Hi. Can anyone help me. I am looking at this thread for the first time. I am trying to attach the RSI Arrow Indicator to my charts that I found here: http://www.forexfactory.com/showpost.php?p=4127792 When I drag the indicator to the chart, it draws many arrows in the chart area instead of the RSI area. How do I move the arrows down to the RSI area and just have one row of 5 arrows? Thanks. FranksBiz
Franks,

When you open the indicator after selecting it, look at the INPUTS-tab first. You can select that it only shows details of your currency on which you have selected to trade. Even the TFs can be changed.

Scroll down to "Display Starts_X & Y and select where you want the Arrows to appear.

Actually very easy.

BTW, the 3-RSi has been well researched by LG and I urge you to get to grips with her settings. It works.

Success to you.

Hi guys and girls, I have a question regarding the 'Lawgirl's Trend Display v1.02.mq4' indicator. I've opened a RSI window and set the RSI to period 10. Then put the Lawgir's Trend Display indicator on to a CHFJPY H1 chart and set 'IndicatorInRSIWindow' to 'true' and 'RSI_WindowName' to 'RSI(10)', expecting the Lawgirl indicator to show trend direction arrows for the H1, H4, D1, W1 and M1 Time Frames. However, this is not the case: the Lawgirl Trend Display indicator only shows trend arrows based on the RSI period 3... First question: is this a...
Ronald,

How well versed are you in opening the indicator itself? If you select "Modify" after highlighting the name of the indicator, it will open up in Navigator and there you can change the indicator to do what you want it to do. Scroll down to Line 331/2 area and you will see the RSi-setting. Change it to 10 if you like, but my advice to you is to stay with 3. It has been well researched and traded with success.

If you still have a problem, come back to me and I will assist you.

Thanks Hercs.

Worked like a charm. I will study this through and try to work it.

Many thanks.

Hi Hercs,

sorry for my late reaction to your answer, I must have missed the forex factory email, telling me there had been a reaction to my question here.

In the meantime, I've developed my own little system (without the Law Girl's Indicator, actually completely without the RSI) and was busy testing it the last couple of days. It seems that no system works for everyone and I guess that has to do with both trader - and 'system' confidence (if there was an absolute mathematical way to trade forex profitably, it would have long been found by now, with all these intelligent people searching for it...). The thing with indicators is, at best, they can only give a 'heads up', because of the lagging issue (they all repaint on the current candle, 'till it closes - and some repaint even after that, which is a nightmare for 'back testers'). What seems to work best for me is watching price to break through a moving average on the higher time frames (preferably D1) and then look for entries on the lower time frames (H4, H1 - I don't like moving lower than that, because that raises the 'gambling' factor).

Of course, most indicators are based on moving averages, so in the end it all boils down to the same thing.

Your answer was very thorough, not something one writes down in 5 seconds, so I really thank you for that.

Good luck with your future trading!

Ronald

{quote} The only “weak point” in this thread is represented by those traders that (understandably) have not yet realized that beeing successful is simpler that it may appear. The only limits that WE HAVE are those that WE CREATE. Question #1 What am I trading for ? Question #2 what I want to be ? BE reasonably POSITIVE BE ALWAYS GRATEFUL LIVE IN THE PRESENT Success MUST follow. Failure is not in the system. Failure is in our mind.
Hi Withoutname,

contrary to most people (not only traders), I agree with you completely, I've even been playing with the idea of writing a book about it. Why this insight is not widely excepted is only due to the limited way of thinking we all get exposed to from the day we are born. This negative conditioning serves the system we're all part of, or better put, it serves the people who profit from it. Not into conspiracy theories, but my experience tells me that the herd is victim to widespread manipulation in all life areas (the medical realm is 'contaminated' with it, for instance, just look at the way medical science ignores and even ridicules phenomena like the placebo - and nocebo effect, spontaneous remission, etc., because it goes against their business).

It's no different in forex, but all this negativity should stay outside of our 'core being', otherwise we'll just create more of what we don't want.

Some time ago, I came across an interesting webinar recording from a trader who lost lots of money (and time), before finally discovering a well hidden 'secret' (yes, it's what the movie 'The Secret' talks about too, but the subtlety and beauty of the idea of 'like attracts like' is very hard to grasp for people who still believe that 'science' (will) hold all the answers, at least, as far as they don't know how ignorant science really is when it comes to answering life's questions - 96% of the universe(s) is missing and all science can do is classify this under 'dark matter' and 'dark energy' and get on with demonstrating what little they do know about life :-) True, from a technological viewpoint, we've come a long way, but people are still getting more and more 'sick' and this will continue as long as they keep believing we're some kind of machines, the way doctors (for instance) are trained to make us believe...

Here's the link to the video:
Inserted Video


Update: the above link is 'dead', meaning, youtube shows the message 'Video not available, we're sorry'. No further explanation (even the title - 'The Mindset of Successful Forex Trader' has been removed).

Anyway, for those interested in this theme, there's lots of information about it on the internet.

Good luck, everybody!

Hi Hercs,

I have been going over as much of this thread as I can. I’m looking for changes in strategy.

I notice a lot of mention to still using The Three Tap Trade (3 Tap H4) and The H1 4 Candle Breakout Trade (H1 4C BO) trade methods. I don’t see any more mention of the MONEYTREE or Scrutch's Method of Finding A++ and A+++ Trades. Are they still being used.

I also don’t see any current posts by lawgirl21. Has she given up on this method?

Thanks,

FranksBiz

Hi,
I'm using the RIS dashboard and am not sure if its working properly?
In this chart you see a strong uptrend in all TFS but dashboard shows otherwise?
Can someone please confirm if this indie still works. Many thanks.

3 Tap, you can draw as you wish... no real guidelines.

I can draw 3 tap on a graph which has already happened...

No show of 3 timeframes all showing south for that first USDCHF graph... plus the RSI at the end of the candle is of course in agreement with it... so only way to show it works correctly is a live video recording of it being done...

Don't know if you find it, but for late readers of the thread like me, the ex4 of the 509 version works with the last release of mt4, but keep only the ex4, not the mq4 source.

Yes, it would be better if the original thread starter rejuvenate the thread. Maybe some things have changed (added or removed) or maybe there's a new finding from her strategy.
Different/opposing ideas will make us learn and understand many things.

Well, I am a fan of LG and her indicator - see page 1 - But, apparently this has been an inactive thread since 2006.

Well, let's see if we can get Lawgirl's thread up and going again. Well, at least it will be a place for me to share my demo trades here on this thread and FF.

Here goes:
