Detecting Fake Price Movements thread - Warning to Programmers

  • First Post: Edited 4:41pm May 8, 2017 2:39pm | Edited 4:41pm
I have to apologize that I have disturbed a valuable member here in forum.
In the thread about Detecting ... I posted a few links with my correlations indicators which I have published here in forum many years ago.
The next step would have been to post the CDI indicator, now I can not do that anymore ...

I know from experience that the calculation of the correlations are sometimes a problem for the programmers, and wanted to bring my contribution to the thread.
In one of my links e.g. i make remarks about wrong calculations that were even programmed into an EA.

Because the thread author banned me immediately after my posting, I also warn other programmers to help him, not to be banned too
The author is very selfish, has no idea about correlations and programming, and his only goal is to sell his system without knowing what it is.
Beware of such a scammer!
In any case, after nearly 10 years of activity in forum, the selfish man is the first who banned me from a thread, and he is also the first which I have locked. This is a lesson for me to not want to help any more unasked, this is dangerous

What just surprised me is that @Fernand has nicely posted an indicator that has nothing to do with the mathematical correlation, and he was not locked. But this is not fair!

Here are my links from the thread:

Here some other "sofisticated" indicators:

Or the "Spieler EA":

Two examples:

Each programmer can use the source code, test the CDI indicator for D1/H1 like in the documentation, and post it here.
I am only warning that there may be problems to post unasked the indicator in the above mentioned thread ...

My only problem with the CD indicator is that in the EURAUD example from the documentation, there are only 5 trades a year, and with an initial deposit of $ 10,000 you won $ 500 this time ...
Forget it, or make a better suggestion!

Thank you, SwingMan, for carrying correlations further.

We have both been here on FF for a while now. What Always works best is to be kind & share, for the benefit of all.

I avoid threads where the author states that anyone will be banned if you go off-topic. They really belong in the trading journals section IMHO. Anyway, I went over there and read the thesis in the PDF. I don't know if I am not smart enough to understand, but seems to me putting a MACD with the Histogram is all you really need to do. Am I missing something? I will not post this on the other dude's trading journal as I don't want to be banned for asking dumb questions.

I'm curious about the macd thing myself. However when correlating pairs, I believe it gets a bit more intense. I'm sure SwingMan has much more in-depth info, as opposed to simply using an oscillator.

I know the MACD does not cover all the thesis had explored, like eurusd to oil, but I would expect eurcad to give about same results.

Anyway, I am not really a MACD trader anyway. Just use it for reference these days.

Dear George,
Thank you for all free indicators and EAs that you made in these years and I follow you in whole this forum.
After several years that I couldn't make money on Forex, on recent months, I found your neutral hedge indicators and it help me so much and those indicators made me hopeful to getback my money.
neutral hedge oscillator is the perfect on pair trading strategy.
but on currency anyone need much skills.
I have just some question of these.
how we can make a contact ?
I'm waiting for your reply.
thank you so much.

thank you for your reply.
actually I could found best setting and other parameters to use neutral hedge oscillator for hedge on gold vs silver and I think for gold and silver I don't need any other things. its full okay.
but for the currencies I couldn't find best strategy with these indi yet. If it possible please help me more for currency hedge and how make basket that it can be profitable.

If you want to now more about my tests, I should say:
1- I tested 3 to 5 pair circle. for example: EURUSD, GBPUSD, EURGBP, ...
2- I tested 2 pair with high correlation. for example : EURAUD VS NZDCHF, ...
3- and at last, I write one EA that it find good enough deviation or variance between two pair versus some others for enter to position.
for example: this EA first check deviation between EURUSD VS GBPUSD, EURJPY VS GBPJPY, EURAUD VS GBPAUD & EURNZD VS GBPNZD and if all of them have more than 500 point deviation( hedge range), EA get buy or sell in the direction on indi signal.

these are my tests that I spend time on last year with this system.
But still these not enough safe and profitable.
I have many statments that I made and test with these.
I wana to know whats your idea for this strategy and how you use it or if I need to know or to focus on any other points please let me know.
Im eager for your opinion.
Thank you so much George.

I suppose you have the indicator(s) from Zeus-thread: https://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=85097

After my advice, players started their own thread where I posted some files: https://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=95721

I have also very little traded at that time, have no time and patience for trading... If you need files from me, please PM me what you need and your email address.
Maybe I have a few more on the computer because there are many years gone by...

Hi swingman, you did a great job helping people here ... Congratulations, the world needs more people like you!
Have you made an updated version of the "NeutralHedge Overlay_v4" indicator?
Because it has a gap between the pairs, a kind of repaint ...
Could you correct that?

@SwingMan

thank's for your job!
Can I ask you 2 questions ??

1- about indicator "NeutralHedge Overlay_v4", wich is the mathematical formula for calculating the threshold?

2- regarding EA "smDan Orders EA_v2" the "Buy" and "Sell" buttons do not work

Thanks

i compared several correlation indicators very carefully, in only one numbers were close to those in Mataf, what your opinion about this indicator?
