Moved my stop to 1305.25. 5 min CCI crossing downward. 30 min CCI still in buy zone. Don't see any reason to lose money on this trade if it comes back down.

Long 1305.00 stop at 1302.00

New low is at 1302.25 so new stop will be 1302.00 unless taken out this bar. 5 Min CCI is still above the average so I'll go long after this bar unless a new low is formed. Last trade of today from long side if stopped out.

Low is below yesterday's low, so if stopped out in this next buy, then I'll be done with this method for today.

Long 1305.50 stopped out already. Now wait for new low to stop. -.75 on the trade

30 min CCI is in buy zone. Already have a crossover from yesterday. Low so far is 1305.00. If this bar doesn't go below it, I'll be going long at 8:40 CT. Stop loss will be 1304.75.

Here it is:

Today, the filter of not taking trades above the previous days high cost us the opportunity to make some money. Would've been stopped out on a couple of trades but the last one would've made about 10 ES points. It's amazing to me how the market just can't seem to hold a trend. I hope we can...

I'd rather work with the flawed one for now (since that's what I used to come up with the method). Later I can make the changes and use the corrected plots. What can I do to get it to agree with the flawed plots?

Yes, but the trades are practically non-existent. The divergence method was designed to find the end of a trend. The problem for more than a month now is there hasn't been trends. I think the last trade was in Feb. Just a couple of years ago I used to get at least one trade per-day with this...

I tried the code and it doesn't seem to capture the trades correctly. Here's the screenshot from last Friday. The buy is one bar too late and the exit shouldn't have happened because the 30 min was in buy territory. I don't know why none of the earlier buys were missing. Just something to...

Thank you for the code. I converted it to TS2000i. Attached is the code in 2000i format for others to try.

I haven't tried your variant. I coded the first part and yes, your analysis is correct.

Trade was stopped out. Since we're probably done I'll summarize: 1 trade -1.75 Total trades this month 1 Total profit this month -1.75

As of the 9am CT bar I have 30 min CCI at 100.65 and 30 min. Ave CCI at -6.55. If you have some code even in 8.1 I'd love to work with it. My attempts have been poor. I can translate the code to 2000i and check the trades with my statements for March. If they match I'll post the 2000i code...

5 Min CCI crossed below average and 30 min is in overbought. I'll track this trade, but won't be putting money on it. Stop would be at 1312.00 Short at 1310.25 If stopped out, this will be the last short of the day since the stop point is above Friday's high.

The 30 min CCI has moved to overbought, however I see a large spread between the average and the 30 min. CCI. In the past, this usually meant a breakout trade. So if the 5 min. CCI crosses anytime soon, I won't be going short.

mechtrader, can you post the easylanguage code as a text file? I'd love to be able to run some backtests but haven't been able to get the same trades as the ones I take live. I've got lots of ideas and if you've got the code I don't mind testing them all and posting the results. Afterall...

I tried to refresh my data from Globalserver but it justs gives me the same data and doesn't give me the first 10 min. of Friday's trading. Says it downloaded fine, but no changes in the data are seen. Seems like a waste of time, so I give up. Will continue with the thread tomorrow as the...

Well, it looks like another round where everyone looks at the same market with different software setups and has different results. Gotta love this game. I looked at the 30 min. discrepency. Yes, it exists. I plugged all the CCI(20) numbers for the past 15 periods into excel and tried to...
