Hi Jibala Hi PipFlak Anybody does not want. Answer the questions give me . post 89 Thanks
Ahhamidz

There are no rules written down yet. I know what I know from reading the GVC dashboard thread from when Jibala first proposed the first relative strength dashboard. That is one of the things I didn't like about that thread too many things going on at the same time in too many directions and too many updates one after another with everybody wanting this and that -it is too confusing. Then all the 'I just want to autotrade people took over and it became a mess. I don't know myself how to use all the excel stuff yet the only thing I will be trading with right now is the speedmeter and the powermeter 3 dashboard because the currency meter matches the excel sheet exactly and V3Q doesn't.
If you download the Maria posts file start with the first link and keep reading and you will know as much as I do about the GAP.


This is where the whole Jibala inspired dashboard first started. http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...54#post8389454 Read from there on to learn Jibala's original relative strength strategy and subsequent evolution... it's a bumpy ride.

Hi, One file from xard777, http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...76#post8493776 Regards

Sure looks cool does it have Marias GAP theory built in and Nasap type flexi filters? If it does I want one.

Can you add this indicator to each individual pair as a flexi filter for the GAP synch? http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...70#post8533870

It is just the old school 'don't go in after a big candle' rule. It is based on average bar size and shows last bar and current size. It has an adjustable multiplier.

Sorry what I meant to ask is this doable?

Here is the latest excel. The previous version still had a calculation error in it for JPY. It treated JPY as main currency but JPY is always secondary currency so changed JPY calculation. Plus added Market Strength as explained by Jibala!

Edit: the signal of JPY is still wrong it has -5 now and says buy so seems I overlooked something. Will have a look later.
Edit2: this post now contains the correct file - adjusted the signal which was reversed by dtlase instead of changing the calculations so now everything is as it should be! please re-download the zip file for the latest version

Hier finden Sie die neuesten excel. Die Vorherige version hatte noch ein Rechenfehler in der es für JPY. Es behandelt JPY als wichtigste Währung JPY ist immer Sekundär-Währung so geändert JPY Berechnung. Plus Hinzugefügt Markt Stärke wie erklärt sich durch Jibala! Edit: das signal von JPY ist immer noch falsch, es hat -5 nun und sagt kaufen so scheint, dass ich etwas übersehen. Sehen später. Edit2: dieser post enthält jetzt die richtige Datei angepasst das signal, das war Umgekehrt, indem dtlase anstelle der änderung der Berechnungen so jetzt ist...

First question I have is without looking at charts how do we determine if this is a trend following or trend reversal/pullback trade?

I'm thinking we might need a go/no go dot or something for each pair so it only affects that pair but not the total currency calculation.

Also we have to figure out what the optimum market strength is and should this be part of the overall GAP synch flexi filter?

Coral and ASH filters for each pair might be good I think. Jibala use two of them I was told set to 9 and 17. Ash filters set for 1 hour same as HP dash.
After further experimentation the coral indicators on 9 and 17 work well.

Ciara SUP/DEM SR indicator works well and is in keeping with Maria rules. I set mine to 1H 4H and D1. Should probably make any SR criteria optional.

Note to those using the GAP Synch for entries: flexi filters have not been added yet and everything is a work in progress so be careful!


If you have any good solid ideas for a flexi filter please let your voice be heard. This is a community effort!

By the way a flexi filter is just a dynamic filter that adjust to market/pair conditions in case you didn't know.

When trading the GAP with charts can you still use ASH and coral indicators? Maria seemed to only use gap, BR, SUP/DEM S/R, adr range (I am not clear on her discussion with HP on that) and maybe RS ?

I only look on chart to analyze a trade. I don't need any chart for trading! All necessary information I get from dashboard with clear buy / sell signal (19 for today so far!).

Yes but you have all those nifty super duper nasap algorithms working for you. I am trying to figure what we mere mortals can use for flexi filters and when and how they should be used properly.

Thanks anyway. 19 is pretty impressive!
7 is more than I needed I don't want to get greedy and give it all back.

What about this one? Isn't it using "flexi" filters too?

Beats me we don't talk. I thought it was just a layout. Sure looks nice though.

This guy just subscribes and then unsubscribes. He has done this on several threads. Just fishing for other peoples ideas I guess.

Shouldn't the GAP on the GAP Synch be close to the one on Powermeter 3? GVC seems to be right on looking at the charts but the gap sych doesn't look right.
I think GVC nailed it on this dash although I question the trend dot sometimes. Wish I could figure out how to change the DO to London Open instead of the server zero hour. I changed it on my charts and I agree with Jibala as to this being the line in the sand for the LO and NYO. I am thinking though that Tokyo should have it's own since a lot of Asian pairs get their best moves during that time period.

I wish we could just modify the GVC dash. It already has most of what we need on it.

Which Dashboard of GVC's are you referring to. I think that he has graciously posted all the source so it should be modifiable. Right now I am running a couple of tests on his three versions
