Applying default BB, selling upper band 1st touch and close at lower band 1st touch + buying lower band 1st touch and closing at upper band 1st touch would get us around 1720 pips. Not bad. {image}

{quote} Hi abokwaik, Thanks for the many ideas in the thread. One way of simple filtering this BB/ZZ (or any similar method) could be to only take the trade along the stronger push of the previous two. In other words, take the buy signal only if the previous up leg was longer than the down leg. Only take the sell signal if the previous down leg was longer than the up leg. The famous "turtle traders" had a similar rule to not take the trade opposite to the previous successful trade. This trick ensures that one always trades with the trend, trying...

Hi Khalil, I have a question, but I am not sure this is the right place to ask, but I am going to ask it anyways. I would appreciate it very much if you could help. I trade mostly index cfd's, and sp500 cfds get a lot of gaps during quite hours, where Dow does not miss bars much. I am trying to match the exact bar times of both indexes and do some calculations but unfortunately I couldn't succeed. Currently using the following line of code to match bars, but unfortunately when there is a bar missing it just brings up the nearest bar, which is not...

{quote} What do you want to fill in the buffer ? You're saying that Dow (FXPair1) does not miss bars much, while SP500 (FXPair2) does. but you code is trying to read Dow Close price on a non-existent SP500 bar !

{quote} Thank you for trying to help. I want to make sure that each sp500 bar time matches exactly with Dow bar time... So if there is in minutes, 1:05, 1:10, 1:15, 1:20 time stamped bars in Dow and only 1 bar in sp500, say 1:15. I would want to match only the 1.15 stamped bar and skip the rest.. and I want to do the following ratio calculation: SDCDBuffer = iClose(FXPair1, NULL, iBarShift(FXPair2, 0, Time, false)) / iClose(FXPair2, NULL, iBarShift(FXPair2, 0, Time, false)) This logic is exactly like you basket offline script. Your is geometric...

SDCDBuffer[i] = iClose(FXPair1, NULL, iBarShift(FXPair2, 0, iTime(FXPair2,0,i), false));

{quote} OK, I think you should replace the Time[i] function to iTime(FXPair2,0,i) SDCDBuffer[i] = iClose(FXPair1, NULL, iBarShift(FXPair2, 0, iTime(FXPair2,0,i), false));

{quote} Thank you. So would that change make sure that all time stamps would match the other pair's time stamps?

for(i=limit; i>=0; i--) 
{
   int x=iBarShift(FXPair2, 0, iTime(FXPair1,0,i),true);
   if(x>=0)
      SDCDBuffer[i] = iClose(FXPair1,0, x);   
   else 
      SDCDBuffer[i]=0;//or EMPTY_VALUE
}
