Wow, that is a cute little strategy. It's almost a shame that someone showed you what you should've been doing.
Dont think like that

we create our own luck ... maybe you never saw it..

when the teacher is ready the student appears whatever

Create your own luck, that used to be my Sig.. thats all we're doing here..

I hear you bro,
And it feels good to seeing you makeit after all ...
I hope you 'll take this the way as I meant it (good that is...) but
If you believe in all that "when the student ready the teacher appears" and "we create our own luck" and all that Law of Attraction shit ... then maybe it should be part of any trading strategy.
So all I wanted to say is , it's nice to see you being a bit more relaxed and more eased than a few years ago.... And maybe JUST MAYBE that's exactly what brought you to the place when you met your teacher who got you to the place you wanted to get from the first place.
And of course thanks again for sharing !!
You feel real man,
Cheers !!

I would like to thank you for taking this time to share this, everyone will find something that suits their persona

Can I add to the thought with only when the student is actually ready to learn, the teacher will appear.

We all are students throughout our lives, there is "teachings" going on everywhere by everyone but we only tune into the things we want to, thats life

For trading, we all look at a lot of things, head off trying a lot of things, lots of knee scrapes through to car crashes, we pick ourselves up and either quit or come back to look at more

Then the aspiring trader becomes properly "ready to receive and learn", this is triggered over time, it involves internal factors (base beliefs, experiences, aquired knowledge..) and external factors (life events, people we meet/discover...). These two are complex area's and when they start to gel does the student become "ready to really learn".

This may be the AHA moment people write about, I don't know but this thinking is helping me develop

Well done Cindy for sharing, not everyone will be in the "ready to learn" moment, most will be in the receiving information moment

Cindy,

I am curious, i sense a philosophical/karmic twist in your trading life...If it's alright with you, could you go into the back story of how you met your mentor and what transpired?

Thanks

Cindy, one could potentially benefit from an anchored Donchian with a 38.2 and 61.8% autoplotted to follow with the pyramid.
Hi all,
Here is an improved version of the cindy_donch indicator that plots the relevant fib lines automatically.

A lot of useful input and more importantly, bug fixes from TradeFinder are gratefully acknowledged. And as always, thanks to Cindy for sharing the strategy.

The indicator is now much easier to use since one does not need to draw any lines beforehand. One just drags and drops the indicator and then adjusts the autoplotted vertical line to the correct bar position (if you are doing this on the weekend and have no incoming ticks, you may need to refresh the chart after adjustment: Right click on the chart and press Refresh on the menu).
For backtesting here is a possibility to draw the indicator on previous swings: set the UseTwoLines to true in the input. Then just shift the autoplotted lines where you want them on the chart.

Let me know if there are problems with the indicator (best by pm not to pollute the thread with bug reports).
If you were using the previous version of the indicator, it is useful to upgrade it to this one (there were bugs!).

Cheers,
k

I don't trade this anymore but this was the most successful creation I ever made myself (about 4 years ago now) after about 5 years trading I spent a good year or 2 crafting and tweaking it. In 6 months time I made 100% R.O.E which was good for me as previous systems I made seemed to always die with changing market conditions. This always stood the test of time So in the interests of sharing and boredom I'd like to offer FF something back after all the years of putting up with me This would suit hard working people with real jobs or more casual...
Can't wait for it. I have read ur posts in the past and i'm eager to read/learn ur system too.

Cindy, one could potentially benefit from an anchored Donchian with a 38.2 and 61.8% autoplotted to follow with the pyramid. Since I had a similar indicator coded, I could quickly modify it for this strategy. One uses it in the following way: Plot a vertical line on the bar of your initial entry. Double-click the vertical line to select it, then Right-click on it and select "Vertical line properties" Rename it to V1 Drag and drop the cindy_donch indicator. The DodgerBlue and Tomato colored lines will be the running Add Position/Trailing SL lines....
Excuse for my foul language.
This is a FUCKING GREAT IDEA!!!

Hi Cindy,

I summarize below my understanding on a few key points of your strategy, just to be sure I got it right. Can you please confirm or correct me?

So:

1. Fuel: we expect a strong reaction on the market when this level is hit

2. Turn: the 2nd entry is basically discretionary, there is no clear rule for it. It is based more on the PA, trader's experience, feeling etc.

3. Momentum reversal: here we wait to see how strong the pullback is. We do not add a new position at 38.2, but we wait until we consider that the market will resume the move in our direction and then we enter again @ 38.2. Here I have 2 questions:

a. the pullback is 90% of the initial move and then returns. Provided that it subsequently reaches 38.2, will we add the 3rd position?

b. the pullback is weak, only (say) 20% of the initial move, and then continues in our direction and makes a new low. At this point do we pass to the Mechanical Pyramid or we still wait for momentum reversal?

4. Mechanical Pyramid - we place all the time a limit order @ 38.2 when a new low is created.

Many thanks for your time

Yes! It automatically updates the fib from a given bar. In the next incarnation I'll add the alerts when price crosses the fib levels.

Oh cool... but seeing as people will be using diff timeframes and in different situations feom experience i would suggest an option to input an alert when the market is "x" pips away

just for a heads up

sorry for late reply ok

1) Spot on
2) I guess you could say the TURN is discretionary but it should be pretty obvious. You're just seeing your level having a strong reaction and bucking the trend... It's like a momentum reversal in itself where say the market has risen weaker than the fall (the turn).. You need to get a feel of the trend we are fighting against to make this assessment. But inherently it shouldn't be very discretionary.. if you're not sure, wait until you are
3) I can't quite make sense of your question but seems like you are confusing it... On the turn we added our second position.. We have our fib in place as it retraces... We add on the first touch of the 38.2% level so long as we are satisfied the momentum is in our favor. If we are not satisfied maybe after some more time passes we are and we still have the opportunity to enter. But yes this will be our 3rd position.

im a little but confused on a and b you might need to post a chart to clarify

lol that's right this was in my Wolf Wicked days lol =P what a benny But this is what your EQ should look like {image} Make no mistake this is a a gambling system, but a good one at that, and also a good one to test on a trade simulator. Like I mentioned earlier I used a trade copier and had 5 different broker accounts that I spread my money over so I didn't raise any flags with my brokers...
