thanks everyone but in particular Pipernet, spot on...
