Hello Am having some few compiling errors but in the mean time let me upload the working mq4 file. NB. No documentation yet. {file} Unzip and copy to indicators folder. Open the two new charts. Then drag n drop ETS_Dashboard v1.0.5a on one chart and ETS_Dashboard v1.0.5b on another chart. (The EA are heavy on one chart that's why separate them on two different charts). Then rearrange the charts and you will see something like this. {image} Thanks
Hi,

Can you please add alert option for M1 and M5 chart also for ets dashboard.That will be great help. So that if require we can switch it on.

Hi Bass

Am yet to see the Trend Following Wizards feed for the month but assume it should be a good result. I hope things are going well for you and Mrs B. Things are picking up a bit of steam on the trend front so hopefully the end of the year finishes strong. :-)

C., thank you for asking, things being doing great on both fronts, personally and trend following wise, i saw a bit of trend recovery in multiple assets and i finished strong on both June and July due to a monster trends on commodities.

I decided to widen my assets diversification and included more Indices, Commodities and some highly liquid Stocks CFD's and i was able to catch some really good trends in commodities and some nice range bound trades in indices ( Excuse me for using another strategy for range bound markets because the goal is to make money, so the right strategy for the right market type), the truth been told i entered the stocks arena in the worst time ever which is earnings period which lead to a wide whipsaw and day to day gaps in these charts and subsequently had some minor losses which lead me to stop immediately trading these instruments.

The CTA's had all their Trend Following profits from commodities the last month other than that all other markets are in range bound waiting for FOMC this month and the decision to raise rates, the dollar is losing ground this week on the expectation that the latest Job Report last week which came worse than expected will leave the Fed holding for September.

We have to be cautious about the Fed Decision as it can reverse the whole markets direction upside down, as a matter of fact i'm worry about a " buy the rumor sell the Fact scenario ( Or sell the rumor buy the Fact in the case of the USD) " here that the Big boys are ambushing us with, this whole USD weakness is not convincing me a lot so i'm scaling down my position sizing because volatility is around the corner and i don't want to be caught my pants down.

Other than that, may the trend be with you my Friend.

Best,
B.R.

Included is an example of a Range bound trade on the DX Futures.

Thanks for the update Bass. Good for you with respect to spreading your techniques and further diversifying your watchlist. I am currently thinking of doing the same and looking at ways mean reversion can complement my trend trading....so am crossing my fingers that something evolves in that direction.

All the best B . It is a damn shame you can't participate with me in some of the other threads but I always look forward to your posts.:-)

Wall Street is on a Brink of a Bear Market after the FOMC Rate decision and Meeting, S&P500 and The Dow are at an edge of a Big collapse, the Nasdaq is flirting with major Double Support, is it gonna be supported From here ?

Trend Following Wizards – July 2015

A strong up month for the Trend Following Wizards, which would take the aggregate performance just above break-even for the year if it was not for a strong down performer. Check the detailed results below.

Market Type Suddenly Went to Strong Bear with Normal Volatility

by Van K. Tharp, Ph.D.


Strong Bear with Normal Volatility by Van K. Tharp, Ph.D. Click here to resolve formatting problems This is not my normal monthly update but we rarely change two market types within a five day period. On Wednesday, August 26th, we are in a Strong Bear Normal market type. The market shifted into this type at the close on Monday August 24th after a 3.94% drop in the S&P 500. Over the weekend, I mentioned on my Facebook page that the market type had moved to bear and that the market could either plunge or just deviate quickly and go back to sideways quiet. Monday made it look like the beginning of a plunge, yesterday was inconclusive, and we’ll see what we get today. Either way, the bears are now playing.

http://www.vantharp.com/Tharps-Thoug.../748-bears.jpg


As of the close on Tuesday, August 25th, the S&P was down 9.64% over the last 100 days. We have had six straight down days and the change over the last six days was -11.17%. Normally when the S&P drops 10%, that’s considered bearish, but we did that and more in just five days.

Volatility has spiked up and it looks like my suggestion to buy the inverse S&P 500 ETF (SDS) or volatility (VXX) was a good one. Over the last five days, VXX went up 66%. That would have been good protection if your position size was big enough to offset your portfolio decline.

While I have no idea what will happen today or tomorrow (although I’d guess an up day is coming) or over the next few months (I guess the bear could continue), I think the strength of this move should give you a warning. Go to cash or at least hedge your portfolio.

Whatever you decide to do, think about the following story. Two woodsmen went into a trading post and saw a sign, "$20 bounty for dead bears.” These woodsmen knew a forest with lots of bears so they hatched a plan to get some. They went deep into that forest where they set up their tent and slept for the night. The next morning they woke up to a lot of growling sounds. One of the men looks outside and sees 100 ferocious upset grizzly bears. The other woodsman says, “What’s happening?” The first guy says, “We are going to be rich!”

Enjoy.
B.R.
