indicators we use

[hayseed]

Hi, Hayseed.
Could you make a video how to do a multi-timeframes scanner for Optimization expert?

//----

hey fracero..... i'm not clear on what you mean..... the strategy tester itself is far better for the optimization of an expert advisor....

multi timeframe multi pair scanners like i have been takin about lately or more for finding current signals than optimization.....

they can also be used for data mining applications..... which is really my main use of them......h

Hi Hayseed, you are awesome. the EMA 34 Hi Lo is best combined with SnD strategy, we can filter out which zone is solid to trade by confluence factor. but i wanna know how do you set you SL and TP personally?

hey blackbell..... thanks,,,,

i use oanda...... now days here in the states using them, you almost can't use sl and tp unless all your orders are differing sizes.....

if you have two or more trades the same size they will not allow any targets on those orders..... they started this a few years ago.....

prior to that i would use multiples of the daily atr..... a variety of things set that multiple..... and it might be different for short or long.....

such as the positioning of large specs in the cot report..... as example, if the large specs were long the euro, my eurusd buys might have twice the targets of a eurusd short.... my thoughts were they might help push my buy up further than average.... and likely swat my sell......

it might be just my imagination, but seems success rate drops when i trade against them.....

what is a SnD strategy...... h

 

[hayseed]

i'll be going thru a very old laptop looking for anything that might be useful..... mostly just indicators for specific purposes.....

here is the bagovino bars..... bagovino had posted a system on forexfactory probably 15 years ago .....

maybe it will be helpful to someone.....h

something written for code works thread..... atr wave.....

creates a wave equal distance from a moving average using atr..... moving average periods is adjustable....

the atr's period and timeframe are adjustable..... the atrfactor is the multiple of atr.....

alerts non stop if price falls below or rises above the wave while alerts setting is true......

possibly of value to someone.....h

just occurred to me a fillbands true or false option might be needed.... just in case someone wanted the wave without the fill between......h

Thanks Hayseed

Can you share your settings my wave is much thinner than yours.

the settings to adjust the bands are the timeperiod and the atrfactor.....

my chart might have been the 60 minute but the atr band timeframe was maybe the 1440...... you can also adjust the band by changing the atrfactor..... setting it to 3 would triple the width......

should have made a video to explain..... i know things like that can be difficult to figure out.....h

hey wng..... finally had time to look for it..... tend to code a lot but quickly put it aside...... once it's put aside, it's a goner.....

needs the coppock curve, and qqe......

the symbols ride the alma..... you can easily change that.....

this was one of the many simple things i wrote for peyton when she was 4 or 5..... kids might have trouble understanding lines and levels, but give the colored symbols and most could out trade us......

they have not yet learned how to spell bias.....h

Your kids are lucky to have a great dad. Are those arrows on the second image related? Multiple diamonds on 2nd image are MTF? Thanks a lot!

Hi, just found you on forex factory. Is there any way to watch your Youtube videos? Do you still use Peyton wpr cci force?

hey bart..... will check and see if that's possible...... made those videos mostly for peyton to learn from....

all those were mq4...... when i moved to mq5, i changed to new computers...... so the code might be buried in a pile of laptops.....

we don't even have mq4 on the new ones...... might try to rewrite it in mq5 now you brought it up......

last week peyton made over 4 times what i did.......

kids are much smarter now days......h

It would be great to learn at least a fraction what Peyton does. Full respect and thanks for your time

for some reason the mq5 iforce calculation is different...... radically different......

unless i can figure out how to use the old formula, the force component will not work......

that indicator might be gone with the wind...........h



//----- mq4 iforce

 double val =i Force(NULL,0,13,MODE_SMA,PRICE_CLOSE,0);

//----mq5 iforce

int  iForce(
   string              symbol,            // symbol name
   ENUM_TIMEFRAMES     period,            // period
   int                 ma_period,         // averaging period
   ENUM_MA_METHOD      ma_method,         // smoothing type
   ENUM_APPLIED_VOLUME applied_volume     // volume type for calculation
   );

There is Force_Index.mq5 under Indicators\Examples\, which works the same as the MT4 iForce() - you can load it with iCustom and change the applied price if that's what you need.

hey enivd...... thanks....

yes that is what i was using..... the returned values seemed way high...... somehow got side tracked on the applied_volume input....... quickly followed by other mistakes.....

ended up in wonderland....h
