ES, can I get that info too.... thx

Note that I am more comfortable waiting for a long setup than going short. I went back a few posts to find out the reasoning behind this trade and it was mentioned that "it is still a valid short ... based on the agreement of the daily and 4hr CR". I think although the 4hr CR may seem in...

fwiw, I wouldn't add in just as yet. Plot MACD12269 on the Daily. Looks like a typical MACD cross of the center line. However it shot straight into overbought territory, high band. Similar to previous moves on April 4, July 4, Jan 4 and surrounding areas. Here is what I would do. Wait till MACD...

Here's a stupid question. When I made the Demo trades I ignored the swap cols because I had no clue what it was. Over the days the numbers became larger so I googled and realized they were the charges to close and reopen. According to Oanda, this process is not necessary anymore. Still not sure...

yeah, I had a DEMO short on EURAUD and a DEMO long AUDJPY. Just learning the ins and outs and language of Fx trading. Best way to do it is jump in. MT4 is really nice and if I could get a reputable broker attached to MT4, I'm in.

so is it safe to assume that a trade takes place if: 1. DeMarker < 0.05 or > 0.95 on the 4HR 2. Take trade in the direction of CR if Daily and 4Hr agree. 3. ?

I'm still not too sure of your entries. Are you now not looking at the 5 min DeMarker at all? Or the maturity of the bend?

Absolutely, go ahead rjb. I knew there was something off but just guessed it was an MT4 thing where old values wouldn't repaint. I've been deleting the indicator and redrawing it simply because I've had no time to investigate it. Sorry should have caught this sooner, just had to prioritize WL...

lol, didn't think of it that way, now can't get the highway image out of my head.

No Problem (on all counts), this has been an amazing learning experience to say the least...and trading hasn't even begun! Give this a try...

Good, looks like its V1B as per the header in the source. Good thing to remeber from now on is to look at the header and or the downloaded filename and not the indicator name... ok, how are these settings? changes: solid line for center. wider dashed lines for fibs (so they don't look...

Right click on the indicator and let me know its name to make sure we are talking about the same version...

and the only change you want is a default to 382?

what version or filename are you using currently?

ES, not too sure what you mean by start date. The indicator should start x periods from the last bar always. i.e last bar - 299 bars. It should be dropping the first bar and adding the new bar for all calculations. If its not doing that than it is flawed and maybe something in the code is missing??

grrr, #%$!. Looks like its a dead end for me! After all this work of setting up new indicators and new datasources I can't proceed. While trying to write the indicators to file on different timeframes for some meaningful backtesting, I got an "out of Memory" error and of course a crash. Digging...

I see you've made some minor adjustments to your methodology. i.e. you are now also including agreement of the CR in the 4HR time frame. Another point, you've mentioned that the 5minute demarker is used for all entries across all timeframes but it would seem that you now will use the demarker in...

Sorry ES, been googling for a while still no luck on rescaling the price window through code. Min max values can be read but still haven't seen anything that will set it (other than manually)...

crap. Timezone is great but not enough pairs to do some testing. Funny thing is that both sets of historical data backfills come from metaquotes and are still missing different data points in each. MT4 must use trades as their price tick (since some bars are non existent) while IB uses midpoint...

MM, you're a life saver! At first glance it looks great... will update.
