Sorry Matrix, I can't help you with txt email via gmail. They are all different. I use Charter Cable, and I have used fastmail.net successfully in the past. I would google "how do I received text messages from my computer using gmail". Or go to one of the Platform Technology forums and ask the question. The guys on the "Iwill code your indicators and EA for free" forum have always helped me out when I was getting started.

{quote} Thanks Ryder. I think the indicator is good as required. i need to ask another noob question - how do i set the email alert? i use gmail so i put "smtp.gmail.com" as the SMTP server, login i put my email and password my pw... what do i need to put for the "From" and "To"? i tried test but doesnt really work. i have yet able to code an indicator/EA, tried but cant seem to troubleshoot. I do know someone who is able to code a profitable EA using grid trading.. though i never see his actual results before, i believe it works.. i do wish i can...

no worries; i think i managed to troubleshoot it; just need to put my email as "from" and the other email under "to". initially i was just putting my name.. and i will go to that thread if i decide to go back to try coding again!

as mentioned above, just use smtp.gmail.com, under "from" put the email you login with; under "to" put the email you want to send to. you might need to restart your terminal before trying. And there is a lag.

as for my trades, you can check out my previous post or my trade explorer.. no trade currently.

is there going to be a trade on Au? Possible if price close below Kijun... Strictly speaking the entry candle should open above and close below the Kumo.. Not so in this case

But given the rejection off 50MA (diff strategy), if price really close below Kijun, I will enter with a SL above previous wick, around .8160

Hi EasyRyder,

I thought of a variation to your indicator which you can consider. if we only depend on the indicator to send us an email when there is a signal and then we start to look at the pair, it might be a bit too reactive.

How about having an indicator that allow you to have a quick overview of the strength of the currencies based on the kumo. it can either be
1) table showing MN, W1, D1 for the rows and the various major pairs on the columns and using red and green to indicate below or above kumo
2) table showing H4 and D1 for the rows and various major pairs on the columns and using red for no possible setup and green for possible set up (higher timeframes all in line)
3) same as above and to include a value of the current kijun and kumo value.

with the above, we can easily set price alerts to alert us and allow us to more easily see the pair to see if there are any possible setups.

if you look at this setup, the setup was taken within the kumo.. if you compare that to one where the setup is below the kumo, this setup should be less strong because it doesn't pierce the kumo. and that's why the price is supported, for now, by the kumo

TP. but i apologise for my once again lousy lot sizing. it should be a 2.3% trade but I TP with just a 1% gain...and yes i miscalculated my pip value!

I should have traded with a 7 lot but i calculated it as 3.5 lots instead

Hello Matrix. Hope you are trading well. I trade a personal strategy for a living. In addition, I read the forums continuously always looking for a new idea or a greener pasture. It was with that spirit that I read your thread last weekend. What you are asking with a strength indicator is more than I have time to do at this time. It would be easy to mode an existing strength indicator to reflect Kumo if one had the source code, but it is not the time for me.

I will make a mode to the posted indicator after a few more days of testing by the forum. Good luck to you in your trading.

Hi EasyRyder, glad that you are trading for a living. That is my dream but still a far way to go.. I cannot overcome my psychology and that is one reason why I started this thread is to have some accountability. I want to get where you are.

[highlight=rgba(255, 255, 255, 0)]I understand that what you did is already beyond what u need to do. I really thank you for that and thus asking you to do more is really something extra[/highlight]

Hi Lucariga, thanks for Ur interest in my thread. As u say monthly is not below Kumo. It wouldn't be a trade based on my system. But if u decide to enter, you can enter with a smaller risk maybe. Make sure there is enough room to go.

I am using Oanda and it shows a nice pin bar with lots of rejection off the resistance. Nice setup but it doesn't fit the criteria of this system

For EURCAD, it is a long candle down based on my chart. Currently it has retraced. If you see next support and see enough room to go, you can enter on the retracement with lower risk. For NZDUSD, it is a setup... But based on my strength indicator, NZD is second strongest currency. You might wish to take note of it.

Hope that helps.

hey Petr. K, welcome! sure! u use ichimoku on H1?

i am using Oanda, so we might be seeing different charts. candle havent close though. and red line is my target but there is tough resistance. 120 seem like easier to go.

anw EasyRyder has created an indicator for ichimoku few posts back, you can see if it is useful for you

Both the Petr chart and the Matrix chart remain in the cloud, and both show a break of the Kijun. D1 is above the cloud, and W1 is above the cloud. Is that not a valid setup with the Matrix strategy? I think so. Please correct if I am wrong.
